Elder Olsen:

Hey everyone,How are you all this week? For myself, I have had a very interesting week so far. On Monday we went to the Mission Office for interviews and unfortunately I have been sitting in the dark for the past 2 weeks. My new companion wasn't doing the best of things and was breaking some rules behind my back and somehow President Smith found out and let me know of what had been going on. We had to have an emergency transfer that day. We headed back home and my companion packed and we took him to a different area where I went to pick up my new compaion and brought him back and you will never guess who my new companion is?! ELDER MCCOY!! We went to the area where my companion was being dropped off and I was shocked to see who my new companion was!! What are the chances that 2 people from the same Ward would get the same mission call at the same time and then for those 2 people to be companions while out there!! I'm so excited to be his companion. Once we got put together President Smith interviewed us and told us what was up and has entrusted us to fix the problem that has just occured here in Bangna. Its going to be a blast working here with him! I still cant believe we are companions! I somehow knew one day we would be companions though. I guess that feeling was real! So that the big news for the week, I got to go but I love you all!

Elder McCoy:

Well, this is going to be quite a surprise, but no need to panic, run around screaming, or throwing any parties, okay?This past week (Monday), we received a phone call right after district meeting at the Ayutthaya house. The phone call happened to be from President Smith. He said there was an urgent situation and he needed my help to solve it. I asked, "How can I help solve the problem?" He said, "Pack your bags right now." Well, that was quite a shock. But, no questions asked, I packed my bags in 45 minutes and shortly after, none other than yours truly, Elder Olsen, was at our doorstep dropping off his companion and picking me up. I don't know the whole story, all I know is that I am now in Bangnaa, serving as companions with my next door neighbor! Who would have thought, in all the world, two people from the same ward get called to the same mission and end up being companions? My head is still spinning at the thought. The only thing I know is that there is no bar here in Bangnaa. So President Smith has entrusted us with the responsibility to raise the bar once again.
Elder Spencer McCoy

Hey everyone,
Last Friday I had an adventure and the adventure last until the end of the month. On Friday we went out inviting to try and find some investigators and we went down this little road and I had a run down with a species that hates missionaries more then anything else, Dogs... usually we will go down a street and every dog on the street will come running out to bark at us and run after us. This has become a usually thing and I don't think to much of it anymore when it happens but on Friday a dog crossed the line. There is a mutual understanding between us missionaries and dogs, we don't kick, they don't bite. But on Friday, our understanding was broken! I was just casually riding my bike and a dog come walking beside me and thought hey, I want some white meat! and it decided to take a taste and it bit me on the leg! I was so shocked that this happened that I jerked my leg away and when I did, my knee flew up and slammed against my handle bar and made my bike go all screwy almost sending me to the ground. Once I regained my composure I looked back to see the dog casually walking back to its house being fully satisfied with what it had just done. I was not to happy with that dog...I looked down to see the damage of my bit and my pants had a huge hole in them. I rolled up my pant leg to see the bit and I was bleeding out of the bit and around it was bruised over in the size of a baseball. There wasn't a ton of blood but it was enough that I didn't like it. I called Sister Smith and asked her what to do and she said needed to go to the hospital so we canceled all other appointments we had for the day and headed downtown to Bangkok General to have them check out my bite. Once we got down there they said yeah...your going to have to get rabbie shots. I was fine with that because I would rather not die and I hear there has never been a case where somebody had survived from getting rabbies. So gladly I took them. In that one day I got 5 shots but I'm still not done. Its a series of 5 shots so throughout the month I have to go back and get them all. Its been a blast! Tomorrow I go in for my third shot of the series. I'm not too upset because well every missionary needs to get bit at least once while on hims mission. Its part of the fun and the experience! But I'm doing good, I haven't been excessively drueling and I haven't grown a tail so I think the medicine is working. Well I love you all and I hope all is well at home. I love you guys!

