I got sent down to southern Arkansas to a little town called monticello! its this tiny town of like 10,000 people! one half of the town are strait up red neck and hicks which i love but the other half is just black people who have obama paintings in their house holds(trailers) and talk hippity bipity and drive their $400 dollar car with their $5,000 32 inch rims under them while bobbin their heads!! The town consists of like 50 houses and then the rest is all trailer homes which remind me of the junk yard back at home!! its super hot and has been raining non stop!! my companion is from roosevelt Utah and know's alot about the gospel and is a pretty good trainer but he has some difficulties connecting with people! so thankfully i can help with that! we are the only missionarys in monticello but there use to be another pair here! but there may be some more back here for the next transfer! im sittin in a members house who really take care of us here! there just some back woods country folk who have a house and they love to feed us!! the dad love to hunt and buy guns so we really connected! in fact there are three pistols next to me right now on the counter and a 30-06 on the pool table behind me! so i guess u could say i allready love this family!! its was pretty frustrating at first to get doors slammed in my face and to be walkin in the heat of the day but then we got to teach this old black lady and she was really nice and i got to teach her about the restoration and she seemed really intrested so we set up a follow up date!!I landed in little rock at about 12 o'clock and prez wakolo and the AP's were waitin for us at the terminal! thankfully we all made it there safely and werent missing anyone!we went to the mission home in little rock and they fed us some dank teriyaki chicken with funeral potatoes! then we had a little devotional and testimony meeting that went really well! when it was time to go to be all the sisters stayed at the mission home and all of the elders went to the AP's appartment, which strangly reminded me of the appartment in dumb and dumber! so i slept on some tore up lazy boy which they just had layed a blanket up over just to cover up the hole in it! i slept fine it just felt like i was sleepin on a random couch they found like 30 minutes before we got there! the next morning we went to the mission home to eat breakfast and found out the trailer we had all of our luggage in had a hole in the top of it and since it was raining all night most everyones stuff got wet but thankfully marks luggage held up and kept all my stuff dry! we then loaded up the trailer and headed to the stake center where we introduce all of ourselves to the rest of the mission and then were assigned our comps. i felt i got pretty lucky to get the trainer i did so im pretty happy! after the meeting we loaded all my stuff in the nalls truck(the house im at!) and it looked like they just went muddin so i was pretty stoaked i got to hang with theese guys! when i opened the door used shotgun shells and duck calls were everywhere, so i knew i was where i was supposed to be! the nalls then took me and my comp to chili's on our way to monticello! then he showed me where war eagle boats head quartes were which is like 10 minutes outside of town! but other then all the cool redneck stuff thats around here, the missionary work is going good! we made dates for 5 people to be babtised allready and gave a lady a blessing! so i would say were doing pretty good being as its my first week here! love ya momma and ys im eating good! my comps a health nut!On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 1:01 AM, Todd J Arbon <tarbon84@fiber.net>wrote: Hi my sonshine,
How is Arkansas? Where are you? How is your trainer? What is it like? I want all of the details....I'm dying to hear all of the news.
Today at dinner we were reliving all of the old Kade stories. Most of them were ones about broken bones,skiing trips, snowmobiling, and escapades around the neighborhood. We were laughing about all of the good memories you have given us. We love you so much.
Ben and Liz were giving dad a hard time in church today because dad came home from grantsville with a muddy truck and left mud in the drive way. They thought he surely must have been sick.
Tomorrow is Memorial Day day, for us it is a work catch up day, what are you doing? Were you invited for dinner on Sunday? What have you done for meals? Are you eating good foods like we'd talked about?
I'm so glad you love your mission president. He looks like a happy man. They sent us a picture of the three of you and I now have it as my screen saver. It makes me smile to see you every time I turn my phone on. How was it to sleep at the mission home when you arrived there? I put it on face book and everyone loved seeing elder Arbon.
Jake is doing some orientation for his job but hasn't started officially working yet. Ky is still looking for a job. Brock is trying to get to tardy school and get everything made up by the end of the year. I received Garrett graduation announcement,he is actually smiling in one of the shots. Dad is working hard as usual and my computer crashed so I am typing on dads I pad. Have you received your iPad yet?
Please never forget how much you are loved. Thank you for your example to your brothers and sister. We pray for you night and day. Stay strong and work hard so the time goes by quicker. Love,love,love your momma
