Roping @ the MTC

Hullo everyone!! Well it's been a pretty good week, Elder Robert D. Hales came and spoke to us on Tuesday night!!! It was awesome, he talked about light and darkness and how the two cannot exist in the same place! So if we bear our testimonies we can bring light into somewhere that is dark. So I got pictures from the primary the other day and they are so stinkin cute! I love them, I opened the envelope up and was like am I seriously old enough to be getting these. I can still remember sending those off to Tyler and others when I was in Primary, it feels like it was just yesterday. Ha so I totally have my teacher Hermano Clover's help on getting my other teacher Hermana Davis married!! You all know I've been trying since ive been here and the other day I found out that Hermano Clover has a twin brother, he showed me a pic and he's a pretty buff guy so asked him what he thought about setting him up with Hermana Davis, he really liked the idea so he talked to her about it and it sounds like they are going a double ( hermano clover will go with his wife) How awesome is that!! I really can't believe that on Monday I will head of to Chile...... wow this is my last Friday in America! for two years!! Just think tho, the next friday im here I'll be with all of you probably sittin on Roy with my Cactus in hand! Oh speakin of I totally got to rope the other night! I loved it. I met an Elder just outside my residence on the way back for the night and he had two play ropes! So we played some left leg and talked bout rodeo.. He was a steer wrestler, and he highschooled but i dont ever remeber seeing him.. It was so much fun tho! I realized that I really miss roping a whole lot! Sorry that I have two periods this computer freakin sucks.. Wow so I have spoke a ton of Spanish this week and I feel like ive really improved.. Last night we had a great lesson, Hermano Christensen doesn't have a district so we taught him and it was way cool.. He was a recent convert and he asked why he needed to wait for a year to get married in the temple with his wife.. yeah way good question right.. I had know idea what to say at first but then the spirit just filled my head and I went on how it is a time to prepare and how when I was younger I was preparing for the temple.. It was really cool.. Temple was great today! Tengo fe ( I have faith).. Oh so reading in the Ensign, read the article about time.. there is an insert in there from President Monson that talks about how we need to make time for the savior.. It shares a scripture in luke about how the fox has it's hole but the son of man hath no where to lay his head, the other is how he was laid in a manger because no one had room for him.. This is still true today.. We all get so busy that sometimes we don't make room.. and i ain't preachin I did the exact same thing.. It's way easy for me to sit here and say that because of all of you I have been blessed to be in the circumstance that all I have to worry about is the gospel and others not a job or what lawns i need to mow... But just try your hardest and you will be blessed I promise! I can't wait to see pics of the gray mare's baby! Hopefully if she does go gray she will go really dark.. What is Kiki gonna name her? Haha I really want to hear that! Oh and no worries about my toe, its healin up really really good.. so all is well there. Crazy that I'm almost finished here, I've made some really great friends, that's something thats really cool about the mission. I've also taken in the Hermanas in my district like they are my sisters. So I have been named the love doctor because i am constantly trying to get hermana Davis married. It's been so much fun here, some of the hardest yet some of the best times. I'm so greatful to be out here serving my Father in Heaven, this is where I should be becasue he has blessed me with such a great family, and friends and good people in our ward. I hope all is well at home gotta go i love you all!!! Elder Roy
