Dear family and friends,

          This week has been pretty good. We got to see Jessie and Nick this week and we had a lesson with them after church. We taught the Plan of Salvation with them and we set the both of them for baptism on March 3rd because they plan on getting married in about mid February. We also saw Damian and Chardonay this week, our two kids that we have. We watched "Finding Faith in Christ" with them, their grandma, and their mom (who usually doesn't sit in on the lessons). We also got to see Michelle Padden this week and we also taught her the Plan of Salvation. She had a little more questions about Adam and Eve/our purpose on Earth, but we answered them the best that we could.

          We had a long service this week where we helped Bro. Schwab (our ward mission leader) and his wife move to their new house. We spent nearly all day on Friday helping them (they gave us lunch and dinner) and also about half of Saturday we were helping them transport things. Their new house is in a tiny airport community called Sun Valley Airport (a little farther away, but still in our ward boundaries) where the runway is right behind the houses and everybody there owns a plane and a garage big enough to fit one. Except they aren't pilots, so they just use the huge garage for storage space.
          That's cool that you got to talk to Bro. Manuele this past week; that was probably really fun to get together with a friend that you haven't talked to in years.

The picture of the Elder on the boulder that I sent from last week was Elder Salisbury in our district. And there really aren't that many boulders where we are in Bullhead, it was just where we were, there were drawings on the boulders. It's usually just flat desert land with a few hills here and there and mountains in the background.

          We had a couple exchanges this week and they were both pretty good. We've been trying to find more people to teach as of late, but we haven't had too much success. I guess we should just be thankful for the few people that we do have. I know this letter is a little shorter than usual, but other than that, there hasn't really been a whole lot going on this week. Have a good week and I'll let you know if I need anything.


I love you!
