November 21, 2016

Hey everyone! 

       So another week has come and gone just like that. This week hasn't been too eventful but it has been fulfilling. We have been doing the usual, tracting, visiting less actives and members, doing service, ect. We were able to do some service this week with some of the other missionaries in my district. It was in the Lithia area just below ours and we helped a lady named Sister Brozak who is a member stack some hay. She had about 80 bails or so. They were a lot lighter than the ones I stacked by home haha. It was a lot of fun and we got to take some pictures with her horses and donkey. Her husband also had a huge collection of old Texaco stuff out in a separate building. I felt like I was on American pickers or something ;) I always love doing service though. 
       We were able to bring Tiffany and James (Uprichard) to a baptism down in my last area Apollo Beach. It was a really good experience for them to see what it was all like. They are all still doing well. We had dinner with them yesterday with the Eve's family in the ward. They got along so great and are already good friends. We are shooting for December for their baptism. We have had to drop quite a few people because they have either cancelled on us multiple times or just aren't interested anymore. It can be hard sometimes to just stop teaching somebody, but there is no effort wasted. Who know's, maybe the next missionaries that come along will find them again and they will be ready. Most of the time you never know how much good you actually do. 
       We are having a zone activity day today along with zone training meeting. It should be really fun! We have  a bunch of games planned and My companion and I will actually be doing a musical number for the training meeting. I will let you all know how it goes, I am pretty nervous because I haven't ever performed for anyone. Hopefully I don't make a fool of myself haha. 
      The weather is really cooling down, so much that we have decided to just work out in the apartment in the morning. Florida gets a lot colder than you would think, and with the humidity its a lot worse. It is time to bring out the sweaters. 
      That's pretty much all for this week, I hope you all have a wonderful week of thanksgiving, which reminds me, we have 3 dinner appointments scheduled on thanksgiving so we will see if I can make it. last year we had 3 appointments too and I stuffed myself on the first visit haha. Love you all!!

From the sunshine state,
Love Elder Hudson
