IS THIS WHAT THEY CALL...A NORMAL WEEK!!??


HEY EVERYONE!!!!

Hope everyone is doing well and that life hasn't been too crazy for you! Things have been pretty good over here nothing too crazy, so that's good to have a break from the hustle and bustle of things. But let me just get right down to it!!!

Last week on Monday was pretty fun! The Zone got together and had a little BBQ with some hot dogs and other pretty tasty things. You already know that ya boy was in charge of the grill because I am the grill king!! I had a really good time socializing with other missionaries and playing some soccer. Even though I suck at soccer I was still tearing up the field and scoring shots that game. I guess I might have a career in soccer after all...probably not but hey a man can dream.

On Wednesday we went on splits with the young men to take them out teaching with us. That was really fun. A kid named Zach and I went out to West Lorne to visit some people while my companion did some service with some of the other young men. Zach and I had a super awesome dinner at a member’s house. They made ribs and potatoes!! So basically like my two favorite things to eat, so you already know that I was just shoving my face full of food because I wasn't missing out on that!! Then we went over to another member’s house and talked to them for a little bit and they gave me the best dang lemon meringue pie in my whole life!! They were super awesome people. The guy that lives there reminds me of Goofy. Literally talks like him and everything, he is hilarious!! I was laughing the entire time that I was there.

Thursday was kind of a more gloomy day because we attended a funeral service of a member who recently passed away of a heart attack. He was a super amazing guy who showed love to everyone that he met and he always found a way to put a smile on your face. He truly was living the gospel of Jesus Christ and was always just beaming with joy and happiness. It comforts me to know that he is in a better place now touching the lives of even more people.

Friday kind of sucked too because every appointment that we had cancelled on us so we had to improvise and find other things to do. It was kind of frustrating but I was able to get a game of darts in against Bill and guess what!? I LOST AGAIN!!!! This time by 3 points!! Oh I was heartbroken but I am improving a lot and one of these days I am going to beat him and claim my rightful place as dart king!!!

Saturday we went to a member’s house for a BBQ and he made some freaking delicious burgers for us so I was super grateful for that. After that we went and played basketball with the young men so I did the regular thing just snapping ankles left and right and dropping the 3's on them like I usually do. Just gotta remind people sometimes that I am the best that is and ever was when it comes to playing basketball. 😃

Other than that I can't think of anything else that happened this week so yeah!! I love and miss you all and wish the best for you in the upcoming week!!!​​
