Finally after 19 years......

 Howdy all you wonderful people, hope you had an awesome week. Mine was an adventure, so sit back and grab a cold Dr. Pepper and enjoy this week's shenanigans.

 So to get started, let's start on monday. So we went shopping and did the weekly typical p-day stuff. We went to the guitar store so I could get a new E string for my guitar, since the last one went snap! So I got a new string, and then we went to the church. I called my mom, and chatted for a bit. I then played some games with some other missionaries. We then left and went to our WML house, Brother Bell! We played some board games, and I strung my guitar string back up, and got it tuned. Brother Bell made us tacos, and they were pretty premium. We even had a competition on who could eat more tacos. I only got 7 down, which isn’t a lot but I aint a very big guy. We then moved a couch for him and a piano, since he was getting a newer couch. We then went home and had dinner. I was playing the guitar, and I tuned it in a super warm house, and our apartment is super cold. So if you don’t play guitar and don’t know what happens when you take a tuned guitar in the heat to the cold. They tend to snap! And if you haven't caught on yet, my brand new string snapped right in half. So after some frustration and some redneck thinking, I took an extra B string I had and strung it to an E. It was super tight and scary to tune, but it's still holding. We then went to bed, because we were exhausted.

 Now on Tuesday, we had a very simple day. We went up to Gridley for MLC (mission leadership conference). Basically a big meeting with everyone in leadership in the whole mission. We were there to represent the SM team, and to talk about the social media challenge we had going this transfer. It was pretty fun to see all of the leadership in the mission. We then went to a really good Mexican restaurant called Los Charros Taqueria. Super good food, and everyone went. It was a party. Elder Kahaialii got a 2 foot burrito. Yep, it was insane. Anway, we then went to Yuba to help out the Hermanas. We did a departing testimony video, when we set up to shoot it, we didn't have our SD cards for the cameras. But don't stress, they were just in a different bag that we had with us. We eventually got home, when we got home we went to dinner with a super lit family. The food was super good, and then they took us home in a dodge challenger. It wasn't the HellCat model, it was the 392. But it was still fast and cool! We got home and did some video editing then we went to bed. 

Now today was very interesting, it started out good and ended with a whack and snap! Literally! So allow me to explain how today went down. So we had a World wide social media call, it happens every week. It was just another meeting, we then went to DC! DC was pretty good. We then went home and did some social media work. We then went to a lesson with a guy named William. It was a super great lesson, We may end up putting him on date next Time we meet. We then started biking home. Well, I was making a left-hand turn. And as I did, the bike slid out from underneath me. And since I have wrecked enough, I knew what to do. So I threw the bike, and I tucked and rolled. And well... I hit the ground a wee harder then expected. And I had so much adrenaline, I jumped up and kept biking. I had no other option besides getting home. And I was at an intersection waiting for a light to turn green. I showed elder K my hand and asked if it looked funny to him because it did to me. So we got home and washed it out, then decided to go get an xray done. And our EQ president came to pick us up for dinner, but he was super kind and took us all over to get the help I needed. And so that's how I broke my hand. That's the story in a nutshell!! We then went home and went to bed.

On Thursday, After a not so good night of Sleep, We went to the mission office to do a video for our car coordinator. We then went home and did lots of video editing. That's pretty much all we did. We also had a dinner with some lit members. Then we went to bed, because I was exhausted.

Now on Friday, the APS got us a car!! So we did some editing and made some contacts. We also went tracting but had no success. We then had dinner then we went home and did more video editing then went to bed. 

On Saturday, we did some more editing. We then did our weekly planning and then planned With our whole social media team. We then went tracking and met a super lit lady Who we talked to for about an hour. We then went home and called it a night.

On Sunday, we had a stake conference. It was super good! And the best part was seeing everyone from the 8th ward. I love that ward so much And I connected with them so well. We then went to the Biggs house, they have known Elder K his whole life. We had some good soup, I'm being for real. We then went home and did tons of editing. We then went to our dinner. And it was okay, just really dry. We then went home and then President Basha came over to say hi. So we chatted with him for a while. We then went to bed!!!

Well that's it for this week, ‘Keep drinking, drink deeply, drink dailey Please keep drinking” -President Pratt Roseville stake president stake, stake conference address.

  Howdy yall, this week was an insane week to say the least. The title of this email goes with about everyday this week. So throw on your boots 👢, and get ready for the most chaotic week of my mission.  So on Monday 6/24, we started out our normal P-day like we always do. We went shopping and did some apartment cleaning. We then went to the church to chill, when we got there, I remembered that my bike still was broken. If yall remember what happened 2 weeks ago when the pedal fell off, y’all will remember that I put it back on. Well the pedal still wasn't 100% good, and in fact I had to stop constantly and tighten it back up. So we borrowed the Zone leader's truck, grabbed the bike and took it to the shop. The dude at the shop was kind of a rude dude. But long story short, he gave us a discount because we were missionaries and he fixed it. Now here's where our day goes absurd real fast. So Elder Anderson was playing basketball with some other Elders. While playing basketba...

We started off with going to the other elders apartment since it's in the next building over. We live in an apartment complex. We hung out with then and then went shopping. We came home and I called the family. We then went to the massive church. This building has 2 of everything, besides 2 gyms and 2 baptismal fonts. We played pickleball and I played the piano and hung out. We then went to another building where the zone was at. We got there and I played the organ and piano a lot. We came home and changed and headed to our dinner. On the way to dinner some dude flipped us off and said FU Mormons!!! Let's just say he was not happy to see 2 good looking missionaries on the roads in Antelope. We got to our dinner appointment and we had dinner with my favorite member in this area. His name is Bryan and he...

So how did praying go? Please sit back and relax and enjoy part 11? Of the Elder Bennett mission experience.       1/22- P-day for the Win!!! We started off with waking up and getting ready for the gym. We got all ready to go, while we were almost out of the door, I grabbed my phone and looked at the time and it said 1:33. I was like wait what? I looked at another clock and it also said 1:33. I looked at Elder Koyle and asked him do you know ow what time it is? He said “6:30 I think?” I said “Elder it's 1:30 in the morning, im going back to bed.” So we went back to bed. We then woke up at the actual 6:30 and went to the gym. After the gym, we came back and headed to the store. While at the store I bought a pan to make brownies in🤣. After the store we ...
