Weekly # I don't even know...

Hello friends and family! This week has flown on by, and I'm not even sure what happened so this will be interesting. But this was a really fun week, and we drove a few more miles than what I wish I had... But life goes on!

Monday we had a really fun p day! We went bowling and it was half off so that was a blessing! The rest of the day we pretty much just had a lot of time to play some sports. We played this new game called butter. It's basically a team based 3 point contest. Really hard to explain, but it was super fun!

Tuesday we had zone conference! So that means we were in charge, and we only forgot about 1 thing! So for me I felt pretty good about it. Luckily what we forgot wasn't a big deal! So zone conference was good, we learned a lot about the apostasy from President Williams! Let me tell you, the apostasy was real, and I am so glad that I am able to live in a time with the priesthood on the earth. I am also thankful for all the people during the apostasy that did so much to get the Bible to the common people and the sacrifices to try and follow Christ the best they could. They made an impact on the world, and without some of them we wouldn't be able to be where we are as a church today! Then after zone conference I went to Richland Center with Elder Moore! We had a good time and met some funny people, it was fun!

So Wednesday I was pretty much in Richland Center for the majority of the day. We did some tracting and actually had some success! We were able to get in and visit one of the people that we met, and set a couple of other return appointments! Then we drove to the middle of nowhere to try and meet a part member family, and that worked! It was super crazy how far away everything is out there. To put this in perspective, Richland Center is the biggest town in their area and it has 5000 people.... That's pretty small lol!

Thursday I was back in my area doing some proselytizing and it was a fun day! To start it off we had to help the Spanish elders find their keys... Which never happened... So we had to help them break in to their apartment! That was pretty fun lol. Then we basically had the whole day open to get out and find some people to teach. We met a cool guy named Mike who will hopefully come to soccer this week! We also had to do our weekly planning so that was a good chunk of time out of our day!

Friday we had exchanges with the Dodgeville elders. So we worked most of the day here in our area, and then we met up with them, which was like 45 minutes away. And then drive back, good times exchanging. I was with Elder Hill and Elder Isaacson this time. Elder Hill is brand new out of the mtc this transfer! So it was fun to be with him for a day!

So Saturday I guess was the day that we were able to work with Elder Hill! We tired to make it an effective day, but everyone in Madison decided that because it was Saturday before st Patty's day that they would not be home. We think they were all getting drunk, but it was rough to get people to answer the door! It was alright, because we had one person say we could come back!

Sunday was a good Sunday! We had ward conference, which for some reason in this stake means that we have a potluck after.... Not sure why we do that but I'm not complaining. We had some real good food! So that was good, than we tried to do some finding and nobody was home again... Super weird but it was rough.

Well that's about all of our week. I'll try to send some pictures but I'm not sure what I have this week! Hope you all have had a wonderful week, I know it's starting to feel a little more like spring here and that makes me happy! So hopefully that helps the work pick up a little bit! Here's something to think about.... If a man has been blind and deaf since he was born, what language would he think in?? Not sure if there is an answer, but curious if you all have some responses. Let me know, thanks!
