General Conference weekend

Hey! Hey!

Holy cow! I totally forgot it was Dad's birthday. What the heck! That came up quick! Sorry Dad! Happy Birthday! Haha Anyways, this week has been busier than the past few weeks. We had three exchanges this week and zone conference. Only one of the exchanges was with Spanish missionaries though. Elder Thatcher is a district leader so we had to go on a couple exchanges with the district, so they weren't in my stewardship haha. They were fun nonetheless. We have a very interesting district. Our whole zone is what Elder Thatcher and I call a zone of misfits. Everyone is just a little weird and awkward in their own way. It's kinda funny!

Zone Conference was also great! It was a lot different knowing all the things that they were going to train on since I went to MLC earlier this transfer. It was really good though. Our mission is in a little bit of a rut right now. It's been hard for everyone to find people to teach, so President Ballard committed all of us to do something that scares us everyday. I wish we could start doing that, but I yesterday was literally the first day this week that I have been with my companion for the whole day. 

As of right now, we don't have any  plans for conference except for the Sunday afternoon session. Our branch is getting together at someone's house to watch that session. Other than that, we will probably start trying to plan that out more this week. As for today, we are going to Mt. Hood to do a little bit of hiking. It should be kinda fun. It's basically an idea to get more unity in the zone since everyone is weird and awkward like I said. We will see how it goes. It should be fun!

Anyways, I hope you are all enjoying march madness. It seems like a good year for basketball. Good luck on your talk in stake conference. That kinda sucks! It should be fun though. Have a great week! Love you guys!
