Elder Haskell is interesting. He has arthritis in both of his knees and a messed up back from riding rodeo horses (the ones that buck all the time) so he has to wear knee braces on both knees. He is also literrally the slowest person at doing anything. We got home from a district meeting yesterday and it took him and hour and 20 minutes to get ready and back out the door. I got a good nap in so I'm not really complaining, but I just don't understand. He's also really quiet. but the district and I are working on opening him up. He is a really good teacher though.  We've had some crazy experiences with a couple of our investigators already. Mike told us yesterday that he's pretty close to converting; he just has some questions. He's also gottta quit smoking and drinking. I feel like he truly is close. I've dropped investigators before and it was a feeling like yeah we should drop this person. And I don't get that feeling from Mike so I think God's really working hard on him. I'm excited for this transfer! We're going to buckle down and work hard and  make success. 

Pray for Angelita, one of our investigators.  She's getting pretty sick.

I think that's it! 
Love you guys!

Hey! I'm actually feeling a lot better.

We worked at TJ's ranch and helped her video this horse who's really young and untrained and it was pretty sketchy. We are transferring tomorrow. My new companion's name is Elder Haskal. I've never met him. He'll be the district leader which will continue my mission long run of being the companion of the Districct leader.
Thanks again for all the birthday gifts!
Love you guys! Elder Sherwood

We went to Olive Garden for my birthday. it was fun. A member bought us ice cream afterwards.

We had 2 people at Sacrament meeting; that was pretty cool. We should have a pretty busy week this week as well.

I don't think I need anything else. I need a mini vacuum for my nose. Transfers are next week That's crazy. These 2 transfers flew by.

Well that's all I  think! Thanks for all the presents! Tell Grandma and Grandpa I said thank you! 

Love you guys!

This week was rough. We weren't really able to see anyone except Mike. We had to drop one of our investigators. No one came to church. Things are slow right now. We are finding potential people to teach so hopefully we can pick up some more people. I'm being rushed and I can't really think of anything else. Sooo yeah.

Love you guys!
