We just saw the angel Moroni put onto the Brigham City temple. It was a really cool thing to see, that was my first time to see an Angel Moroni being put onto a temple, but anyways we got there at 10 and we didn't leave until about 2 PM but at the start it was just overcast and then it started to rain like crazy for about an hour and then the rain calmed down and then they were planning on putting the angel moroni on and then it started to get really windy and they couldn't put it up because of the wind, so then they postponed it a little bit and then they started to put it up and then the sun came out and it was really hot and we were hungry so we left, but i guess our ride that we were with got a call when we were driving back saying that they finally got it up, but i pretty much saw the whole thing because the had the angle moroni sitting on the steeple for about an hour, and they were doing some kind of wiring, but it was still was pretty cool.
but as far as the work goes, things have been going pretty good, we have been having alot of lessons, but our one investigator who was supposed to be baptized on saturday wasn't answer her phone and we havn't seen her in about a week and a half, which is kind of retarted... but she was our most solid investigator and now she has just turned into our most sketchy investigator, which kind of sucks. but her excuse was that her dad couldn't come down from idaho and baptize her but she didn't let us know about this until the last second, but we told her to call us back with a time that we could set a baptism and yesterday she was supposed to be interviewed, but i guess she just bailed on us again...which has been super frustrating, but hopefully she will come around.

but this week we were able to pick up 2 new investigators, which has been really cool, one of them is a 10 year old boy who is pretty much active except his parents aren't really that active and so we are doing the lessons at his aunt's house and he is planning on being baptized on the 30th and then the other investigator is this 30 year old lady. we are finally a little busy and picking up more people to teach, but this one kid that we have been working with is hopefully going to be baptized if his dad can quit smoking, which we gave him a priesthood blessing for so hopefully he can become worthy enough to be able to quit smoking so that he can baptize his kid that we have been working with.

But other than that things are going well, Elder Lanier almost got hit by a car on his bike the other day, but anyways have a good week.

Love
