Nothing but Rotten Nonsense
Well, our past week has been wack.
Most of our finding efforts were spent texting people about a Live Drive Thru Nativity at the Temple.

There isn't much that has happened since Thursday, but here is what I can report on.

A sudden change in the wind with a chance of drumsticks
I am so sorry, I had made this all ready to send just a few minutes before, I only had to put in the pictures. Right then my companion had to call my mission president, so I wasn't able to send it out on time.

My Time Has Come...
I'm not happy right now, I just finished my weekly and was about to press send, but I instead pressed paste and deleted all that I had just wrote. The first half of this email will be for last week...

Winters invitation
Brrrr, it's cold out here.
Who would have though that Orofino (labeled the Banana Belt of Idaho) would have such low temperatures before Halloween?

Brand new missionaries/ splitting logs
Hello everyone, I'm jut going to say right now, this email will be a little shorter this time.
Spontaneously attacked by a swarm of Lady bugs
I bet you never heard a more strange title for an email.
It's no competition, but I'm just saying, it's a strange one for sure.
Well here is the story.
We offered service to a family that needed their flowers dug up. They plan to put in something the deer won't eat like bleeding hearts or something. My companion was a landscaper before his mission. He knew how to make the job quick and easy for us. It would have been the perfect service if it hadn't been for those ladybugs. We dig up the roots of these flowers and in big clumps falling from the roots and dirt there were thousands of ladybugs.
It wouldn't have been a problem.... If they would just sit still. After a few minutes we had swarms of ladybugs just flying aimlessly all throughout the area, getting in our hair, calling up your pants legs and just being plain annoying. I never though I would see so many in my lifetime!

Game Time
Alright, quite a bit has happened for me this week. But because I wrote so much on an unpleasant experience I had I will only touch on 3 subjects for today.
