Family!
Thanks for the letters and emails, always enjoy them!
Well, we had some cool experiences this weekend. First off, we had a musical fireside last night, and a group called the Toa's came to sing to us. They are all Hawaiian and are so good at singing; I think they are on youtube. We all got to share some thoughts in-between songs seeing that it was a missionary based fireside. Our investigators were able to go as well, and they went to church, so that was great. They really enjoyed it, and hopefully today we will be able to set a baptismal date. We are having a big family home evening tonight with them and a lot of families in the ward. At church we also had a less active lade come that is starting to come back and she wants her 8 year old son baptized so we will start teaching him soon as well!  This morning was pretty cool too. So some Elders in my district have investigators that are form Hawaii, and they play football in high school. They are both 16 but are huge! They already have Boise state and Oregon state wanting to draft them for college football. So we went to watch them practice this morning at Bishop Gorman high school, apparently its a really nice expensive school here and there have been a lot of professional athletes drafted from there. We were sitting there watching and the owner of the UFC, came and sat by us haha! He's huge! And apparently his son is on the team as well. So that was the cool thing of the day!  Also another cool thing for dad, we have a member in the ward who owns a high end cabinet making company. By high end I mean he does all the work for celebrities here. He told us that Celine Dion was a middle class client of his, Middle Class!  Crazy huh! He showed us a lot of pictures of houses he's done and some of the work he's designed. It's really nice! He's a great guy.
Well, transfers are next Monday so we will find out what will happen this week, I'll be happy if I stay another one cause we're getting more work, but I'll also enjoy a change. So I'm looking forward to finding out.
Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad. Also I saw Randal Cunningham who played for the eagles. Love Elder Smith