Steve

Hey!
So Im in my new area now, I moved back to Bangkok ...:( I'm in a city called Bangna. Its right next to the downtown part of Bangkok . I was really hoping I wasnt going to come back to Bangkok but at the same time I had a feeling that I was coming back down. The North was so much better. I could actually breath! Haha but Bangkok is good, the work is a lot easier here because of all the people. But my new companions name is Elder Correa. He is a surfer from Florida and he has also lived in Hawaii . He is pretty sweet, we are having fun so far. Also his Dad is a retired NFL football player. His Dad played for Miami ! That was pretty cool to find out.
So I'm now living in a 5 stories, 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms house. We don't even use half of the house! There is only 2 people living in it and its pretty big! Unfortunatelly there is only 1 air conditioning in the whole house, we have to have fans everywhere. It makes it hard for studying because our papers are always flying around. haha, But its a good house. The area I'm in is a little dry and doesnt have to much going on so I'm going to have my work cut out for me here. It will be great though. I'm still the District Leader and in Bangna there are 2 sisters aswell so now Ill finally have more then 2 people at my District Meetings! But I'm excited to be here in Bangna, it has good potential to be a good area, we just have to get it going!
Well I got to go, I love you all!

Sorry I didn't get an email sent off last week. Myldsmail.net is the worst email user ever! It deleted my email that took about 30 minutes to write. So I was a little frustrated and didn't have time to write a new one. So Ill tell you about the picture in this email.
> The other week had 2 more of our investigators baptized. Their names are Gan and Big. Gan is the Girl and Big is the guy. It was a really good baptism. Big has been preparing for this day for the last 6 months. He has had a problem with work and not being able to go to church on Sunday because of it. But we finally got him to talk to his boss and get Sunday off and he has gone ever sense! We had trouble finding him someone to baptize him though because he didn't just want anyone to do it. It had to be someone who he thought was spiritually close to God. So he picked the District President to just so happened to be in our Branch. But unfortunately he was going to be out of town the week of his baptism. So he had to pick someone else but could make up his mind. He asked if we could do it but we told him we wanted a member to do it instead. It was a huge dramatic event picking someone! So we told him that the 1st counselor in the Mission Presidency is also in our Branch and he could do it and he said OK! I think he didn't want anyone that didn't have the position of President to baptize him. Luckily Gan didn't care who baptized her so we just said hey President Samad is baptizing Big, do you want him to baptize you to? She said sure, why not! So that all worked out and the baptisms went well up until Gan had to bear her testimony in front of everyone. Usually after a person gets baptized, they will go up and share their testimony or something quick and Gan was terrified out of her mind! Her testimony reminded me of when I was back in Primary and how little 7 or 8 year old would give a talk. When it was Gan's turn to go up, she stood up and stared straight at her Mom and waited for her to come up to the stand with her. Once up there, they both stood at the pulpit and Gaw, Gan's Mom, told her everything to say. I felt a little embarrassed because there was our 14 year old investigator sharing her testimony like a Primary kid. Haha it was kind of funny because she was SO scared when it wasn't even a big. But she got through it and it ending really good. Elder Young shared an amazing arrangement on the piano of If You Could Hie To Kolob and Praise to the Man. Everyone was mesmerized at how good it was! Its nice having him around ha ha.
Well I got to go. I love you all!

Hey,
Tomorrow we have Moves Meeting and yesterday we found out that I am moving out of KhonKaen. It feels like I just got here but Ive been here for 4 and a half months! Ive been here just as long as any of my other areas but this area seemed like it went by a lot faster. But it will be fun to move to a different area. Ill miss this place though. I saw a lot of miracles and had a blast here!
Yesterday we had an activity where we went up a hiking trail called "Elephant Colored Rock" and it was so much fun! We haven't really seen mountains in a long time so being able to go up there was amazing! Ill send some pictures from the activity.
Well Today I don't have to much time to write much because I have to go home and pack for tomorrow. Next week Ill let you know where my new area is and all that good stuff but at least I hope you guys like the pictures this week! I love you all and Thanks for all your support!

Steve

Hey Mom,
Yesterday, I got the CDs you sent. I still haven't had the chance to listen to them because I don't have a CD player but hopefully I’ll find a member that has a laptop that I can use to put it on my iPod. I'm way excited to listen to the CDs though! Thank you so much for sending those to me!
So you asked me if I like the fruit here in Thailand. Well yes I do! There is a lot of fruit here that they don't have in America. Soooo much! Like Jackfruit, that’s way good, rose apples, Sakia, there is a lot! The pineapple here is really good too. Also Guavas are amazing. I like it all.
For the service project last week we worked on building a Cemetery that President Dodge is funding. At least I think he is funding it. It’s the only Cemetery in Thailand. Usually when somebody dies, they just cremate the body, they don't bury them. So we worked on putting up a fence around the cemetery and that took pretty much the whole time. That was all we had time to do.
I love you Mom, Thanks for the email! I still haven't gotten the shirts. I should be getting those in 2 weeks when we have Moves Meeting.

