August 4, 2014

Well guess what I'm back in Des Moines in a little area called Walnut Hills West area and I'm close to West Des Moines. 
So I miss Waterloo just a little bit but not as much as I miss some other areas I have been in.  We watched a gang fight before I left and man I have never been so scared in my life then that day it was kinda cool until you heard gun shots but hey you can stop panicking because I'm emailing you.
Well the area I got to is way slow so I'm making a goal that before the transfer is over that we will have double the investigators we have now, start teaching less actives and part member families so hopefully we can get this ward kick started. 
So funny story me and elder Parry switched areas basically and he is in Cedar Falls and I came to his old area which sucks because I wanted to work with him but its all good one day right?
Heck ya we are all going to the Preston rodeo when I get home you cant miss that for anything plus it will be one of the first rodeos I will have seen in two years!  If you could I would love a homemade cinnamon roll from the person that is by far the best person to make them, but that's only if you can haha or some treats or something I don't mind.
man you saw Jordan? lucky haha ya i know she is awesome but so are you! 
Well hope you have a great week and don't work to hard pouring the concrete.
Love you all and thank you so much for everything i miss ya and love you each so much
Elder BRACKEN SMITH <3
