7/16/2012

    For some strange reason, my printer started working.  I'm not complaining but wish I knew what had made it work for the next time it doesn't work.  Scanning documents that I am to send to the other senior missionaries working in different areas is always a lesson in frustration.  Did get some of that done this morning though. 
    We had Elder Hammon's Spanish class at 4:00 then Scott's at 5:00 this afternoon.  I am so grateful to be able to understand most of what goes on in his class now.  Scott's class is a good review of all of the things he has taught me so that is nice. However, Elder and Sister Shaver said they now have faith that there are some ok Mormons in Utah since they know us and one other couple.  Too bad we were in the thick or Spanish because I would have liked to have had that clarified.  I told them I knew many, many, many absolutley wonderful and strong members of the Church in Utah.
  Then the senior missionaries were not scheduled for home evenings so a bunch of them decided to get together and play games.They were coming as we were leaving so they peer pressured us into going.  The best part was seeing Elder Hammon in a whole different light.  He is the University President guy.  He could not figure out some of the games and it just got funnier as the night went on.because he is such an intelligent man and was very frustrated.  What a great group of people!
I think Scott wanted to learn how to play dominoes so he can join the guys across the street!
   There is nothing easy about leaving your family, friends, and home but I am very grateful to be here and to be able to help these people in some small way. I know they are our brothers and sisters.
