Week 24 - Ocoee

The stupid voice recorder doesn't work. It's the worst! So you guys only get text today. 

So I'll talk about two things today! Wrecking on my bike, and Yu gi oh cards. And it happened on the same day so that was awesome!  Hahaha first off the wreck! 

So we were riding up to a three way stop and we were planning on just riding threw it. We were riding on the sidewalk and to get to the road you had to make a sharp turn at the end of the sidewalk. Well I was following closely behind my companion. We had some good momentum going, about 10 mph, when instantly my companion stops while I'm taking the jagged sidewalk turn. So I slam on the breaks and turn the handlebars at the same time. Instantly my head ate pavement.... It sucked. My tooth went threw my lip, not all the way threw, it made a huge gash. And my teeth on my bottom jaw was pretty messed up. I think either the glue that keeps the retainer on or something came off. So..... Yeah that sucks. And I got road rash on my chin and kneecap. BUT MY CLOTHES WERE FINE! #miracles.  I should totally have a big rip in my pants but I don't. It's awesome. Oh I almost got hit by 3 cars this week it was crazy! So I still appreciate all your prayers for safety

The next story..... It's shorter. We went into a garage sale looking for a baseball mitt and not only did we get the mitt we also left the garage sell with hundreds of Yu gi oh cards! We probably have over a thousand. It brings back so many memories! It's amazing. We're actually playing some right now!  We also contacted the people selling the items too... 

I also included a picture of me dunking.... Like Frankie J 

Anyways I love you like always. I'm so grateful for all of the love and emails and letters and Christmas packages it's the best I love you guys so much! I love you so much.

So.... This is my awesome festive desk ⤵️  it's awesome I love the lights! I really gets me in the mode to write Christmas letters. If you want one email me back! I love Ocoee. I also did temple service this week. I RAKED SO MANY LEAVES! We went behind the hedges and raked all of the leaves that were recently trimmed off the bush. I went to town on those leaves. And the results of raking so much foliage is two huge blisters on the inside of my thumbs. The pain! Hahahaha but it was worth it because I was doing service on the temple grounds. We do service tomorrow morning too. So I'm excited to do that too! 

Well it's time to go. So I'll talk to you later. Go share #asaviorisborn I know that you won't regret sharing the gospel with others. I'm so grateful for this opportunity I have to share the gospel. I love this time of year because people are more selfless and the care about others more. People also seem to remember to Jesus Christ more too. I hope that we can all remember our savior during this Christmas season. And even after the holidays. I'm so grateful for all the support and love that I've gotten from you. I'm so grateful for so many supportive friends and family. I love you all. 

PS. Mom get ready for Skype. I can't wait for the 25th! 

Love,

Week 22 - Ocoee

Recording HERE

Thanksgiving was awesome I really enjoyed going member to member asking for turkey. Over the course of three days we had 4 thanksgiving dinners it was awesome. And I actually ended up losing weight at the end of the week because of how much biking we did. It was crazy. 

I really like having p day at the stake center because it's right across the street from the temple. 

Down below is the iPad wallpaper that I threw together I went over the top crazy on it hahaha. Oh and sometimes you just need to have a p day selfie contest with yourself. 

I really enjoy giving priesthood blessings I truly feel blessed to be worthy to hold the priesthood. I feel so in tune with the spirit whenever priesthood blessings are given. I had the opportunity to go into a hospital this past week to give a blessing to someone I've never meet. But because of the Holy Ghost I felt like I knew this lady and I felt her burdens. It truly is amazing to hold the priesthood. 

Yeah.... So I was in a hospital this past week.... I felt like I was going to see my dad at work... But when I didn't see him inside, it was weird. Yeah... I felt a little homesick 

Anyways. I love you guys soooooo much be sure to go check out that awesome new Christmas video A Savior is Born! Be sure to share it with friends and family. Try to help others realize the true meaning of Christmas! I love you guys I'm so grateful for all your love and all of the support you give me. I really do appreciate all of the emails and letters. I hope you all have a terrific week!
