This is where they make "oring", which is a like coal that they cook with, but it isn't coal. It's hard to explain.
Hey everyone this week has been way good. We saw conference a week later than you all. It was way good and we had a lot of people at the stake center. Jim Weaver, the American I teach, went to all 5 sessions of conference and loved it, I am so happy about him. He is being baptized this Saturday so that is so awesome! In conference Quentin L. Cook talked about how awesome the women are in the church (no offense to dad) but I couldn’t agree more! I am thankful for all the women reading this! I hope work is okay mom, I am glad tax season is almost over so you can relax and enjoy life. I can’t believe it is snowing haha that is nuts. It’s April! It is about its hottest here that I have seen. It’s fine though. That is good about my truck so you don’t have to deal with it anymore. Thanks for taking care of it. Ha yes I remember that story about the drinking fountain. It has been so long I don’t remember the details but something along those lines. I remember crawling under it haha. That is cool that Stephanie got engaged, tell her congrats. I bet her guy was in the Bacolod mission. Back then I believe it was the only mission speaking Ilonggo. Also I am happy you all enjoyed Joe's homecoming and everything went well. Elder Jenkins and I have been cooking a lot together fairly healthy haha. It is way hard to eat healthy but I haven’t gotten fat...yet. I have a few funny stories this week. We went to a barangay called Ilabas and there we were teaching a less active father, non-member mother and a nine year old non-member. We had been at there like maybe fifteen minutes and we were not yet started into a lesson, just talking about stuff. Then the nine year old said to her mom "Hey, that kid (me) looks like an American!" And the mom was like yeah he is American haha and the little girl was like "no way! he knows Kinaray'a but he looks like he is American, he is white!" and the mom told her again that I’m American and the little girl would not believe her since I was conversing to them in Kinaray'a haha it was so funny. I also got to see my first cock fight this week. There were tons of people standing in a circle in the street so I walked up and since I am taller than everyone I could see them fighting with the big metal things on their feet. It was weird, but whatever, haha I don’t really care to see it again, but it was a cool experience I guess. One killed the other and the winner won a bunch of money haha. Anyway this week went really well. No problems here. Love you all! Fram Bam: That is so awesome about the snow I bet you love it! My week was way good :) I miss you lots and can’t wait to talk to you next month! Love you! Dad: That is too bad Dixie got beat by PV. Who are the good players on Dixie? And I can’t believe it is still snowing that is way weird. I wanted to tell you something dad. In conference Elder Richard G. Scott talked and in his talk he brought up how one of his kids said "dad, your my best friend." I am way thankful that I feel the same. I always loved hunting and fishing and going to games and golfing, etc. Sometimes I had other stuff going on, or chose differently but I want you to know that I feel so lucky to have such an awesome dad that I can really say is my best friend! So thanks for being awesome! That is cool about Steph's fiancé going on his mission to the Philippines. Maybe I will be able to speak to him in ilonggo! Anyway, I Love you dad!
