hey everyone,how is everything going for all for you? everything is going ok out here for me.. today has been a lot more relaxed of a pday with my new companion.. everything seems more relaxed actually.. so yeah he is a pretty good guy, he came out in the begining of october so he hasn't been out too long ethier.. but yeah he is from arizona i guess he is from a little town outside of tucson.. but anyways thank you for my easter package i loved it! :) no i did not hide the eggs but i loved them and wish i could have been home to do the old tradition.. For missionary work, we are still teaching the margaritas and there baptismal date is the 9th of may and i prob wont do the actuall baptizing which stinks but it will be nice to see them enter the waters knowing that i took part in it.. there is this lady that called us and wanted to be baptized i think i todl you about, well we have been teaching her and she doesn't totally agree with everything or hadn't but then we went over and taught her yesterday and she asked for a priesthood blessing so i was able to give her one! it was my first time ever, so you could imagine i was nervous as heck! haha but she jsut called us today saying taht a miracle had happened and that she recieved an answer to lots of questions that she had and told us her whole story.. but it was amazing and i know that my priesthood blessing had part to do with that! so that was a pretty sweet experience.. she told us that she wnats to get baptized as soon as possible, she was way excited and told us thank you as she was crying.. but yeah other than that we have just been doing the normal missionary work..Actually last night we were walking down a street called colfax and a guy stopped us and told us to come over and talk with him and so we did and he said that he knew who the mormons were and thought that they were the nicest people ever, so we talked for like a minute and then we were leaving and i turned around and asked if he had heard of the book of mormon and he said no that he would like a copy, so i gave him one and we stayed there and talked to him and his wife for probably about an hr, staying out past or curfew but it was so so cool talking with him he was telling us how he loves what we do and that he thinks its is so cool.. he and his wife are long haul truck drivers and he was telling me that he had been up through washington a lot and so i asked if he stopped at king city truck stop ever and he said yes that he loves there food there.. haha i was laughing and i told him how i always used to go there and that my dad goes lots! but we talked forever just about little things in the church and then also about life.. he definately made my night! my favorite talks in general confrence were 1 with i think it was Holland talking about the plan of salvation and then i also enjoyed i think it was pino? he talked about how families can be together forever and i really really enjoyed that talk because i never knew how much my family means to mean and how much i love all of you until i came out here on my mission, but it definately has opened my eyes and im so gratefull for the chance taht we can live together forever! but when the ensign comes out all of you should get a copy and read it! so yeah that is what is up with me.. i hope all is going good for all of you, i love you all so much and miss you like crazy! keep praying for me please! take care and keep in touch! i love you all SO much! until next week god be with you!Love Elder Anderson