Steve

Hey,
So the other day the Zone Leaders come down to Khonkaen for switch offs and to interview 2 of our investigators for baptism and both Big and Gan passed their baptismal interviews so everything is up and running for two more baptisms this Sunday! We're way excited for them, and are so grateful to the Lord for his help also. Having four baptisms within one month is something very rare in Thailand and we know it couldn't have happened without His help. Also as we were on switch offs, Elder Spencer and I went and invited at a park near our house and as we were walking around we passed by this huge Buddhist temple and decided to stop by and see how it was and we had a run down with some Burmese Buddhist Monks. It was the battle of the religions! we didn't make any swift movements because we were out numbered and we were on there turf. So we decided to make friends with them instead! We said hi to them and then 2 of them came and stood right next to us as the other ones started taking pictures. I thought, wait a second! We are getting taken advantage of! They don't even talk to us but just come and start taking pictures of us...I felt like a tourist attraction! So we started talking to them and they were way suprised that we could speak Thai! They said they don't see white people a lot so they wanted to take pictures of us, so we said ok, but we want pictures too. Its not ever day you see a monk. Actually in Thailand you do...but I still wanted pictures! So we talked to a little and then parted ways. They were very nice people! I want one of their robs, they look way sweet and comfortable! Ha ha
So other news this week is zone conference. Usually, we have zone conference the first week of moves, but ths moves is different as we are doing a massive service project in Yasothon, so the date had to be moved to week three. Also, this is President Dodge's last zone conference as he and Sister Dodge are going home in three weeks so there is a lot of anticipation as to what this conference will be about. We leave tonight for Mahasarakham (a city about an hour away) where we will stay the night, then travel to Yasothon in the morning, give service, then go back to Roi Et where we'll have the actually meeting, spend the night again in Mahasarakham, then return to Khonkaen on Friday morning. It's going to be sweet.
So that's about it for the week. It was a good week and hopefully the rest of the week will be good as well! I love you guys!

ELDER OLSEN EATING A BUG

Hey everyone!

So last Thursday we went down to Bangkok for Moves Meeting and I went down because I had to renew my visa and that was a headache. Well not really, we just wasted time in a Taxi trying to drive around all of Bangkok trying to find the visa renewal place. We jumped in a taxi and told him were to go and he said he knew where it was but actually had no idea. So we drove around for about 2 hours trying to find it and we wasted good quality Bangkok time because after we renewed our visa we wanted to go to a market and buy 30 cent ties but because it took so long to find the place we didn't have enough time to go buy them and be back at the train station in time. So we missed out on it. It was ok though, only 6 more weeks until we get to go again...ha-ha. So when we were down in Bangkok, President Dodge asked everyone in the mission to fast last Sunday to try and up the ante of number of Baptisms around the mission for the next 6 weeks. We are getting a new mission President in a month and President Dodge doesn’t want us to get distracted. He wants us to still focus hard on getting baptisms so he called for a fast. So to start our fast, Saturday night we went to T-Bones Steak House. It’s an all you can eat Steak House Buffet and it only cost 109 Baht which is equal to 3 dollars! It would have been a sin for us not to have gone! So we got there and ate 2 plates of meat and potatoes, 1 plate of fruit and then a big bowl of ice cream. It was an excellent way to start a fast because after we were done, we didn't want to eat for another week we were so full! So we got home and started our fast and had no problem with the feeling of starvation then next day, it was great! Easiest fast I've ever had. So we had fasted that within the next 6 weeks we would be able to baptize 2 new people and as I was closing my fast on Sunday night, the phone rang in the middle of my prayer. I waited until I was done praying and then I called the person back and it was one of our investigators named Big. He has been an investigator ever sense I’ve been in Khon Kaen and he really wants to get baptized but can’t get off work on Sundays. We have had a lot of lessons with him to try and motivate him to talk to his boss about his situation but he just kept telling us he can’t do it and it won’t help. So we were about to give up and kind of let him go because he wasn't progressing but Sunday night when he called us changed all of that. He said that he had talked to his boss and he told us he wants to be baptized in 2 weeks because he can now come to church every Sunday! It was a complete answer to our prays and showed that God was responding to our fast. There was 1 of the baptisms. Then on Monday we went and taught Gan, the daughter of Gaw, one of our recent converts. She didn't get baptized with her mom because she felt she wasn't ready. So we have been working with her to help her feel ready and she has not wanted to accept a date but on Monday night we taught her about the Plan of Salvation and talked about Baptism and she said she was finally ready to be baptized. So we set a date to be baptized the same day as Big. There was number 2! It’s amazing how much power fasting and prayer has. Christ definitely leads this work and I have seen numerous times when you rely on the Lord, you WILL see miracles. This work is so wonderful and Christ is at the helm. I'm so grateful to be able to be a part of it! It has definitely changed my life! Well I got to go; I love you guys and want to thank you for all your amazing support! Steve

