Just thought I would let you know that I have been doing great in my journal writing. I don't think I have missed a night. The guy that owns the one restaurant in Declo asked if I played ping pong the night I was over there and I told him I used to. He said that he was the king of Declo and I said that',s not saying much. He challenged me to a game and I had to show him how we do it and beat him in my pros 16-21. He wanted a rematch, but I told him another time, that I had work to do hahaha.
What was the color of my pants that you messed up? And send Mac's email asap because I need to get his letter out, so whenever you get it just send it right away. Also I need Steve Allen's as well.

I made an "I'm a Mormon" thing and I'll create a link that ties to Facebook. Congratulations to Chelsea, that's awesome that she got in. Everyone and their mom is living in Utah these days. Thanks for the package with my watch. And I need some CD's with words. You know I hate classical/instrumental, but it was still a good change.
We have four people that we are trying to quit smoking and one started today and the other one that she and her husband have attended church for the past twelve years is starting Thursday. We are really excited about that one and hope she is able to go through with it because I know that if she stops they will get baptized. But we have been having more success and things are picking up. We had a baptism on Saturday, but we only met the lady twice before. She had moved to our area right before she could get baptized in the area where she was previously taught, but it still counts. I've worn a different tie everyday and now I've gone through them all!
I ate breakfast with Chad as most of you know. It was funny because the day after he called I actually got a fortune cookie that said "A visitor will soon delight you". Pretty crazy and funny. It was really great to see him. The nice thing was it didn't have an effect on my work and I was able to get refocused right away, which I knew I would.
We had two bomb appointments this week that are looking up and we will hopefully set a baptism interview with them this month. There are a lot of things happening this next week and you will get to hear all about them next letter.
Dad don't forget to wear your Fast Sunday tie this Sunday. I was thinking this week of how God has a sense of humor. I remember telling Mom that all I wanted was a good trainer and then I didn't care what else would happened throughout my mission. But I think He took that as a joke and said you'll get what I give you. Things though are getting better with my companion. We had companion inventory yesterday and I think that helped a lot. Things should be better and then we'll see what happens in three weeks with transfers. I accept the scripture of the week and will have to look at it when I get the chance. I think that is it. I will send a couple pictures, but hope everything continues to go well.
Love ya' guys!
