extremely long email

well things are going good the football team
here is a lot like olympus they have their red
and white game friday so we are going to try to
make it to that and the olympics are awesome
i wish we could watch them, sunday night
we were at dinner and they were watching them
so we got to see china and us in the womens
olympics so that was alright but i would have
liked to see swimming or basketball or track or
somthing a little more exciting. thats crazy that
andy is leaving today man i cant believe it
everyone is gone but on my part this morning has
been quiete the dissapointment we woke up and called
the zone leaders for permission to go out early
to hunt and they said to call the assistants and
the assistants said call president and president
didnt want us to go so im kind of mad at the zone
leaders cuz they were cool with it last week
but oh well i will have to come back some other
time. but yes we have 2 babtisms saturday the first
one is randy brook he is an 18 year old who took
the lessons a year ago and is way cool his mom just
didnt want him to get babtized until he was 18 so
now we have just been reviewing and reteaching and
the other one is danielle and she is a 9 year old half
navajo and half apache so its been a tough one but
we have met the requirement of getting her to
church 8 times and taught her everything so her
babtism should go well hopefully she will keep
coming to church. so thats who we are babtizing
we are working with a few other people but nothing
to serious yet so we got to keep finding new ones but
interviews are tomorrow with the pres so that should
be good its also pretty cool and this transfer is
already almost over its crazy how fast it goes it
will be interesting to see if i go down to the
valley i probably will but its ok i missed the
most of the summer so thats about it i love you
and take it easy love elder knaphus

Mandy, will you add the link to Andy's blog spot? I tied and I can't tell how to get it where you want it.

I love to see that Garr is having fun doing missionary work! Fun and missionary work shouldn't be mutually exclusive.
