Mom,
So that is cool that Lanae was able to give her farewell I am sure she
will enjoy her mission.
So that would be awesome if the Enos came on the cruise.I am sure a lot of people want to meet the one whose companion shot a kid with the blow dart. I actually was talking to an Elder who I told that story to and when I told him he was laughing so
hard that he couldn't´t talk at the next door nor could he stop laughing
he was leaning over the stair well laughing. It was bad and to make it
worse the guy let us in and he was still laughing. Well he called me
and told me he was getting married and what not. Then follows with so
the other day I was going through some stuff at home and yeah I
totally found a blow dart gun. He was so proud I guess he brought it
ought and was like why did you hide this from me for so long. As
for Beus he is going to come on the cruise well if he has the money.
But he seems to be excited about it and isn´t to upset about the loss
of New York.
Anyways this week has been good I can´t complain were still working
hard. We were able to get into the local university which is a booming
little place it has about 60-80 students. Hahhaa I almost laughed when
they said it. When I was talking to one of the students they were like
yup one year we got up to 90 my response was did you throw a party?
The answer was no. But oh well. In all honesty though they all seemed
to get along with us which is good but we need to be able to use that
so we can start teaching them. They all have Christian backgrounds
which is good because it drops the annoying students who think they
are to smart to believe in God. But also this week I was preparing for
district meeting. It was all on Revelatory Process through the Book of
Mormon. Its interesting because it all gives things to help the
investigator. But here is some things I liked that we should do. It
talks about likening the scriptures to the investigators. Cause when
you liken it to them it creates a mental bridge that connects
understanding doctrine and living doctrine. This is something we need.
We need to not just understand what we teach but also live it. Second
thing that I liked was it talked about the Moronis Promise. It
encourages Missionaries and I would say members as well to continue to
take this challenge and restrengthen your testimony. So that you can
then take confidence in the promise when you have others do. So these
are things I want to extend you and the family make sure that you
apply the scriptures to yourself. And always look to improve your
testimony. Anyways love ya tons.
Love ya,
Elder Davis.

Letter 2-14-11 Happy Valentine's Day
Mom,
So yeah you heard correct I have been sick it has been not fun at all. I swear I never got sick before at the start of my mission. But then again at the start my snot wasn't freezing in my other areas. But story time. So Thursday night I think it was I was sleeping and I woke up and was sweating. As bad as that is it wasn't the worse of it all. I was also shivering cause I was so cold. My mind begins to race and I was like what the heck I swear only girls are supposed to have hot cold flashes. Yeah so for that night I thought for sure something was seriously going wrong. But of course everything was fine and I wound up alive and well.
Other then that some other things would be me calling Sister Simpson and asking her if she had a blow dryer I could have. She thought it was the funniest thing ever. Especially when I told her it was so I could do my hair. Then I was like no no Sister Simpson I am totally kidding its just so I can dry my shoes when they get wet. I would be lying if I didn't say my favorite person to make laugh is Sister Simpson she has by far one of the funniest laughs I have ever heard. The next thing was Tuesday I decided to get up and do a little exercise so I jumped up on a stationary bike that is way old school. So I begin tearing it up on this bike and like five minutes into sitting on it and pedaling. I was like yup this is why I hated the bicycling merit badge so bad so I got off the bike and decided that was for sure the worse idea I have ever had. I am still pretty positive that is what got me sick but haven't really gone to the doctors yet to find out. But other then that this week was uneventful I was slept from basically Thursday-Saturday.
I unfortunately missed out on leadership training. Which is always good for getting some good President Simpson quotes and what not. But also honestly its also a really good opportunity to learn and walk away being a better missionary. So I was bummed about that but lately I was thinking in Alma 7 verse 11 it says "He will take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his people." And then that made me think truly not just cause I was sick but how much Christ really undertook. I must say truly each day I am pretty amazed at the fact of how much of it you never know or even sometimes when you did know it and then you begin to think more on it you will always walk away amazed. At times its interesting you sit and you watch people drive by and you think if only you knew what we offer would you drive by with your middle finger up. But obviously they don't hence the reason we go knock on their doors. Joking aside though it made me really think do I know what I offer? Do I know that for my entire life I have been given the greatest gift imaginable. I am grateful though for being a member and especially grateful for being a missionary even when my snot freezes or eat it walking on the ice and look like a fool. But I hope you have fun this week happy Valentines day. Love ya tons.
