Dad cut the babies hair??? oh goodness i remember the last time WE cut the babies hair, I, myself taylor,will never cut their hair again A. because they hated it and B. because you wanted to kill me and it was not a good day so i cant believe he did it again. im worried too about rykers hair but i mean he probably saw the pictures of me cuttin my own hair and figured he could do it lol. i cannot believe bridgers birthday is so soon he is growin up fast!!! and olivia too wow it kinda blows my mind. yeah i would do the tape recorder, if you guys want to ha that would be fine with me. i will go get one that holds a memory card and get a memory card today and then you can match it? il try and get the cheapest one. yeah lupe is comin for sure and i told her that you would see her, im pretty sure im sendin some stuff with her so make sure there is room in the back of the car hahahaha. we are teachin her mom and she is comin along a little bit but she was a jehovahs witness and is strugglign with some of the beliefs but i want to see their whole ffamily become memebers and be sealed so im gonna do all i can to help. i havnt heard from jose in a loooooooong time.... i think you shoudl do as much as you want for him mom you were like a second mom to him. so everything here is pretty good language is comin i seem to know a little more each day. the week was ok umm i was sick and that is what the withdrawels were for. im good though so no worries. i am with the same companion, and it is kinda common to be in the same place for so long but il probably get transfered next transfer.i did get the valentines package haha thank you. im glad you enjoed the videos they were pretty funny. im sorry your headed back to snow and im not at the same time, ha i kinda miss the snow ha idk what about it maybe the smell or kinda the fresh feeling idk lol but i miss it. im glad everything is good there and i love you all!

Transfers... I'm stayin!

hahaha ok so im sure your super mad at me cuz i didnt email yesterday buuuuut they changed it on us cuz of presidents day... here it is BEAUTIFUL ha startin to really warm up again and i LOVE it hahah. im so glad Keg got the letter it really wasnt much but im glad that he likes them! I am soooo glad that you go every week to the temple i know it will continue to help and i knew it would help! Yes, satan works in mysterious ways, he can even make things like going to the temple seem bad or like it's causing more problems. I know it is the spirit that you bring home afterwards is what helps. im pretty positive that i will go every week when i get home, especially after i am married. Madeline would love playin in the mud haha! what a goof! i didnt write her last week cuz i thought she was in st george all week. i'll write her today, let her know. That's so great how everyone pictched in for Jose's dinner. i love how that happens, how everyone comes together for a great cause, thats one of the things that i love about out there in osgood, everyone helps each other its amazing its like a giant family. As far as changing what day you write, you can write whenever you have time ha i just like gettin letters from everyone haha so when ever is ok with me. i did get a king cake from the Kleins ha they are awesome! we have to get together with them when this is over cuz idk i just feel super close to klien and i know you do too ha and his mom so that would be awesome. another person i will be hangin out with after is elder davis who sadly is getting transfered.... i wont be able to see him anymore well not for a while anyway...well my life is pretty good i must say i have had a wild week, it rained quite a bit this week and i got sick... 101.3 degree fever and i was super achy it was TERRIBLE i was asked not to go out so i didnt get people sick and i was later grateful cuz at one point in the day i could hardly walk it was crazy! i havnt been sick like that in a LOOONG time. teaching and new people are going slow, we have some people in our branch that have kids that havnt been baptized so we are really workin on them but other than that we are lookin. Transfers......... im stayin haha! they get to deal with me at least one more transfer lol what happened with klien and francis???? as for ctr bikes idk anything about them and no one here has used them, what everyone does is either sees if a missionary there has one or buys one there. i can ask some more buuuut it will be a whole week before i can let ya know. im glad that i am settin a good example for everyone, i love it here and its sooo amazing to do this work. its the only time i will have to do this. as for the questions your answers helped a ton ha i was confused about that stuff and i dont remember the other ones il have to let ya know next time. so how is your weight loss going? still asking for the help and strength to do it? well i love everyone and i miss you all i hope everything is good there, your in my prayers. il send pics next week i forgot my camera sorry.

