Hi Family!

Summer is kicking off over there for you guys!  That is so fun!  Is there sunshine there (Washington sunshine of course)?  It's sure starting to warm up here. I have to say that even though I enjoy biking, I'm grateful for the blessing of an area that is "too big" to bike.  The A/C of the car is a wonderful blessing.  It's HOT.  And it's only going to get HOTTER is what I'm told.
 
I hope everything is going as wonderfully for you guys as it is for me.  Our area here is beginning to show proofs of what I had always hoped and imagined it could be last transfer when I felt we were just wasting time.  It's a wonderful thing.  I love it.  I have never felt happier calling in the key indicators to the district leader than I did last night.  It was great.  We are being very blessed.

We currently have a good problem on our hands.  Lots of teaching, and not enough time in the days to do it.  Every single one of our evening hours is already filled for this coming week.  I love it, but at the same time I am a little bit disappointed.  The evening hours are the best hours for finding new people to teach.  But with our evening hours already booked it creates a slight bit of an obstacle in our finding efforts. I have once again caught the same excitement, motivation, and thrill in finding new people to teach as I had back in my first area.  I just love it.  So it brings me just a bit of sadness to know that as we go throughout this week seeking new people to teach, I won't be able to say, "Oh si!  Manana a las 7 esta perfecto!"  But, like I said earlier, it's probably a good problem to have.  So I will deal with it happily.

The only sad part of the entire week was that we didn't have the chance to teach our amazing miracle family I have told you about.  They were just too busy.  We had a few set up appointments, but they had to change/reschedule each one due to work or other things that came up.  So that was a bummer.  Well, actually I need to clarify.  We only weren't able to meet with the parents.  We were actually able to meet with their daughter.  And she even chose to make time for us on her Birthday!  Amazing huh?!?  We had a couple youth from the ward with us for that visit too so it was pretty fun.  

HMMMM well I need to go.  We actually are ending Pday early so we can teach a lesson to one of our investigators who had something come up tonight and asked us to come by earlier. Cutting off a chunk of Pday was the only other time we had available.  So we did it.  

Love you So much!  

P.S I forget if I ever thanked Grandma for the cookies or not.  They were super yummy!  Thanks Grandma!

P.S.S.  Exchanges with Elder Ingram are tomorrow.  I'm super excited for that.  It will be lots of fun.  Love ya!
