fav mission pics


Preachin. I miss it.

Montreal.
Gettin dressed for contacting.




Montreal temple....oh wait just kidding.





Djamel wanted to dress up like us for the pic.
A nap is better than lunch on the mission!
Los caballeros
Elder Diaz contacting in the metro system.
One of the coolest families and best mission experiences. This family from Venezuela met the missionaries through English classes and was given a Book of Mormon. His wife and he read the whole thing together in like a week. Then I came in and God already had them convinced, I just had to teach the lessons and ever since they have been 100% faithful in callings and everything. I can't wait to see them one day.



Elder Peterson and I. Brothas in the gospel.
Contacting on the street.
One of my favorite companions of the mission Elder Diaz
On my way home, saying goodbye.
Djameil Medkour and his wife, muslims from Algeria. They fed us like kings. Some of the nicest people I met.

Climbing in SLC




This is a cool waterfall that you can slide off of into a pool of water, but it's a bit rough on your tarts, because it's so cold
This climb is sweet, We're up so high and high on life. The adrenaline is like candy.

you can see the road in this pic.

The route goes right up underneath that overhang, it's pretty sickcore.

It's sad what other people can't enjoy.
Blair on bilet!
Little Cottonwood Canyon is beautiful
Blair and Joshypoo, two of my best friends.



Causey Damn

This is me going crazy at Causey.



This is my bro. Blair thinking about whether three kids, a wife, and a doctorate is really all that important!
"It's worth the risk." He says.
I just don't have much to live for so no reason not to.

zion and random

I rented these sick pants and boots for the narrows. They kept me totally dry for the nine hours that I was waist deep in water. I highly recommend them.

This is a pic of Angel's Landing in Zions.
Joey and I at the top of Angels landing. Joey is standing kind of funny because he doesn't want you to see the wet spot on his shorts because he was so scared.

I think these are called the three patriarchs.
Joey and I getting ready to go into the Narrows.
Super narrow spot in the "narrows."




My nephew Sean
Slot canyons in Zion National Park. These canyons seriously go on for miles.
Joey Orton on the right. He always looks like that!


Look at this sweet frog I caught in Montreal. It's the size of your pinki nail.
The first sight of my grandpa in two years!
The peak in the background is Ben lomand believe it or not.
Another shot of Ben lomand, looks kind of funny from being so high up.
Just a sweet image.
