To the best friends and family a person can hope for,
I'm in my new area! I am in Ammon North, which is just east
of Idaho Falls. It's a walking area, and let me tell you, walking all day in 95
degree heat, is rough. I've been sweating a lot! I don't understand, I thought
Idaho was supposed to be cold. But, it's been fun, a good change of pace from
my last area, where we lived 20 minutes away from our area. My two new
companions are Elder Thompson, from South Carolina who was reassigned from
Ghana Africa, and Elder Snow, from California who was reassigned from Micronesia/Guam.
So far we've been getting along great! We get talking about a lot of weird
stuff. I'll just say, we've had some very interesting discussions...
One of the people we're teaching is a single father named
Moses, and he is awesome! He accepts everything we teach him, and he is
preparing for baptism on August 22nd. What a stud! We're teaching quite a few
more people, but not too many that are progressing. We're going to really work
on finding and setting up expectations this week.
I was pretty sad to leave some of the people in Sugar City.
There are such amazing people there, and I love them, they really helped me
grow and supported me there. Leaving them made me think of all of you. Thank
you so much for supporting me on coming out on my mission. Thanks for being
such great friends! I love you guys. If you can endure 6 months of lame potato
puns, then you are good people in my opinion. You guys are spudtacular! I
Idaho-pe you all are doing well. The title comes from a really confusing
conversation I had with Elder Baron before I left

4. Sister Hansen and us. She is one of the nicest people
I've ever met.
