Our Boy Band Needs to go on tour


Hey there Family! Well this week was an intresting week... I dont really know how to discirbe this week...? Well we worked hard and got a lot done just... I dont know... Well i dont know if you can even say that we worked hard but we some how got a lot of crap done?? First off let me start off my letter like this.... I just found out that me and elder süffert are the most sexy missionaries in the mission.... Its a funny story. Well me and elder süffert were sitting in the train and I was talking with him in english because he wants better english so sometimes we speak in english, but when we do speak in english it gets everyones attention because everyone there can speak english and they want to hear what we are talking about. Anyways this one guy kept looking at me and elder süffert and gave me this weird look... Well it was also me and elder süfferts stop and we needed to get out, as we were getting out of the train, in the door way of the train the man stops me and elder süffert by grabing my arm and looks me in the eyes and just says "You and your friend are very.... very.... Sexy..." I just looked at him with the werids look on my face and said... Danke and ran out of the train hahahah... It was very intresting hahahaha...
 
Well besides getting hit on by a gay guy this week we found another family... This family is just as cool as the last one... They are sooo adorable!! There is the mom and she has 3 kids and the oldest is 8 so also old enough to be baptised!! They are way cool, the best part is that the moms name is Pece! She is way cool and really intrested! The other family that we found from last week is also doing really well! The little boy in this familys name is chris and he loves us sooo much. We stopped by just for like 10 min just to say hi because we were in the area and she doesnt have a husband so we cant visit her without a joint teach so we just talked with her in the door way of her house! But the little boy ( Chris) Was soooo stoked that we came by. She started setting us chairs for us so that we could teach him about jesus! He also showed us his book of mormon and he has a bunch of scriptures marked up and it loving the book of mormon! The mom is also reading the book of mormon and is comparing it with the bible and she is lovin it too! The only bad part is that she thought i was 30.. I guess im starting to look a little old hahaha!
 
Well momma... Its sounds like everyone is doing really good except that Ethan is being a little bit of a woosie! tell him he needs to man up a little bit hahah! Im really glad to hear that stephen is doing soo good. Im really happy that he is finding friends and going to lunch and doing stuff! and doing good in school! WOW... And ellie.... Oh my I do miss her a lot... Tell her I would love to baptise her when i get home, that would be awesome... I dont know if i should get too set on that because i know her mind changes a lot hahahah! Oh it looks like she might need some lying typs from the maseter ahah... Thats not technichally a good thing ;) And dad lost 3 pounds... Wow.... We need to celebrate hahah wow... Go dad hahaha!
Momma... Your talk was sooo stinkin goood!!! Way to go, I didnt realize how good of a writer you are :) That was a very good talk!I loved how you had to bring up missionaries into the talk hahah :) Your story you shared was a little touching... I kinda got a little teary eyed as i read that, so good job momma!
 
Well momma... I have been praying about the whole coming home earlyer thing and my mind is still set on coming home in december... I dont know.. I just wrote pres and email about that and said i would talk to him abou that tomorrow because we have a confrince tomorrow!
 
Well momma i love you a lot!
OH and our boy band took some pics by a building that was rubble and We called it defeating the Natural man... cuz the building was all broke down and stuff anyhow we are really looking good. 

Seahawks are going to the super bowl!!! No Way!!!


Well, this week with my comp was another good one me and him do really good work together but we dont really understand each other too well... We teach a lot of people and do really good teaching but the problem is... He is just kinda a robot.... I dont know he wont have a relationship with anyone.... its kinda weird. Every time we are at a members appointment he doesnt say anything he just sits and doesnt anyting... When we are teaching thought he wont shut up hahaha??? I dont know so i end up doing most of the talking and getting to know people and getting our foot in the door! We had a really good lesson with Hamid this week and we found a family and that was awesome. Hamid is still on bapstism date. We are probably gonna gave to push it back a little bit thought because he doesnt really understand why it is important to come to church yet. He said he is trying to start a new life but he is moving away from his old life very slowly... hahahah. He said he wants all of his time to be spent with us and reading scriptures and stuff but...? So we are gonna teach him about the gospel of jesus christ this next week! tell him its important to come to church and talk a little bit more about the baptism and what exactly it is! With the family it went awesome... We taught a mom and her two little kids. She is married but the husband had to work so we just taught the mom and the kids. We brought the missionary couple with us. It was a little hard because sister nuttal doesnt speak much german and we thought the lesson would be in english but we found out that the kids only speak german so we had to do it in german for the kids. But the kids were loving it. We brought a picture book with us to help explain the lesson a little bit better and they loved it. It was really funny when we were talking about the holy ghost with them the little boy asked if the holy ghost was dangerous!? But the little boy is 8! The perfect age hahah!
 
Well... My suit isnt completly broken... Its a bad story.... Well this was last week and lets just say it was a bad day... Well to start off that day. I ripped my slacks.... Thats a funny story.... Elder lüning and his comp attacked me from both sides so i decided to do a jump double kick... So pretty much doing the slpits in the air.... Well you can imagine what happened... I ripped my slacks right down the middle.... So later i put on my suit pants and the stupidest thing every happened. Elder suffert and i were eating tacos and i spilled salsa all down my suit paints... This is my nice blue suit from Germay... So yeah thats what happened....
 
Oh well about the coming home date... Well.... I have been praying a lot about it. I havent gotten any big answers but for right now i have the feeling that coming home for school is the right thing to do. I still have some time to think about it and im still gonna continue to pray about it. But thats how i feel about it right now!
 
Well..... MR Ethan..... What is his deal right now??? Is he serious??? Can you call mangum and tell him That i say that mangum needs to wrestle him and beat the crap out of him... If i was there i would pound on him myself but, Mangum is a good wrestler and i know he could give ethan a good beating!!!
 
