Hey Mom!

So this week was a slow week work wise. In that aspect we have been finding a lot of new investigators for the Sisters for some reason haha. Everyone that seems to be solid we have to refer to the Sisters, but that's okay it is the same work. The best day of the week for sure though was on Saturday! We went on trade offs with the Zone leaders and that was a really good day! So we went to a place called Mount Lofty, you should look it up it is beautiful. We went on a hike there with the Elders quorum in there ward and they had an investigator come. It was such a great experience. I will have Elder Layatele send you the pics I had to use his camera. There is sometimes Koalas and Kangaroos there, but this time we didn't see any. Still it was a beautiful day and the view was amazing. I was in a trio for the day and those Elders are just hilarious. The new Elder, Elder Lee, is 6'9'' and he's pretty funny. He is going to play for BYU basketball when he gets home. Anyway, there so happened to be heaps of gorgeous girls hiking this trail and he was just dying haha. In all honesty there was just one after the other it was crazy! Even Elder Layetele at the end of the hike turns to us and asks "Did you lock your hearts?". Yeah my heart is locked, but honest there was a lot of beauty on that hike! So following the hike we get to the bottom and realize we are going to be late for Elder Lee's appointment with the chiropractor. They told us it was about a ten min walk to the car where we parked down the road so we thought we could just run it. So we ran... for 30 straight min! We are all sore as now! It was crazy how far it was to the car. Then we went to the Chiropractor and did service and all this stuff. By the time we closed the trade off, we only did like 2 hours of finding is all. Was a really fun day, but didn't get much work done. There was just a lot to do.

Love you heaps Mom! Have a good week!


Excerpts from Dad's email:

Hey Dad!

As well this week, we did a chapel tour with our investigator M.... It went really great actually! He never has gone to church before, so we showed him around with a member and you could really feel the spirit strong! I hope he will soon feel comfortable enough to come to church next week. Never done a chapel tour like that before though. We taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ lesson as we went and he seemed to really be interested in temples. He saw a magazine all about temples and that really peaked his interest.

I am really looking forward to teaching F... again tonight! It is always a highlight of the week! Love their family! Not really sure what else to write about haha any questions just email me!

Love you dad!!!!!

Wow, these guys are tall! Elder Lee, Elder Bryner & Elder Layatele
