Elder Bloxham - Heyy!!!!

 This week has been the craziest week of my life!! We have had so much going on and it is out of control!! Time flies when your busy, and this week went by way too fast!! We only have one more week of this transfer, so we are trying to kick butt and kick it into gear and have another baptism before the transfer is over! 
      This last Saturday we had 2 people get baptised. Hunter Robinson (9 yrs. old) and Kelly McIntyre (34) Hunter's family is recently out of inactivity and when they started coming back Hunter came up to the missionaries and said that he wanted to be baptized! So we taught him the lessons and then he was baptized this last weekend! Kelly is an amazing woman! I think it's funny that her name is Kelly because she is exactly like Kelly Tilby. She is just herself and doesn't care what people think about her and she says it how it is! haha, she's awesome!! She never wears shoes, like ever. So when her feet got wet as she was walking into the font, she left little dirty foot prints going in and she laughed and said well hey, the'll get clean in a minute! Haha, and then after she said my soul is clean and so are my soles! haha!!! Her daughter came to church with her and we have been trying to get her baptized as well, but Kelly doesn't want to force it, so she is letting her kids make the decision. But when Aubrey was at church yesterday and saw her mom being confirmed, Aubrey said, "If i get baptized, do i get to have that as well?" and we told her yes and she said she wants to get baptized next week. But, she'll be with her dad this next week so we will do it the week after! :)
      Dayton is out of control! People are ready to hear to gospel and the missionaries here are ready to share it!! :)
       We had the amazing experience of Elder Dallin H. Oaks come and talk to us yesterday. He was absolutely amazing!!! Seeing an Apostle in person and letting him speak to you is the greatest feeling ever!! He's such an amazing person!
       
I hope everyone has an amazing week! Make sure you keep your faith strong, prayers more often than not, and your Book of Mormon opened! :) I love you guys so much and appreciate the support you give me!! :)

We went to the Wright brothers museum today with a recent convert and Elder Sunderland and I were getting all weird and funny, (you know how i get) but we had the greatest time and here are pictures that can hopefully show how much fun we had!





The Things on our heads are something that was on the table when we walked in, so we grabbed it and put it on our heads hahah!! Elder Sunderland's face...
