Hey ma, what up? well i dont have so much time cuz we have appointments in a little bit so ill probably be a bit short. maybe you can get a hold of the prophet and ask him to get a better e mail service for us. haha. but it was another really good week. we had 8 investigators at church on time!!. i can feel that my prayers and your guys prayers are truly blessing us. we were supposed to be having a baptism for Ajay this week but he got an urgent call from a friend that turned out to not be so "urgent" and left in the middle of sacrament. and now he has to wait another 3 weeks.. so that was kinda a bummer. but its okay cuz i feel like he can still be more prepared and only be stronger as he finally gets to enter the waters of baptism. his friend ravi kirran made it back from delhi yesterday too and he seems super happy about the book of mormon. i cant wait to teach them again! mahipal and revinder are still doing great too. they even made it on time wich was a first. haha. i think the Lord is punishing me for all the times i walked in late. . . haha jk. but they are set for the 16th and looking really good. i cant ever remember what i tell you in past weeks but we were able to finally meet a brother named Achyut this last week. he and his dad came to church. and the first thing he wanted to talk about was plans for his baptism. he wasnt able to meet us for a couple weeks because he was back at his village place working out some kinks in his marrage. its a love/arranged marage but the problem is is that he and his futur wives families casts are different so her parents arent being so cooperative. probably think shes a 10 cow wife but achyuts fam thinks 8!! haha jk. but culture is sad here sometimes but i think everything will work out. so hes supposed to marry within the next couple weeks and if so he wants to be baptized on the 23. i truly feel so blessed to be working with those wich we have right now. sometimes i think, man how did we find these people but then i realize that the Lords hand did it all. im so thankful for this gospel and the change it has made in my life as i truly try to follow and apply it. its kinda like dad always taught me. dont just go through the motions as your playing ball. we can do the same in the gospel. by small things great things come to pass and i know thats true.our district here in hyderabad 1st is way fun too. its 2 utah and two idaho. but we have a lot of fun and are working hard as a district. oh and speaking of idaho if you want you can send some of those potato things and some gravy packs :) oh and i have been forgeting to ask.. did you ever get a package from me. i had some elders send it when i left KGF and i havent heard anything from you. i hope it got to ya. a bunch of pics and other crap that was probably pointless to send. but let me know cuz if it hasnt made it by now its probably not going to. anyways im doing great. thanks for all you do and for your love and support. your the best. love you kaden p.s sorry for the spelling and stuff. haha i cant remember anything. oh and yes i know sis kasper. i see them all the time there great!
whad up pops, well its another great week. im having so much fun out here. your words alays boost me and just make me wanna work hard but have fun. its crazy how your attitude and swagger can change everything. days you just know your going to have success and you work to achieve your goals it happens because you know befor that if your work hard it will. its not a big secret or anything i guess but you just gotta do it. the family and the buisness are always in my prayers so im glad to hear its still going really good. i know the Lord is blessing the family. so ill try to answer some of your questions. me and e riley are doing really well. and langueage isnt a problem at all. we can have communication with people who dont know any english. i wouldnt say we have the languages or could understand to people speaking telugu to eachother but can pick up small enough to know twhat there saying about. but really im working on getting my english back to normal. at first i thought it was good to speak with less english and to cut words out but pres is telling us to get out of that habbit. so after living with natives the last while i still find my self saying sentances and just laugh cuz it doesnt make sense. haha. on p day we just mail. shop we have been bowling as a district, sometimes just chill and rest. there is ping pong and basketball at the church too so sometimes we do that. i dunno nothing to special. haha there probably is somthing but its just normal to me now. oh we got a small toster oven!! so maybe i can cook the brownie mix and stuff mom sent for x mas. haha. we eat outside a lot. with e riley he always wants american. KFC and pizza subway, micky ds. im sick of it but he doesnt love the food so ill do whatever. oh man we ate at a members last week and by far the spicyest food i have ever had. same for e riley. i can handle hot food to but this chicken curry was un real. we were both bright red, nose running like anything, i had rice in my right hand and a hanky in the left to wipe after every bite. haha, my eyes were sweating. man it was so good but so hot. haha we couldnt quit laughing. it was funny how hot it was. that whole night it felt like i was cooking from the inside out. at the end i took rice and curd. its just like what it sounds. white chunky stuff that is sour but i put sugar on it. i love it now!! its kinda like yogurt i guess?? e riley doesnt like it but its good cuz it cools down the fire. and yes it burns on the way out too:) haha. we have a wash machine on the back deck. its a lot better than kgf's but it sucks cuz its outside so all the dust gets in it so if your not careful when you pull your stuff out you get dust all over. we only have water from 630 am to about 10 so we have to do everything in the morning. im just glad to have running watter at all and not carry it by bucket like a lot of people do. anyways thats some about hyderabad. i havent taken any pics for ever. so thats why you havent got any. oh and tell mom i didnt see an eclipse. you cant really see the stars and stuff to good in the city. just cuz of lights and smog. but i love it here in india. i hope you can feel how my happiness and love i have for the people here. but thanks for everything dad. i love you kaden
