Week 31 Letter from Elder Hills

Hi, family-

What the heck-how is Jessie already done? Time flies by so fast! I can't believe that I've already used up more than a quarter of my very short two years out here.  It's mind boggling. Whatever, no need to get stressed out about that! This week was better than last and we are back on good terms with our landlady. We did our laundry this morning, on Monday, to avoid all problems. It's all good :)

How did Tim do in the marathon? He's crazy, I'll never do that to my body. I stopped running on the dreadmill in the mornings.  It's just no fun and I'm not getting any better. No worries though, good ol' Timmy Tsiastios is sending me something pretty cool to exercise in the mornings on. I'll add a picture. It's a custom made long board, and it's so rad!

Did Jessie bring any really cool stuff home? Italy must be the best place for souvenirs. I would really like her camera, if she isn't using it. I need something to take pics on! 

You never let me ride your motorcycle, so whenever I say I like bikes, and people ask what I rode, all I can say is a crappy 250 Enduro. My heart hurts to know that I'll be off motorcycles for another year and a half. Enjoy though, it's beautiful weather out here and I see people ride all the time.

Questions:
1. Any change in your housing?
2. Can we help in any way with the housing situation?
3. Have you had a chance to ride your bike lately?
4. Are transfers next week?   

Ok answers:
1) There won't be a change until Wednesday the 10th, we still got a while to go!
2) Nah, just keep praying for her. She'll be ok and so will we.
3) Yea! I hit a small jump yesterday and ate it! I'm going to need some practice before I go back to Highland. Remember the pinkbike drop? Those were good times!!
4) Nah, they're also on Wednesday the 10th.

Thanks a ton for the email, I love you guys a ton! Enjoy your time with Jessie!

Ellie: Double singing would be hard, maybe you should make it triple singing! What are some things that you're coloring? Don't get down about tests, I failed a lot of them! Just work your hardest, and it'll all be ok. I wish I could be there to ride with you, I'm so bad right now! I keep falling off! I can't wait to get good again, have fun at the club!

Isabel: I really enjoyed your talk! Nice and simple! Remember that time when we did an etiquette dinner? I hated that, the food was all cold and it wasn't even good when it was warm. Just nasty! Did you guys buy Rouge One yet? Make sure you own that by the time I get home, I need to see that one. I Don't know any Spanish, but I am running into a lot of Spanish people! It's so crazy how many immigrants are in CO, but they are pretty prepared for the gospel. Can't hurt! Thanks for the email!

Jessie: This is weird, I don't know how to write to a third person in the same email. The most exciting person we are teaching is a hair stylist that lives about half an hour from where we live. She also has a first edition Book of Mormon somewhere in her family. WE WANT IT! I don't have any short sleeve shirts, I don't really like them. My shirts have seen better days though, but they still got some time left in them. Thanks for the offer! The best part of the week was tracting with the zone leaders. I love our ZLs, I wish I was in a trio with those guys! So funny! We went on splits and covered one of our neighborhoods. We got 4 new investigators, and they all have promise. Not bad! Thanks for the email, enjoy being home! Love you tons!
