Snow surprises here



Tuesday:

Preparation Day! We got a map of TWIN FALLS at the Visitor's Center by the canyon. They have a Tesla Supercharger Station there and there were a lot of Teslas there. I have pics of the canyon. We also bought stuff and did emails and played some sports ball.




Wednesday:

We went dairy hunting in Murtaugh. We found some new worker housing units.

Thursday:

We had a new format of weekly planning that we did.

Friday:

3 appointments cancelled.

Saturday:

EXCHANGES! I was with Elder Erwin in our area. We were going to go to Murtaugh but that appointment cancelled. It was a pretty slow day but Elder Erwin said he enjoyed it. Yeah. Glad we saved the miles by not driving 3/4 the way to Oakley.

Sunday:

Pretty normal day. I had to give a talk in the Spanish Branch. It actually went pretty well. I used the time I was supposed to and I did it in Spanish. After that we went and visited a few investigators for the Spanish Branch. And yeah. After we went home I prepared for the great music organization party of 2018, which is happening as I write this.

Monday:

PREPARATION DAY! It is snowing. We plan to go to Walmart then play basketball or something. Right now I am organizing my music for the last time before I get to put it on my SMARTPHONE! WOOO! OK. I actually can't type like a normal person today. 



Shorter one because it was a shorter week. But I do have PLENTY OF PICTURES. BECAUSE GOOGLE DRIVE IS ALLOWED! Ok love you bye.




-Elder Hazeslip

 I kinda ran out of time a bit. I'll have more pictures next week but until then. Bye.

Q & A 

1. Mission Leadership Council - is for district leaders and zone leaders? There were pics shared from the one in Twin Falls this week. Just for Zone Leaders (pretty much general authorities) and Sister Training Leaders. The Rupert Zone has Spanish ZLs, but that is it.

2. Best thing that happened this week? We got invited to sit at the big kid table with the big boys (very successful farmers). We will do that on Thursday.

3. How excited are you about becoming a technology mission and getting smart phones? Very. Pretty much the day I have been waiting for since I got my mission call.

4. Is there anyone in your area/mission that you would like us to pray for? E! And E!

5. Still predicting you will serve another transfer in Hansen/Kimberly area? Yep. We sat down and ranked the Spanish areas. We determined that Kimberly is 7th and Burley was 2nd. 1 was Boise and 14 was Mtn. Home. We will see what happens but if anyone goes it would probably be Elder Snow.

6. What meal or dish do you get fed most often by members? Lasagna

7. What stood out to you the most in your studies this week? Every one of the 12 Tribes has a record. We only have 2. There are 10 more out there somewhere. (2 Nephi somewhere)

8. Anything funny happen this week? We helped some investigators get rid of some... things. We smashed them and threw them away so they would live the Word of Wisdom. Also every single moment on exchanges with Elder Erwin. He is hilarious.

9. Do you need anything? Not really right now. Thanks!

10. How often do you wash your sheets? So far about once a transfer!

LOVE YOU! I'll write the other email thing soon. SMARTPHONE DAY IS THIS FRIDAY!!!!!!

Wow! This week was really good. I know because it felt like a few days, but looking back it contained a month of top quality content. Service: We did service at the Barnyard again. This week they had us pound in like 20 T-posts. They fenced in their entire front yard because too many chickens crossed the road. T: "We just can't figure out what it is that they want out there in the road..." Me (In my mind because I'm not that bold): An escape from their cruel existence? Anyway, I still saw the pig. This is the sow, they moved her in on her own because she is going to have babies and they don't want the other pigs to eat them... Pigs are pigs. S: On Tuesday, we went to read the Book of Mormon with S. As we were talking to him, he told us to follow him to the basement house to see if we could pick up his ammo can full of pennies. We could barely do it. Which reminds me of a riddle (see end for answer). What weighs mo...

THIS WEEK This format of email seemed to work well while I was in the MTC. So I'm going to do it like this again today. Tuesday: Tuesday was preparation day. We  went to Twin Falls. It was kinda rough because we had to go with some other Elders and it took longer than expected. But we did get all we needed. I will send you pics.  Wednesday: We went to Oakley! We got lost trying to find dinner and got the Cruze stuck in the mud. We are going to ask for the RAV4, anyway, I found some dead brush and stuck it under the wheel and we escaped. We had dinner and then went to visit a less active family to see how they were doing. We got lost and almost went to Utah. But we didn't. We went to go visit some other families but nobody was home. I don't remember what day this happened, but we also ended up behind the Oakley reservoir, I got pics. I'm fairly certain we visited Walter today too. He is a legend. He is from Peru, he was a shepherd an...

First P-Day

                    Elder Blashill y Yo                    Introduction of Characters: -Elder Blashill:  Mí compañero por el CCM. He's from Amarillo, TX and is also going to Boise. - Elder Utrilla:  Another missionary in our room. From Utah and going to Argentina. -Elder Hutchison:  Also in our room, from Utah and going to Ventura California. -Elder Foley:  Had 11 years of Spanish classes, but chose to be in the intermediate class instead of the native speaker class because he wanted más training en el CCM. From New Jersey and going to Logan Utah. Summary: So we recently found out that the only reason our district (the missionaries in my Spanish class, 6 companionships) has tablets is because Elder Foley is going on a tablet mission, so everyone else in the class gets a tablet to use cuando en el CCM. We are all very grateful for him. The biggest b...
