Changes


Well hey hey! So we are in a huge snow storm right now! It started last night and hasn’t stopped, they are saying we could get up to 14 inches so ya we have about 7 now and it’s still coming down. So that’s cool. It will be fun to go out into it tomorrow, today is good cuz its pday so we don’t have to be out there.

Well ya lots of changes, we were right they took two wards and made one ward and two branches. Pretty crazy. Some people are upset about it cuz they have been in the Lakewood ward for ya know like 30 years (cuz everyone here is older lol) so ya that’s the excitement going on here. My area has gotten alot bigger. So ya but transfers are this next Thursday so and I have been here 3 transfers so I might be getting moved out of here. We will see what happens. I’m happy either way, I don’t really have a preference right now.

Man that’s crazy that Stewy is back. And about Chanelle, that’s cool, and Chris Pederson too lol that’s crazy. I didn’t know he was that old? Weird lol

Ya mom so that was a zone conference. lol and ya I eat alot of spaghetti, that’s a standard I think. So ya but as for what I miss I’m not sure I was thinking about that the other day actually and I want some good pancakes. I haven’t had good pancakes in a while. Or some nachos with homemade guac and salsa that sounds good too. But we get a fairly good variety out here so that’s good.

So that’s crazy Jace is here? There is..or was a diesel school in my ward, there is a younger member I’m close with here that goes to it actually. I might have to ask him if he knows him that would be crazy. Side note about this member that is cool, he served his mission with Jody Zimmer! They were buds on there mission kinda crazy right :) Well I better get going, but things are good here just lots of snow. lol Have a good week!

Snow in Colorado


Snow in Colorado. So we got some more snow last night, nothing too much, just like an inch or so. I think it’s mostly melted by now, but it’s still pretty cloudy and chilly. Hey, cool, glad you liked the pics. Ya so it’s a Casio Exilim. I think it’s like 9.5 meg or something like that. It’s pretty fun. So ya thanks for the advice. I really appreciate it. Ya things are good. I guess I’m hanging in there :)

Things around here are going good, still struggling with some new solid investigators. And this week there are rumors about things happening in the stake. The other ward we share the building with is hurting for membership and such, so word on the street is that they are splitting the Alameda ward (the ward we share the building with) into two branches! Then giving us the Lakewood ward part of their boundaries so our ward gets a few more members. So ya pretty crazy stuff, we will see what happens.

This week is also the primary program, the Lakewood and Alameda youth are combined cuz they are both small so we are all meeting together and I guess our mission president is coming as well so ya exciting stuff. I’ll fill you in on what happens.

So ya, things are good here, oh I bought a sweater at Ross the other day cuz I didn’t have one so ya, well I guess you bought it for me cuz I used your card. lol So thanks, it’s just what I needed, how did you know!? :) Have an amazing week!

Lakewood Colorado


October 14, 2009

Well another week gone by, as usual things are still good here in Lakewood (lol I feel like I kinda write the same things every week, I hope its not too boring) So remember how I said the weather was perfect? Well this last week has been way cold. We got our first snow about and inch maybe inch and a half and it didn’t get above 30 for two days straight. Pretty crazy. So there is one saying here in the Denver area, "if you don’t like the weather wait 5 minutes" meaning you never know what it’s gonna be like, cuz today it’s like sunny still, kinda brisk, but supposed to get to 66 so and tomorrow will be the same I think, so the weather is just kinda messing with us. So we are still tracting a lot here still struggling for some investigators. Oh man!! Exciting news so finally!! after about a year after Elder Perry came out with the 20 lessons, our stake is going to receive training on it! So that happens tomorrow, so all bishopric and auxiliaries and their counselors are to attend. So that is way awesome lol but... our bishop is going to be out of town tomorrow, so he won’t get the training, sooo hopefully everyone else gets pumped up about it and can get him on board with us. So that’s good.


October 7, 2009

Well hello! So things here in Colorado are going good, the weather is definitely changing that’s for sure. But for the last two days we have had the perfect in between weather. Today is sooo perfect, clear blue skies, the leaves are all orange and yellow and red. And snow on the top of the mountains and like high 60's low 70's. I’m loving it, it kinda makes me home sick though it reminds me of Oregon. But I guess it’s supposed to start getting colder by the end of this week so I will have to enjoy it while it lasts.

So today was temple Wednesday so that was cool, every first Wednesday of the month the Denver metro area you get to go to the temple so that was awesome as usual. I got to go in the same session as Elder Bragg. I sat right behind him to make sure he didn’t fall asleep lol. He just came back to the metro area like last week so I haven’t seen him in like 6 or so months so that was fun to get to be with him and fill each other in on what’s going on at home and all that.

I sent you guys a letter yesterday, so you should be getting that in the next couple of days. I sent a SD card with a few pics and videos on there. You will probably need to transfer them all over to the comp to see the videos so ya. That should be fun :) well that’s all I got going on here hope everyone is good and having a great week love you all!

September 30, 2009

Well yup it’s another pday. Things are still going good here in Lakewood, Colorado. Wow I totally didn’t even recognize Lone Pine, that’s so crazy. It looks really nice now. And ya I did hear a little bit about the fires those pics you sent didn’t work though I don’t know I’m kinda short on time but I’ll have to try to check them out later. I also heard about the flu in Medford? There is this phone number you can call called "tell me" and they give like top stories nationwide and some missionary listened to it and it talk about Medford on there. Pretty crazy. So what’s up with that? Well ya not too much new here though, we are really trying to focus on the 20 lessons in this district and most of the zone too. Trying to get ward leaders behind us on that. So that’s what we have been doing. I think we are making progress so that’s good. But ya things are going pretty good. Just trying to work hard and be happy :) Have a good week.
