Hi Mom
Just to write you this week real quick. Not much is new around here had a baptism yesterday not many people were there but the hermano was really emotional afterwards it was a really neat experience. I wrote Dad a pretty cool experience I had this week tell him to tell it to you. I'll send pictures next week if I can I don't have my camera on hand. If you send that package with Ricky I could use a few pairs of new garments I have holes in a few right now and am not too sure how long they'll last. I'm size 34 on bottom and medium on top whatever material is fine just need them pretty soon. I get to talk to my president this week I'll ask him about calling Dallin but I'll be afraid that he tells me that I won't get to call for mother's day if I call home. We'll se what happens. I was just wondering if you've talked to Abuelo lately I wanted to ask him a few things send me his email address please so I can write him. I love you Mom and hope that everything is going well I'll talk next week.
Love Elder Davis


HI Dad

That's great about Ammon and that all have completed years (I'm not sure how to say it in English) all the crazy stuff should be out of the way for now hopefully. I have been working pretty hard lately and just making the most of my time it's been super crazy but been so worth it. I had 1 baptism yesterday I feel like butter lately the baptisms have just been slipping away for more that I try hard and get these people going they just don't want to. I get really stressed out about it and try to look at what I'm doing wrong so that i can fix it and get on track again but even then nothing comes super fast in fact it goes slower. I suppose that i have something to learn from these experiences maybe more patience I really don't know but I've been fasting and praying about it and waiting for the results to come I have faith it's soon. Anyways besides that not much else is going on I have just been doing my very best and that's all. I did have a pretty cool experience I felt like Ammon in Alma 18 when he talks to the king Lamoni. I had a lesson with and investigator and she had a few doubts about a few things in that moment I read a scripture and then afterwards she tells me that's exactly what I was thinking how'd you know? I felt really cool and then explained that sometimes we don't read mind but rather HF gives us the words to be able to help the people. We should baptize her this week so it's not too bad. I think that the mission is going to be very blessed soon if we all work that way. In May we get a vist from 2 apostles and a member of the seventy presidency. Elders Cook and Oaks are coming as well as Elder Rasband. I feel that that will be a really sweet experience and that we'll all be very edified( or at least very well reprehended ) and that we'll all get something out of it. Anyways that's what's new around here hope Mom isn't breaking her back with all the favors and little things she has to do. Well I love you Dad thanks for teaching more than nothing with your example. We'll talk next week

Hi Mom

Saw the video I remember that moment so well almost cried again but held back a little. I've been twlling everyone that I see that Dallin is going on a mission. Guatemala is a nice place it's calm there I think you have more to worry about here and in the north. Well Mom not much has changed this week nothing new to write I love you and hope that you have a good week. I have changes in 2 weeks I will keep you posted to where I'm at so you can tell Ricky.

Love Elder Davis
P.S. I did get your txt


Hey Dad

I'm so excited for Dallin I know he'll love the mission it's such a good experience and good time to grow. From what I undestand Jensen Nevitt is in that mission so he won't stand out too horribly bad. I really hope he develops his talents before he goes it doesn't matter that he has alot of talents if he doesn't use them so I hope he learns to use them. Poor Mom she'll learn someday but she'll be a mess that day but a happy mess. No news on the other couple the judge hasn't shown his face and wont answer phone calls. Don't worry their time will come. I have really learned to appreciate time in the mission and it helps me focus on my goals better. I love you Dad don't have much to write this week.

Hi Mom

Happy Valentines day Mom I love you. Hope you and Dad get some good time in today I know it's hard with kids and sometimes we don't make it any easier but that's why I'm grateful you're my mother. I hope that Dallin is really getting ready I wish I would have prepared better but can't make time go back that the nature of things. I have been thinking alot about Grandpa lately I feel at times he lets me know how proud he is of me I really hope that he enjoys his b-day on the other side today. Good luck with the weddings this month Mom you never stop but I am grateful for your example to me. I haven't talked to my mission President yet he's busy but I'll call him this week and see what he tells me. I think it'll probably be for when he leaves for the field that I get to talk to him but we'll see what happens. The investigators are all doing good but no one is really jumping to get baptized right now so we'll see who gets ready soon. The judge hasn't answered our phone calls lately and we've basically given the case over to our mission president and hopefully he gets that taken care of. Well I tried getting the pictures on the computer but this computer is weird and won't let me do it I'll try again from another one next week. I love you Mom

Hi Mom
That's great tell Krissy my email or something or get his and I'll shoot him a quick email. Hope everyone gets all the way better soon. I'll talk to my President this week and I'll write you next week to see what he said. I say he's going spanish speaking but we'll see that'd be nice if the family could converse completely in espaƱol. Tell Bro Mowers hi for me and that's great news about the bead parties and weddings I hope that all goes well for you. Well my President frowns upon it he really doesn't like it too much but I'd like to come back after and show you a few of the people here so I don't know whatever you feel like and I'll make plans for it. As for the couple that needs to get married the judge is really being a pain about returning us the money and paper work so keep that in your prayers these two have been waiting patiently since november so we'll see what happens. My comp's name is Elder Guerrero from Tijuana and he's the DL I just needed to fix things that I wasn't doing well or not doing at all so I talked to President and he gave me a time off from the DL duties. I just didn't feel like I could be a good leader and tell them to do things I wasn't putting into practice myself so I asked him some time off to get back straight again and actually it's going really well. Anyways enough about that President just tells me not to look back and if I give it 100% the Lord will prepare me to be leader again. Well I almost forgot about Angela tell her happy birthday and that I love her hope that she has a great birthday. Ok Mom well that is about it I really didn't have much else happen this week just working hard to get people ready for baptism. I love you Mom and hope that everything goes well this week.

Hey Dad

Dallin can't go for very long without hurting himself can he. He's just a mess I remeber when we were little and we were playing tag or something like that and he hit his face in the corner of a door and his eye swoll up like a ballon. Hope that he isn't a walking accident in his mission that'll be a real treat for his mission pres. Oh Mom she's just too focused somtimes on things I bet she'd walk around all day in PJ's if she had to get something done. Wow that really sucks about the flu I'm surprised that I didn't catch it and it should start to rain soon so we'll see if we luck out this year. 2 years ago they sent people home if they caught and couldn't come back without medical clearance just hope it don't get to that degree. Anyways Pday almost over and I gotta go work nothing new this week. Love you and hope everything goes well this week.
