letter last week. Things have peen super busy. We got caught up with a
huge conundrum with medication for a missionary out here and they
didn't have anyone to drive them around, so there was that great part
of the day. The perks of being in a car area, right?
So this week was pretty sweet! We had brother Jim Shanahan and
Ms. Marope at church yesterday! It has been a bit since I have seen
them at church and it was superb to see them there! So let me tell you
why I chose the title that I did.
It all began on a Friday night. We were helping one of the youth
with his eagle project. Now, this was probably one of my most favorite
eagle projects because it required much creativity and tons of fun.
The idea behind it was to have a food drive and a talent show type
dealieo going on. You bring a can of food, you get in to see the
performance. Evan, the youth doing the Project, asked us to stand
outside and make sure that everyone donated before they entered. That
went rather quickly, so we helped in other ways. Now for a little back
ground... The day prior, I had just barely figured out the chords to
"We'll Bring The World His Truth" on the uke. Back to the story. I
look at Elder Babb (my new companion from Snowflake, AZ) while a
performance is going on and give him that look like I have an Idea. He
laughs a little and asks what I am thinking. "Do you know what we
should do?"
"No...?"
"We should totally go back home, snag the uke and sing a duet!
Remember, I learned that song the other day!"
"Uh... No."
"Yeah! It would be so epic!!" Sadly, my attempt to pump him up to sing
in front people was unsuccessful. "Come on!!! It would make such an
awesome story. Picture it now!" It was then when he probably
visualized us singing and sounding terrible being boo'd of stage.
"Come on! Let's just ask Evan if it would even be a possibility."
Finally, he caved!
We went and asked Evan and he said it would be awesome! That
convinced my companion for sure. We booked it to the car, went home,
snagged the uke, and went back to the church. On the way in, my
companion informed me that I would be a one man act. Lame..... We
walked into the gym and Evan saw us and said, "And now, I have a
surprise for you!" I walked up stage with little to no practice of
this song I learned probably 18 hrs ago. I, being used to on stage
performances collect my cool and perform. And the rest is explained
through the title.... Haha! I will send you all a video of how I did.
Just promise to laugh at me. A whole bunch of people came up to me and
told me I did a good job, but I felt like I could have done better. Oh
well. At least there are a bunch of people who are now coming to the
youth activity we do every Friday night. Huzzah!!
That's it for now! Love you all!
