Hello Family.
Well looks like we got a few things to go through here. Firstly concering registration we are allowed to go onto the BYU site and get most of that figured out ourselves. Everything short of actually registering for classes because if I recall correctly I had to get up at like 2 AM to actually register for the classes when the time came. We can't do that obviously but we can look up stuff on P-Days so I can do that. But I think it'd be better if on the home front you found all the info as in when I need to be registered and whatnot. In fact just right now I went and logged onto it and put my new e-mail address as this one and did all that. So I can more or less keep up with it, but it'd be better off being informed from the home end.
Okay... Well things are going well. As you can see from the pictures our two investigators, named Minerva and Dianna were baptized. They're doing well, yesterday we had their first FHE with them as recent converts in the home of a member family. And we were quite suprised, the wife of this family is one of the YW's leaders and we showed up and found about half of the YW there with Dianna and they were all chatting and being happy. So they're all friends again. Much to our relief, I was seriously worried that they'd go inactive quickly because of this rift but everything seems fine now. I guess the YW's leaders did their stuff and everyone is happy and friends again. Thank goodness.
Other than that not much else of interest has occured of late. No real fiascos to report, just the usual daily grind of missionary work. The weather has been cray here, the week after Christmas it was in the 70's, the following week the 30's and 40's, and this week it's evened up but accompanied by constant rain.
And.... Um... I really can't think of much else to write, I think there was something slightly amusing but I forgot what it was and we're on a tight schedule today being a tuesday. I think I've never realized before my mission just how many stupid fake holidays are on mondays. I hate it now but I will be grateful for three day weekends in the future. But when you don't have weekends it kind of makes everything difficult.
Okay that's everything, I love you all and hope you have a good week. PEaCe
