Gutted for the car - glad it is back. It seems like the police are a little more onto it this time. Not too bad as far as timing goes - a little shorter than 6 months. Sounds like the cabin trip is going well. I love how Mormon Utah is. You go out of town for the holiday and still manage to get the Sacrament. I think my favorite picture was the Wolf 'Em picture. Some how, I assume it was Kaden, was able to capture a rare sighting of Ryan in his natural habitat making a move on Xoch - Gotcha! Oh yeah and also, doesn't Chantelle know the rules? No phones at the cabin! I hope that isn't her phone. Sounds like a good week back home. Yes, Elder Blandford does call himself a half-caste. ("I'm Bland. I'm Bland.") Good luck with the Stake Fair. Hopefully we can all forget the Dead Man's Party allusion...
This week:
This week some drama went down between one of the sister companionships. The STL's came up and tried to solve the problem by dividing the sisters with the other sisters - 3 day trade-off. I didn't think it was a good idea but whatever... the sisters ended up just gossiping about their companions as soon as they were split up so I think the isolated incident spread. One bonus of this whole ordeal is that it seems like I am closer to my companion right now because we saw the sisters not getting along and decided that that looks awful. We are probably the closest we have ever been. President was in Aus this week so we had to wait for him to get back. Once he got back he called me and asked what was going on. It felt really weird, I told him what I was thinking and he asked me what I wanted him to do with the sisters - that was really weird, like really weird. I told him what I thought. He talked to the sisters switched them back and now they are trying to work things out. It should be an interesting week.
We got a new ward mission leader in Maromaku he is going to be really good. Unfortunately we didn't get to see Karani but she is in the Maromaku Ward boundaries. Our ward mission leader is going to drive out and find her because we are out of K's for the month - well, just trying to save K's because last month we went over by a lot. I will let you know what happens.
Love,
Elder Summers
