Yeah so crazy story about the Tornado... So we did not get the tornado
warnings until late Sunday night. We went to a members house, they are
awesome. They are the Box family. We were sharing a message with them when
all of a sudden you could hear the warning siren that is super loud around
the city. When it goes off it means take shelter now. The Zone leaders and
Aps are calling us and telling us to get in to our apartment but we were at
a members house. So they said we could stay there. They turned on the news
and it said that the tornado was right off of Hwy 10. We quickly realized
that we were right off Hwy 10. We ran outside and looked up and the Tornado
cloud was right above us. We ran inside and all of us got into the closet
an hid under there! It was nuts! Then it headed past us to the next city,
there it touched down. We got word this morning that 17 people died in the
tornado that went right over our head! It was insane. Great story for the
future though, cause its all about the memories.
Alex's baptism was great! He is awesome, his mom on the other hand... she
is a crazy lady. She started talking and complaining about HER life story
at HIS baptism... there was also another girl getting baptized at the same
day, her name was Ebony. I got to interview Ebony for Baptism which was
great! She did super well and loved her baptism. We are super excited for
him and getting the priesthood in a couple weeks. He loves going to Young
mens and is having a great time. It feels good to have good success.
Driving the van is awesome! I love being high off the ground and driving
this huge van. I am getting pro at parking it. Like a boss. Yeah im sure
dad is saying oh he cant drive big things, remember that one time he nailed
a semi trailor.. haha good times.
So i cant even tell you how excited i got when i saw the pictures and i saw
that dad bought the truck! I went crazy in the family history center! i am
so excited, i cant believe it! i am so excited that we have that now...
man. And dad got a new work truck? All of these blessings are just flowing
out right now! Man...crazy. Well i hope that he is excited. It was a great
week that was full of excitement and fun stuff happening! Our dang
apartment does not tell us that we get packages so i didnt know that i had
one until you said that. So i will get it today. We are doing good from the
tornado, it touched down not to far from us so that is a great story! NADO
CITY! have a great week! Love ere'body! Elder Nielson
