Well, let me think back upon the week, we all went though different directions and paths and there is a lot I dot know about what everyone else did, but I will just tell it to you from my view.
So I got a job doing snow removal with classic, and I have to say it’s a bit more enjoyable then landscaping was, mostly because I get to stand with a leaf blower on my back and blow snow off the walkways I go to, then hop into a warm vehicle and do it all over again in another site, I got lucky enough to be put with Russell Jeffrey as a partner, he has some straightforward thoughts and i love our conversations.
There was one day out of the week I stayed home to focus on some work and sat at the couch for four hours trying to figure out a certain pose for a picture I was trying to draw of Drako, after much doodling and more then a little distraction I figured out what I wanted to do and sketched it up real quick.
For family home evening, we though it would be fun to do the flour game once again as a family, it brought back a lot of old memories, Cody was with us and it a fun night of family entertainment.
Mom and the girls went to Sparwood yesterday to help Grandma and Grandpa Bruce with renovations and for general support, so it’s just been us boys around here for a little bit now, I was texting a good friend of mine and showed him this picture.
The title: Hanging with the boys, but had this though as I sent it, how it’s not a complete set without you brother. We all miss you and love you a lot, you make up a big part of this family and I am excited for your safe return, but if not I call your Zelda posters.
Your brother

Hello Everyone!
This week was pretty great. I finally found a Mountain Dew in Malawi. It was a miracle. Though, the disappointing part of it was it didn't taste like a Mountain Dew:( Life in Malawi is great. It's still rainy season and you always know when it's going to rain when it's stupidly hot. It has it's hot times and it's cold times and I really enjoy when it's raining when i'm safe from it. But when i'm stuck in the rain it kind of sucks. But I love it. One day it rained so hard that yards were flooded. I felt good about it until we got back to the flat and found puddles in our flat. So we had to spend some time cleaning it all up.
You know, almost everyone wants to be blessed by God. And so do I. But sometimes I feel he's blessing me too much. As we've been finding people and teaching people everyone seems to want to feed us. For the first little bit is was pretty awesome. Free and Great tasting food. Then it got to a point where we didn't want to take their food anymore and we've been trying to set appointments for times other that lunch time. Then, while we are teaching they secretly make food so by the time we finish teaching they put the food in front of us and we have to tell the other Elders that we are not going to make it for lunch because it has been provided. I think I only had to pay once for lunch this week because of all this. Then when we went to pick up the other Elders at the end of the day at a members house. The members secretly made us 4 Elders food. Of course we can't refuse but I am definitely seeing Gods hand in watching over us. Just like God promised,"Take no thought before hand what ye shall eat". I'm loving it though. It's great.
I love you all
-Elder (Samuel) Smith
