9/13 email

Haha i'm doing pretty amazing. I caught a lame head cold the last couple days but i am finally pulling out of it so i am pretty dang happy about that. :) Yeah we have been working hard up here and doing what we can with the people of Geneva and it has been awesome. I love it here. Isn't that crazy i have been out here for almost my whole first transfer!! It is insane, it has gone by way quick for me. Haha i know i have only been out a little longer than 3months but it seems like it hasn't been long at time and other times its like hmmmm 3 months haha. But i love it hard. I don't have the biggest idea of what is going to happen for me next transfer, but i have a pretty good feeling i am going to be staying where i am at right now, and i wouldn't mind that a bit. But who know they could send me off to Buffalo and i could love the warm winter there! Haha that place would be so cold, and it is a walking area too! But wherever i get sent i am ready to go and will love it there. Hmmm my plans for this pday are actually kinda nice, we are going take it easy. Get all our laundry, shopping and errands done, and then just go to the Victor Mall so i can buy the rest of my winter snerf. Well i have seen the palmyra temple, but i haven't gone it yet! We are going to go do that for my bday next week for pday, that is going to be amazing. Haha nah don't worry about sending that furry hat for the winter up here, just send that brown beanie if you can find it. probably send my high tops up since it will be winter, they could keep me more warm!

Hmmm as for snerf for my bday from everyone.... i wouldn't mind some sweat pants, another hoody, some slippers, haha i'm not sure. Anything wintery or ties would be awesome. Like any winter stuff would be good, or even cool weather stuff, you know gloves, nice socks, scarfs, and any other of that type of stuff. Maybe any church music or talks. Haha i don't mind, a bday on the mission will be different i'm excited for it!:)

That's awesome you guys got to go out and hang out with Megan. Thank you guys for doing that, i bet you wanted to too, but it makes me happy you guys stay in contact with her and hang out with here every once in a while. I love you guys.

I'm glad Joel and kasey are so pumped for their baby, i am so excited for them andi can't wait to see what that little dude will look like! I am so happy for Jess too, how cool is that that dad put her back on the health plan. I love you Jess, and Joel And Kasey and Drew and Tarah haha. Yeah tell bishop woodbury to write me, i would love that.

ALright let me tell you some interesting stuff that went on this week. So for the first time i ran into someone who kinda hated us and tried to rip us a new one... It was kinda interesting let me tell ya. There is this street In geneva called Dorchester, its in a pretty bad part of town, and we went up to this black guys porch and he just laid it down us. I won't tell you all he said but it was kinda weird. Its sad because we just wanted to make his life better you know and bring him the gospel, but his heart was just sealed right up. I wish these people could realize what they are missing out on you know? Thats too bad.

Hmm lets see a good story to make up for that one. Haha ok so there is this crazy black lady who lives on hoffman st. Her name is Alasha, and she is kinda wierd. We were teaching her and telling here all about what the missionaries do and some of the things we don't do so we can focus more on the Lord. Haha and mega awkward, she was all upset we had to spend 24/7 together with our companions, because she wanted to invite me over one night to have dinner and spend the night... yup. So we were kinda like hmmmm, well it was nice talking to ya, see ya later? Haha wow that was hilarious and terrifying at the same time.

So our investigators are doing good. Frank and Ray Johnson especially. Chris the 13 year old isn't doing the best. His attitude has just like turned 180 and it is so weird. But we are doing all we can to work with him you know? SO haha i promise this week i am sending off my pictures since it is the last week of the transfere, just send me my old memory card so i can take pics on my bday! Well i love you guys so much and i hope this letter wasn't too lame, haha i'm just not sure what to tell sometimes! Momma i love you so much, i just want you to know that. I see alot of people out here, and i am grateful for everything about you. You are an amazing mom. :) I love you. Well guys i will talk to you next week!!!!!!!!!

Love,
Elder INgram
