Craig 3

First off shout out to Sister Robinson for opening the family history center so we can email today for an hour and 15 minutes instead of 45 tomorrow; she is the best.

Also yay! Dustin got baptized.  We honestly were not sure that he would be ready by Saturday.  We somehow were able to teach him everything he needed to know.  As of last week we had like 10 more things we needed to teach him.  It was awesome.  His Grandpa came and baptized him.  Some people from the ward came.  Everyone could feel the Spirit and it was awesome.  Sister Herring did a musical number.  For some reason people have it in their head that I can conduct music, so I was in charge of that. 

For Valentines day we went to a member's home.  It was their birthday.  The elders dressed up and sang Happy Birthday.  It was super fun.  Elder Leon is from Mexico and loves fiestas so it was a blast.  A member's birthday was on Wednesday.  Her husband called us and told us he had a job for us.  He needed us go and buy $40 worth of balloons and somehow get them to his house without her knowing so she would wake up and her room would be full of balloons.  Somehow we managed to do it and she was surprised.  

This week for Kierstens lesson we talked about goals.  We made cupcakes while we talked about it.  The frosting was the goal and the ingredients were how you would accomplish the goal. We had to leave before the cupcakes were done, but she said they were delicious.  

On Friday we were out walking and felt like we should go to the church.  We had no idea why but we did.  On our way we saw this man outside his house and asked him if we could share a message about Jesus Christ. He said he was not interested, but his wife might be.  We asked his wife and she let us in.  We ended up talking about faith.  She just recently decided to start going to church and felt like she did not have as much faith as everyone else that grew up going to church.  It was super cool and we are going to see her again on Tuesday

There is this one Mexican restaurant in the mall here in Craig. It is basically all that is still open [today since it's President's Day].  That is except for the dance studio across from it.  I decided that it is only still open because it is what you see when you are in the restaurant so people are like, "oh look a dance studio. I should sign my kid up for dance."  That is how they get business.  It is a super good restaurant though so if you are ever in Craig you should check it out.
