So glad you enjoyed Sarah's baptism, that sounds like an absolutely incredible experience. I did read the talk by Packer, and I'm still reading it over again, there's so much in it, I love it! Thank you so much! The one standing around wasn't watching it, it had been his companion. He just said, well, I'm not even going to bother trying to hide it." He's such a good guy, but good guys do dumb things. We didn't really even reprimand them. We told them they knew what they were doing was wrong and talked about being on a mission and how it's the only chance we have to serve the Lord like this. The one elder that was standing brushing his teeth has had a bunch of bad comp and is just completely unmotivated. He has a rough background and is basically the only active member in his family and he just wants to be done. We just talked to him about how he was doing and then helped them take their tv out to the dump. In southern Cali, everyone gets rid of everything by putting it by the dump. Couches, tv's, fridges, cabinets, beds, bikes, you name it. All the kids would love it! It's so easy to be disobedient here. Everything is just given to you. I told president, not the details, and told him we had taken care of it. 

Hahaha, this week we got Quran bashed! It was funny. We Tracted a lot, and are just trying as hard as we can to find people. Lots of tracting. Yay! I love it! It's so much fun. Last night we knocked on a door and the mom pulled the 'we're Catholic' card and was about to shut the door, then we said something and we ended up giving her a Book of Mormon and went in and talked with their family for 15 minutes or so and they gave us brownies (not weed brownies) and said we could come back on Sunday. It was awesome! That's about all that happened this week. I'll try to think of some other things. Love you!

PS  Ooh! On Tuesday we went on bike again. We went 46 miles including some of the steepest hills in the mission! I was accelerating super fast down a hill and when I hit 45 mph I chickened out and hit my brakes because it was really fast. I would've gone 60 easy. It was really fun!
