A day in the life of an Elder

Hermanos y Hermanas de la familia de Dios

Whats happenin?! Man that conference was great. I loved how elder Holland testified about the Book of Mormon. The same testimony burns within me even now as I am talking about it to you. I was mentally exhausted after all the wonderful talks. I'm playing some tennis today with another missionary that played on Highlands Ranch high school team back home. His name is Elder Spear. He's pre sweet. I gotta practice up so i'll only be semi embarassed when I play Ky. This week was cruddy. My companion last monday sprained his ankle and so we rested it up the whole week. I planned on reading the old testament all the way through. Needless to say I made it through genesis haha. I kept getting distracted by the cool footnotes and wound up reading most of the Bible Dictionary. Some day I'll make it thru the Old Testament. Luckily though it looks like his ankle is mostly healed up so we are back on the streets baby. We had Zone Conference on Friday and I had to give my "Departing Testimony." It was weird. Tell alexis that I'm going to get ahold of her monday two weeks from today to give her some stuff to hold on to. I'll also leave my bike at the mission office the day I get shipped out so that they can pick it up. Tell her because she doesn't read these. That was super weird when I came back and the proactive was on the porch. Anywho I can't wait to see you all again. I keep having dreams about seeing everyone. I love you all! Especially Mom because of her faithful emailing haha. Peace!
