Hey everyone,
Yeah im doing good how is everything there? Has the craziness settled a bit since the wedding? It sounded like fun. My mouth is good. It will be better any day now. Dont worry about it im fine.
Flying to big island was so fun. The airport is outside so you get off and walk down stairs on the run way just like the old days. The whole thing is outside just like 8 tiki huts so its weird and very small but its so cool. Thats the island with the active volcano on it so you can see it smoking and there are the rocks that are dried lava everywhere. You can see right where it ran down the huge mountain. Its a super cool place. So ya i already told you we missed our plane so we got on the next one and had to be picked up by the AP's at the airport which was nerve racking but i became way good friends with two of them and actually they flew to maui on wednesday to go on splits with me because we became good enough friends. That was way cool and im glad i got to do that. So anyway after the aps got us we drove to the Kona Temple which is right next to the stake center there. Its a really small temple but beautiful. Unlike any temple i have ever seen. I have pics but ill send them next week. We took pictures in front and then went in to hear elder pearson talk to us. That was good, it was one of the most like motivating influetial talks i have ever been given. It was way good, It also went all day so we didnt even get home until like 9 that night but president bought the entire maui zone burgers at burger king so it was worth it. He is a way cool guy. So ya we didnt go in the temple but i was at it. Very awesome experience.
Everyone were teaching is going good. They wont come to church ever but they are progressing with building testimonies. Were going to try some new approaches this week with Ian and ryan and if they are butt heads about it then were dropping them. Last week was a rough lesson so ya were not sure what to do with them. We will figure it out though. That lady patricia i told you about fell and broke her arm so she couldnt come to church but she will be baptized in june. Same with that family i told you about so there is 4 baptisms that will be done this month. Thats good.
We hit vision 100 today actually. President called and we got it so thanks for all the praying and everything you guys did to help us achieve that. We couldnt have done it with out all of your help. Now were going on to june so we gotta keep the faith that we will reach it again.
I miss home less and less each day. I mean i still miss it but its not constantly on my mind anymore. Im not sure if thats good or bad but i think its good.....
Today were going to a tongan memmorial day party at the lahaina beach park. That will be way fun because were all going, including foley. He is just like a huge fijian older missionary who i love haha.
Well have fun in colorado this next week. Drive and fly safe and hopefully you can email me from there. Let me know how everything is. Thanks for all you guys do and ill send pics next week. Love you tons
