hello sister. i like all the good news. the benglas suck again i havnt heard anything special about the jazz but.. things are going really well here. the work is going awesome we have 2 people on date for babtism one is the 6 of december and one is the last week of december both of them already have a way strong tesimony and know everything to be true so thats freaking awesome and we have a few others that should get babtized but not sure on when so there is a lot of potential in this area so i enjoy it a lot. thanksgiving should be fun we are going to gilbert with one of are ward mission leaders who is way cool has 3 cute little kids so it should be fun. and on a pretty crazy note one of the elders that lived in our condo who i was really close with elder thomas found out yesterday that he needed to go home for family purposes and so he left this morning served a full time honorable 14 month mission so that is a crazy reminder on how things can change over night but everything is going well the utes are amazing i watched just about the first half of it at a restaurant we went out to eat at i new they would win! but i was way jealous you guys looked amazing i wish i could have been there but there is always that fiesta bowl haha ! but everything is going really well i think i got that package today with the shampoo so i should get that tonight from the mission office but i love you so much too and have a happy thanksgiving
love elder knaphus

win out haha.  thats interesting that we

up and we have lined up for about 8 people to
get baptized next transfer and if i leave i
will die but i guess i do need some more
shampoo im almost out so next package that

really matter what kind. so things are going
really good oh and we are e mailing today
