Another Beautiful Monday

Hey everyone - I'm going to have to apologize for not getting an email out last week. We spent the day doing leather work making scripture cases (pictures soon to come) so I will try to give a brief overview of this week and last week. Last week was a really full week and we got a lot done. We saw a couple of new people and a few less actives that we hadn't been to in a while. On wednesday we had interviews with President and Sister Loveland and that was really good. I always love being around them; they are just awesome people. 
We had a few dinners with part member families and they went really well. One of them we had smoked brisket that was waay good. I also got to shoot a bow (pretty sure that's approved?)  It was a fun week and also one of our best for stats.
This week was probably even better. We had the most lessons since I have been here and just had some really good appointments. We started running with our ward mission leader every morning. We ran along the lake near the church a couple times about 2 miles and then the past couple days we have been running over Sailboat bridge which is almost 2 miles.  It is pretty fun to run across the lake and watch the sunrise. The only problem is the incline of the bridge, gets a good burn going. On Wednesday we had district meeting and then went to Wendy's for lunch. We had to bring the truck in to Firestone for maintenance. Seth was glad to see us again. haha. We were there with a few other missionaries and had a couple people come up and talk to us which was fun. Although it is kind of sad when the Firestone guys "say see you soon" when you leave. Thursday we got to go out with Stake members and we made a lot of good visits. On Sunday we had Ward conference so we got to hear from the Stake president and bishop. It was a good Sunday. In class we got called out to recite "My Mission Commission" and luckily we didn't mess up.
I am really enjoying the work here in this area and I also get to stay for another transfer! I always so happy even when I'm exhausted. I have definitely been able to experience the "living water" and it just fills me up. I love the Lord and the great work I am a part of.
Love and miss you all,
