I have been a super busy Mom lately and have not put Dyllon's last few post up! Bad Me!! I will try and be better and also get the other post up today! In other news, we have finally made it to month 3!!!! Yes!!!! From what I hear, the longest months are behind us! This is what Dyllon had to day on Monday.
Dyllon: Hey Everyone!
Mom: Hey Bud, how are you this morning? Is it raining there?
Dyllon: It's raining up a storm! Do you know if any hurricanes have hit anywhere?
Mom: No hurricanes that I can see. How did the Baptism go on Saturday?
Dad: Hi Dyllon, Dad is here to.
Dyllon: Hey dad! how's it going?
Dad: I'm pretty busy at work these days, but I'm doing well. How has the past week been for you?
Dyllon: So glad that Denver Whipped Oakland. For some reason there is an abnormally large raider fan base in Knoxville. I guess raider nation is everywhere. Yuck. "C"s dad has been working on WOW Issues and we felt like her dad needed to be the one to baptize her, so we worked with him and he received the Aaronic Priesthood yesterday and he's going to baptize "C" this Saturday. But we also found a new investigator who is golden! She's going to be Baptized on the 27th, her name is "A", and one of the "L" sisters, "A", has a solid date for November 10th. This past week was good! Transfers are Wednesday, I'm staying for another 6 weeks in Chillhowee.
Mom: That is wonderful! How are you doing? Are you hanging in?
Dad:Yea that is great to hear about your investigators. Make sure you have the baptism before Nov. 14th. That is your next transfer day besides this week. That way you get to see the fruits of your hard labor.
Dyllon: I'm get a little home sick here and there, but I'm really enjoying my time out here and it doesn't feel like I've been out for 2 months, it feels like I've only been out 2 weeks! The time is flying by! It's going too fast! I figure I'm going to be here until Christmas. I Think i will get transferred on Dec. 26th
Mom: Time has been crawling for me. But we have now made it to the 3rd month! And don't be home sick, we are just doing the same thing that we always do. We are stuck in the rut of life right now. Pretty boring here.I think that I would like you there until Christmas. It sounds like you have made good friends with members of the ward that can almost feel like family. That will be good for you during the holidays
Dyllon: I don't want to sound Prideful, But through this whole experience my biggest fear was that i would be a bad missionary, But Chillhowee hasn't had a baptism in 2 years, it's one of the lowest baptizing areas in the mission, and we have 3 lined up, President Irion Commended us for our effort! So i feel really good right now!
Mom: That is awesome! You two must bee working really hard. Remember what your blessing said. You will be a very successful missionary. And even those who are not interested may still be, you just never know. Just plant seeds always, but sometimes it takes time to grow. I am glad that you have such a great ward, it makes it easier for you to adjust I bet!
Dyllon: When Does the NBA start? How are the Jazz looking?
Mom: Hum....I do not know, but I am going to see if I can get a Derrik favors autograph from clay for your little jazz fan back in Tennessee. maybe dad will answer your NBA questions.
Dad: Training camp for the Jazz starts tomorrow and then regular season games start on the 31st of October. The team is looking good and I have high expectations for them. Mom is going to see if she can get a signed Derrick Favors photo or something from Clay to send out to you.
Dyllon: That would be an awesome Christmas Present! And i have used lots of coupons, But some of the stuff you sent they don't have out in Tennessee, Like Rumbi. but keep sending them! We get fed almost every night, and then they give us the left overs, so he hardly ever have to buy groceries.
Mom: I am thankful that they are taking good care of you. Hopefully they have made some awesome dinners for you! So have you used any coupons? I have a few more for you this week. I have a hard time knowing what to send, so just use the ones that you really like, if you have any suggestions on coupons, let me know and I will see of I can find some. Did you use the quiznose ones? So do you like the restaurant coupons? What do you have out there?
Dyllon: oh, chick fila coupons would be great! and more laundry pods! Thank you!
Dyllon: Well guy's my time is almost up, i have to get going, But i love you all and hope you guys are doing well, i pray for you guys every night! let everyone know i love them and they're in my prayers! Thank you guys for being such great parents! Have a great week!
Mom: I will send then this week! We love you too, have a super awesome week and don't get too wet!
Dyllon: love you, bye!
