Looking Smart!

So....I get this text of this nerdy boy the other night from Sister Logan. Yes. This is my boy.

I'm thinking he should have left Bishop Logan's glasses in the 90's!! He had to give him a pretty hard time about this one!

Email from Monday:
Mom,

That is crazy that McKadee is that old already!!! Do you feel stinking old or what!? Haha! 

That is a real bummer that Gma can't go to Conference! But its good that Gpa is still taking them! 

That is fun y'all went to camp Bradley! Oh the memories there! Those pics were real pretty!

That is crazy that just you and the Mix boys were there! Haha! So how was that Clark guy so funny?

Well sorry to cut this short, mom, but we have to head in to Farmington in like 15 minutes. 

Can you tell me what my balance is!? Por Favor?  We will probably grab lunch down there.

I will write you a letter! 

Love ya!

Mom,
   This week has been pretty good! It started kinda slow, but we picked it back up! We taught 7 lessons this week, but they were all pretty good! I conducted my first exchange this week. It was pretty fun! Pretty stressful though! That is how the whole district leader thing is, just stressful. It isn't unbearable, but not fun, haha!
   That is funny Sister Bigelow gets a kick out of my emails, haha! She is pretty funny.
   That's good that the Berhisels enjoyed your work! Every time you made our flowers they were like the best at the dance!
   So, I will be able to see all my previous companions again next Tuesday, because we are having a district leader training. Weird how that all worked out!
   That is bittersweet that you are done at the surgery center! So how often are you working at MSTI now?
   What is new and exciting there in Twin?
Love ya!

Mama!

Those are some nice war wounds! Haha! 

That is good y'all had a good time at the reunion!

That is awesome that stake conference was so good for you guys too! Dad didn't sound too happy that he had to say the opening prayer though!  haha!

That is sad that they will be released soon!

The moccasins are so comfy!!!

That is good that Dotty is doing so good! 

That is awesome all that new stuff is coming in to Twin! I am going to get all my money selling plasma when I get home haha! 

This week was really good! I went on exchanges in Lukachukai! And Elder Van Ry did really well taking over the area ! He set us up to pick up 2 new investigators! So we went back yesterday and picked one of them up! It was awesome! I told him that he should be getting ready to take over the area next  transfer! 

The other 2 Elders had a baptism on Saturday! It was good! I interviewed them all and they were all super prepared! Then I was able to confirm one of them on Sunday. That was pretty neat! 

But other than that our week has been pretty good! 

Love ya!

13 Month Mark!

Mom!

I totally didn't realize that yesterday was my 13 month mark until one of the Elders brought it up yesterday! I also just realized that I will hit 14 months while here in Round Rock still! 14.5 months, 2 areas, 4 comps! Whoot whoot! 

I am freaking jealous that y'all are going to Gerties today! You are probably there right now! I could use a good case of the Gerts Squirts right now! Wow! This email has a lot to do with excretement's!

Congratulations on your work eval! That is freaking awesome!! Speaking of careers, I changed what I want to do again! But, USU will still be a great school for engineering! But I probably won't come home early for school. I ate my own words! I was talking to Elder Cook about it one day (thinking I was gonna be able to fly under the radar my whole mission) I said I will go home early for school unless I am in a leadership position. Well, now that I am in that  position I will eat them!

That is sweet y'all are going to phoenix in February! Haha! That is a weird senior trip, but that will be fun for y'all!

That is cool dad is saying the opening prayer in Stake Conference! Haha! 

How is Mike Cutler doing? 

That does suck that we lost to Wood River! They were always like last in regionals!

Enjoy y'alls Gerties! Lucky ducks! 

Love ya!

Letter from Tuesday:
Dear Family,
   This past week has been really good. We have had some really awesome lessons! 
   Elder Van Ry is doing pretty good! He is caught in an awkward stage where he wants to teach everyone everything, but he has a hard time teaching some people some things.
   Bobby, our gangster investigator, is doing awesome! He has been doing a really good job at trying to keep the Word of Wisdom. He relapsed this last week, but he saw immediate lack of blessings from it so he will do better this time! He loves church and I love seeing him there! His past life is pretty obvious but it is even more obvious that he is changing. Remind me to tell you what his tattoo says some day!
   We have been walking our buns off lately trying to contact a lot of potential investigators Elder Cook and I found, but never got back around to contacting. It has been pretty successful.
   I love the Navajo People! They are so fun, loving and loveable! I am seriously looking forward to the day that the Lamanites "blossom as a rose!"
  I love y'all!
Elder Cade

Email from today:
Mom,

This week was pretty sweet! The Fireside was amazing! Elder Holland is freaking amazing we didnt get to meet him personally, but just being in the same room as him was pretty sweet! He spoke mostly about personal conversion! That has been the big push lately! Because it tends to be that you have converted missionaries you tend to convert more people! He is way more animated and less serious than he is in conference! But still extremely intense where you felt like he was screaming right at you! I did see Caleb and at first I couldn't believe who his trainer was! He came walking in with Elder Cook! I was a little disappointed that E. Cook gets to train him but that is freaking awesome! So he is over serving in the Rez half of Page! So that was pretty cool! When he saw me yelled ''Cade!'' then he corrected himself and was like ''I mean  Elder!'' It was hilarious! He did give me a hug! Haha! Then the giant Sasquatch named Elder Kay walked in and plopped down right next to me! That was awesome we have way too much fun together! We were cracking jokes the whole time! Kay is an old man now he is getting ready to hit 18 months here in a few weeks! Its crazy how it flies by! He had to make fun of me for being DL even though he's still one! But now all of may previous companions are currently training and district leading! Haha! 

