Cooked in the "COUVE"

  ALARM Clock ⏰️ Elder Reed Helm Reed Helm <reed.helm@missionary.org> Sat, Aug 31, 8:21 AM (3 days ago) How is it going yall, man have these two weeks been insane. Nothing happened at home mtc so we just gonna skip that. Started the mtc and so far so good. I'm feeling pumped it's been super chill here and my comp is a stud. I have seen so many people I know so that's super nice to see all them. My district is full of the best elders and sisters ever. Had the opportunity to go to the Payson temple which was awesome. Now for the alarm clock yall need a little background first. So we got moved into residency that already had 4 other elders they all speak Spanish and they are super interesting so it was a mess and lowkey sucked cause it felt like i was moving a dumpster fire. Anyway this stupid alarm clock this elder has  lights up like its the 4th of July. He didn't tell us it did and apparently they all wake up earlier then 6:30 so me and elder church are sleeping a...

  Wednesday August 28th 2024 I asked Reed what he wanted to do with his last day at home? His first response was, "Go on a run with you." It made me melt. Especially because Reed is WAY faster than I am, but the fact that he wanted to go on a run together made me SO HAPPY, and feel special. So we went on a run, me, Reed, and of course Steve couldn't be left behind. The trio did a nice jog around the area. It was a beautiful day and a nice way to spend time together.  Afterwards, we needed to finish packing, kinda a big deal. We accomplished that, got in a haircut, and then it was time to go get the kiddos from school so we could enjoy lunch together as a family. Reed chose Black Bear Diner, knowing it was a pretty solid place to satisfy all. We ate our grub and I of course attempted to get some pics. Not the greatest spot but I didn't want it to pass us by. We then headed to the MTC in Provo. We were a few minutes early, So we decided to loop the neighborhood a few ti...

 August 19th-28th 2024 HOME MTC Elder Reed started the morning off a bit slow...I went downstairs. Dark and quiet as can be. My  thought...well maybe we aren't doing this? Reed was still sound asleep. He assured me all was well and that he doesn't have any classes until later. So I went on my way. Eventually he surfaced, and then found himself tucked away in Paige's room (grandma was still in town) for his first day via zoom "Home MTC"- He met his companion Elder Church from Parowan Utah, a real cowboy. He met his district and then he did a lot of learning and studying.  His schedule was a lot different than Noah's was. Reed's MTC classes didn't start until around 12:30 and then he wouldn't be done for the day until 9 at night. So we didn't see a whole lot of him. We'd try and hear the latest, inquire about what he was learning, and of course ask lots of questions, but if you know Reed..."everything's CHILL" easy going, few wo...
