It's a New Year!

I’m doing dandy over here in sunny hot Riverside. The missionary work is slow we are doing the best we can to change that. I’m good although we have not been able to work a lot because Elder Kligge was sick last week so we didn’t get out and do a lot work. I had a little cold but its gone now. But we are better now and we are starting this week off good so its gonna be a great week. This holiday season has been a little hard but it was amazing to see you guys and talk with you guys!

I still hate driving here and I don’t like the car and the worst thing ever invented is the black box on the bottom left corner of the windshield. It’s a gps tracker and it checks your speed and it tells you if you are going too fast and it watches the way you drive so if you drive crazy it tells you and it tells the mission office that you drive crazy. I hate it. Haha!

I do miss home and I miss SNOW. I miss the animals. I miss my family a lot and I miss my friends and all the other crazy mountain people.

My new companion is a country boy so he likes guns, trucks and freedom. Haha. He is pretty cool. We are just trying to get as much work as we can done but this area is hard and the ward is not missionary minded YET but they will get there. There is a couple of families who are but we need more we are doing our best.

I am still always tired and I have been working out a lot cause I’m gaining weight and there always a lot on my mind. But I am doing my best. Thank you for the quote, it really made me think, thank you for everything and for helping me out always. I love you and miss you all!
