Hello Family!

 

Another transfer has come and gone. I seems crazy how fast the time flies. I got transfered to Hedges Creek in Tualatin. Super fancy place. I really like it so far. i have not met anyone really yet because all we did yesterday was transfers and dinner at Carl's Jr because we didn't have a dinner. Crazy thing though... This is Elder Mecham's second area and my new companion served with Elder Mecham in Oregon City four months ago. Also super crazy Elder Grimes lives out Sunnyside and graduated from Hillcrest a year before Krystal. I think that this is going to be a bit of a testing ground for me. I think that I am really going to have to draw my line in the sand and not move from it. He goes home in October and is really ready to be done.

 

Funny story (also shows how much of a cluts I am)... Saturday we decided to take 30 minute lunches so that we could go out for ice cream as a district at 8:30 that night. So we all met in Dayton and went to the new ice cream place by the park. So after I get my ice cream i go over to the park and start to play on the merry go round with some other missionaries.  So i get it going really fast and then go to grab it and jump on... didn't work so well. I ended up doing something to my hip and now I have a limp and have to ice my hip and Sister Morby called the doctor and gave me some PT things to do. The worst part of the whole thing is now I am in a bike area.

 

Sunday I was also given a bike by Brother Walker. It is super old but I didn't have to buy one. I think that I might have to end up buying Elder Grimes bike when he goes home but we will see how this one works for now.

 

Love you all and know that the gospel is true.
