7.6--Temples, Phone booth, and Duck Dynasty

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

Sometimes when you're a missionary life is just awesome!

But really, things are going pretty dang good! This week we had a lot of amazing things happen! So we were able to take our district on a P-day hike last week, and I am pretty sure they are addicted to the outdoors now! Also, Elder Roylance and I went trail-blazing through the cacti and yucca, and we got cut-up pretty good, but we also got to see a bear-den!

 Also, we were able to see Shirley again, and we were able to have a powerful lesson with her, and she said that she will be baptized! :) wahoo, but she also didn't come to church on Sunday, so we will see what will happen next! :) 

Also, yesterday we were able to go to the Albuquerque Temple! It was a 4 hour drive, but it was so worth it!  That was so wonderful to both go back to ABQ and to the Temple! :) The Holy Ghost there is so strong, and it was terrific "Spiritual Recharge".  Our mission president talked us while we were there about making the Temple the focus of our lives! That by focusing on Christ and the covenants we make with Him, our lives and the lives of our posterity will be blessed forever because of the decisions we make now!

So things are going wonderful here in Cloudcroft! The work is picking up and I feel that we are on the verge of success! : )

And the following are a couple of fun stories from this week:

On Saturday we were out in Timberon, which is in the middle of the woods. We were running late to a dinner appointment with our Ward Mission Leader, and so being Cloudcroft  and having no cell phone service, we found a phone booth and made a call from a phone booth to our WML!  #bucketlist check!

Also, we were on exchanges this week, and we kept seeing one of the men from Duck Dynasty driving around in a Corvette Stingray! As it turns out, one of his family members owns a house in Cloudcroft, and we are pretty sure he was visiting them!!! :)


Anywho, things are good take care!
