2 months today!

This last week has been a tough one. We had one investigator that we were excited to teach, but we called her everyday and she never answered. We have pretty much been knocking and street contacting all week. Sometimes it gets hard, but I just say a prayer and ask Heavenly Father for help and he gives it to me. We have met a lot of cool people, but they never agree for a return apt. My companion is a very hard worker so it is good, every night I go to sleep very tired!! The days feel like they are so long, but I can't believe how fast time goes by! Its been exactly 2 months since I got on that plane. Crazy! Its amazing how much I have learned. Being able to just go up and talk to people was so hard but now its almost like a habit because its what we do all day almost everyday! But I'm excited for this week, tomorrow we have a big football game with the ward, and we have about 20 people coming out, it always feels so good to play football! Me and my companion run every morning and do 20 push-ups whenever we leave or come into the flat so I'm staying in pretty good shape. The guy that said he was related to me met up with us and he took us to a good restaurant. He was a cool guy, and he said we were like 5th cousins or something and showed me how we were related but it just confused me.  A really nice guy and a good meal! I think the highlight of the week was when we were knocking on doors and a girl about 24 years old opened the door, she said she wasn't interested, but then she said I was a good looking kid and said I should go into modeling!!  So that was fun, but that wasn't the real highlight of the week! The real highlight this week was on Wednesday, we had just finished knocking on doors and we were both very tired and walking back to the flat. It was almost 9 and I didn't want to talk to anymore people. But on the way home I felt I needed to talk to this kid. So I did. He was from Romania, we talked with him for about half an hour on the street. We taught him the restoration. He was very interested and said he would love to read the Book of Mormon. We gave him a Book of Mormon and another pamphlet. He said he would have loved to let us come by but he was on his way back to Romania. I know the Lord prepares the people we are supposed to talk to, we just need to talk to everyone to find that one person. Also this week we got our hair-cut, and it was kinda sad, as I looked in the mirror as I was getting it cut I was just hoping to see my mom. And just for the record, my moms haircuts are way better then anyone else's and they are a lot cheaper! it cost 12 pounds to get it cut!! That's almost 24 bucks in America!! I have got a lot of letters this week and I love getting them! Thanks for everyone that has sent them! I will try and write back as soon as I can but I am so busy, its hard to find time! Stephens letter was so helpful, I read it about 5 or 6 times since I got it so make sure he knows I am very grateful for that! Bear Lake looks so fun.  I'm not gonna lie, I'm jealous! Hyrum looks awesome on that bike.   Keep praying that we will find someone to teach. I still feel a little homesick in the morning but it gets better everyday!  I miss you all so much and I have dreams about my brothers and sisters and cousins all the time!! Mom and Dad, I love you. Thank you so much for all that you do, you are amazing.

"God bless you to do those small and simple things that need to be done by you and to do them all with a cheerful heart."
