Utah weather is bi-polar. We had a good 2 weeks of 15 degree average. A high of 20 and low of pretty darn cold. Then it jumped to 50 for a while. Now we're in a mini snow storm. There was no snow when I went into the temple, but when I stepped out the snow covered my feet. This is gonna be sweet, because we are having an air soft war with an investigator and his fellowship.

For anyone's information, airsoft is NOT against mission rules, or the white handbook, or the commandments. So it's all good.

The investigator is Weston Eames, and Gavin is his friend helping him get baptized. They are 11. Weston's sister, Danielle is 9 and also working on getting baptized. I realized I don't talk a lot about my investigators, so I'm gonna start with these guys. They are both studs. They were ready to be baptized before we started teaching them. Neither of their parents have gone to church since they've started meeting with us, but Weston and Danielle have gone every week they've been in town since like November. They've both born their testimonies in Testimony meeting, in front of the whole ward. They read out of the Book of Mormon almost daily, and are getting well known in the ward.

They've got all the statistics against them staying in the church, being kids with no family support, but I feel strongly they will remain active and love the gospel. They always look forward to seeing us every Tuesday night, and they are excited to have this war. We got permission from both their parents to shoot the junk out of them. But they seem pretty confident in beating us. Weston just went out and bought a new gun. So that's them.

In other news, I will be going to BYU Idaho on September 12 to start the Spring/Fall track. I love yall, keep all the support going.
