I miss your yams...

Hey again,   Man do I miss Thanksgiving. It really sucks that Canada doesn't do much for Thanksgiving. But oh well, c'est la vie. I wish I was there too, I would have loved to be with the family. I miss you guys.  Great job on the piano Boo! It was cool, I played that same song for Deji's baptism, although I didn't do as good of a job! It sounded really good.  It's cool you got to meet the legendary Brother Williams. It was cool to see the other missionaries that were there too! And Elder Smith's mom was there too! Did she drive all the way from California for it, or was she there anyway?  Also, really happy the Utes won. A little worrying that we have slow starts in games, that could be really bad for the championship game. Hoping the Utes can come out on top, even though they've lost once already, they should be more ready now!  This last week has been absolutely crazy. So since Wednesday, we've just been trying to catch up to what&

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey all, I really like the Christmas card photo! It's really really good. I showed it to one of the missionaries here and they said, "THAT is YOUR family?" She clearly couldn't believe that I came from such a good looking group. Dad, you're looking a little older though with that beard! I'm surprised mom let you keep it for the pictures.  SUPER excited that the Utes won! It sounds like our second string is doing really good! Wish I could watch them play. Keep me updated about how they do. I definitely don't want to see them lose to the Y, it would be insufferable to hear from all the other missionaries.  That's also pretty cool that you're going to meet Bro Williams! And yes, Elder Boardman is going home this week. Honestly he's been my best companion. He's changed me so much. Let me know how his homecoming talk goes if you go. And yeah, its a pretty sick video. They had a blast putting it together, and there were a lot of peopl

Q & A

Questions: Have you had/Do you have a microwave? (This question came up because there has been a lot of complaining as we've been waiting for the part for ours to arrive so it can be fixed and it's been "SO FREAKING HARD" to reheat things, haha. Dad told Joey he'd better get used to it since he doesn't think he'll have one on his mission. So now we have to know...) Are there any other "luxury" things that you don't have there that you took for granted here? What have you been studying recently? What goals are you working on? When are transfers?  How was your week? Hey all! Sounds like it was pretty good this week. Speaking about screen time, I highly recommend this app we got, qualitytime. We just got them on our phones, and it's so nice. It monitors what apps you use and at what time. It makes it easy to see what bad habits you have. You can schedule out break time. Dont know if its available for iPhone, but you should s
