have hurt! Sorry you can't walk on it, hope it gets better soon. It is
pretty cold here. I'll see what I can do about those videos. Have a
great week.
Hey Lila. I did have a good week. Wow yoga, that would be super hard
for me too. Good job on getting all A's! It gets you awesome stuff
like free yogurt. You didn't watch the super bowl! Do you even know
who won? That's ok if you didn't watch it, I didn't either 🙁. This
week I did a lot of missionary work. I also went on exchange with the
District leader Elder Hansen and he was just recently the assistant to
the president. He is an awesome guy. His area is Pottstown. I know
weird name, but that's actually what it's called. There's also a place
called Pottsville. There are weird town names over here.
Love Elder Shumway
Good morning. Haha so the might panthers didn't win. I'm kind of glad. It's good to see an old man get another one. I guess we will see if he's retiring or not. Yeah I heard about Sam's experience. Was it a fishing hook or just a small piece of metal? Wow ALA sure beat them, good job for Derrik. I guess he's a senior now. Is he going to go on a mission you think? I'm sure he could still go even with his diabetes. Yum venezias. For pizza places here we really have little Caesars. And that's pretty much all we can afford. Tell Bri Carpenter that I say hi and that I'm doing well. He is a good man too. Sorry you were released, I know you really liked your calling. I'm sure you'll do great in primary. Yeah sorry I haven't been taking pictures. Recently they are really trying to push not taking pictures on our IPads for some reason, just our cameras and if I send them to you I have to be at a computer and that isn't too often. Carson will do great at volleyball. I wouldn't be surprised if he makes the varsity team. Sorry about the basketball team. Hopefully Garrett can focus on other things more. High school sports are fun but there are more important things to worry about. Thanks for everything.
Love Elder Shumway
This week was pretty great. There's still snow on the ground and I
hear there's supposed to be more coming. It's also supposed to get
super cold next week as well. Next Sunday it's supposed to not get
above 22 degrees. I'm not looking forward to that. I think I'll be
fine though.
Jason came to church on Sunday. That was awesome. He loved it. Nancy
couldn't come cause she sprained her ankle the other day and can't
walk well at all. It's pretty swollen and black and blue. He said to
us during church that the best thing that ever happened to him is that
we introduced him to the church. That made me fell awesome. It's
amazing how strong the spirit is in church. Both of them have
baptismal dates. They are scheduled to be baptized on March 20th.
I will probably be transferred this next week. I really don't want to
but I feel like I've been here long enough. Dontá also finally came
back from Philly. I was so happy when he came back. We also contacted
a referral, she wanted a bible. So we come and a man opens the door
and on his shirt he has a scripture on it. So we know we are in the
right place. When we came in the couple kind of split us up. So I was
with the woman who wanted the bible and Elder Selby talked with the
man. The woman was very nice but when I brought up Joseph Smith she
kind of had a different attitude after that. We asked if we could come
back and they said that's fine, but they wanted to tell us that they
won't convert. So that was a cool experience.
The church is true. Sorry this is kind of a shorter one.

Mom,
Thanks for fasting for me. Fasting definitely works, I've seen it out
here. Yeah the snow is almost gone. Hopefully there won't be anymore
of it. Yeah the tall one is Elder Andrus, he is awesome. He does play ball. He
played basketball for BYU before he came on his mission. They usually
don't come to play ball cause they are pretty far away from the
church. The weathers fine. Little colder than I would like. I'm
getting used to it. I'm not freezing.
Yeah last week was awesome. It was a pretty good week. We were pretty
sad though that we've had to drop a lot of our investigators. It is
hard to understand why people don't accept the plan of salvation. I ask that question all
the time. Nancy and Jason are doing really well. They have a baptismal
date and Jason came to church on Sunday and he loved it. I'm so pumped
for him. It was testimony meeting and a lot of people were talking
about trials and hard times in their lives and he totally related. He
was surprised that so many people have hard times too. There were
times when we thought he was going to cry. He also told us later that
us running into him was the greatest thing that's happened in his
entire life! As for Larry we haven't seen him for a while.
Grandma sent me an email describing that ceremony it sounded really
great. It's great that they love their new car.
I really hope I can go to the temple, but I'll most likely be transferred. Yeah
we would probably go to DC. I am kind of excited to go to a new area.
I would also love to go to Philly when the temple will be dedicated,
that would be my dream.
Thank You for that package. I love getting them. I actually have lost
some weight because of it. I think I'm pretty good with whatever. I
will appreciate all of it for sure.
Somebody actually did tape it sing in church last week, but I don't have it yet. I'll see if I
can get it by next week.
I'm sure that grass at Grandpa Shumways will start growing soon enough, it always has. Wow
Grandpa Dayley is old. 72!! Yum venezias pizza, that place was really good I thought.
Haha that's a funny story about Sam getting metal in his foot. Hopefully he will be able to walk on it
soon. Now Sam will have a story to tell. Will there be a scar? Oh and
how is Carson's eye doing?
Yeah Google was being a little weird last week. Good thing it's fixed
now. Unfortunately we aren't allowed to use iCloud photo sharing. It
would probably work easier to send videos and pictures because it's
Apple.
Love you too
