11 months....almost halfway there :)

Hey everyone!
I hope that you all had a great week and a wonderful 4th of July! This
are going really well here! The 4th of July was a bit of a bummer.
Everybody here celebrates the 4th by going to the beach, so there
weren't really any celebrations that we got to join haha. And there
weren't hardly any fireworks where I was at either. But one of the
families in the ward invited us over to a barbecue for lunch and that
was really good. We had salmon hamburgers which were really really
good! Other than that though it was pretty much just a normal day.
This week was really good though! There are a lot of people who are
really progressing in our area and love listening to us and going to
church and everything. This weekend the Rolon family should be getting
baptized if everything goes according to plan. They are a great family
of 3 who we have been teaching for a little over a month now. The dad
used to smoke 2 packs of cigarrettes a day, and he stopped cold turkey
after we taught the word of wisdom and now he hasn't smoked for 2
weeks! He has started to be able to do exercise again and he is so
happy and already getting healthier! It is great to see!
We had a car all last week so that was sweet haha. It was a good
change of pace to have the option of getting in the car when it was
pouring rain instead of riding the bike haha.
It is crazy to think that today is the 11 month mark! That is a long
long long time haha. The time just keeps passing by!
Well I hope that you all have a great week this week! I love you and
miss you all! Talk to you soon!
love
Elder Searle
