Well Hello there! This week was alright. It definitely didn't feel like the build-up to the 4th of July, there just weren't that many people that had the flag up in their yard, no one was talking about it, and (of course) there was no lining up of chairs on the main street for a small town parade. Just not the same, however it was still fun. On the 4th the stake put on a breakfast and had a flag raising. It was good to see that the members of the Church know what is means to be patriotic! That evening we went with some members to a BBQ and some fireworks. Just a normal day other than that. My birthday was fun; the Elders here took care of me pretty well. They bought me a cake and some funky glasses and sang me "Happy Birthday." Then they told one of our investigators (who is very well known for throwing parties) and we went to her home for dinner last night where she made carrot cake cheesecake. MMMMMMMmmmmmmmm.
Other than that we had a pretty good week. It was a little slower, but that just means that we can work a little harder! There is just so much to do here, we are just trying all of our options. We have already seen so many miracles just from being here, and we are excited to see what will happen next! I love you all!

P.S. Mom, thank you so much for being the wonderful person that you are! I love you for all that you do! I got the paperwork for BYU-I, and I need my I-number for that, but I don't know what it is. Could you get that for me? Thanks!
