Happy Valentines Day!!! February 14th 2011

Dear Family,

   Hello everyone, I'm so thankful to have such an awesome family.  I love getting letters and e-mails from y'all.  This last week flew by i cant even hardly remember what happened. Yesterday was kinda a bummer because we were expecting 7 investigators to show up to church and 1 did, so that wasn't that cool.  But that's why our Heavenly Father created next week:).  I'm pretty bumbed because we are probably going to have to quite teaching Kasheem. He has a really good heart, hes an awesome person.  He just cant see that what God wants for him, is right in front of his face.  There is no doubt that we were lead to him and he was lead to us, and that the LORD had been preparing him, but he still has his agency to accept and act on the message (ie read the Book of Mormon), he just isn't doing that right now.  We will see, i know if he starts reading the Book of Mormon every day with a desire to learn from it then he will know the gospel is true. But not all hope is lost, we keep praying.  You know Agency is so cool. The LORD can take anything from us but he cant take our agency, he gave it to us for us to keep and it is truly the only thing we can give back to him. And if we give it to him, he gives us eternal life.  I am blessed to be companions with Elder Stricklin i am grateful for him.  Everything is going great, we are sharing the gospel with lots of people who have never heard it. Keep being great examples and I love you all very much.

Julie,

  Hey bud. Way to go in the talent show! that is awesome, i think next time you should tell jokes instead. What is your root beer float joke? and tell me some other funny jokes.  Tell me what you do to help mom and dad out around the house. tell Darren to do the dishes after dinner too, but you have to help him too. I love you Tons.
