Hey!  We are going to be (hopefully) getting our phones  tomorrow  at Zone Conference. Everybody is really excited about that haha. I also talked to President Brennan about going home a transfer early and he said "The Brethren discourage going home a transfer early for schooling. Do you think you could make arrangements for school that would not require an early release? E.g., going on a block?". I don't know what to do now. I feel like I should go home a transfer early so that I can do a full semester at BYU-I. I mean, how would I get my housing situated if I got home on  January 30 ? Then I would just leave straight from home and not even really have a chance to get situated and into a normal routine or really be able to hang out with you guys. I don't know what to do.  But anyway, this week was kind of long. We had tradeoffs  on Monday  night through  Tuesday . It was fun! I was with Sister Farley! She is a ton of fun! I loved getting to know her on tradeof

Haha oh Bode. What the charmer. (referring to the fact that he changed 9 times-according to him-to get ready for the stake dance) He has slimmed up a lot, hasn't he? He's looking good! Man I miss that kid. Same with Brek. How are they? Sis. Grant is great. She is exactly the person I needed right now. I've been stressing a lot about feeling inadequate. I just don't know what to do! I don't know how to shake this feeling. It is so hard! haha I do love animals! Their dogs are just so cute too! Its hard to stay away from them!  Our investigators are doing great! We have two people on date for baptism, Jay (the 9 year old) and David. They are both amazing and so excited to get baptized! Our other investigators are keeping their commitments but are struggling a bit with some personal things that are holding them back from getting baptized as of right now. But, they are amazing people. The weather here is starting to warm up! Its finally in the 40's for this week!

I am so happy that Lexi enjoyed the temple! It is a great place to be! Sister Grant is great! Our investigators are doing great! haha yeah for a while you're constantly hot while wearing garments. Thankfully she doesn't have to go through the heat of the summer like I did! I am feeling great! So many good things have been happening here in Owosso! I got the cheer shirt! It is so cute!! I love it so much. Colfax is SO fun. He will love it. I'm glad he's doing Choir. He will enjoy it a lot! Did Brek like doing the reading night with olympic sports?  Michigan weather is weird. It was 50 degrees yesterday and now we wake up to a whole bunch of snow coming down. I don't understand Michigan. I don't think I ever will. Anyway, this week has been amazing! We have found a couple of Potential Investigators this week as we doorknocked, got 2 new investigators this week and have 2 investigators (almost 3) on date. So, we actually put one guy, David, on date for  April 7  y

The days are going by SO fast its insane! I completely agree with Brek. Also, I'm still waiting on that letter from him and Bode. But anyway, we have seen a couple miracles this past week. We picked up 2 new investigators! We also picked up a few potential investigators this week which was pretty cool. We were going after the Less Actives in the Owosso area, and the last house we stopped at for the night answered the door and told us he wanted to come back to Church. Then, his brother steps out and joins in on the conversation. Then, Keith (the Less Active), says that he and his brother have been talking about the gospel a lot recently and his brother wants to get baptized! So, we are meeting with the both of them  tomorrow . We also went doorknocking  Monday  night. We knocked on this one house and this lady yells out,"who is it?". We yell back,"the missionaries!". To which she yells back,"come in through the back door!". Well, we went in through the
