letter from Elder Hanes

So this past week was a spiritual high... lol First the week started out horrible. We were having zero success and not much was happening and to make things worse and to add to the frustration I had wait for it.... 4 flat tires up to Thursday. But the weekend came and it was better.
Friday we went to the temple for a sealing(marriage) and that was awesome, it was really cool but also made me really trunky(homesick). Then after that we went to a party here in Norman. It was crazy; it was for a wedding and two anniversaries. Oh yea and it was for Spanish people so it was so fun.  Friday was really good. Oh wait did I mention that I got a flat on the way to the party... YEAH.
Saturday was so legit. TWO BAPTISMS! Our investigators made it! It was really cool. I felt bad for Juaqin, he is 56 and he had to be dunked 3 times. The first time his hand did not go under water. The second time his hair did not make it under, but the third time was the charm. Saturday was awesome.. Oh wait I got a flat on the way to the church... NO JOKE!!!
Then Sunday was really good as well. We had a fast as a mission and it went really good and then after church, we worked really had to make up for the bad week and then at night I gave my second blessing in Spanish! It was awesome!! So the week ended really well. WAIT! I forgot to tell you;  I got another flat when we biked to church.... I HAD 7 flats in the week... NOT KIDDING! Count it. lol I was so mad on the last one I wanted to pick my bike up and chuck it into the road. But I didn’t lol
We have 4 more baptisms coming up! On April 7!! Crazy!!
But yep all is well. I am looking forward to conference this Sunday.
Hope all is good at home.
Love you,
Elder Hanes