Teaching through the spirit

haha yeah it is crazy we are emailin already i swear a week really isnt a week anymore, time just zips by. haha I know it's different now that my pday is monday. im sure havin that break of chores on tuesday was nice. so yeah, il give ya another 6 months to get used to monday since these 6 have flown ridiculously fast. i wouldnt say I'm freakin out about the time yet, but it seems crazy! now, when you say a year, il probably be freakin out ha. oh yeah there are days that i think oh goodness this is never ever gonna end lol but then there are days that i say oh man i dont have enough time to get done what i need to get done. yeah im sooo glad you have had Klein and Francis for these 4 months cuz i think that's helped you guys out alot. yeah i will see what i can do to cheer Klein up. thats too bad that he is takin it hard, ha i know if that happened to me id probably take it pretty rough for awhile too. i love him and he is a strong missionary and he will be ok i know it. IM SOOOOOOOOOO glad Jose took out his endowments finally!!! oh i knew he would be ok. thats sweet your all goin to phantom! that will be super fun! ok best and worst. well i felt sick on saturday so that was definately the worst besides the investigators that said they were gonna come to church not showin up and cuz we are on bikes and they live forever away we couldnt zip over and say something. best part though was we had some dropped investigators text and ask us to come back over and we did and idk the spirit was super strong and we didnt teach a PMG lesson i felt like we needed to read out of the book of mormon. they really needed it! they had alot of questions that needed to be answered and we wouldnt have found out if we wouldnt have read. of course i am still writin in my journal, idk if i told you but i kinda promised myself that i would be like dad and write EVERY day in my journal. the ball field was AMAZING!!! yeah that was elder davis, so its a long story but i was with the rez elders and we had to go see someone in their ward who just so happened to be the VP of the rez and he had a bunch of ball stuff in his office and i was like i LOVE baseball and we got to talkin and he goes, "Hey would you guys wanna go check out the new stadium for the rockies and the diamondbacks?" haha you can probably imagine what i said UHHHH YES!!!!!! definately one of the coolest things ever. the guy on the rez was super sad but i know that the spirit did testify to him, and i know i still have a language barrier but i CAN teach through the spirit. i havnt gotten that package yet but i hope to soon, did you get my little package with the jump drive in it???? i hope so. the time is flyin and next thing ya know i will be checkin this again to write ya some more. i hope everything is good there and i want you all to know i love you bunches!

Spanish whooped me...

wow the weeks FLY!!! i swear i just emailed like yesterday. well the best part of my week was when i got to go out with the rez elders twice and it was awesome ha i really like talkin with the indians out there, i got a chance to talk to an investigator of ours out there and well i guess my best and worst time happened with them cuz idk when i talked to this investigator it was really hard for me and idk it was rough. we went over and he speaks only spanish and its me and the rez elders and they are english. so we go in and we start talkin and i asked if he thought god loved him and he said he didnt know cuz his son was shot and killed a year ago and he knows who did it and where he lives but the police never did anything to him and the guy is still out there. he is severely depressed and it was sooo hard cuz i tried sooo hard to comfort him and i didnt feel like i could, i mean i guess spanish kinda whooped me that night but i did my best and i tried to bring the spirit and i know that comforted him some but that was pretty rough for me. my new comp is cool. umm not really any new investigators, we are lookin though. josh and lupe are good ha they are awesome. haha yes both Andrea and her sister got baptized and their parents are members but they were less active and the mom is now comin to church but the dad works on Sundays. the language is still movin slow ha but its comin.oh the weather is beautiful ha thats all im gonna say so no one gets mad haha. no i havnt been to the temple in a little while but we go soon. Jarom is going to south africa! That is sweet! thats crazy its so far away, his entry date though. im stoked jose is takin his endowments out finally! i love them both, Bobbie and Jose, but its gonna be hard for him to leave. trust me i know how hard it is to leave a girl home ha... i wish he was at the house more too, i havnt heard from him in a looooooooong time its kinda sad. oh man sounds like the house is gonna be CRAZY thats a lot of kids runnin around. im super glad my advice helped, ha i know that sometimes we do think that. HA he doesnt care about my weight or HA its not important that im slow or what ever it may be, but he does. idk thats one of the things ive learned is to rely on the lord for EVERYTHING ha and im glad you know that now, i think you knew that but sometimes you just feel silly askin for help with that stuff. I know he will help so great job!!! im glad your gettin to the temple ha if it does the same thing for you as it does for me then you need it once a week ha i need it that much but i got work to do and cant go that often. yeah that counts if you go twice in a week to catch up. hows dad been with the temple, is he gettin there? so elder klein got dear johned again??? he did in the mtc so idk whats goin on haha. tell him to mail me and talk to me about what he is havin a hard time with. well im definately workin hard and will continue to do so, i love the peopel and i know that even though some times are frustrating that i gotta keep goin cuz they need this message and wont be able to make it without. i want them to have eternal families as bad as i want mine. well i hope all is well i love you all alot and i miss ya.
