It was absolutely wonderful to talk to you all on Christmas! A lot has happened since than and it has been a jam packed 4 days. Let me start of by telling you this crazy story about The * family (FLDS lady with inactive husband) so on saturday night she cancelled an appointment with us because she said that her husband needed to go take care of a problem with family or something so my companion Elder Dill and I (Elder Dill is from Oklahoma, he is the best, he loves country music and pick up trucks and working hard, classic country bred boy haha) decided to take a 2 liter of soda over to the sister at like 8:30 because she said that helps her not miss her coffee so much. So we go over and just stand at the door talking to her for about 10 minutes and she was really happy we came by and than all of a sudden a police car shows up and shines a spot light on us and we are like, what the heck!?! and than Elder Dill goes, as a joke, "I hope thats not your husband" turns out he was in the back seat and he gets out and stumbles his way into the house totally drunk and the police man said they picked him up in a backyard and he couldn't even remember his address. His wife, who wants him to baptize her, was so upset, it was the worst feeling in the world. So we basically just said "we are so sorry" and than left...after walking about 100 yards away from the house Elder Dill and I turned to each other at the same time and realized and felt strongly prompted to go back to the house. We went back and knocked on the door and she came to the door sobbing, and all I could think to say was, do you need a blessing?? and she was like, DEFINITELY. So I gave her a blessing. I was a little nervous but as I laid my hands on her head the words just came to my mind and I spoke them. After the blessing she was so much more calm and the Spirit was really strong. After we left we realized about 20 seconds before we had gotten there that she had texted us and said that she couldn't do this alone and needed our help. So amazing. The spirit is real! I gotta go I'm about to get kicked off. I love you so much !!!!!!
