Week 29 Letter from Elder Hills

Hola lay-family-o

This has been an interesting week. First off, I just want you to know that the Missionaries you guys have are amazing! I saw some pics of that "Walk With Christ" event, and they rock! Those guys put a lot of effort into that, and I'm really impressed! Events are hard! We got to have a little booth at a fair that was in town last Saturday, and it was a lot of fun. I got to meet a lot of people, and we got a pretty solid new investigator. It was a good day :)

Ok, now to the interesting stuff. There is a neighborhood in our area that is built around a small airstrip. For real! We were driving past, and my companion told me to stop the car. We got out, and saw this plane! It's a beautiful Pitts S-2C. The guy was cool with us taking pics, and he told us that he was just going to work in it! He works out at the airport in Denver, and this is how he gets there. Pretty sick. 

Now, the other part. Working is something my new companion doesn't like to do. I got to kind of force him, but it could be worse. I'm still learning how to work around it, but we will have success this transfer. I got an Email from Jessie, and she is back with her MTC companion! How funny is that? That would be a lot of fun!

Questions of the week:
1.  How has your driving been?  Are you still skilled? 

2.  Has being on a mission made you think more seriously about your future?  Or are you so busy you are focused only on the work?
3.  If we put $100 in your account at the beginning of each month, once that's gone it's gone until the 1st of the next month-are you good with that?  
4.  What are you doing to prepare for Easter?  What are your Easter plans?
5.  How has working with your companion been?  

Ok, answers:
1) I haven't got in a accident yet, but who knows ;)
2) I've been pretty focused, but I think I kind of know what the real world is a little more now.
3) Yea, that would work excellent!
4) I've been watching the Easter Video a bunch of times. Other than that, I have no Idea whats going to happen. I hope some members buy us candy ;)
5) Really hard, it stresses me out! President gave me a blessing the other day to help me out, and I think I can do it.

Thanks for the email guys, I love you all!

Ellie: Hi Ellie! I got to admit, you have gotten really funny since I left! Alannah told me that you said you really felt the spirit in the Cookie room at the walk with Christ thing. You're so weird! She also told me that she is your spirit animal? Is that true? I miss you Ellie, you're one of a kind :) I love you, and I'll try to write another letter soon (today I'm buying paper and envelopes). Keep up the good work!

Isabel: I hate being sick, It's the worst when your a missionary! All you can do is sit there and read the Book of Mormon. No TV, no other books, just the standard works. I am so jealous of that book, I'm reading it when I get home. Do they have other books like that? The Half Blood Prince must be wicked long, and creepy! I want one now so bad, The boat picture made me smile! What are you going to do with your teeth? How long till you got to get them out? I hates Wisdom teeth, mine hurt so bad. Jessie was lucky! Thanks for the email, I love you tons!
