Sugar overload

"Hello"

-President Thomas S. Monson

Well that was without a doubt one of the best conference sessions I've ever watched.  That may be due to the fact that it is one of the only conferences that I've stayed awake the whole time.  Some great messages that helped me get up and do some more.  I think my favorite talk was by Elder Eyring at the priesthood session.  Of course our eyebrows were all burned by Elder Holland

Any way I'm sending pictures of my companion and I for everyone to see.  There's a funny story about my companion.

Elder Marco is a very healthy eater so when he received a large package with over 16 boxes of candy he wasn't very happy.  Then in another package he got even more candy.  His birthday was on the 30th so that's why he was getting so many sweets.  Well that morning while we were planning I smelled cake coming down the hall and sure enough we came home and there was a cake sitting on his desk.  At this point he was literally dying from all the candy.  That wasn't the best part.  When we went to dinner that night the family pulled out a chocolate cake with chocolate icing and chocolate ice cream.  By the end of the day he was just dead.

In other news we've reached Oct 1st and it is still over 100 degrees.  I'm starting to doubt that I'll ever feel cold again.

The work in this new area is really picking up.  Most of the whole area is residential and not a lot of new people around.  That being said I've found that usually the most unhappy people are the ones that live in big houses and have cars and almost everything they need.  They will usually be the first to complain about some little thing where as in the apartments and trailers there was one guy who was sick, his motorcycle got stolen from his stall in a trailer, and yet he was still happy.  It made me think a little bit more about what I thought was going through a hard time.

I guess the biggest thing I learned this week is to drink from the scriptures, because they can be your best friends.

To all friends and Family I love you all and look forward to another great week.

-Love Elder Davidson
