Hello,
12-9-13
So it has been really cold this last week. Almost too cold to go out but we still go out. On extremely cold days we ride our bikes like normal but when the sun goes down then we usually call members and have them drive us around to our appointments.
We still go out and make contact on our bikes. It depends on how deep the snow is if we can ride our bikes. One day this week we had to walk and that was absolutely miserable cause I had dress shoes and regular socks on. That night we texted one of the members and asked her if she had any extra snow boots or knew where we could buy some that wouldn't break the bank. We woke up the next morning and she texted us and told us that there were boots on our doorstep. She had a prompting to buy boots and wool socks and thermal underpants and she went and did it then we texted her right after. She is the best! She is so in tune with the spirit.
We eat really well here. We eat at a members homes almost every night. We cook a couple of meals by ourself. We usually just make fast stuff.. I'm trying new foods...it doesn't mean I like them, but I'm trying them.
About the experiences...It's hard here. It's not that I don't like talking about experiences... it's just that this area and my last area, nothing really happens...it's very slow. I'm not in a foreign country where everyone is so apt to listen to you teach them. It's tough stateside. I'm not going to ever give up but it's tough here.
I don't know if you should send that CHRISTMAS package just yet. Next week is transfers and I'm about 99% I'm being transferred. So I won't have anywhere to put that package or anything.
Last week everyone wanted to go out to eat and play basketball so we ended emailing a little early ( that's why my email was so short).
I got brother Nelsons letter and the Davis's package. I loved them both. I love that Piano Guys CD.
That's awesome that Joey's doing his Eagle project!!
Somehow I didn't find out about grandma until today. Maybe noone told me or I just missed it but she will be in my prayers for sure.
I do have a cool experience. So on Friday there was this Christmas thing in the Town Center and there were tons of people walking around so, we locked our bikes up and talked to people for about three and a half hours. No one wanted to learn more but people were willing to talk to us.
Then we went to Sports Authority cause my comp needed a face mask and an employee came up and asked if we were the Mormon Missionaries and told us he wanted to know more about the Book of Mormon. So we told him about it , but we couldn't give him one (BOM) or get his contact info cause he was at work. But we found out that this kid in our ward who just got back from his mission, like 3 weeks ago works there so we're gonna have him fellowship him and we'll try to talk to him again this week. I hope you guys have a great week and I love you all!!!\
Love,
Elder Peugnet