Love ya,
Kyle

Snot sickles 2-8-11
Mom,
So lets see this week has been awesome. I have been to Main so much that the people at the border now know my name I feel so accepted lol. But its awesome. Minus when you get a new person who wants to prove a point and then stops us and has us open our car only to find a Book of Mormons and stuff like that. I always want to say if you open the hood you have to take one of everything there.
Anyways though this area is a lot of fun. Crazy thing though it has been by far the coldest place I have ever served in since being here. There has been 3 major snow storms since I have been here. I am getting less and less bad at driving on ice. And for the first time my snot froze that is right it froze just like dumb and dumber. Minus no one went pee on me to warm me up. It was so awesome though so normally its cold your nose just gets runny right well all of a sudden it just didn't get runny and like it felt weird when I would wiggle my nose so sure enough I checked and it was frozen I was so happy. But then once the excitement of that wore off I just got really cold and was like well this sucks now my toes are frozen and I my face if it were to get flicked it would hurt. So yeah its cold her and there is a lot of snow its so crazy. I am actually feeling a winter. Kind of like but glad it will be my last. Oh one last crazy of the snow storm so they come and plow are parking lot right. Well they didn't tell us to move our car so yeah they plowed it in. I forgot to take a picture but the snow around it was taller then the car it was crazy.
Side note I am glad that Colburn was able to use my major bad idea as a way to teach a lesson in EQ. It wasn't such a bad idea till President found out really it was funny. But then he found out and it wasn't so funny anymore just the way most of these ideas end up being.
More serious note. Things here are going good. We are continuing to work hard. And trying our best to find people. Thinks should start happening were both excited and have good feelings for the area. Which is always helpful when both are enthused to go work. Cause believe it or not some days its hard to go out and its nice to have some there pushing to get up and go to work. So things should be good here. Can't complain I am excited to see how things turn out.
Anyways I love ya tons got to go bye for now!
Love ya,
Kyle

letter recieved 1-31-11
Mom,
So whats up? So yeah with transfers the weather really wasn't that
bad. What really made it go behind schedule was first the fact that
because they thought it was going to be bad they shut down the airport
which meant that the new missionaries got stuck in New York lol, And
also the fact that they said there was going to be a foot of snow and
freezing rain both of which didn't happen. But in all honesty the area
is pretty sweet. We go to Maine everyday if we so choose. I shop in
Maine and get milk for yes you guessed it 3.44 a gallon which your
going who cares but in Canada you pay 3.96 for a half gallon. Chicken
is like 8 bucks for 2.5 lbs you would normally pay like 20 bucks for
that at least if now probably more actually. Well lets see 5 chicken
breast will cost about 26-32 bucks. So things here are awesome when it
comes to that.
But story time that will make you laugh kind of. Maybe make you kind
of go through the emotions of me offering to buy Cameron Brown a soda
during fast offerings. So here we go. Well it all starts with me
finding the red bull girls right. You know the ones that drive around
downtown Halifax and give out Red Bulls so me being me was like Elder
we got to get one. So we stop the girls talk to them and I come out
and was like can we have a free Red Bull and the of course give us
one. I decide to drink mine before bed time. Stay up till 2 haha make
the mistake of telling the Assistants, And then bam were sitting in
the office and Elder Randall kind of quietly/loudly whispers to Elder
Smith did you stay till 2 as well. So President goes who stayed up
till 2 so I go I did (thus begins the circus de Davis) he goes why so
I go well I drank a energy drink President you did what? Why did you
do that? So I go well cause I got it for free. He goes so if I gave
you a bottle of urine would you drink it? I laugh no President that's
gross. So then he goes Elder Davis don't drink an energy drink on your
mission or even after your mission ever again ok? I go ok. Then he
goes how did you get it for free? Again me dumbie oh the Red Bull
girls gave it to me. President the who? You know the girls that drive
around in the red bull car everyone always stops them and gets a
drink. Haha then I switch subjects on him cause he asks if someone
hands you a bottle that looks like alcohol but it isn't alcoholic do
you drink it so I said no its the appearance of evil. So that kind of
makes him happy then he goes on about how two Elders in one of his
zones drank this Woodpecker Apple Cider which apparently said
nonalcoholic but really had 3%. So now time for the switch of subjects
since I don't want President to lecture me much longer. So President
did they get drunk? And then he does his chuckle and goes oh yeah they
did. So bam conflict over. Elder Smith was definitely squirming and
didn't say a word the entire time just went really bright red. The
assistants told me that was the best subject change they have ever
seen. And also one of the funniest conversations they have ever seen
President have. I told them yeah thanks wieners.
