Beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

This was a great week. First of all I went on exchanges and this time I went to the other elders area. I went with Elder Viatia who is from Tonga. He is such a great Elder. We had dinner with the smiths who is some random member in their Ward but he served a mission in Seattle. Come to find out his mission president was Grandma Hanks. He pulled out some pictures and there was good old grandpa Hanks such a small Mormon world. He told me about the first thing they did and that was go to the mission office and have waffles with ice cream. He still thinks that waffles and ice cream are greatest thing together.

As we have been out riding our bikes and also walking around there have been more and more Christmas ornaments. They have HUGE blow up santa's and other things along those lines. It's weird because this week was a lot warmer than last week so it doesn't feel like Christmas at all. Especially since we can't listen to Christmas music and no snow. But it's all good because I have realized what the real meaning of Christmas is and I would rather be out here than snowmobiling at bear lake and doing all of that other worldly things.

This week we had no investigators at church again. Jamie one of our progressing investigators dropped us so that was a dagger but we will move on with faith that God will put people in our path this week to teach and get to church. Joe Tolman our only progressing investigator now will be out of town every Sunday this month and a lot of next month so he won't be coming to church for a while. He wants to be baptized and knows that he needs to be but the only hold up is that he is scared his wife will kick him out of his house.
