Well to answer….
1. Random question but do you wear sunglasses? Hadlie's been driving us
around all the time with her learner's permit now and the other day the sun was
glaring in her eyes and I thought of you and if you're allowed to wear
sunglasses???
1. Yes, that’s actually
what I used the credit card for a couple weeks ago. Did you check that yet?
2. What was your happiest moment from the week?
2. Happiest moment. Well...hmmmmm
I was pretty happy when I was splitting wood for a guy clear out in the sticks
this week. That was nice.
3. What was the worst food you ate this week?
3. Oh we had this super
bland spaghetti stuff that tasted like cardboard. It was nasty.
4. And we're mostly really curious about your investigators you have on
date for baptism...how did it go this week???
4. Well I’ll tell ya!...
But first questions. So...I
got a bill from the er here in St. Maries. I guess they didn’t send it to you. It’s
like 70 dollars. Do you want me to pay for it with my credit card? If not I
need to handle it soon so please give some sort of instruction today.
This week’s update on
investigators…first our investigator Eric has quit smoking and really put his
life in line with the Savior’s teachings and is ready for baptism on the 23rd
of September! I’m super excited for that. He really has come a long way.
Second, our investigator
Mia Suchouskie is flippin awesome. She owns a real estate business here and is
like the biggest realtor in the whole area. She is so kind and such an amazing
person and the ward here is pumped about her getting baptized. Her family isn’t
super interested yet but they will be here pretty soon. She has had no real big
concerns yet so she is one of those golden investigators that you hear about. She
is like our mom out here. It’s kinda funny! She asks us were we are going next
and what our plans are. She’s scheduled to get baptized on Oct 7th so it’s something
to look forward to.
Besides that we have
been dealing with some major smoke from all the fires in Washington and
surrounding areas. The smoke is so bad we aren’t allowed to go walk or bike at
all today. I’ll try and send a pic of how bad it is.
Yes I’ve heard about the
hurricane. I think it’s pretty funny that it’s called Harvey. Haha. I’m jealous
that you went to a Toto concert. They’re one of my favorites of that era. Well
mom, good luck with your new calling. I know you will do great! You have a
great opportunity to serve the people around you. Advice from my mission
president about leadership…always uplift and inspire others to do good. Instead
of thinking about your calling as serving over the relief society sisters think
about it as you are serving under more people now. Now you have the chance to
lift from below like the Savior did and not govern over the tops of others like
the world does. Good luck! You will do great!
Well love you and hope
you have a good week!

Those are elk steaks on the grill.
These are logging trucks that we see out our window. That is not fog...it's smoke.
