Hello everyone!! Well I made it to American Falls, AND IT'S TINY. It's like 4,000 people and in the middle of no where. My companion is Elder Child and he's actually a trial-missionary! He's from Emmett, Idaho. So like 5 hours away. He has nothing wrong with him haha, just what they decided to do! And he's freaking hilarious hahaaha (peep the photo). So we're only going to be together for 1 transfer then he'll go to a different mission for 2 years! 

So things that happened and about AF (American Falls). We live in a duplex that's pretty nasty haha. There's been lots of missionaries that have served there and it's pretty beat up. We don't have a car which is awesome! (It really is). We walk everywhere so we can talk to everyone! We were walking to our house to get picked up for dinner and we saw these kids playing basketball, so we decided to talk to them. I challenged one of them on 1 on 1 and wrecked him of course. Then we talked a little bit about the Book of Mormon and we set up a time to teach all of them! 4 NEW INVESTIGATORS IN 1 DAY. Unheard of here haha. Later we knocked a lady who was a potential and she's interested as well! So we've found 5 in 3 days. Amazing. I like American Falls too! (Not Blackfoot though). The people are nice and really really like to say Barazoto haha. We only cover 2 wards and one of the ward mission leader thinks I'm like full-blown Italian. I think I'm pretty close, but he always asks me what words mean in italian and I have zero idea. So I just say something that sounds italian and he goes with it haha. 

Cool story... yesterday I was modifying a Nerf gun and I cut my finger open lol. Halfway through my nail and a huge gash on my index finger. I'm ok, I just bled out for a few minutes yesterday :) and Elder Child did mouth to mouth on me, that was weird. (He told me to say that) 

This week is zone conference and we are FINALLY setting our smartphones up. YEET DAB

Well y'all I love it here and I can't wait to talk to you!!! Message me!!!!!!
