"I'll get there eventually"



Heisan!
Things are going a lot better! All I need to know is that I'll get there eventually and it makes it all worth it. Thank you so much for checking that out for me even though I didn't ask. You guys are awesome.
I did go see Scott's brother. He was super nice and really into the outdoors (like everyone else in Montana). I did try to bring up church thinking something miraculous would happen but was quickly shut down. Oh well, I did all that I could. He was super cool though and was happy to chat with someone related to me. He definitely looks like a Moffitt with white hair and a white hunters mustache.
I'm sorry you guys are getting a hampster. haha.
Thanks for doing taxes! I didn't even think about that! woohoo! I need to get a digital camera so I can take pictures of how lovely Montana is..........
Im getting transferred on Wednesday to the tropical paradise of Colestrip. hahah. Technically its in the US, but it might as well be on another planet. I might die and Im super sad to leave my 2 companions Elder Payne and Wasden. They've been awesome but Its time for me and Elder Coleman to see what we can do. We're doubling in to a new area and neither of us have been fully trained yet. President Mecham must trust us. I'm pretty excited because I'll learn and grow a lot, especially when it gets tough. I know I can do this.
I met a crazy redneck truck driver dude from Ramona here in (my old) apartment complex. He's a super cool resent convert who loves to talk. He has a super strong testimony and is sad that his work keeps him from his wife, one year old son, and church. Count your blessings! His name is Charlie Hartness and he has some nieces and nephews at Ramona High (Chris and Amanda Hartness?) I think ones a junior and the others a freshman. Maybe Melissa and Patrik know them. If they're anything like their uncle, then they must be pretty crazy and awesome.
My big thing right now is drinking a bunch of water. I got a water bottle with a straw type of thing and I drink like 100 ounces a day. Its amazing how much of a difference it makes and it eventually starts to taste good. I get more energy for sure and at first I constantly had to pee. Oh, and elder wasden (who's allergic to gluten and dairy) got me to fall in love with Almond Milk. The vanilla sweetened almond milk is what I get every week now and its super good and supposedly more healthy than milk.
Good job feeding the Elders back at home! I've been getting fed a lot here in Billings and hopefully it will continue in Colestrip.
I already have a hole in one of my shoes! the sole cracked and water gets in them when it rains or snows! So we must be doing work. I can email everybody now so send me some emails of people who wanna hear from me. What's brooks'?
 I know that the church is true. Conference was super awesome! Elder Holland and Bednar are  always amazing. Everyone of the apostles just go to show how true the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is. They all spoke boldly and its awesome to be apart of the missionary work in the latter days. We don't have much more time so make sure you all do your part as member missionaries and find families for us to teach! Pray for missionary opportunities, its crazy to see how they'll come to you.

Jeg er glad i dere veldig mye,
