well lots of things to write about this week thanksgiving was great we ate a ton and had a ton to be thankful for, got to play some football and then we had a pretty crazy thing happen on wednesday morning about 3 am we had a police officer knock on the door and said that the neighbor had shot off his gun in his apartment and that he needed to come in to find the bullet and apparently we didn't hear it go through our stove hit right near the front door then bounce into the middle of the living room so we found the bullet and tried to go back to sleep but we had like 45 min till we had to get up after all that so we ended up having an early start on the day and then found out later that the neighbor was a police officer and that he had just gotten home and set his gun down and i discharged so i don't think anything happened but everyone is safe and nothing lost but a little sleep well that's my crazy story for the week, this week shouldn't be as exciting hopefully well i hope all is well and that yall had a great Thanksgiving and i will report back next week love yall ! : )

well well this week i said that i would have a good story or that i would make it up so i will let yall decide which it is but this week went well its still going by pretty quick and next week is transfers again on Tuesday so it should be fun im happy either way if i stay or go so we'll see what the lord wants me to do anyways i wont be able to write till Tuesday so i hope all is going well and your always in my prayers : ) well past week we've been helping the other missionaries in my district so haven't had to much time in my own area but we still have dan baskas being baptized on the 13th and hes way excited but yeah so hears the story we were tracting the other day and knocked on this one house she was very nice but said that they were not interested so we went to the next couple houses and as were walking away from one of them we see two men looking for us and as they spot us they flagged us down and said that we stopped by their house but were in the back yard and that they wanted to know more about us so they invited us in and we started having a great discussion nothing too out of the ordinary and then all of a sudden we brought up the book of Mormon and that it was another testament of Jesus Christ and asked them if they knew anything about it they said no and then started unloading all these questions on us if we thought that the bible was false then which scripture were they and where does the book of Mormon correct those? then they asked about the Godhead, and then they started asking about prophets and how they were called, and many more we tried answering most of them but then it turned into more of a debate and they wanted us to prove our point of view without even knowing what they believed( this happens quite often ) so we started in on it anyways 3 hours later we come out of there having accomplished nothing to say the least anyway ruin the surprise it really did happen but the surprise is it usually happens every week but thats what comes with the territory we are asking for some people to set us up and just knowing that the spirit will guide us through it, sorry for babbling on but i hope all is well and another week has gone by without to many issues : ) love yall and have a great week !
