Issaquah Week Two

hey everyone!

this last week was definately alot different that what im used to! well to start off though i am now serving in the issaquah 1st ward, they had a mix up at transfers and put us in the wrong ward. but we got a call from the ap's the next morning and they told us about the mix up and switched us back to the wright ward. it was pretty sad though because tigert mountain was a car area, so i had a car for half of a day! but now im back on bike again... and three quarters of my ward lives on the side of a mountain!

my new area is half on a mountain and half in the valey so the riding is pretty tough! this is the first time this area had been on a bike. but it only takes us about 20 to 25 minutes to get to the top of the mountain to go tract up there so its not horrible. this area is so different though, i never thought i would miss the ghetto but i do! my new area is pretty wealthy and missionary work is totally different here! but its going to be great though!

we do have natalie and josh on date for this up coming weekend though! they are great natalie is the mom and josh is her 9 year old son. i did just walk into these to baptism but im just so glad i got to teach them too. they are a great family and the chruch has changed them so much. im really excited for their baptism this week end.

it was a beautiful weekend here too! it was sunny for 3 whole days!!!! i havent seen the sun like that in months! it was beautiful i have never been so excited to be sunburned in my life!! it was a great week end but now the rain is back and everything is back to normal, but it looks like spring is on its way finally.

oh thank you so much for the easter box! it was great i loved it and the new tie was awesome! i hope you guys had a good week in oregon and had a great easter! give the hankey bunny a good rub down for me!

love you
