"Chalk Talks" at the parks

Dear mommy!
I did have a surprise visitor yesterday haha. i was standing in front of the doors talking to my district leader and his companion and then he walked throught the doors. i was way excited to see him but also super nervous because my district leader wasnt too happy. but i told him i had no idea greg was coming so he was like. i wouldnt worry about it then. well anyways This week we have been tracting a ton! and just trying to find that second group to teach. on friday i went on my first exchange with the district leader. his name is elder hermansen and he is pretty cool but i didnt like the fact that he bagged on his companion behind his back. his companion really isnt that bad and he made it seem like it was the end of the world! i mean come on? you are almost done with your mission and you are not even humbled! On wednesday me and elder sinclair decided to try a new method called chalk talks.. we bought a box of chalk and went to the park and i drew a huge plan of salvation on the bike path.. that was during the day and we didnt get to talk to a lot of people. so we decided to go back at night and we talked to alot of different people and it was really interesting to see all of the people that walk by or ride by on their bikes.. were always looking at it. luckily this bike path is right next to some really nice soccer fields that are always lit up with lights everywhere! so we were able to stay till about 8:45ish. it gets dark here around 7:45 now and its really annoying because you cant tract and knock doors anymore because people get really mad when its dark! so anyways thats been the whole week in a nut shell! lots and lots of tracting! its not really my favorite thing to do.. but you gotta do it when there is nothing else to do.