And MR Stephen.... Tell him ill pound on him if he doesnt start asking girls out... He donesnt need a nice can to ask girls out. He just needs to do it!!!
 
Oh i do feel a little bit bad for dad though... He gained one pound... It sounds like he is really trying to do this diet thing... Maybe he needs a little more encourgaement hahhah. I will sent him an up lifting message to help him out hahah!
 
Well momma, sounds like you are just running around like crazy as usual hahah. I hope things start to calm down for you a little bit. I think when ellie stats to get oldder she can start taking care of her self a little bit better! Oh and im glad you made cookies for your class.... It wouldnt be a normal class without your treats!!! Well... Some ideas about your talk... Its about being made whole... Well Momma thats what I do.. Well when i hear that I think of the gospel of jesus christ. Faith, Repentance, Baptism, getting the Holy ghost, and enduring to the end! I know thats a lot but. Being made whole is like being baptised. It all starts with faith but then faith leads to repentance, because when you have faith that you can receive remission for your sins throught christ then can your start your repantance process. When you have repented of your sins then can you be baptised and then after receving the holy ghost or being baptised of fire receving full vorgivenss of your sins. But, when we have been made whole we need to stay that way. Thats where enduring to the end comes in. We endure and keep all of the commandments that we have been given. I dont know if that helps you out with a couple of ideas for your talk?? Thats just a little short idea that came to me? I know I dont really talk too church throught emails... I try not too... Its just not really me to talk like that. I enjoy the gospel and enjoy talking about it.. I just dont like to go off and preach to my family. 
 
Well.... I may have just had an eppiphany!!! You said that Alyssa might be moving to araziona??? I should just go there and play football and live close to them!!!! That would be cool!?? I dont know??? ahahaha

Hey there momma. This week has been awesome actually.... Me and my Brazilian are doing awesome!! Me and him are finding animals!!! We are doing really good. We actually invited Hamid to baptism this week and he said yes. The date is Feb 8 th. I really hope it goes through. He is really loving our church right now. He is really excited to start meeting people in the church and gitting involved. We invited him to come with us to basketball this thrusday, he was really excited about that.
 Okay... Well my comp is way cool let me just say... I think he is my first normal comp i have had on my mission hahah. The weird thing is... He is white...  I didnt know that white people lived in brazil... But he is way funny and works really hard. We dont really have a problem talking to each other because he can also speak perfet english! He has hardls spoke his native language his whole mission, so he uses just english and german! Funny think about him though is i think he is a drugy.... He has this weird brazilian cup made out of wood and has a special metal straw... He drinks this really weird green stuff and he mixes is with hot watter... Im gonna be honest... I think its weed... No just kidding. I tried some the other day and i almost threw up... It tasted like grass clippings from a lawn mower.... Dont ask how i know how that tastes but ya... 
Well, about me coming home early... I dont know...for some reason something is telling me to come home early... I havent really spent too much time praying about it, so that will what i do this week... It could just be me that wants me to come home but, Ill ask the big man what i should do! Thanks for all of the infromation about that by the way. I love you momma! Oh and i dont think president knows the transfers correctly... I would be comeing home in january 28 not feb.... I just checked that... Because the group before me goes home an the second of december...? I dont know...
Well, can i just say im supper suprised... I can not believe that dad is actaully serious about this whole deit thing... Im cheering him on the whole way...I hope it doesnt fall through this time hahah! 
So, Stephen is hanging in there in schoolt... YaY!!! That makes me happy.... Tell him he is a stud!!
So, ethan pulled a brady and waited till the last week to do his home work... hahaha. Well i know how that is hahah. I hope he passed all of his classes :) 
Well momma, can i just say how much i miss you... I miss your cooking right now... The people here in Germany think they are a lot better than they really are...I just want some good momma cooking again! Oh and guess what... I got your package!!!

Happy New Year from Germany


Hey momma. Well this week was an okay one. Nothing really too speical happened just... The same ole same ole. We did a lot of finding this week because we are lookin for more solid investigators to teach, we dont really have the most reliable people... I guess the big news of this week is that my comp is getting transfered.. Im getting a guy from Brazil... He is way cool. He was in the mtc with me and he is sooo funny. Im pretty excited for him to come! 
Well as far as missionary work goes i think im getting better at this whole thing now. When the assistants called us for the transfer calls they told me that the program here has gotten a lot better since i came in and they want me to keep going, I guess president is noticing somethings. I feel like my teaching skills have gotten a lot better and im getting a lot better at german because all of the missionaries that i room with have very good german and they helped me out a lot. But its helping me be a better teacher because i can teach at the level of the investagator. 
 

How is Ethan doing over all in wrestling?? Is he doing any better? I hope he can find some joy in it. I hated it too but there are some really good lessons to be learned in wrestling and i dont want him to give up on anything. 
Oh no... The new bish wants to do everything by the book?? I know what thats like... Me and you dont do too well with people like that... hahaha im excited to hear what happens. 
Wait what.... Dad is still planning on losing weight... I think this is the longest this has ever lasted before... hahaha Im excited for him though. I think with this challange thing he will actuall have a more of a drive to do it!! 
Oh and about the coming him in december... Dont listen to what pres says about that. You just have to be a little bold with him.. He cant tell you no when you say that you need me home a transfer early for school. I will talk with him in my interview with him and figure all of it out but if you are gonna email him again just be a little bold! I will call the office today! 
WOW.... What I wanna be when i grow up?? Well... I dont know hahaha... I would like to maybe be what dad is.... I would also like to maybe study german too becaue that would be an easy class i dont know... Give me a list of what classes i should take for air traffic control? Or what do you think i would be good at ( for a job)?? 
Well momma i love you sooo much get on so we can talk!
