ON THE ROAD AGAIN!!!!


HEEEEEEYYYYYYY!!!!

Hope everyone has had a good week and plenty adventures involved with it! My week seemed to fly by but probably because I spent half of it in a car! But without further delay let us jump right on into this thing!

Monday was pretty fun, we played basketball with a bunch of other elders. After that we went grocery shopping at Costco.  🛒 It has been a fat minute since I have been in a Costco so it was definitely worth it. I don't know why but it seems like every time I go into an establishment people automatically think that I work there for some reason. 😂 I was asked at least 5 times if I worked in the meat department while we were there. But anyways after shopping and the rest of the others went back home, we went over to the church and played more basketball for sports night. 🏀 That was sweet! It was just us and people from around town. It was super cool to get to know some of the people.

Tuesday was just a regular missionary day. We went and visited some people to see how they were doing as well as going around and knocking on some doors. Nothing too special.

Wednesday is where things start getting crazy. So on Wednesday we were supposed to be at the temple in Brampton at 6:45. We thought easy enough we will just leave at noon and that will give us plenty of time to get down there. BUT WE WERE DEAD WRONG! A massive snow storm came through the area and caused the highway to be shut down until they could reopen it. ❅❅❅ So what was supposed to be about a 4 1/2 hour drive turned into 9 hours!!! Needless to say we didn't make it to the temple that day. We just went to the place where we were going to spend the night and called it a day.

On Thursday we had to get up and go to a conference that started at 8:45 in the morning. The conference was really good, I got to see a lot of my past buddies and catch up with them a little bit. The conference lasted till around 4:30 and after that we went to the temple and spent a little time there. Then we had to drive to another place we were going to spend the night at.

Friday we got up and made the trek back to Sudbury. Luckily there were no issues with the trip so we were able to get there in a timely manner. After we got back we did some studies and ate some dinner then went to the church for another sports night. Just had to release all that energy.

Saturday was good. We got up in the morning and played some basketball. After that we went and helped somebody move. The move didn't take too long and nothing extremely heavy. After that we came back and showered and ate some lunch. Then we went out and visited some people and then Elder Rigby and I prepared the talks that we had to give the next day.

Sunday was pretty awesome, Elder Rigby and I gave our talks and everyone said that they really enjoyed it. I was able to meet a lot of the members there and be able to introduce myself so that was good. After that we came back and did some studies and then drove out to go have dinner and the family had 2 golden retrievers who love to play. 🐕🐕 I pretty much died and went to heaven! 

Well that's all I got for this week. I hope you all have a good rest of your week!!

Love and miss you all!
