Well hello there family!
Crazy to hear the big news huh?? My new companion is a really cool
kid from Toronto, Canada. He is a stud soccer player and he played
semi-professional before he came out here on his mission. He was
converted about two years ago and he heard about the
church through his girlfriend. He was actually taught for two weeks
straight by Brock's mission president and was baptized two weeks after
taking the missionary lessons. Cool huh?! He is going to be a great
addition to our mission.

| District Meeting! |
Bubba and Caden! What style! I am liking the new coats! Ohhh myyyy
goodnesssss I cannot believe that Landon is home. I don't know why, but
that seriously blows my mind. He looks really, really good and I loved
the story about the little kids. That is so
funny. Tell him hola for me and give him a big old hug!
Okay so the thing that held up my companion in the MTC was his
shoulder that got dislocated playing volley ball and yes he did have
surgery. . . About a week ago he got the clearing to go and right after
they shipped him off on his way!

| Hawaiian Haystacks! |
Lyon this past week was seriously so much fun. After picking up my
new companion we got to head on over to President Roneys house and hang
out with him and his family and we had an amazing meal cooked by his
wife which consisted of rice a roni and Hawaiian
Haystacks! I was so excited when she brought out the food. It was a lot
of fun to get to spend some time with them without a million other
missionaries.

| Our Zone Leaders Dog. hahahah |
Another really cool thing that we were able to experience this week
was that we were able to go and do an exchange with our Zone Leaders
out in Lausanne. That was seriously such a blast. In the morning they
took us out on the metro and we rode down all
the way to lake Geneva. We contacted everyone on the way and we tried to
contact the whole metro! It was crazy! One we got down to the lake we
were able to walk around and take some pictures and man it was seriously
so beautiful!!! After we contacted around
the lake we hopped back on to the metro and headed back to the city to
eat some lunch. They had told us about where we were going to eat the
night before, but we had no idea really what to expect. . . They took us
to a real American burger joint!! It was seriously
so good and was one of the best hamburgers and fries that I have ever
had. . . It was this place called Holy Cow and it was so legit that
about half of the menu was written in English. The place was packed with
young adults and it looked like a really fun environment
to meet up and hang out with your friends, it was like the cool version
of club chev!
This week we had a Senior couple come and inspect our apartment
and during the inspection it came up that the Husband said he does 100
push ups every single morning and he is 69 years old! We were so shocked
and he was like, do you want to see right now?
Or better yet do you want to have a push up contest?? We were like yeah!
Hahaha so Elder Crawley and I had a push up contest with this older Elder
who seriously did 30 push ups in a row and almost beat us! It was
insane! I am proud to say I didn't loose, but still.
Right after we finished I told him that he was just like my grandpa and
that my grandpa is still stronger than me and that gave him a laugh. You
better still be as strong as you were when I left Grandpa Bob!
As for my District Leader and Zone Leaders, they are all so
awesome. I love my Zone Leaders the most, they are always doing
something fun and they always have one of us laughing.
For my birthday you can send me whatever you want, but I was
thinking maybe a small cookbook with your really good recipes. I don't
really need a lot of anything though. I will keep you updated. Maybe
some more of those zebra pens!
In our mission they are making a mission cookbook so mom I really
want to have the Beyer name in there so next week can you send me some
of your amazing recipes that will be published in the book? Maybe
oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. . . you know the
good stuff :)
I love you all so much and hope that you have an amazing week!
"Life is full of difficulties, some minor and others of a more
serious nature. There seems to be an unending supply of challenges for
one and all. Our problem is that we often expect instantaneous solutions
to such challenges, forgetting that frequently
the heavenly virtue of patience is required."
-President Thomas S. Monson
