So how have you been this week??? How was your zone activity last week?
Well your sis turned 18 on friday...she is an adult now. Dad says now he can legally throw her out of the house- ya right! So she had her nose surgery on Friday. We are staying up in Park City while she is recovering. Yesterday and this morning was the hardest. Her eyes were swollen shut this morning. But her pain is starting to get a little better this afternoon and she isn't taking as much Lortab.
Jake and Dad have been swimming in the pools here and I have been babying Ashley as much as possible. I have even rubbed her feet a coupld of times. hahahahahaha! I have been getting mad at Dad and Jake for eating all of the snacks. Right now Jake and Ash are watching the Prince of Persia. We have been missing you alot this weekend. We keep watching parts of movies and then say hey remember when Jed watched this with us. Jake and Dad kept rewinding Waterboy when the professor got hit in the head with the baseball. hahaha!
Jake is doing well in school. It is hard in some classes and he has to study alot. He certainly isn't bored. He loves keyboarding. His hardest classes are math and spanish. Ash is doing well as a senior. But she is taking a few college classes that are kicking her butt. haha! She would rather just be playing with friends!
Dad and I are working hard at our jobs. Some days are better than others. But we just keep working.
So I sent you another package on thursday. So if you havent already gotten it you should mon or tues. It is just full of treats and stuff. Hope you enjoy!
Well I better go and baby your sister some more. Keep up the good work and let us know who your teaching. I am so proud of you and I pray for you everyday!
Love you! Mom

Yo!
Mom, remember the digital voice recorder/MP3 Player? It only lasted for 2 weeks, I did everything the instructions said to see if it would work again, but it didn't. Funny Huh?
Ashley, i was laughing histarically when i saw those pictures, especially the cross eyed one.
We went on companion exchanges last week, Me and the other missionary ( Elder Molina from New Mexico) taught 3 lessons and 2 new investigators. We lost 1 new investigator yesterday.
We have an investigator named Albert, Older man, taught the restoration and invited him to be baptized. He accepted to be baptized but he didn't accept a date..Darn It!!!
We faced a little bit a persecution on Saturday. We were talking to this man in his drive way. He was open to talking with us. But his wife was listening to the conversation from the window above us and right in the middle of the conversation, she interrupted and started to argue with us. She said: "If you really believe that Jesus Christ is the Savior, then you Need to Throw the Book of Mormon in the trash, take those name badges off that say Elder, because you Aren't elders, i'm elder than you, get on your knees and ask god for forgiveness for what you're doing. Because what you"re doing is Blasmous!!!!" So we simply ended the conversation and left, because we were not going to argue with her.
Anyway, that is all I have to report for last week. I will keep you posted on how i'm doing
Love Ya'll
Jed
