Well this week has been fun! We have been having tons of success! And it feels great!!!! My new companions name is Elder Pitts! He is from Provo, Utah! But he is one country boy! haha We have been getting along to say the least! haha This will be one fun transfer! haha But this week we had a pretty cool miracle! We have been trying to track down this less active part member family for quiet some time and it hasn't worked out the other 1000 times we have stopped by.. But Sunday we felt inspired to stop by so we did, but we tried a different address! And guess what! They were home! And after getting to know her we told her about us teaching Landon and she told us, 'Well I guess it's time that I get back into church and have you guys teach my kids!' So we set up an appointment to teach her two unbaptized youth!!! We are so happy and so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the dad isn't a member but I found out he likes cars.. So I was like 'nice, game on.' Then I found out he races. So I was like 'ok, thats pretty cool!' Then I found out he has a race car. So I was like 'even better...' Then he showed me and I was like 'good gracias, this thing is beautiful!!!!!!!!!'  It's another near pro-mod built camaro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He told me about it.. It's a 72 camaro with a Chevy 355 (lame) and all the hook ups, trans brake, Hurst shifter, co2 shiftnoid, msd ignition, lexan windows, Ford 9inch, Goodyear slicks, it was sweet!!!!!!!!!!! Only problem is... He only runs 1/8 mile... and its slow... He said it's about... 6-7 seconds in the 1/8... But, the chassis is soo set up for something bigger!! I would have a 400 Chevy small block with a set of twins on it:) She would run 7-8 in the quarter!!! :) But he said he doesn't race it because he has kids and so that made sense! haha Anyway! Kim is still Kim and is doing so great!! We are happy for her! She's progressing well! And Ashley is so solid! It's amazing! Her husband got the Priesthood in his ward in Georgia! (He is at Military Basic training) So he can now baptize her! haha So that's exciting! And he will be here on the 15th to take the final lessons with her! Then she will be baptized on the 26th!!! We're so happy!! Anyway! I love you guys!

Love,

Elder Johnsen!
