Back to the gring of making money

It has been three mounths since we have left the mission, my how time flies. I thought that I would write a little bite of what has happened since we have been back. First of all we got to see Lillian and Rob baby boy, we stayed there for two days. And from there we drove to Salt Lake to the furnial of my Annt. We got up at 4:30 int the morning to ge there. It was nice to see the relatives and my brothers and sisters, they were very suprized to see us. Later that night we drove up to Bountiful for my fourty year class reunion from my first mission in Guatemala y El Salvador. What a treat to see some of my old companions and even our mission Pres. and his wife was there. After the reunion we headed out for home, by the time we got into the Jerome valley it was about 1:00 in the morning. Looking towards Twin Falls we could see the lights where the new temple was being built. And as we was driving through town we could see two new schools being built and a whole bunch of new houses and sub division I could not believe how much this town has changed in one year. When we got home it was so cold when we got out of the car, we just grabed some stuff and headed up to the office for the night. This was saturday night and conferance was sunday so it gave us a chance to rest and get ready for monday morning work. I just changed the answer on the answer machine put on my work clothes and was in business. There was a lot to do to get things up and running so I left that to Connie and Angela. And the rest was just me and the Lord back in the work force agan. With in the first two weeks we had brough in enough money to get the business up and running. And I quickly found out that I needed help to get all the work done that wqas comming in. Alma had gotten a good job with Reises Plumbing where his is learning more about new work. And Diago had gotten a new job in lath and plaster doing house. In about 3 weeks I found a man who name is JoseMunoz that spoke spanish and English very well and was all so willing to learn a new trade, so I left him my card and told him to call me when he was ready to go to work. About a month and a half later he called and has been working with me since. Also about the first of December Alma was laid off at Reises Plumbing and now I have a great work force again. Not that I couldn't do it all any more it's that part of me keeping the business going was to teach others how to have a good livehood and also the good people that depent on me to take care of their plumbing. I even had one lady say to me[ I don't mind that you people go out and serve the Lord, I think that it's great but from now on you are not allowed to leave till i'm dead!!!] Of course I teared up a little knowing that some of my customers love me that much. Any way it's been about four months now and the business is doing great. Also since we have been home Ammon and michell hand a baby girl, and she was born on the 9 of Dec. and her name is Mara. Alma and Missty had a baby girl the first day of January ,her name is Skyla Nevaeh,can you believe it missed a good tax deduction for a whole year by one day. I have just recieved a new calling in the spanish branch as first counselor. We have hit the ground and it was great to be so needed here. I lose about fourty pounds in Mexico and also Connie lose over 10 pounds. We learned so much in Mexico and we are going to keep up on writing, and of course hearing from everybody else will be great too.
