Happy 2 years?
Hello everyone. This week has been awesome. Been seeing a lot of people, saying a lot of goodbyes, and trying to find others to teach! Haha. We went to the olympic training center on pday, it's pretty cool. Got some rad pics haha. But the definite highlight was sunday! Had church, bore my last testimony, then went to pueblo for Rain's baptism! Yay!! It was so awesome to see her finally get baptized! Afterward visited the Stanberys, then had an openhouse for myself and the senior couple that are leaving this week as well. It was awesome! Anyway I can't think of anything else so I will leave it at that! See yall in a couple days!! Take care God Bless!

Hello everyone!
This week has been awesome! We had a baptism this weekend, I've been working with him since september so it was amazing to see him finally get baptized! Haha. We had a good old time hanging out with the other elders in the district last pday, we got a referral at a sonic that we had lunch at! Awesome!! Haha. We did exchanges this week and I got to see some familiar faces as I was working in 18th ward again! Haha. Pretty sweet. That's basically it that I can think of, the pinnacle was definitely the baptism!! Good times! Well I love you all God Bless!

Hello everyone!
This week has been pretty good! I have my entire district huddled around me as I type this! Haha. We have a baptism scheduled for saturday, things are going great with it! We're super excited for it! It's gonna be awesome! Yesterday a family took us to a chinese buffet so I got some sushi and soy sauce mixed with wasabi and of course, I made the soy mix splash and go all over me. It was awesome haha. Turns out wasabi kinda burns when it's on your cheek haha. Everyone had a good laugh at my expense haha. Otherwise not a whole lot of super awesome stuff this week, just your normal week! Anyway love you all God Bless!

This week has been awesome! Had interviews with President, it was pretty cool. Talked about my mission experience and a little bit about why I served where and whatnot. Friday was a zone training meeting as well as exchanges. Good times with the zone leaders! And of course, baptism on saturday!!! We played some around the world as the font filled, epic. Haha. It's been super cold and snowed a little last night so that was cool! Oh, we've been practicing to beat a 4 year old at a bible trivia game, it's pretty rad haha. Anyway I love you all God Bless!

Happy 22 months... Lame!
Hello everyone! Hope the christmas season and spirit has taken hold of you and just blasted into overdrive!! This week has been awesome. Been working on my lighting engineering skills, so far no fires but time will tell haha. We had a mission conference this week with Elder Steven E Snow of the Seventy speaking to us, it was awesome! We talked about conversion, getting the ward involved in missionary work and what we can do to continually teach. It was a way good time. The best moment of all tho was the fact that Beehowser, Elder Bredthauer was there!! Yeah buddy!!! I miss that kid! Haha. We had everyone laughing as we told our epic stories of what we did in pueblo haha. I bought him a tech deck and he started playing with it there haha. Helped a few families move this week and one of them lent us another christmas tree, so now we have two that we really can't fit into our apt haha. It's gonna be sweet!!! haha. That's about all the epic stuff we did this week, except for had a cool experience with visiting someone in the ward who had been talking to his friends a few days before about the church. We showed up on a whim and it was definitely the spirit having us stop by and get to know him. It was awesome. Anyway love you all take care and God Bless!

Pics!
Beehowser with his new techdeck! RIDE IT EVERDAY!!

Hey everyone!
Happy Thanksgiving! Hope everyone enjoyed turkey and what not! It was definitely fun! We watched on thanksgiving Tangled and Brave, it was awesome! I for the first time tried smoked turkey then deep fried turkey! Both, are awesome! Played in a turkey bowl in the morning, and had a good time. It was just a blast. Luckily we had 4 people who invited us over, we didn't even make it to everyone's house haha. On friday we started getting into the christmas mood! Christmas music, lights were going up, all the good stuff. We helped put some lights up at a member's house it was a blast! Now I can say I'm excited for christmas! Anyway I love you all take care!

Hello everyone!
Man I love the fall! It's starting to tease of it being christmas season and all that good stuff! I'm so excited! This week has been pretty good. Had some cool stuff happen this week. Met some new people through members, they were in need of help moving so it was fun to help out. We got a sweet new chair which required us rearranging our entire apartment haha. It was sweet! Had a little bit of snow and it disappeared quickly haha. That's nice. The district is being all sorts of messed up, they closed out the other companionship and put 18th ward into my district, which means I can go on exchanges in my old area!! Yeah!! Haha. Anyway not much else to report on so love you all God Bless!
