Let it SNOW

Day 1
We were driving to an appointment with Travis, he lives at home and is working we live downstairs he lives upstairs with his mom and dad h e is like an older brother, anyway, we were riding with him and we were going the roads were icy and like 400 m in front of us we saw a car pull out on a side road onto the highway and get plowed by someone on the freeway. travis is an EMT so we pulled over he checked them out, we directed traffic and thankfully everyone was okay, then we kept going we were super late to our appointment got a little lost but it was cool because we felt like we should help this person shovel their driveway, turns out it was an old lady who was using a broken shovel, Travis drove his truck in the driveway making little ruts and then elder Buntrock and I shoveled a bunch out too, it was a huge driveway and would have taken her FOREVER. so it was cool to do service, she was super thankful, then we finally made it to our investigators house, Harley, he is in YSA and is coming to church, not on date yet but probably soon. 
Then later that day we went with another member to see someone who said we coulkd come back, turns out she wasnt there but her brother was. her brother let us in and he said we could teach him. We taught him and he loved the idea of families and the restored gospel and knowing for ourselves. He committed  to be baptized at the end of the month. super Solid dude. 

Day 2
New Years Eve, it was fun we hung out with a family who has a bunch of little kids, so it was like hanging out with all the nieces and nephews haha it was alright. we played this game called curses, super fun and funny. we should get it and play it sometime. 

day 3 

it's a new year, no one wanted to talk to us hahaha but we got an online referral from someone requesting a Bible, so we gave it to him New years eve and he said we could meet the next day. (which would be day 3) We met and taught him. he was super excited to have a change in his life and to have a better relationship with Heavenly father and Jesus Christ. He was also pumped about YSA. He also committed to be baptized at the end of the month. 

day 4 and 5 
lots of finding, not too much success. We did find at least one person every time who said we could come back though. We also had zone interviews with someone from the mission presidency, so that was good. President and Sister Holmes are super nice.   

day 6 
had a wonderful fast sunday going to K2 then YSA, we gave Zirene and Zamuel the Holy Ghost, super cool super powerful. so grateful for the Holy Ghost and the blessing He is. We then taught someone who is in Lakeside branch (we cover 3 units) had dinner (after having break the fast with YSA) and taught the restoration to someone who had been wanting to be baptized but couldn't quit smoking. she is ready to be baptized at the end of the month and really wants to quit smoking. 

day 7 
we are still alive. we got snowed in. we literally had to dig our car out and make divots so we could get traction to get out of the driveway. We finally got out and were driving to go to the library and we got stuck twice, took us forever to dig ourselves out again. it doesn't help my traction on my shoes is awful so it makes it even harder to push haha  it is comin down here. like 2 feet of snow it is great.
