There are DOGS everywhere! May 2, 2011

Hey Mama!!! It sounds like you're having fun in Boise and that Logan had to pull you up tablerock!! haha! That is one crazy dog! I've decided that I don't like dogs as much any more... there are so many here breeding like rabbits and their dead bodies are always on the side of the road. I guess that's what happens when you don't have pet control.  I've already been bitten by one, don't worry I didn't feel anything it was a little mutt, that's all they have here.. mutts.

Please tell Randie that I'll be praying, and tell her everything will be fine. The Savior will be there with him during the whole operation.
 
Faith has always been the key.  It's been in front of our noises the entire time, without faith there is no miracle. With great faith comes great power, with great power comes great responsibility. I have been learning so much here on my mission.  I know that my life after the mission will be very blessed. There are always those missionaries who go out and come back saying yes I can do anything and everything I want now or say their mission was just a big waste. Not for me, my life has changed, I'm not going to have decisions made for me. I'm going to decide right then and there, and if that answer is wrong then God will change it. I have gained confidence in who I am and what I want and what I want my future to have and be. Its funny how God has taught me these lessons... he just smacked me in the head and said this is what you need to learn, and sometimes I did it through very depressing moments... I just laugh now, He really does work in mysterious ways!
 
The family that we were teaching hasn't had a chance to talk with us, they are still very receptive. My companion and I  have been working on our lessons and contacts. We have found alot of people!! Wow! and this passed week just flew by.. if  I keep it up I'm not going to know how the time went by so fast.  I love this work and I love these people. I can't wait till I get to talk with you guys!! Speaking of which, 5 o'clock should be fine make sure everyone is there!

I'll be waiting for your phone call at 5 (Idaho time)

I Love you all, be safe!
