How's Everyone

hey fam how's everyone? i got so many nice lovely emails today- A BIG THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO WROTE! i was needing some love. you guys rock. my random business: i think there are some U of U orientations i need to be signed up for, can you check out the website for me? also i may make a charge on my visa today, we are going shopping and i need to buy a jacket for church. did the old one from publix get cleared after that return? there is this hurricane outside and you'll never believe how much water is flooding this town.. everyone's been talking about hurricane andrew again and its a little scary! after grocery shopping i went to get the car while sis crane waited that i had to walk in water so deep that it was touching the bottom of my skirt and almost up to my knees. in a parking lot. wow. well rickie left to NY early so we passed his info and i know the missionaries will get to teach him up there! we got the address to the mission office up there and sent the teaching record so missionaries can pick up right where we left off. our church is so cool! one day this week we went out finding, and rode from our southern boarder (SW 248) up to our northern boarder (SW 152) it was so long but great and i love biking... maybe even more than i love running.. but its a close tie. okay i keep thinking about this although you'll think its sick but the other day at this part memebers house their little girl rachel who is 3 was laughing soo hard that she threw up but the dad (who is the Non mem) caught it in his hands EW gross. but kind of funny. i wish i had more time to tell you about a young man named joshua we met, who believes that he goes into heaven daily and then wanted to pray with us on the side of US1. we held hands and as he prayed he asked God to send down fire angels upon us, and then he proceeded to tell us we would start to feel our hands burning and then our head to our toes. well i think sister crane is still mad at me for playing along and telling him one of my hands was starting to burn.. and that i'd never felt anything like it before.. but then i couldn't control myself any more and started laughing it was the weirdest thing of my life. something happened i've been trying to make happen for months. the zayas family (omar, michelle, julian, and aalieah) well they live 2 blocks from bishop. but Bishop Quiros' family is always sooooo busy so they'll never do an FHE with us. but we made it happen, Quiros invited them over for dinner and it was great and we left a litle later than we should've cause they wouldn't stop talking but then later found out bishop kept them there til midnight, ya bishop is quite the talker.. and he's cuban. anyways. that was great! so omar and julian came to church yetserday, michelle is still being stubborn but tomorrow night we are ging to extend the date of may 22 to their fam and hope that omar will be worthy to baptize them! we are going to lunch after this with a guy who works on our bikes.. he is 50 but acts like he's 20.. and that should be fun. he said he'll get baptized if we tell him too. i wish it was that easy, haha. saturday was the annual day of service. it was AWESOME but we were exhausted cause we somehow got stuck there from 7:30-5:30 and worked soo much. sis crane and i did 3 projects. first with our ward, picked up trash along a busy road. second helped with this house picking up extra stuff and putting it in these bags for it to get taken away. you'll never believe how much STUFF they had. third we helped build a garden. got some sun that day. i met a cool latin Pedro and am excited for missionaries up north to teach him. we met so many cool people that day! ok so pray for aida, julian, michelle, and kedesha. kedesha came to church yest w her 10 yr old daughter (she is 28) and her little bro. it was so nice to have 3 investigators there! (julian, kedesha and her daughter kimani) well i love you all and hope you have a great week! xoxoxoxoxo
