"Cool" week, Transfers & Sister Items

Hello mom. Sounds like it has been a crazy week. I have little time today being that I'm at the library again, but I have lots of news. 

Elder Bronson & Routledge 

I am in Ventura with my new companion, Elder Bronson. He is so great, we have had a good week. 
So, he has lots of pictures from home, so could you send me hard copies, like maybe 100 pictures or more, of all of you. 
Our new district here is almost all young missionaries, besides me and 3 others, so it's a little crazy but cool. I was thinking this week, remember when we first got baptized and you were all sad because our whole family was not at church? Well now we are all at church, you have a missionary out and look how great dad is doing. Not that your not doing great, your a momma, so your just stellar (I sure love this boy of mine). 

This week was crazy good. Monday we did shout outs in my last area, said goodbyes and all that fun and I packed. 

Love all the PINK !

Tuesday we had a great transfer meeting. I got to see a lot of people and said bye to some great ones, it was just fun. We went to our new apartment, (Oh and I am driving a Cruize now, so that is cool), but our apartment used to have Sisters in it, so we found some items...let's just say we did not want to find, so that was fun cleaning that all out. Then we had dinner with a cool family. 

Wednesday was cool. We met this less active RC (not sure what that stands for) and he has back issues but is really cool. We also had a bible study at this Senior Citizens Home and that was cool. Dinner was with the Bishop and he is great. He is an ex-fireman and man, is he cool. Just made me want to be a fireman all the more. Dad, you and me are going strong and I am getting more patches today from this new area. 

Thursday was cool. We had service in the morning and we got to demo a wall !! This guy is re-doing his house, so we got to go nuts on a wall. That was great. He also treated us to a tri tip sandwich lunch, then we did weekly planning, and got to know our area. 

Friday was cool. We had our first district meeting and I got to talk to the Sisters serving from my first area in Fillmore. Sadly, most of the people I was teaching have been dropped, but it is still cool to hear how the area is going. 

Saturday we were down on the beach front, home visiting people. It was cool. There are some really great people down there and most of my area is on a hill so I look over almost all the ocean EVERYDAY !!! I can not look to my right and not see it, so that is cool. We also attended a Spanish baptism today and that was really cool. Even in a different language, I had love fill my heart. 

Sunday was so great. We got to meet all the members and because we took over the Sisters ward they are so thrilled to have Elders so it was great. We had a good meeting and all the Priesthood holders in the chapel got up and sang, as did I, and it was really cool. Then we went by this one less active family and the one daughter served in Canada. She got sent home early BUT she is planning on going back in April to finish her mission. That would be cool because we could stay in contact, she is very cool mom. She is a really great member and man, she had us all laughing up, the whole family did, but don't get the wrong idea or anything, but she is pretty great. 

Well mom, dad, Scott, Shell. You're all so great and I love you all. Sorry for the shorter letter, but MUAH. Take care. Wish Niss the best for me.
