Happy 24th!

Howdy!
     Sounds like you all had a pretty good 24th celebration! There is nothing going on here... haha "Pound The Rock" I love it! Coach Moser is inspired for sure!
      This week was a pretty good week for Elder Weston and me! We are going to have a baptism this Saturday. You remember Michelle and Mario? Michelle is an investigator but she and Mario aren't married so she can't get baptized yet.. She was supposed to get baptized this Saturday with her daughter. Her daughter Reyna will still be getiing baptized this Saturday though so that is awesome! Ted Ortiz is still doing great! At the beginning of our last lesson with him he told us that he wants to get baptized on the 21st  of September. That's a ways away, but it's when he wants to do it as of now, so hey it's pretty sweet!! Sadly we weren't able to meet with Joey this last week because her daughter who lives in El Paso had an unexpected water break 2 months early before the baby was due, so she rushed down there and is not back yet.
        Yesterday we were driving back from the church with two other elders after playing basketball, and there was a car that had died in the middle of a busy road right by an intersection. It was raining pretty hard and all the cars were just honking at him. So when we figured out what was going on, we pulled over and all ran over and pushed him up the road into a turn off area.  It was fun! Good workout too. He greatly appreciated it and thanked us many times. I love doing little acts of service to help somebody out. They are the best.
       With it being the 24th and all I recently read the story that Mom wrote to Grandpa called "IT"S IN THE BLOOD" and all the history that I have with me about our ancestors. My heart burned as I read their stories and all that they went through for us. Wow, it really is in the blood.  We come from an amazing family and I am sure they are all wondering what we are doing or going to do with their name, so we better not let them down!
                          Love ya!
