Awesome Week!‏

Hello everyone! So this week was really great! Only problem: all of the videos I had taken of the week are too big to send! (even when they're supah tiny.... so! I'll send pictures, even though they're not as fantastic.

Highlights of the week:

Monday-- absolutely fantastic! Went on a great hike through slot canyons and up to the flag in Monument Valley. Twas crazy. Got home, had an incredible lesson with Eric, really looking forward to the rest of the week.

Tuesday-- Interviews with President! It was great getting to talk about the progress of what's happening in Kayenta. Exchanges in Monument Valley with Elder Hill! Got to teach one of our favorites, Brother Fletcher. We always read and discuss the Book of Mormon with him, and it's incredible to see him as he grows to understand it.

Wednesday-- tracted out Oljeto! Met some really great people, helped stack some chizh (firewood), and practically got blown away with all of the wind. Went to Bob's Teepee village that night and had a great lesson with him. Stars out here like you wouldn't believe....

Thursday-- Awesome District Meeting on the importance of Becoming more like Christ. Hopefully, something learned will stick. Looking forward to the next transfer, and the chance to help the district progress. Also! Peaches came in. We have 3 boxes, soooo like literally hundreds of them. Since them, Elder Udy and I have eaten little else, with disastrous consequences. No need to go further into that.

Friday-- Bryant's Birthday! Woot woot! Happy birthday man, you rock! :) and Dwayne got married today! :D the best part of what we get to do out here is seeing people change and act on what they've come to know to be true. His baptism is coming up this Saturday, and we couldn't be more excited for him to be taking this step in his life.

Saturday-- wasn't sure how today would turn out; we had no scheduled lessons, but it actually went super well! Scary story of the day: We were hoghan hunting (when we're already out of the central part of town, we look for people to teach waayyy out in the boonies. So. We found a house! It looked promising, but for some reason, I parked the truck in a way so that we could get out of there quickly...so we start walking up to the house, when a pack of angry pit bulls comes out from around the corner... we picked up rocks to scare them away, buuuttt of course they weren't rock trained. So, we got out of there as fast as missionaries could go! Luckily, no bites, just a bit of adrenaline. Apart from that, a lot of great lessons with a lot of great people! :) And Elder Udy and I will be staying in Kayenta for the next 6 weeks! (P.O. Box 151, Kayenta AZ 86033 if 

Sunday-- Sundays always fly by! Fantastic day at church, fantastic lessons with a lot of fantastic people! :) 

Monday-- annnnd now I'm here!
