2.) We have to be inside at 7:00 for p-day tonight, so I might hand out some candy and attach some pass along cards with it.
3.)
today we are having a Halloween party. The zone leaders and I are eating at fuzzy's tacos and doing
the nacho challenge. The sisters are doing my makeup today and putting
fake blood on my face. They are also dressing the zone leaders up to
look like girls so I'm taking tons of pictures of that which I will send
next week. We are then carving pumpkins and watching a church movie,
probably like 17 miracles or something so today should be fun!
4.) I have eaten literally half the bag of candy. I will be sharing the rest haha
5.) I sent my absentee ballot. Yes I #votedforhillary and all the democrats......................jkjk #TheGreatTrumpShallSound
D&C 102: And another trump shall sound. ....Donald Trump?I don't know
6.)
We have been practicing the song and we might be able to do it the last Sunday of
the tranfer in sacrament meeting. A sister from the ward printed me out
Clair de lune to play on the piano so I'm learning that.
7.)
The man and his son who we ran into who was super interested in learning
more about the church is doing awesome. He and his son are reading the Book of Mormon. Though in the last week he Hasn't been able to come to
church nor meet with us because of his taxi driving job and his
orchestra band and his punk rock band that he is in. So that is
frustrating but we are being patient with him.
8.) The baptism is off and Dad will tell you about it because I told him the story in an email to him today
9.) Anyway I'm not that homesick. it may have sounded like that in my
last letter but I'm doing fine. It's just sometimes I think about home
and miss it a little but it doesn't make me sick. It's just feelings
that every missionary gets. some more extreme then others.
I forgot we got to usher at the Fort Collins Temple Dedication. President Uchtdorff was really funny. We stayed for two sessions. Some day's I have time to sit and think and most of the time I daydream about home and how much I miss it. I love it here. I think missionary work is so much fun. Personally I love joking around with people. We were tracting one day and I read a sign that said, "Reserved parking for the Worlds best Grandpa." I knocked on the door and said, I'm very privileged to have finally met the world's best grandpa. I was wondering where he lived. He said through the screen door, "Go Away!I looked at Elder Barker and said, "Well, I don't think he is the worlds best grandpa anymore."I got a kick out of that. "
A lady one time answered the door and looked at the ceiling and let out a big sigh, "UGHHHHH!" I said in a very gay voice, "UGHHHH, it's the Mormons, they are going to try to hand me a free Mormon Bible." She started bursting out laughing and we actually got to share a message with her. The more you have fun with it the better attitude you have and the more successful you'll be!

Hey
I'm glad you got my letter in the mail. Maybe I will start doing more of
those but I dont have paper to write you letters on other than the
expensive stuff from Sister Shahan and my journal paper. It has broke
records out here in Colorado for how warm it has been. They said it was
the first time since 1960 that it has been 80 degrees on the 24th
crazy!! Aaron Hubbard came home and I think Cody Hackman gets home soon
too. Send me Nics email!! Izzy looks like a
grown adult what is up with that! I didn't even recognize Avery in her costume what the heck is up with that hahahahaha! jk jk
jk! Funny costumes for the girls. I love it wish I could be there but my Halloween
costume is the best one yet. I get to dress up as a Mormon missionary
haha! Hope grandpa's surgery goes well! tell him I miss him!! He needs to email me!!
Mom I love you so much I will tell you that every week! Don't miss me too
much no crying! I'm doing great out here and it is an experience for
both of us :) I will talk to you next week hold up I will send you
pictures right now and some Halloween ones next week.
Dad I'm so blessed to have you and mom as my parents. I love you both so
much. I want to grow up and be the man you are. You tried your best to
be the best father you could ever be and you didn't even have a father
to look up too. I look around at the fathers I have met whether it be my
friends or family and I have never met a more patient humble priesthood
leader. I want to be just like you
Love ya
