Elder Bloxham - 1.26.2015

Transfer week! I stayed in Montgomery, and I have received my last companion ever! His name is Elder Holmstead, and he is from Pleasant Grove, UT! He is my 14th companion (counting the MTC) and he is awesome!!! I can't really compare him to Elder Seegmiller, Seeg was a one of a kind that he and i got along perfectly. It was like me serving with Dylan, we just had the time of our life for 3 months! But he got transferred to Western Hills, and is training a new missionary, so that is awesome! But if i were to compare Elder Holmstead to somebody, it would have to be a mix between Josh Parkinson, and Simon. But with different interests.. He was a tech guy for the plays at school, and that is pretty much all he did! haha but he is an awesome guy, and is sooo willing to work and learn with everything going on! What we do have in common is we both want to baptize the freakin Madison family!!!!!! ughh, they are crazy! They are so hot and cold, more like on fire vs frost bitten! But it's okay, prayers will be answered :)

We were going on so many exchanges this week that we had no time to find any new investigators, so we took sunday to find the 4 that we needed! So we go to these ghetto apartments and we found 2 hispanic ladies!! it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! I spoke spanish to them and they even wanted us to come back! haha, one lady spoke english, and she translated for the other! it was awesome! Then later that day we found this other kid who is 19, and he is from Honduras. But he was such a homie! he spoke english really well, but his first language was spanish! So we are excited for these hispanics, it'll be awesome! S/O to K in spanish land NC, Dee in Saltillo, and Hunter in the DR!!! I'm spanish boys!!! hahaha :)

But things are aweome here in Montgomery, and I've got 5 more weeks to go!! :) Love you RyGuy!
