Dear Family,
Kaydian is in her early 40's and single! She has a 19, 13 and 5 year old! Chris, Melleke, and Armani! She's from Jamaica but has lived in New York until she had to move to Georgia about 2 years ago! She has an awesome accent!:) She was taught by missionaries in New York and didn't get baptized, the spanish Elders saw her in our apartment complex and talked with her! She told them that she was interested in meeting with missionaries again! We still have a lot to teach her and she wasn't able to make it to church Sunday because her 13 year old has a mental illness and he's been having a hard time lately... We haven't been able to meet with her either! We left her cookies at her door and we frequently call her to see how things are going! Hopefully we will get in more contact and be able to set up a date that we can teach her all of the lessons!
Another family we are teaching is the Majors! We've been meeting with Anne Major a lot! She's having a tough time in recognizing the spirit because she was raised Catholic and they're taught not to trust their feelings! But her husband believes in the Book of Mormon and we've only met with him once so we haven't been able to talk to him much! But next time we're planning on giving him a baptisimal date also!
I'm sure I'm getting a new companion! Not sure if I'll be staying in the same area, but I've been with Elder Anderson for 2 transfers and that's usually the longest you stay with your trainer! Any way we went to Amicolola falls today! I'll be sending pictures and things from that! It was a lot of fun!
Thanks for sending the cards! That will be a big help to me when they get here! I also was wandering if I could get a calender or something too that has a lot of dates and things of like birthdays and stuff! That would be pretty cool! Sounds like things are going great back at home! I remember meeting Janet's husband a few times! He's a really cool dude! I'm happy for her!:) One of us will be transferred next Wednesday! Most likely him but anything can happen really.. Thank you for writing every week! I love getting letters, emails and updates from y'all! Love ya!

A couple excerpts from other letters....
Kyle,
Georgia is great! The weather has been perfect! Not too humid and in the 80's!:) We haven't gotten much rain... Mostly get it during the night time which is awesome! I HATE biking in the rain! Our Baptism is going to have to be set back a week or two! We've been trying to stay in contact with Kaydian, but she's been very busy with her kids so she wasn't able to make it to our last appointment or to church on Sunday! So hopefully next Saturday we will have her baptized! Hope all is well! Stay fresh!

Dad,
Sounds like you're staying busy with work! How are your clients working out for you? You getting good payments! Hope so! Hope everything is great! Sounds like the typical Boman residence! Always busy with something! That's too bad about your car! (Mom told me) Hope all works out for the best! How's your home teaching going? I never really realized why we go home teaching until I got out here! It's really an important tool in the Lords kingdom! Hope all is well! Love you!

Brooke,
Sounds like the kiddos are staying busy and you're all set for the new dude to be runnin wild!!:) It'll be fun to meet him eventually! He'll probably be really scared of me by the time I meet him! That should be fun! Oh and I got a Michael Jordan jersey from a less active family that has been pretty active the last few weeks! It's pretty dope!:) Hope all is well! Love you!