Hey everyone!
So Sunday we had an amazing baptism of a husband and wife here in Khon Kaen. Their names are A and Oo, easy to say right?! Ha-ha, they also have a son named Bank but he is 3 so he wasn't able to be baptized. They are the sweetest people! I was way happy to see them baptized and so was the Branch because the Khon Kaen Branch only has 2 families and everyone else is single. There are no strong foundations here so to see a strong family come in will help a lot! Their baptisms were really good, too. We had 2 members that helped us teach them and baptize them and Elder Young and I sang a musical number. We sang an arrangement to Nearer My God to Thee and it sounded pretty good. Not saying that I had anything to do with how it sounded because I didn't, Elder Young is an amazing singer and he made the song what is was. Luckily I have a companion that can sing really well!
So a little about the people we baptized...Oo works at the Post Office and is an amazing artist! A works with her parents at a restaurant and watches after their son Bank. Bank is a little boy that loves to run around and cause havoc! Luckily he a cute enough that nobody minds. But this family is great! They call me there second Dad. They say that parents are people that give you advice and teach you to be a good person and all that stuff. So because I taught them about the Gospel, they call me there second Dad! Ha-ha, I thought it was a little weird because they are like 10 years older than me but at the same time it was a pretty cool compliment! I have a feeling they will be great members!
So today Elder Young and I went and played with monkeys! It is the last week of the Transfer period and neither of us is moving so we decided to go do something fun. We hopped on a bus and went to the Monkey village! It was way fun. There were monkeys everywhere! They were pretty vicious as well! I almost got bit a couple times trying to feed them. Monkeys really do like Bananas! They can smell them when you have them and they will swing from every branch and every tree to get to you! When you pull out the bananas, you better start giving them out or your life could be in danger. You don't mess with monkeys when it comes to bananas! It was a lot of fun! We got some great pictures from it. I made a bargain with one of the monkeys to trade one of his bananas for a Book of Mormon...he accepted and we are going back to teach him next week! Ha-ha, Thailand is great! How many places can you go on your mission and play with monkeys, ride elephants, visit ancient Buddhist temples, or see some of the world’s most amazing waterfalls! I definitely lucked out by getting to come here.
Well I’ve got to go, I love you all and hope to hear from you all soon!

So the other day we had an awesome opportunity to do service at a members vineyard. We had called a couple members to go with us out to help this older member harvest rice. So we woke up early to go and help him and when we got there, he told us that there wasn't anymore rice to gather, he had done in all already. When I found out I was sad because I had never done it before and apparently harvesting rice is something that you have to do as a missionary! So I asked him if there was any left that I could do just so I could have the experience and he said yeah there is a little. So he took me and got me suited up for the job! First he brought out a pair of boots so I could go trudging in the mud but there was a problem. He is a Thai person, which means he has small feet and I have big feet...and so I looked at it and thought well, I got to try. So I squeezed me feet inside and you know I got them in but it was very tight and a little uncomfortable. But it was the only pair he had and I was determined to harvest some rice! So I dealt with it. Then he brought me out a hat, some gloves and a scythe to cut the rice. So now I was ready to go! So he took me to the field and showed me the rice he wanted me to cut and there were only 2 little bundles for me to gather...I felt jipped! But I went down and did it anyways and it took me all of 30 seconds to finish but that was enough because by this time my feet were dying! So I hurried and put down the rice, jumped out of the mud, ran back to my shoes and took off the boots. I didn't do it for very long but now I can say I have harvested rice! It was really fun! All the members that came were laughing and making fun of me while I was doing this because I had no idea what I was doing. They were mean to me...ha-ha but it was funny! But it was really fun helping him out in his vineyard.
But yeah that was the highlight of our week! But I got to go, I love you guys! Talk to you all later!

