WoOOOoooHHOOHOHOHO Family
How are we all doing?? Question where did Bradley serve again? English or or another language. Why was he depressed, you got to always be happy when you are a servant of the Lord. I wonder why he felt that way. If he had to learn Spanish and had a hard time with it than i can see why because my oh my can it be depressing lol its almost impossible to explain yourself or even talk sometimes in Spanish so i can see why it would make you learn to deal with depression, if i didn't have a north American as my companion i would be a bit depressed. But yeah did he tell some good stories about his mission?? That's funny you said that bitty i was thinking about the same thing as you all. I wish i would have spent a little more time with all of you everyday i felt really sad the other day when a elder said that and i was thinking i wish i could have done more with the family! I definitely can see the whole picture now that i am away from everything !!! That's great about Darren going to go on the mission i am not going to see him for a very long time like almost 3 years !! How is Austin doing with his papers he is 19!! Anthony turned 19 too if you see him say happy birthday that is weird he is 19 wow. Dallen, i am really jealous of you punk. Sounds like you had quite the bday i am very proud and happy for you my big 14 year old lol wow that's weird your growing old on me!!! I am glad Jeana's Wedding went well !! Elder Smith has already visited you guys lol that is awesome lol I BET THAT WAS SO GREAT TO SEE HIM! I want to return here after the mission the beaches are awesome, i went to the beach today and i have a few cool picks of it. I hope that makes you all a bit jealous of me lol. Tomorrow i will complete 6 months !! Crazy sauce right. I cant believe it. We are going to eat pizza that is for sure!!!! Man dall you got the wii i am sure the rest of the family is very jealous of you!! Ha ha OK and now whats going on with Elder Eddenfield, I don't know if i am just in the sector at the right time or what but i got another crazy awesome experience for ya!! I will tell you it last first things first That's funny you asked dad i gave a talk yesterday in church actually lol I gave it on the power of prayer i even said a joke, I said, I was thinking really hard about who are the happiest people in the world and than i said the missionaries, because they pray the most lol and they laughed haha I have 6 months under my belt right about now!! That's right it is going by quickly. We have cambios in 7 days!! That's crazy i will be getting a change this time!! We have a baptism this Saturday! He will be an amazing convert. Again happy bday dall. And now the story, we decided just to do random contacting on a street we have never contacted before, since we had a lot of extra time and we had not planned anything to do for that time of the day lol so yeah we decided to achieve are goal of 140 contacts for the week. We first started at a apartment complex because it is close together and we can get them done quickly, but after 2 doors my companion didn't feel good about contacting that area so for some reason we changed to another street. We skipped a few streets and decided just to start on a random street called sur 1 so we were contacting this door on the side street at like 8 at night and there was a family across the street in which had 4 girls little girls and mom and dad. The dad was under the car fixing something i am not sure what, but they were in a gate that was in front of there house. At the top of the gate it was spiked so no one can sneak over. One would have to cut themselves to get over it and it was like 7 feet high. And as we were across the street all of a sudden we heard a little bit of a smash and a bunch of girls screaming and i guy screaming and the wood that was under the tire broke and the guy fixing the car under it got smashed with his hand smashed against his body. We were not sure what was going on but after i heard the screaming a ran across the street, with out even thinking i hopped up that pointed sharp fence that at the time it didn't even matter to me, and the little girls obviously could not lift the nice size car that was definatley a bit bigger than my Honda back home and don't ask how but i grabbed that car and lifted it just enough for that guy to squeeze out! I mean that car had to have been a ton and i know i could not have lifted it alone but something obviously gave me that strength to lift that car so that man could get out!!!! My heart was pounding and they were all screaming. The guys hands were all bloody from the car smashing them to his body but he got out ok and only his hands were bleeding. The crazy thing is though i was so worried about helping him and saving his life i did not care to look 10 feet down the fence to see that there gate was open on the other side!! For them it made the rescue so much better and meaningful because that fence is not meant to be jumped and i did it with out even thinking to help them. No one had tried getting over it before. They obviously excepted a lesson from us and we will teach them during this week! I am very amazed how the Lord helps his servants. I never thought i would really be able to hop 7 feet spiked fence and lift a ton. My heart was pounding that hole night and my back was hurting but it was a great experience for me that i will never ever forgot. So that is my testimony and wow it was such an amazing experience. Next time i will look at the surroundings and go through the door lol but i know if there was no door i still would not hesitate even with the backpack on my back!! I love you all and i hope you have the best day ever.
PS that was yesterday on Dallens bday so that is my present to you to them ok LOVE ALL OF YOU
