How many Ashcrofts do you weigh?


February 15, 2013

Dear Family,

The events of this week haven’t been exciting at all. During the time I was sick my day consisted of lying there, sleeping, or nibbling on a little food at meals. The best part of my day was when I got to hear stories from the outside world. Since I really didn’t do anything I’ll just talk about the funny things that have happened recently.

One great thing was on Valentine’s Day Elder Whitfield was pretending to ask a Hermana to the “Valentines Dance”. So Elder Smith, who is a little odd or more than a little odd ha ha, quickly asked Hermana Jensen to the Valentines Dance (thinking there really was one). The joke for the rest of the day was who was going with who to the dance that night. We all thought it was hilarious that Smith thought there was a dance when there is a no hugging girls and no dancing, while as a missionary rule.

There is an Elder here, Elder Ashcroft who is very skinny and only weighs 125lbs. We decided that we would weigh things in Ashcrofts. I weighed 1.5 Ashcrofts until I got sick now I weigh only 1.4 Ashcrofts. Some Elders are 2.5 Ashcrofts. We now convert all weights to Ashcrofts.

As for our visas we are now just waiting for them. The earliest we could get them would be this Wednesday so we’ll see. We didn’t get travel plans with the rest of our District either. We won’t get them until we either get our Visas or get a temporary reassignment.

Thanks again for the birthday packages and please thank both Grandparents for me! I love you all very much!  Elder Pickle
