The Grove

Good Morning everybody,
Hope you all had a good week.
We had a bit of a slower week here in Grove but had some good things happen. 
We've had a couple of campfire dinners so my suit smells pretty smoky. And I have really started to build some good relationships here in the ward. We had dinner with one family 3 days in a row and they sent us home with a bunch of leftovers because Elder Thomas doesn't do to well budgeting his money.
 Another exciting story. We got a flat tire this week. Like a day after we went mudding. So changing a tire on the side of the road in a suit was kind of a blast. My blue suit was very brown.
On Friday we had a joint zone conference down in Bentonville. About one third of the mission was there. It was one of the best that I have been to and we learned a lot. President Loveland is really starting to take control of the mission. Brother Hemmingway, the head of the church department of proselyting, came to the mission and we were able to learn a lot from him.  
We saw our investigator family about 4 days this week. The ward members really love them and are super supportive. They decided on a baptismal date. We were so excited! Only problem is that it is 2 days after transfers so we are praying that we get to stay here.
Well there are a lot of other good things going on here that I cant remember but I am really enjoying it. We finally figured out when Daylight doughnut is open so we have been there a few times but they are always out of the 99 cent biscuit and gravy special.
Love and miss you all and hope you have a great Easter Week

PS if anyone can hook me up with a Little Caesar's Bacon Wrapped Pizza I would be forever grateful. I cover a huge area but no Little Caesar's anywhere!
