December 19, 2016

Hi Mom!!!!!

My week was great.  I don’t have that many pictures but I did have a good week. I will be at Bro Johnsons house to Skype you. I will have to create an account when we get over there. I’ll call you right before I skype. 11am will be the time. We have sacrament meeting from 9 to 10. After church we are going to his house and eating and skyping. It will be around 11. (which your time is 10am.) I don’t care if it’s with everyone or with just the 5 of us. yall choose. I will look out for the packages. I will not open them until Sunday.  We have presents under our tree.

I sent yall a letter on Saturday.  It’s 4 Christmas cards from the Wetumpka Elders.  That’s cool that yall are still doing the whole Sunday dinner thing. That’s soo cool that Dad got a letter from that lady from his mission.  That’s awesome. If I ever come back to Wetumpka to visit I’ve already got a place to stay. James and Anette said I could crash at their place if I come back. Thats soo cool to hear about dad!!

MONDAY- we went to Alex city like I said and then we came back and emailed for a bit. Then we went home. Wasn’t that big of a day.
TUESDAY- We were supposed to have our exchange but one of the ZLs got really sick so we couldn't do it this week. We are doing it next week. So we went and tried to see some of our investigators but they weren't home because of Christmas coming up. So we went to Walmart and tried to find people but we only found one person. We are seeing them on Saturday.
WEDNESDAY- We got up and went and did service for this couple who were moving. We got done at about 4. So we went back and changed and went and tried to see some people but that didn’t work so we went to mutual with the sisters and then we went home.
THURSDAY- Thursday Elder Butterfield wasn’t feeling too well.  He was up all night with the craps. So we stayed in most of the day. I gave him a priesthood blessing and about 3 hours after he finally had enough energy to go out. But it was 5:30 so we just tried to go see this couple. They didn’t have time for us so we just came home after trying to find some others.
FRIDAY- Today was our mission Christmas party. So we were up in Bessemer all day. We had a little zone conference and then we had our talent show. Me and Elder B didn’t do anything. But there was a guy who played the saxophone. Then after the talent show we watched Zootopia. After that was over we went and had a small devotional for the missionaries who were departing. Then we came back home. Today I officially ran out of money, lol. I spent it on groceries and stuff like that. I used Amees Walmart card last week on Monday. It has 5 left on it. I just ran out of grandmas.
SATURDAY- We got up and went and helped these people with yardwork. Then we came home and took a nap. Then we went and saw James and Annette. We taught them about the temples. Then I shared my testimony and I think it touched him. But I’m not sure. Then we ended the day with seeing this couple Stanley and Madeline.
SUNDAY- We had ward council in the morning and then it was Sacrament meeting. After church we went home and took a nap. Then we got a phone call from Bro Bryant saying that he needed help with a blessing. The guy was getting eye surgery the next day. He was blind. So I anointed him with oil and bro Bryant gave the blessing. He thanked us and then he took us back home and that was our day.
TODAY- Just email and play bball. We have an appointment at 7pm. No dinner appointments this week. We had like 3 last week.

We don’t have the car. We are walking alot more now. We can’t go do anything. We are broke. All of the people who have us over for dinner come and get us.

I got something for you to eat on my 6 month mark, Chicken and dumplings with Grapico soda. Grapico is a soda down here. And this is a southern thing, put about 5 salted peanuts in your coke. It’s actually pretty good.

Tell Ash that I drove the jeep everywhere. I’m giving her permission to drive it! Lol. It’s a good thing yall didn’t sell my car.

My suit looks big because I’m losing weight. I have people telling me that I’ve got taller too.
I usually start the conversations with investigators with Alabama football.  I’m gonna come home an Alabama fan. OH YA ROLL TIDE!!!

I LOVE SEEING THOSE PICS!!!!! I DONT MISS THE SNOW!!!! How’s the snow been this year?

I got a letter from Bro Atkinson with some of the youth from the ward. I sent them back letters. It was pretty cool.

Here’s a pic of me and Sister Gilbert.  We are in the same zone.  The black Elder just went home in November, the other 2 have been out for 4 months and one has been out for 1 year. Sister Beck is the one girl. She lives near us. She was in my friend Sebastian's ward back home.

OK LOVE YOU SOO MUCH MOM!!!!!!! ENJOY THE HOLIDAY AND I WILL SEE YOU ON SUNDAY!!!

Elder Webb
