Conference Weekend!!

Dear Family!

How is everyone doing? I hope everyone is awesome!! So how was Dakota`s birthday?? And "Happy Birthday" yesterday, Randy!

 I haven't had much time to read while I'm here so I just print off the emails to read them. Thanks so much everyone for letting me know how you are all doing!! It`s really great to hear from you :) We got letters this week! and I got the package!!! Thanks so much mom!! Wow that was so awesome, everything was like perfect. I love the candy and the Peanut Butter! Thanks for the Flash drive :) I haven't been able to see anything on it, or hear the music, but I'm trying to put it on my ipod so I hope it works!! But I love everything you sent :) Thanks so much!

So it was pretty funny, last week after p-day ended, we walked out of our pench to see this guy on a scooter getting ticketed by a cop. And then he did something that 'Ive thought about doing while in his situation, he just took off hahaha he grabbed his little scooter and was running with it. Then he just dropped it and ran while the cop was chasing him haha idk why but it was really funny to me!

It`s starting to get really cold here!! Every morning is pretty rough. The worst part is our little bucket shower broke! The plug doesn't warm up the water. I took a couple of freezing showers in the morning :P So, we've been going to a neighboring pench like 5 blocks away, which has been really nice!

Wow Conference!! I missed the Saturday afternoon session but was able to see all of the others. I haven't paid as much attention to previous Conferences as I did to that one. I learned so much and it was a huge blessing, I learned so much and felt like I lot of talks helped me, and seemed to apply really well to me. Some talks were so powerful, Elder Eyring's talk on Saturday morning was like a direct answer to some of my prayers. I learned so much!! What were some of your favorite talks?

Something really cool is that one of our investigators, Danilo, came to Conference!! He`s technically come to two Church meetings! So he`s going to be baptized!! His baptism is scheduled for this Saturday. I'm really excited for that! He`s an awesome kid, we taught the Word of Wisdom and he would drink alcohol and do stuff, but he's stopped. He really understands the importance of the gospel and especially the importance of the Spirit, and to constantly have that guide in his life. And we didn't even teach him that, he just seems to understand everything.

Also something pretty neat was that President Giuliani (my mission president) came to watch Conference with us on Sunday!! Which was really cool. He actually came because all of the missionaries went to priesthood session when he deliberately told everyone not to. So he came to reprimand everyone, it was awesome :) I think he's so cool. I got to talk to him in between sessions personally and talk to him about some difficulties. We talked for a while and he really helped me a lot in a loving way.

I was so engrossed in all of the Conference talks in a way I've never been before. It seemed like Conference was way too short this time. I really enjoyed them all so much. I hope everyone felt that same Spirit I did!

I love you all so much! I miss you guys. Is there anything I can do for you? I'm still here to talk to :) just a little further away than usual.

I love you! You are all in my prayers every day :)
