Second to last P-day...  Holy cow.  It was a good week.  We told you what happened last Monday already, so on to Tuesday.  We had a lesson with L-, and it was quite interesting...  We talked about temple baptisms, and whoever taught him that initially did a not great job because he thought that it opened a portal to the spirit world and bad spirits could escape...  Yeah, interesting guy.  After that we dropped by the laundromat and read some BOM with A- (girl).  We visited with S- in the rehab center after that.  He's recovering well!  He just wants to be walking again.  He's just as faithful as ever though! It's awesome! Then we helped the Chamberlain’s move some stuff from the garage into the shed!  Elder French and Elder Smuin came down to party with us there that night, and spent the night at our apartment! It was so fun!  We all took a peeps picture!  I'll have to get it from Elder Brown and send it.  Then they spent the whole day with us. Wednesday too!  It was especially great because they got to go to the Chamberlain’s with us again!  We taught B- that night.  We finished up the commandments.  He agreed to live them all if he finds out the Book of Mormon is true.  So we committed him to fast about it on Sunday, and find out if it is true.  

Wednesday morning we were supposed to help out with seminary , but we forgot to set alarms!  We showed up a half hour late...  Sister Hale said it was fine, and that we used our freebie day, but I felt so bad....  Sister Hale was really understanding though, it was great.  I love the Hale's so much!

Thursday was pretty enjoyable.  We ran to the Chamberlain’s early in the morning because I had forgotten some stuff there the night before, then we had zone district meeting.  It was a pretty fun day!  We mostly played games there.  Werewolf for trainer trainee meeting, then human foosball for ZDM.  After that I had brought scotch bonnet peppers for all the people that hadn't had them yet.  It was really funny, but also very sad.  I felt kinda bad after.  The Hale's took us to reindeer grill for dinner!  No they don't actually cook reindeer... Dad, I know exactly what you were thinking.  They got us some super good pizzas for dinner,  then we helped out with some of their moving preparation.  Unfortunately we didn't move any animals this week. It was really fun last week!  But I did find a massive spider.  No joke this thing was as big as my palm.  It freaked me out so badly... Ugh.  

Friday was cool.  We got our laundry done at the laundromat and did BOM with A-.  We helped Sister Chamberlain trim some trees after that.  It was a good time.  Then we had dinner with the Walter family.  Mom, if you were to have a third boy what would you have named him?  Because the Walter family have a Benjamin who they call Bennie a Nicholas no they Nick, then their youngest is named Alex, so it was always wired to hear them talk about Bennie, or ask him to do stuff for them.

Saturday was an off day for me.  I don't know why, I just felt weird.  We had basketball that morning.  Then we went to a family history center barbecue with Elder Summit and Elder V.  We ran over a snake on the way there!  Proud of me dad??  We had dinner with K- and J-.  It was pretty fun, we talked about Vivint and next summer, and also how they will be in Utah the 19th of June, so they want to come to my homecoming!!!!!  So cool!  They fly out the day after I do.  I started assembling all my things and getting out my suitcases that night...  Yikes...  Not excited about that stuff.

Sunday ewe got to teach primary!  It was so fun!  Brother Hale had to leave church early, so we got to take over his class.  The 5 and 6 year olds, so it was a party.  Then we dropped by A-‘s after church to unwind a bit, and pretty much all her friends came over they day, so we got to meet a lot of them.  We went to the Gardner’s after that because Brother Gardner is starting a missionary journal to keep a record of all the missionaries that served here, so Elder Brown and I were the first to sign it!  Then we had dinner with the Knight family!!  It was tons of fun!  There are so many people here I'm going to miss so much.

Today we went to the Jefferson Memorial and Ceasar’s house, and are just getting back home.  We have dinner with the Cheney family tonight, and then will probably hang with A- for a bit!  One more email then I'll see you guys!!  Love you so much!!!!
