Dear Family!

The weeks just seem to go by faster and faster every time, it seems like Monday was just a few days ago....crazy... anyways.

This week, so much good stuff. We got a new investigator named Jared, he was the guy with all the hair that came to church last week, and he is awesome! We didn't see him this Sunday but hopefully on Tuesday. We had no kids come to church this week, which was so weird...this is the first week since I have been here that we had no kids at church, but oh well, we just need to get better at it for the next week. 

our family we are teaching now, Mary and Cheyenne, they are really cool! Her mum is a member in Masterton and they visit her a lot so her mum has told her how to treat us I guess haha and they just have the best questions, super cool, Cheyenne said he's not really religious but he is cool as! They had awesome questions, like the Restoration video we showed them, and then we got talking more about Joseph Smith and then how he got martyred, and they flipped! They were all like what?? he got killed?? haha it was crazy, but they got into it pretty good, we got home 20 minutes late because it was going so well, and President Hudson understood. It was great! 

It rained during our sport day this week, but it made it so much more fun! We got to run around in and outside of the school that one of our members is the principal at, a couple things got broke, but we got it sorted. 

Decorated a Christmas tree at the rest home, twice. It fell over like right after we were done and had walked away, and so we just threw all the stuff back on again, it was okay. 

We had some drama with Joe after sport day though...the kids got in a fight and then it got out of hand and it started out okay, but then bad things happened, Joe's mum flipped out, but Tommy's mom will get it sorted. Other than that, pretty awesome week, had a less active family all come to church, even the son who gets bored from it but hey, do what we can. Great week, can't complain. Less active work is some of my favorite, at least with most less active families. 

We get fed every day, we will be having Samoan food on Thanksgiving haha :) Yum! Love and miss you guys! I love it here, and it just goes faster and faster all the time... Thanks guys!
