Hey!
Unfortunately I do not have a lot of time to email as we have to be in billings in 45 minutes so I might make this weeks emails a little short. Besides we get to Skype this Sunday!!!!!!!! I am seriously so excited! I have no idea where we are going to do it yet though! I will figure it out and email you at some point this week and let you know! I can not wait though! Hopefully we can stay really busy so the week will fly by!
This week was honestly pretty slow. I think we taught a total of like 8 lessons which is pretty low. We did have a couple of good lessons with T. who was supposed to be baptize this last Saturday but that didn't happen. She still wants to be baptized though and it will/should happen by the end of the month. It was pretty sad to see them miss church this week though. Apparently something came up but I am not sure I am buying that. We will see though. The other two people we have on date for baptism ditched out on us this week and the one has stopped responding to our texts and calls so I am not sure what is going on there!
We had a great testimony meeting yesterday. The testimony meetings in this ward are amazing. The last one went over 20 minutes but was great. It was so good that a member of the Stake Presidency who happened to be there told all the Bishops in the stake that if they get a chance to go to the Laurel Ward during a testimony meeting they wouldn't regret it! It was awesome! The lesson yesterday in Elders Quorum was also really good. It was about our birthright. I really enjoyed it!
As for me I am doing well! I am no longer sick but I am sick and tired of people canceling on us haha! I will make sure to send you a copy of the story I used in my devotional. By the way the Walmart here in Laurel has like 5 of those $50.00 dollar trail cams if you are really wanting to get another one for dad.
I love you tons and can not wait to see you on Mothers Day!!!!

Hey Dad!
Well that is a bummer that someone stole the trail camera. I think unless you find some sort of secret water hole your best to put the trail cam way out in the middle of no where on some trail or in an area that looks like a bedding area for deer. Maybe look at these .................. & .................... & ............... just make sure that Mom doesn't put these secret cords on the blog! Haha but really! We don't need anyone stealing anymore cameras! (Okay...I left the cordinates off :)
This email may be pretty short but not much happened this week! We still have a few people to teach but like you said we are starting to focus on finding new investigators as ours are running low! Hopefully we will be able to find a couple new people to teach this week! My new companion and I get along pretty well! He is a good missionary who has a strong testimony! I don't know if I told you this but he has only been a member for a year and a half. He even baptized his Mom two days before he left on his mission!!! So cool!
Well I love you tons and am so pumped to see you when we skype on Sunday!!!
I hope you have a good week and do something fun!!
