I was very glad to stay in Foresthill :)

Thank you for keeping all of my letters and "stuff" haha :D I won't let it keep me from writing in my journal. Sleep is what is keeping me from writing in my journal ;) I am definitely trying hard to take more pictures. I am still taking some videos here and there. So far there aren't a TON of things to take pictures of. I will definitely get pictures with people this transfer because my guess is that I'll get transferred this coming transfer.

Lessons are going pretty well. We had 21 lessons the week of July 20 - July 26! It was awesome, the mission standard is 20 so we FINALLY reached it and even surpassed it. The next week we got 15 and then this week we got 14 which is pretty average across the mission I'd say. In our defense, we picked up EIGHT new investigators this week! Aimee we weren't able to meet with this week because we couldn't get anything scheduled but we are going to meet with her this week at least Tuesday since we have dinner with them that night. I am going to do "splits" for the first time on Tuesday as well so that should be fun :D

That's good that your weather has suddenly cooled down. Ours did too this week and it's been SUPER DUPER nice. I've had a blanket on every night this week :D Then I even got to where my hoodie one morning! I was so excited! It's starting to warm up again unfortunately and supposedly it's supposed to get back into the 90's :P Oh well, I've pretty well aclimatized (sp?) to California's heat so I was actually pretty cold this past week but I loved it :D

That is AWESOME about the cherry harvest! I have been talking a lot about it lately. In fact, last night I explained it to a family (of adults) that we are teaching and they thought it was fascinating and incredible how many cherries we pick. That's INSANE that they have been getting a bin every 5 trees or LESS! That just blows my mind. We were excited for 5-7 trees let alone less than 5! WOW am I jealous. I'd love to be working right now because I love when it's just non-stop driving with no waiting.

I am definitely happy, healthy, and enjoying life.

I love you back :D

Love,

Elder Davis