Steve

Hey,
So this past week we have been working hard to get 4 of our investigators baptized and trying to work out there concerns. Some of there concerns are pretty big and some are really small and make me laugh a little bit. We have a 13 year old investigators, named Gan, she is the daughter of Gaw, abd she said she doesn't want to get baptized anymore because she doesn't want to get the Holy Ghost. I was very confused by this because I would suspect people would think the opposite! So I asked her why she didn't want to get the Holy Ghost and she told us that she didn't want it to be with her always because she is afraid of ghosts...lol, it showed us that she really didn't understand what the Holy Ghost is and what it means to have Him with us always. So we went on explaining what the Holy Ghost was for a little while but she still didn't want to get it...So we are still trying to work with her.
But we have a family that we are teaching right now and the husband is way funny. Whenever we give them homework to read or to pray or do whatever, he always calls me and tells me that he finished reading the chapter or that he prayed and then that's the end of the conversation and he said that's all he wanted to say. But then yesterday when he called to tell me he read, he asked me if I thought he was ready for Baptism and I said "I definitely think you are ready" and he said "really? good because I feel ready and I want to be baptized as soon as possible!" It was amazing to see the desire he had to be baptized and how willing he was to keep our commitments we give them so he could be baptized. He is going to be a sweet member and I'm way excited for him to be baptized!
But I've been having a lot of fun out here! Elder Young is an awesome companion and its been really fun out here! Well I hope all is going well at home and I miss you guys! Don't be afraid to write me! Ha ha Love you!

Hey everyone! Sorry for the lateness of this e-mail. None of the Internet Cafes were open. Starting from Monday to Wednesday was the biggest Thai holiday of the year. Its called Songran or the Water Festival. What they do is for 3 days during the hotest time of the year, they have a huge water fight! People come out of their houses and fill the streets with squirt guns and buckets and just get eachother completely soaked! During this Festival, everything is pretty much closed and we weren't able to send email. We couldn't even work because nobody was free, inviting didn't work because people would just soak us with water or they were drunk...so we decided not to resist in trying to fight against the festival but to just embrace it and join them in playing! lol, So we had an activity on Monday with all the young single adults at the church and played games with water and then we went to the street and threw water at trucks driving by. People would get into the back of their trucks and fill barrels with water and throw it on people on the side of the road so then people on the side of the road would throw it back! so we did that for a while and that was fun and then we went to a street called Sticky Rice and thats where everyone in Khonkaen goes to celebrate Songran and there were people all over the steet and what they do is take baby powder and rub it all over your face. I'm not sure why they do it but everyone does it to everyone and so we got covered with baby powder and because we are white, we got it a lot worst then all the Thai people. Thais love White people so we got hit a lot with this powder! But you have to accept it or else they will get affended. But it was way fun! My legs and feet got pretty sunburned. I was able to wear shorts and flip flops for the first time in a year and wow my legs and feet were white! But its ok because there not white anymore, there now red!So Yesterday we had moves meeting and I got a new companion and I was called to the District Leader in KhonKaen. Its going to be fun! I'm excited for this moves because my new companion seems pretty fun! His name is Elder Young. He is from Colorado and has been out in Thailand for 6 months.Well I got to go. I love you all and thank you for all your prays and all your support! if you have any questions, fell free to ask! Talk to you later!
Elder Olsen

Hey,
So last Sunday we had another baptism. We baptized this lady named Gaw. She has been amazing to teach. Whenever we ask her to do anything she would always say yes I will, I have too if I want to get baptized! It was awesome! Her daughter is also learning and getting ready to get baptized but is still afraid to do it. She is only 14 and is still unsure. But I feel she will get baptized soon as well. Right now we are working really hard with a couple other investigators to get them baptized. We have about 5 other people that are really close and should be getting baptized within the next month. Well that's our hope!
So tomorrow I hit my year mark as a missionary. Its weird to think Ive been a missionary for a year now! It goes by fast. I'm half way done! well the work is going good here. The work can be the same as it is in Bangkok if you let it be. There is definitely less people here but that should determine how hard to work and determine your success. If you work hard you can have the same success anywhere you are. People say that there are dead areas but there really is not. Its all on you and your willingness to work. But I'm having fun out here! This weekend is Conference for us, we watch it a week later because they have to translate it and send it to us. so that should be fun! Well i love you all!

