day 124 Questions and Answers

I've sent you Christian's emails...are you getting them in letter form?  He's pretty funny! especially the part where he says some words in his language... 
i haven't gotten anything from you but that first one. hopefully it will come this week. haha i can tell from his first letters that he is really funny. his comp sounds awesome and wish i could meet him. its weird to think that chirstian is learning a different language and speaking it. i bet he has got it down pretty well now that he's been there for almost 4 weeks! and also i hit my 4 month mark (my click day). CRAZY!!! just think...in two more months i will have been out for 6 months! AHHHH it doesn't seem like that long at all!

How did you figure out how to use your camera and upload the pictures? 
well i went to wal mart and bought a little device that plugs into the usb port in the computer and i can plug my SD card from my camara into that and it uploads pictures onto the computer. awesome! i will send home my card cause it has videos on it that won't fit on the emails.

What're your plans for Thanksgiving?  Going anywhere special?  Some members house? 
yeah we are going to a members house and they usually have like 30 or more people there for thanksgiving so we were invited there. pretty cool.

I think dad asked you what you wanted for your birthday/christmas gifts...and you said that you'd think about it.. Have you had a chance to do that?  I would like to know so I can send them out soon for you to get them. 
YES i would like every mo tab CD that you guys can find and send it to me cause our mission president has told us that our baptismal goal for this next year would be 400 and to acheive that goal we needed to make some sacrifices and one of those is listening to only mo tab. so that would be nice if you could do that. also send me some winter gear!!!!! i only have that coat that randy gave me and it doesn't work all that well with keeping the cold out. some gloves, a beanie, some nice warm socks...(black), um...some thermals, a big puffy coat. i don't know how expensive it will be for you to ship those out to me but maybe you could put some monies on my card and i can have elder kendell help me buy the cheapest stuff there is so that it doesn't cost that much.

We have to speak this next Sunday ...well not really speak...we're reporting on YOU GUYS!!!  Anything you'd like me to say? Or funny stories? 
um...well Elder Kendell and i had a laughing fit yesterday. we went to a L.A. (Less Active)'s house and had dinner with them and after we watched a movie and it started cutting out at the end which was aparently really funny and so we just started busting up laughing and we couldn't say the prayer we were laughing so much and so hard! haha funny stuff! other than that not very much funny stuff has happend lately. sorry.

Best this week? 
best this week probably was stake conference and zone meeting. we had a general authority come and speak with us cause he was there to set apart the new stake president for the des moines stake.

Funny stories? 
not yet. sorry.

It snowed and stayed over night on friday night but was gone again like by saturday night.  Any snow for you?  Ty is bummed that the ski season won't open up till Dec 7th I think?  and he already has a pass and wants to use it. 
ha we haven't gotten any snow. its just really really cold. thats lame that ty can't go and that it won't open till then. when did they open up last year?  

What is the best thing about Elder Kendell?  Send us a picture of you two so I can add it to your shrine on the wall.  I'll take a picture of the wall.  It has metamorphed (gosh when I was rereading this I wondered "is that even a word?" lol, I don't think it is)  into a shrine of my missionaries.  Do you think that you'll be together just ONE transfer or for one more?  Like be there in Knoxville over Christmas? 
the best thing about Elder Kendell is that he is really easy to get along with. he makes me laugh and he is a really mature missionary. he is able to correct some of the mistakes that i make and help me correct them after lessons or after role playing during companion study. hmmm...he doesn't think that i will be here another transfer and i don't know what to think. maybe i will stay and maybe i won't. i have no stinkin' clue!

Last time you sent a picture of some jello...did the fife's send you some and how to make that recipe?  Was it easy? 
yeah!!! they sent me a package full of things that they thought was nessesary for me to have as a missionary. teagan sent me a little rubber football and garrett sent me the stain glass jello recipe cause he was sure that it was my favorite thing that i had at my farewell...hahaha i don't think i had a piece of it cause it was all gone by the time i got to it but it was good when i made it! :) and then owen thought it was nice to send me some toilet paper...fortunatly we had one roll of tp left when he sent it so we were lucky enough to use his roll. :) haha and emmett gave me some of his halloween candy. it was a nice funny package.
