1. What has been the weirdest experiance so far?
So far I never thought this would happen but... I got asked on a date on the mish while I was at the docs office. Of course in a nice manner my comp and I regretfully LOL told the girls that we aren't permitted to do such a thing on the mish.

2. How many miles would you say you have walked so far?
I have walked about 50 miles by the end of this transfer

3. Favorite scripture
2 nephi 25:26.

4. Tell me about one of your favorite investigators.
Rocky Johnson he was disfellowshiped and has come back to the church and will get the Melchizedek priesthood soon. I love this guy because he is so humble and submissive to change.

We've been "blackboxed"

Now our car has a black box monitor so we can't go over 75 with out getting in trouble. : ) Our last car was the last one with out the box so..yeah .. I'm slower.... ; )

And then there was a Racoon...

I have a story for you.. so yesterday on our way down to transfers Elder Moors and I were cruising along, it is a big trip down there, its like 150 miles from Green river to SLC. So with about 45 miles left at about 100 miles an hour we hit a raccoon. This thing was huge! It was like a small black bear! So we looked at the car and saw no immediate damage and continued on. As soon as we got to the SLC exit we noticed our temp was way hot. We stopped and looked at stuff and didn't really know what was up. We had no oil on the dipstick and no coolant so we filled the oil and couldn't get coolant. We limped along stopping periodically to cool down, but then one time the car power just stopped. The car computer shut the car down. We were dead. So Moors called one of his cousins and he towed us about 10 miles with his jetta. But it is okay because we were trading our car for a new one this transfer and this gives the mission one more reason to get trucks in Wyoming. (Or to make the missionaries ride bikes! --Elder Norton's Big Sister Jacque)

Golden

So I taught a girl last night who has the same name as you (Jacque). The lesson was so amazing she already wants to be baptised even before we came there, we just have to teach her. It was awesome you could feel the spirit so strong and she was crying. I was like heck yah!! Haha but really it was sweet. The only bad thing is that she is in another companionship area, we were on splits last night so they get the reward.

Leader of the Pack!

Mission President Info:

My prez is President William Blake Sonne (so-nee). He is really cool and understanding, he knows how boys are and can meet them on there level and help people change. I also had the opportunity to teach a lesson with him and I felt the spirit of prophesy and revelation so strong there when he taught.

Mode of Transportation

Foot, Bike or Car?

Right now I have a 2007 Chevy malibu and we may be getting chevy colorados later. There are parts of the mish that are walking and bike so that could happen too.

Habitation Situation

So this is a description of my pad.

Well my apartment is a one story, two bedroom, one bathroom. One bedroom is a study that has two desks. Our living room has two couches which date back to 1960 and our kitchen has an oven that is equally old. We have dingy red/brown/off white carpet that could be used for scientific research on odd growths. So basically our place is sweet. We have a George Foreman, and I bought a $16 charcoal grill, which i cook elk steak on every now and again. We have a good shower that never runs out of hotness. We have very comfortable beds and I have a really soft, warm blanky. We use separate closets and dressers. So that is my place. : )

Memories

Funniest moment so far:

I think that my funniest moment was when my comp and I snuck in to some other missionaries apartment when they were napping, we had masks on and we pinned them and duct taped them! We scared the crap out of them! Think about being woken up by to dudes in masks that are over 6 foot and over 200 lbs. ;)

Scariest Moment so far:

The scariest moment would be when I was on splits for 24 hours. I was with a zone leader and he got a call at 10 pm from an Elder who had a bad feeling come over him when he was outside turning off the lights on the car. The bad feeling was "don't let them in," who "they" are I don't know probably bad spirits. When he got inside he checked on his companion and he found him clenched tight in his bed, he could not respond and it wasn't until his comp gave him a blessing that he woke up. It scares me to known that the devil works so hard to get us.

A Day in the Life... : )

Current Companion:
Elder Fritzler.We get along really well. We both like sports, working out and hunting.

My Day Consists of:
Well day to day we try to do a lot of contacting and investigator lessons. We also coordinate with ward leaders to plan exchanges and dinners with them. Then we check on less active and recent converts. That's generally what we do day to day.

Latest Adventure:
We went up Wild Horse Canyon and actually saw wild horses so that was cool and you can see for ever up there. I have pictures that I will send soon.

Weirdest Food Eaten:
A meal that was completely green. They dyed it green because I am a greeny. I also have pics of that. :)

Most Missed Food:
I haven't really missed a food because I have kinda had just about all of it.

P-Day Activities:
Basket ball, exploring, e-mail, bowling, wrestling, hacky sack, food and other random stuff we decide to do.

A Neat Story:
I had to give a spiritual thought after dinner and I had never met the family before so I had no idea what to talk about. When the time came I was open to the influence of the spirit. The spirit told me to talk about ward missionary work and that this man was a ward missionary. I never met him before and it turns out that he was indeed a ward missionary and he needed a lil kick in the butt from us to get him to do his work.
