We did indeed have a great Stake Conference. (The missionaries met with Elder Russell M Nelson on Sat. and then he addressed the whole Stake on Sunday.) Our two meetings with Elder Nelson went great! Very inspiring. He talked alot about families and relationships on Sunday and about missionary work and the Book of Mormon on Saturday.
We went to the tram yesterday with our investigator Dieter and a youth member , Aaron Preswitch, who is going to the Moscow Russia Mission in March. It was a great day. It was about 30* and I had on long underwear, a long sleeve shirt and a sweatshirt. When people tell me to bundle up I usually do, but I forgot who was telling me to bundle up, people from NM. I could have gone in a long sleeve shirt and would have been fine. It was great though and I got lots of pictures.
I fasted last week on Wednesday for grandma and I continue to pray for her.
Thanks for the care package. I have lots of cookies now and not enough time to eat them. It was good to see Aunt Shelly and Uncle Bill.

Central and northern New Mexico, southwest Colorado
New Mexico State Flag
The yellow field and red symbol colors are the colors of Spain. First brought to New Mexico by Spanish explorers in 1540. On New Mexico's flag we see a red sun with rays streching out from it. There are four groups of rays with four rays in each group. This is an ancient sun symbol of a Native American people called the Zia. The Zia believed that the giver of all good gave them gifts in groups of four. These gifts are:
The four directions - north, east, south and west.
The four seasons - spring, summer, fall and winter.
The day - sunrise, noon, evening and night.
Life itself - childhood, youth, middle years and old age.
All of these are bound by a circle of life and love, without a beginning or end.