But anyways mom sorry yeah like I said at first you will be like come
on really. But down the road you will laugh(he hopes I will laugh).
Oh so yeah Colburn that means I can't drink a red bull anymore with you when we head to the church welfare farm.
Serious note though the area will be good for
me. Its a small town. But there is a member in the ward who use to be
a local 70 so that is cool. He built a loft in his house for us. And
ever other week we will be going down to his house for 2-3 days to
work his area. So I am really excited for that. And other then that we
will be working and trying to find people to teach. It will be a lot
of fun. This town is super small. Like by far the smallest place I
have ever served in. So it will teach me a lot. Anyways I love you talk to
ya later.

letter recieved 1/24/11
Mom,
So whats up mom! So as Laura told you I am getting transferred to St. Stephens which is right on the border of Maine. Which will be awesome. Mostly because well everything is cheaper and more awesome there. For example cheese, milk, and chicken will be like half the price. So I am really excited about that.
It was crazy when I found out it all started with President calling me and leaving me a message. So I call him back and he makes some small talk about a bunch of stuff and you could tell something was up. So I am like yeah but whats up President so he goes well Elder Davis I feel strongly inspired to give you an assignment that I know your to do. So he tells me I am going to St. Stephens it will be awesome I am a little nervous he told me of some concerns but without struggle where is victory. So I am excited well and to be honest kind of nervous for this new area it will be different for sure. But I am excited for the challenge it will be a huge growing experience I am sure of it just the way things sound. So I am sad to leave Elder Smith he was an awesome companion I really got a long with him but, at the same time. I am going to the States which is the promised land of this mission for sure. So things will be really good.
Anyways I will be packing for that and getting ready for this crazy change. But in the mean time the good news is that there is members that live in Maine that will let us use there address for sending packages and what not. Which is definitely awesome. That means mail comes in 3 days for a letter and 6 for a package pretty freaking awesome eh. On a serious note though things this week has been really good. Which should of been a sign of me getting transferred. Every time things start getting good I get moved but oh well it keeps ya humble I guess. Or that is what they say. So humility is my lesson for the next six weeks I guess or that is what I am feeling it will be. But that is alright humility is always a good lesson to learn if not one of the best to learn especially while on your mission. Its not easy to learn here but its good to learn because then you draw closer to your Savior. Which makes you a ten times more effective missionary. So anyways got to go for now. Love ya mom talk to ya later.
Love,
Kyle

letter recieved 1-17-11
Mom,
Yeah I always knew that Nicholas would cave in and end up getting a rubber player (watch). The fact that he would bring it up that the Rubber Player wasn't cool was a dead sign. But yeah the diamond is real in the watch that is why on the back of the watch it says yes its real lol. Elder Randall every time he sees me always says is that a real diamond. Oh get this if he has black and I have white the cool thing is we can be yin and yang or whatever the crap that thing is. But I am actually going to be getting a new Nixon Newton from Elder Beus the cool thing is that it is fake its from China so he is giving me one. I am not sure what color I am getting yet. But it will be sweet.
So what are you guys going down to Thatcher for?
So Matt McClure is extending that is pretty awesome he must be doing good. President Simpson never lets you extend well actually Salt Lake wont let you. To answer your questions the ward is starting to warm up to us more and more. We are actually at the point where people will come up and say hi to us. And some have even started to feed us. So its just crazy the missionaries before us had good intentions but just did it in a bad way. Which caused things to get a little bad. And Elder Smith is an awesome kid I enjoy serving with him. The other day he looked at me and said how is it that you have managed to pick up everything that bothers me in only four weeks and use them to bother me. Super funny kid to bother mostly cause he was the youngest so he gives the reaction that you are looking for. So in all honestly we get a long I don't bother him that much. He is a good missionary and leader he makes it easy to serve with him and helps a lot with the fact I don't always have to wonder what the crap he is doing.