That is nutso psycho that you did all  the flowers! So are y'all thinking about making that a business? That would be pretty sweet! HAha!

Thanks for the pics they are awesome except the middle one haha!

''Have to give Sister Bigelow a chance''? You didn't think I was or what? Haha! You should tell her I'm a DL now then see what she thinks of me haha!

That is a bummer that gma is not doing as well as gpa! But that is awesome that yall have an Isom Reunion coming up! Tell everyone I say hi!

I am so jealous all the kids get to go to General Conference! I am excited to watch it though! What is the rule for like Colton and I going when I get back? Or would we have to go separate? You should ask for me!

I did get the micro t! Tell him sorry. I thought I told him! 

That is sweet that Ry and Shell are getting a new puppy though! That will be fun for them!

Well, talk to ya next week! 

Love ya!

Elder Cade 

New Calling!

First thing this morning we get this email that leaves us all in suspense until this afternoon!

We are headed to football practice so we won't be able to email until this afternoon sometime. But that gives y'all some time to guess what my transfer news is! It is pretty crazy so think outside the box! I will tell you it this afternoon when we get on, but only if everyone takes a guess what it is! Otherwise I won't tell anyone!!!! Muhaha

So this afternoon, we finally got the news:
I am continuing to train Elder Van Ry in Round Rock along with being called as the district leader! I am poopin my pants! Oh....And we have a fireside with Jeffery R. Holland this Saturday where I will be able to see Caleb and everyone else!


Mama!

This week has been pretty good and crazy! Well, you already know my news! 

Pretty Nutso-psycho! DL sounds like such a load of new responsibilities! I guess the Lord qualifies who He calls! I will just bank on that and "go and do" Haha!

That is rough that Sis Bigelow isn't doing so good! I hate having to take sick days! They make me feel so worthless!

That is crazy Katy is back already! It seems like she just left like right before all of us did! That's good to hear she is doing good though!

That is also rough that Grandma isn't doing the greatest! But it sounds like everything will work out! I did just email her so she will be getting that hopefully! I am going to write her out a letter too! That is freaking hilarious that grandpa threatens people with you haha!!

That was nice of you to take Hancock out for his B-day! How did they like TF sandwich co? Oh I've got to tell you! Remember how I took all y'all there before I left? Well, right before I left Cortez the Cooks took me out to a place that was so stinking similar it was kinda creepy but really funny! 

That is awesome Bernie is almost there! Good luck with the wedding coming up though haha! Tell them all Congrats from me! 

I will try my darndest to write y'all a letter this week! When I get yours.

Love y'all! 

Elder Cade Joseph Robinson

 

Thanks again to the Logan's for taking pictures and posting them!

 

Fair Time

Mom,

It sounds like y'all had a very eventful week and today was probably the same! How was the first day of school? How did Sam do?

Not a whole lot is new down here! We went on a sick hike today to a really cool arch in Lukachukai! It was like straight up a mountain but it was totally worth it! When we got up there the members that took us up said that we had to carve our names into the rock because that is what missionaries have been doing for like 20 years so it was pretty sick! 

That is a real bummer that Kurt can't go on a mission! 

That is sweet the Hopes are having twins though! Tyler told me that a couple of our classmates are prego too! Haha that is crazy to think!!!

That is really sweet that Aub got that whole blood drive together haha! It sounds like that was a pain in the butt for a lot of people!!! 

How was your missionary Bday party?!?! Was it lame or boring haha?

You make it sound like our house is boring though! If i was half the fun you guys are a bunch of dead beats!!!

That is awesome that y'all got sams glasses thing worked out haha! Did he get a new prescription?or is he still equally blind!?

On Saturday we  went to a fair in chinle and some guy wanted to take some pictures of us so we got some pretty good ones haha! I will send them to ya in a minute! There was a Pow Wow going on at the fair though and that was really cool i will have to take yall to one when i get home! We also went to the rodeo!

Well I do plan on getting you a letter written here after I am done emailing! So i will tell you more there!

Thank you and Love ya!

Elder Cade

 

 

HUMP Day!!!!

Mom,

Thank you so much for that sweet package!!! That was so awesome I think the pictures were my favorite part! But we did enjoy the goodies too! Elder Manumaleuna hit a year the same day I did so we blew that candle out together and today we are going to burn my shirt. Maunu is cooking. Elder Hirschi is burning slacks and Elder Geilmann is burning his tie, since he never did and we will have a full outfit, haha! Dont worry, I have one of Elder Hirschi's old shirts I am burning!

I am so bummed Tyler didnt get his call!! I was so looking forward to that!!! 

That is so crazy Riss will be a freshman in college this year! Did she really register for that or is that later? Where is she going for that first semester?

That is terrible that that sister got burned! That sounds so bad!!! It hurts like the dickens when you get splashed with hot Frybreads oil but I can't even imagine what is like to get a burn like that!!! 

That is hilarious you are throwing the district a bday party!!

We had interviews with President this week and I asked him straight up if I could train Caleb and he wrote it down so we will see in a couple weeks! This transfer I think we will be on schedule with y'all up there because it is a 5 week transfer to get some things lined out. Are y'alls just 1 week ahead of ours?

Haha, I cant wait to meet Dotty too; she sounds pretty awesome!!

How did Aub do at driving? Is she as terrible as Riss? haha!!

Love ya!
