Been on my mission eleven months as of today!!!!

Hey Everyone!

It was great to talk with the family yesterday! So good to see Mom and Dad. I am not sure what to talk about because I feel like I told them everything!! So I will tell you a 2 tender mercies!

This past week I went on 2 exchanges! (Exchanges are when you swap places with a companion to learn from each other) Well I went back to Idaho Falls central for one of them and it just so happened that we got to teach Cody! He is doing really good! He was so happy to see me!! He is getting baptized next week on the 17th in St. Anthony. I am sad I won't be able to go because it is too far away, but i am so excited for him.

About 2 months ago, a couple named Manny and Lisa came into the visitors center. I taught them for about two hours! They were so receptive and soaked everything up. They left and I never knew what happened. That is one hard thing about the visitors' center, is we are kind of just seed planters some times. Well, they came into the Visitors' Center yesterday for a fireside!! They came with two elders from my district and told me that they were married on Friday, Baptized on Saturday and confirmed on Sunday. Oh I was so happy!!! What a miracle! Manny came up to me and told me that he really felt the spirit when I taught him, and the things I said made him really feel like he should investigate the church seriously. It really touched my heart! They said that they would come in more to see me and keep me updated on their lives. They are excited to go to the temple!!! 

The mission is wonderful. I am learning new things everyday! 

I absolutely love Sister Woods. She is hilarious and we have so much fun together. She is a trooper for going on so many exchanges too! 

There was a bar-b-q in one of the wards the other day, and the grill was so big that it has a trailer hitch, and Bishop Hansen pulled it on the back of his truck! haha! I'll try to send a picture.

Love you!!! Take care!
