We did get to see all of conference, it was awesome! I loved Jeffrey R Holland's talk! It was awesome! Everything is going great here, and time is really going by super fast! its nuts!!!! It is weird seeing the mission start coming to an end. Thinking that I won't go to another area, I'll never have to pack my bags again before I go home, only 2 more zone conferences, things like that. I'm excited to come home but at the same time I'm kinda scared ha ha!

We did a family night at our BP's house last Monday. He has the most adorable twin daughters!!!! They are like 4 or 5 and super funny! We are going there again tonight so I'll be sure and take some pics. oh Thank the pages for me! I got their letter on the scout camp today, it was super funny.

This week, we had a pretty cool experience. But unfortunately I'm too pressed for time to write it all and I don't want to cut anything short so I'll write it next week if you remind me. It was a really cool experiance though. We've been doing a shift in our area from a focus on investigators to a focus on inactive members. The senior companion, before I got here was more focused on investigators so we've been making some changes. Not that he does work wrong or anything, everyone just has their own way of doing it as I'm sure you know. Anyways, we've been working a lot with inactives. It is kinda frustrating in the city because if they left the church, it is usually because of something that happened or they got a job on Sundays or something like that. Outside of the city, it was usually just they got lazy. It is a lot harder to convice them to come back here and they stiff us a lot on appointments, but it is always good to see one come back. We've had a few come back since I've been here and it has been really good. I really love working with inactives!

Anyways everything here is going good, and I'm glad that things are well back home. Well I better get going. Have a good week though! Love you!

Love Brady

Questions:

1. We have the silly puddy ready to mail, but there's room left in the box. Any requests?
Well, maybe some candy or another thing of Oreos. Those rice side things were super good!!!! more of those would be good if you have room.

2. How's the family of the guy going on a mission to So. Africa doing? Who else are you teaching? Have you had the baptism for the one you had scheduled yet?
They are good. He's a super good guy. I'm going to give him one of those book mark things from you guys too. Mostly inactives but we do have a good number of investigators too. We haven't marked a date for him yet. He has to decide when he wants to have his wedding before he can get baptized but we are getting close!

3. Do you do your baptisms in the outdoor font you sent a pic of from the top of the building?
yup!

4. Can you bring home one of those cool African skirts for Kaylee and I?
yes, I was planning on bringing home a bunch of though actually.

That is super funny about Shane's Halloween costume ha ha ha!!!!!! you'll have to send me a pic of that! I mean... that is terrible.... oh by the way, I was thinking. It looks like I will get back right before Valentines day, like 2 days before, is that enough time to get a date? ha ha! So I was gonna see if Shane would maybe do a double date thing that Saturday (the 13th) But it sounds like they are madly in love so if they want to be alone that's fine too. What ever he thinks tell him no worries if he doesn't want to do it.

Thanks fam!
