It was a great week yall!! We had a beatiful baptism! It was so sweet! The Spirit was really strong. Yesterday we got poured on! We went to Huddle House and got soaked on the way. A tornado actualy touched down behind our apartment and we never noticed it. But we were told later what happened. It's official, Elder Elzey will be leaving. He's going to Daphne and supposedly his new companion will straighten him out. I hope so. I will be training again, I hope this new missionary is a hard worker and ready to work. There is a 26 year old fella coming out who has recently straightened out his life and decided to come out that's so great! I might possibly get matched up with him. I took a great nap yesterday. I slept for about an hour. Really enjoyable. I also had the opportunity to go on exchanges this last week with a new misionary and he was a good kid. He learned great things from his trainer. He is obedient, kind and loving. I love this kid. We had some fun and worked hard. I also got contacts yesterday! I am trying them out to see how they work. It's pretty sweet so far but I have tan lines from where my glasses were haha. Pretty embarrassing. We went out to dinner with the Trimms last night more ribs and all sorts of good stuff! Black eyed peas! Rice! Mmmm!!! We are going to be having Thanksgiving with them too! I am in 2 Nephi 28 now. I read through 28 this morning, and it's talking about the apostasy, there is so much information in there. I love the Book of Mormon!!!! I can't recall everything that happened this week, but it was good. I hope all yall had a good week too! Keep having a good one! Love yall!
