Hello my wonderful family!!!, How are we all doing today? I hope just fabulous. That was nice of Elder Smith and Ric to write me lol I was not expecting that lol. Tell them I love them lol. That’s cool you were taught by sign language missionaries! I had the same experience in the mtc, some elders taught us it was pretty cool too id have to say very different. But I don’t really care if Scott and Amie want to make a blog for me, if they want to do it that sounds great with me lol you know me i'm always down for everything. Britt wrote Hill and Mortensen eh lol, I hang with Elder Hill once I week and we have become really really good friends! Tanner peeing in front of the house pic eh lol that sounds pretty funny ha ha cant wait to receive that. I cant believe transfers is this Monday it went by so fast, I have gotten settled in with my companion it will be weird to change. I want a Latino companion though so it will force me to speak perfect Spanish. I can basically say anything I want now but a few times I struggle but everyone can understand me always. Good job of defending yourself Bertney, you should not have to take people being mean to you. But always remember the Lord gets angry when people mess with his people. He will help you be freed from any situation! I cant wait for mothers day too, it will come by before we know it lol that’s so exciting! Scotty just wait till I get home from the mission, you know I will receive the blessings from the mission and destroy you at bowling. Ping pong I am still the same as before, they actually play here a lot surprisingly! I whole lot of soccer. Yes Scotty I love morning studys, its one of my favorite parts of the day !! I know so much doctrine right now I don’t want to even think how much ill know after 2 years watch out Sacramento right. The food here is the same as back home, really its just like the states but I copy, just not as good but the same ya know. When it comes to food, just the hot dogs, which are completos here are better and the bread, the hot dogs are my favorite!. Ditto I didn’t even know that you were working at a different place, but it sounds like it was a good decision to quit, There were trying to bring out the North Highlands side of ya lol that’s funny. Sounds like Dal and Scott have been playing a little excess of pool table eh. That is so many games wow that’s really impressive! I am glad you are all enjoying yourselves though that is so good to hear. I started writing down things during the week that would prob be good to tell you to make things more interesting lol I write them down in my agenda ok so here it goes, I hear Michael Phelps got caught smoking? That is so bad, my companion loved that guy he was his hero he was pretty depressed when the members told us about that. I have had about 40 different people tell me that I looked like tom Cruz lol every where I go here people tell me that even all the missionaries! Everyone always calls me that its pretty funny. We did companion exchanges the other day just for a day and I was companioned up with another gringo. His name is Elder Jolly he is in the pictures I think the one with the phone not sure, I spent the night at his place and took a few pictures, We were sleeping and he is on the 4th floor of a building and in the middle of the night there was an earthquake! I had never felt anything like it in my life lol it rattled our whole house for a whole minute we were freaking out loll. He has only 6 more weeks than I do and we were able to run a sector by ourselves with no problems so that was exciting for us to know. I could understand almost everyone. Now the grand story that you will love. Me and Elder Jolley could not get into any doors for such a long time, and it was really hot, 4 hours of knocking doors ya, and we decided to say a prayer at the park where no one was and ask for some help to help someone out ya know, we wanted to make someones day, After the prayer we just were walking randomly not knowing were and we ended up at the place we had already knocked every door on the street, we decided to just knock one again and as we were knocking I lucked up down a street and there was a guy pulling slowly out of his drive way and there was a 3 years old playing in the road, The guy in the car did not see him and he had knocked the little guy 3 years of age and didn’t feel it and and I saw this and I ran and screamed over there will all I had to get the driver to stop, lets just say that all of the kids body was under the car except his head, he barley missed the tire and the person stopped from my yelling, one more second and he would have totally crushed the kid, the kid only was left with a scratch on his chin and the people came running over there screaming especially the person driving the car. The lady watching the kid fainted and she never caught conscience the ambulance came and picked her up everyone was crying and I had saved that kids life and a lot of depression that night. Also from the power of prayer. It is true when the say God has angels in the world! We could not think for the rest of that day. Later one of the members was at the hospital with them and the guy driving the car was there and told the member that if it was'nt for me he would have ran him over. I Hope you enjoy that story, it definitely strengthened my testimony about prayer. I love you all so much don’t have much time to send pictures I am very sorry next week ill send more and write less ok love you! Love your Boy Elder Eddenfield I am very sorry for spending from my account just tell me if I take to much really, I bought really good good gifts for the birthday boys and some others for the girls, Scotty lucked out I got something for him too.
