HEARTBREAK!!!!


WHAT'S BRACKIN YOUTUBE!!?

Hey everyone hope your week was super good and that you are loving life at the moment and if you are not... get some Arby's or something that always cheers me up. Anyways let’s get right down to the business!!! 

On Monday last week it was a member's 18th birthday and she wanted us to come and celebrate with her. So we met at Subway and got some sandwiches, and your boy got the chicken bacon ranch melt because you already know that is the best thing on the menu. Subway was delicious as always and after that we went BOWLING!!!! I was pretty hyped to get in there and show off my skills but we played some weird 5 pin bowling thing where the point system is all sort of jacked up and the bowling balls are the size of softballs. It took me a little bit to get used to it but as soon as I got it down I was destroying everyone. The last game they decided we would do actual 10 pin bowling because they have never done it before. I won as always because you know that I am the best bowler there is and ever was, finished with a 156 so I am pretty proud of myself. 

Then on Friday after district meeting we went up to Brother Dunning's because the youth were having a snowmobiling activity the next day and he needed some help getting the snowmobiles out of his trailer and ready to go. But this is Brother Dunning and things are never done the conventional way. His snowmobiles are stored away in a 16 wheeler trailer so there are no ramps to get the snowmobiles out, however he does have a tractor and some straps to get it out. Basically what ended up going down is this- we took the back end of the snowmobile and put it on the forks of the tractor and then took a strap and wrapped it around to the front to hold it into place. The only problem was that the snowmobile is front end heavy and there wasn't enough weight in the back. But luckily for him he had two perfectly good missionaries to act as the counter weight. So basically my companion and I are sitting on this sled in the air trying to balance it so the whole thing didn't fall over. It was kinda sketchy but super fun at the same time! But then the heartbreak came when I had to watch Brother Dunning and his family ride around in the snow and I couldn't participate. Just pains me to even talk about it now!!!!! But I am glad I got to help and just be in the presence of some snowmobiles. 

Other than that my week was pretty normal just spreading the gospel and talking with people.  

I love you all so much and always appreciate the emails that you send. I won't have time to reply today because I am super busy but I will definitely be reading all of them. 

Thank you all for the support and have a good rest of your week!!!