But the work is going OK we went by and visited Megan and when I asked her if I could reteach her. She went dead quiet so I was like oh boy here it comes. No joke I thought she was going to cry and then finally says can I think about it. So hopefully things go well. She came to church which is good mostly because when she was taught in the past she only came to church once. So hopefully she will continue to come to church with John her husband who is a member. The other glimmer of hope is that a member is working with a lady from Peru who just took a copy of the Book Of Mormon so we are trying to get over to her house and hopefully we can teach her. We just need to gain the trust of the member so we have some ideas of going about doing that so things should start working out. But as for knocking its different here in Halifax hard to find people. Its interesting you literally only have a 30 second chance to intrigue them. So we are trying to find what that subject would be that would intrigue the people at the door. Anyways I hope things go well for you guys this week. I love ya have fun

letter recieved 1/10/11
Mom,
Hey whats up? So the pictures of Dave on the scooter made me and Elder Smith die laughing it was so funny to see him on it. I am a little surprised that he bought it so soon, But not really because all he talked about on the phone with me was how much he wanted a scooter like that. So tell him I definitely want a scooter ride.
I am glad you got Beus's letter he is a good kid he actually just sent me an email today he sounds like he is doing really good I am happy for him he is a good kid miss being able to talk to him as much as I use to back in New Glasgow but from what I can tell he seems to be doing really well up in Sydney and he seems to be enjoying training so I think things should continue to go well for him. To answer the question no I didn't lock the door I kept it open so I could talk to him and yeah then came the camera I was like are you kidding me dude(companion sent us a picture of Kyle sittin on the toliet). But yeah he said he was kidding then a few weeks before he sent it to you he called me and was like guess what? My response not much why Elder? He follows with I am totally sending that picture to your mom with Happy Kwanza on it. So then yeah he sent it and now you have it and it looks like you have shown everyone it. So thanks for keeping it secret eh.
So you got Ans a beach cruiser for her birthday eh? That is to funny. Can she drive yet?
But yeah ten months in an area eh?(talkin about and elder in our area) That is a lot longer then I have ever served in an area. I have only made it 7 1/2 months in an area. But I will probably be in the Metro for a total of 20 months by the time I am done with my mission.
Oh by the way Cassie told me she sent you an email asking what my favorite food was, And yes I did almost cry when I walked in and saw chicken enchiladas. It was totally awesome. Then she follows up with hey do you want the left overs.
But lets see this week has been pretty good I can't complain I should say. Nothing to crazy has happened except this guy who is a less active but married to a non member. Who we have been trying to get a hold of and kind of worried about him not being active. Showed up to church on Sunday so when we talked to him he told us that he was interested in becoming more active and really wanted us to come over and work with his wife. So we are pretty excited about that and the fact that he is having her read and pray with him. So it makes things a lot easier for us so lets hope for the best. Then another lady came up in church and told us she gave a Book of Mormon to her friend that rides the bus with her. And is going to work on setting up a time to have her meet with us. So things are starting to look a lot better. We have also been getting to know ward members a lot better. So things here are going really good and were pretty pumped for all the blessings we have been receiving while being here.
Anways love ya tons. Take care enjoy the beach cruisers. Be safe its awesome it finally snowed here. So we had a couple of good snowball fights.
Love ya though,
Elder Davis.
Hey whats up? So the pictures of Dave on the scooter made me and Elder Smith die laughing it was so funny to see him on it. I am a little surprised that he bought it so soon, But not really because all he talked about on the phone with me was how much he wanted a scooter like that. So tell him I definitely want a scooter ride.
I am glad you got Beus's letter he is a good kid he actually just sent me an email today he sounds like he is doing really good I am happy for him he is a good kid miss being able to talk to him as much as I use to back in New Glasgow but from what I can tell he seems to be doing really well up in Sydney and he seems to be enjoying training so I think things should continue to go well for him. To answer the question no I didn't lock the door I kept it open so I could talk to him and yeah then came the camera I was like are you kidding me dude(companion sent us a picture of Kyle sittin on the toliet).