Steve

Hey!
So I've had some sweet encounters with some of the wild life here in the Eason. I'm no longer in the big city so there are a lot more animals and bugs everywhere. But last week at English class, we found a lizard in the bathroom, I don't know what its called in English but in Thai its called a Dookgae and every Thai person in Thailand are terrified of them! I think they are sweet looking! But apparently they're pretty vicious and if you get bit by it, its impossible to get its jaw open and I guess it hurts really bad. So we had to get this lizard out of the bathroom and we couldn't really chase it out and the only real way to get it out was by grabbing it. Everyone was to afraid to grab it with there bare hands so this 20 year old kid grabbed a pipe and tied a rope to it and made a noose at the end and after a while finally got it around its neck and we were able to take it outside. It looks like it may be dead hanging there but don't worry, we didn't kill it. Then this morning I had an encounter with a huge spider in the bathroom as I was showering. It scared me pretty good! It was pretty cool looking though. I'm just glad I didn't get bit! ha ha, maybe I could have turned into spiderman though...hmm...maybe I should have let it bite me...Well I guess its to late now! Its probably better that way anyways. Well its been fun so far up here! If anyone has any questions for me or anything, you are very welcome to write me!! ;) I love you all!

Steve

Hey Everyone,So I'm in my new area now. I'm in a city called KhonKaen. Its in the Eason which is in the Eastern part of thailand. I finally got out of Bangkok! I get to see what the rest of the country is like. But to get to Khonkaen we had to take a train up here and it took about 9 hours to get here! It was a long ride but it was sweet. I'm way excited to be serving up here. In this area of the country they speak Eason which is really really close to Laotion, sometimes I don't understand what people say but most of the time I can get the message. But Khonkaen is a big college town and it seems like its going to be fun here. The church is pretty nice except only 40 people go everyweek! How crazy is that! My first area had 100, then my second area had 60-70 and now there are only 40 going. There is a lot of work to do here. We don't have very many investigators which is to bad but we can get that up! But my new companions name is Elder Hunsaker. He seems really good! He is from Missouri. So in Khonkaen we ride our bikes everywhere. There are no taxis here like there are in Bangkok so we have to ride everywhere but its sweet! Its good to be outside and ride around, you get to talk to a lot more people that way! Well I don't have to much time right now I'll have to write more next week, I love you all! Steve

Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2009 05:12:55 +0000

So This past Sunday we had 2 more of our investigators baptized! Its the 2 women in the middle. The younger one is a sister of a member and the other one is the mother of a member! The older woman was a golden investigator! We like didn't even have to teacher her much, she already knew it all! She told us before she started learning with us she would always read her daughter's Liahonas and learned pretty much everything from those! It was really easy teaching her. Then we got her soon to be son-in-law to baptized her (he isn't in the picture). Then the other woman was learning with us but started falling away and wouldn't ever meet with us about 3 months ago so we dropped her. Then one day we went to go teach Brother Rud and Sister Tik's house (sister Tik is this woman's sister) and Sister Ma'am (the woman that just got baptized) was there and was sitting in the background listening as we talked about the Plan of Salvation. but it was sweet to seem them both get baptized! We invited her to sit with us but she said no and then started walking around. Then when we got more into the lesson she came over and sat down with us just listening. It was really good because we hadn't seen her in like 2 months. But after we left that day, Sister Tik called us and told us that Sister Ma'am wanted to start learning again! So she then came to church that Sunday and we taught her afterward and talked about baptism and she said she wanted to be baptized still! so we set a date for the day after her birthday and finished teaching her everything and she pulled through and got baptized! It was amazing to see her finally go through with it!
> So tomorrow we have a transfer period and I'm moving areas and getting a new companion. Hopefully I will be going to a cool area and getting out of Bangkok! Ive been in Bangkok for half of my mission and breathing this pollution all day long can't be good for me health...its time to move up country! lol. Well I got to go, I love you all!
