Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills Ward- Week #24

 Logan and Elder Lundgren taking on a bear


Mom, Man that makes me sad that everyone was home for Christmas!! Except me...You know how i do not like feeling like im out of the loop or anything!! It sucks i think!! But its all good 1 Christmas down 1 more to go then i will be home and that is seriously going to go by a lot faster than i think!! I have almost been out 6 Months and thats crazy how fast that time goes!! Holy Cow time is going by so super fast and its not slowing down so now i just have to accept it and try and make the best of my Mission now!! ðŸ˜‚ I honestly loved loved LOVED talking to you guys yesterday!! It was so awesome to see all your faces and to hear all your voices it was honestly the best!! That has fueled me for the next 5 months until Mothers Day so ill be good until then!! I loved hearing all the Dood and Guy language ive honestly missed that i finally got away from saying dood and guy like every sentence and hearing all of it yesterday really was awesome!! I am really kind of sad and glad at the same time that the skype stopped working!! Because i could not end on skype i probably would have bawled my eyes out!! I hate saying goodbye to everyone it sucks!! But good thing no one was crying while i was skyping i dont want anyone crying!! I wanted everyone to be happy and funny like you all normally are!! And you were so it was so good!! But while we were singing i didnt sing like the whole first verse because i just wanted to listen to my family sing and boy was it amazing!! I loved every second of hearing you guys and hearing Kennahs normal questions that she asks us like everything has changed since she got home it was really good to hear from all of you!! I love you all my family so much and i know that i really took you guys for granted back when i was home!! You dont know how much you miss them until they are gone! That was me! I knew i would miss you guys but it was a lot harder than i thought!! Well it was really amazing!! I feel like i have changed so much since i started! I feel a lot more mature in a way but i still feel like im 13 and that i shouldnt be on a mission let alone 6 months out!! Its crazy!! Well youre all looking so good and happy and i love it!! Love you so much mom I really love the pictures they really make me so gosh dang happy!! give everyone hugs for me let them know i love them!! Love you so much dont forget to send me a newsletter actually!! Youre the best!! Love you so much!! ðŸ˜˜


This kid is so easy to shop for...he gets sooo excited to get the same things every year. (That is a picture of the game, not the real thing.)


Wow the holidays just keep flying by dont they?? Well i had one Christmas already!! One more to go!! ðŸ˜‚ Time keeps flying and i dont like it!! Ive almost been out 6 months in like 2 weeks there goes a quarter of my Mission that i will never get back!! I just have to make it all count starting......... NOW!! No more mistakes no more missed opportunities! No more dumb choices you all are hearing from the new and improved Elder Logan Scott now!! WooHoo!! Bring on 2017 Baby!! My dead year its going to be fun!! So ladies and Gentlemen strap in your seat belts and please keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times!! 2017 is going to be a bumpy but very fun ride!!!! ðŸ˜‚ Anyways highlights and lowlights from my week on Christmas I got to skype call my family!! And oh boy do those 40 Minutes fly by so fast!! Holy cow thats just not right for time to move by so fast!! It was really good to see my family and my siblings that should not look or sound that old!! (mostly Ayden and Jaret!) And to come find out that on my Jeep there has been something wrong on the bumper like someone hit it! But come to find out that Jaret ever since i left on my Mission has been blaming that on me this whole time!! WHAT?!?! Im not even there to defend myself!! Whatever he came clean and told my parents that it was him so we are good and i still have a clean slate!! ðŸ˜‚ That is just the one thing of many that i have learned from my family skype call it was really so much fun but then something happened to the call where we couldnt get video in or out so we ended on the Phone! Which was good because i probably would have bawled my eyeballs out which wouldnt have been a good sight to see!! We sang my most favorite hymn as a family "Sweet Hour of Prayer" and my family can sing so they made my whole day! It was such a cool experience i cant wait until Mothers Day now too! Something else that happened this week is we were supposed to have a baptism on Christmas Eve but the day before we had a baptismal interview set for our investigator Schuyler but he ended up going MIA and we still havent seen him since Friday night! He said he was running to the gas station to go get at soda and we havent seen him at all since!! Our member thats a friend to him still talks to him and it sounds like hes safe and fine he was just scared!! I understand that but he could have just told us that we wont get hurt over it!! ðŸ˜‚ It was just going to be really cool to have a baptism on Christmas Eve but all that happened and you cant force people into the font they still have agency!! Its all in the Lords own will and timing he will get baptized i know he will!! He knows it to be true and hes ready to make that step but its all in the Lords hands now! I know that this is the Lords work we are out doing our Missions but the Lord is guiding us every single day and i love it!! Its cool to see it happen with your own eyes!! Im excited to see what this next year brings and i hope its a real good one!! I love you all so much and i hope you had a Merry Christmas!! I will be seeing/hearing from you all next Year!! Be safe!! Remember who you are and what you stand for!! Make right choices!! (things that my brothers and friends parents have been telling me for a while) ANYWAYS love you all so much!!! See ya next year!!! ðŸ˜Š
Love
ELDER LOGAN SCOTT :)

Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills Ward- Week #23


MERRY CHRISTMAS PEOPLE!!! I cant believe that it is already christmas time!! I felt like christmas was never going to come!! Its this week though!! How Crazy!! My Sister is now home now everyone i repeat Mckennah Scott is now home!! WOOHOO lets have a round of applause for her!! She has just crushed her mission and im so glad that she is now home safely!! So if you havent seen or talked to her you best be doing that now!! You wont regret it!! ðŸ˜Š This week on the other hand has just been completely CRAZY!!! Since i came up here this area has been kind of slower and not a lot of people to teach!! Then  all of a sudden people and referrals are just coming out of no where!! Its a Christmas Miracle!! What truly is a miracle is that a week and a half ago we met this guy named Schuyler!! He is a really good friend to our member friend Nathan Johnson in the Ward!! Nathan told us to come over and teach his friend he is "Solid" So we did and Nathan was right he was so solid he has already had a confirmation that the church is true and wants to get baptized!! He didnt know when though!! We challenged him that night to go pray and for a cool christmas gift to the savior is if he gets baptized on Christmas Eve!! The 24th of December and then he will be confirmed a member on Christmas Day!! He ACCEPTED!!! So We are planning a Baptism on Saturday Night for our good friend Schuyler!! It just so happens that he is the last baptism we need for the year to make the Stake Goal for Baptisms!! What a Freaking miracle!! It was so cool!! So all this week we will be reviewing all the lessons with him and get him dunked on Saturday night!! WOOHOO What a great christmas present!! I love it!! I hope that you all have a Merry Christmas!! and you all get something from Santa this year cause you all have been pretty good in my book!! I love you all and i cant wait to hear from all of you next week!! :) 
Love

ELDER LOGAN SCOTT!! :) 


Elder Lundgren made a bet with Logan that if he finished the cake Logan would have to sing in church


Yay! Logan received our 12 Days of Christmas package...










Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills Ward- Week#22

Elder Lundberg taking a "selfie" to wake Logan up

Hey How are all of you back at home?!?! I am doing just wonderful today is a glorious day! The snow finally started to fall on like tuesday so that was a blessing! We almost went through half of December without any snow but it finally came!! So this is a sad moment for me my good and wonderful Sister, Sister Mckennah Scott comes home tomorrow or i dont know sometime this week i dont know what goes on no one tells me anything! All i know is that she is done on tuesday or wednesday i dont even know that! Wow im good! ðŸ˜‚ ANYWAYS! She comes home this week and it makes me sad that i will not be home with my whole family for christmas!! Which sucks but its ok i can handle it!! As much as i want to be there i know that there is work for me to do up here in good ole Spokane Washington!! So i want to wish you all a Merry Christmas!! ANYWAYS again wow i can get off topic!! A really cool experience happened to me yesterday actually so Paige (the one we just baptized last week) told us to come into subway (cause she works there) to tell us something! We went cause that would be rude if we didnt duh! Anyways she comes up to tell us and she says "you two might think im nuts but i want to go on a mission!" WHAT?!?! that is seriously so awesome!! That was the best news i have ever Received!! She was worried about how to get started and if she will know everything by the time she wants to leave! That just put a thought into my head and i told her this I dont know everything either! Im actually pretty oblivious to the world to be honest! And i just wish that i would have studied more or even payed more attention in school or seminary to get me ready for this mission! While i was kind of beating myself up for all of this a thought came into my mind from the MTC! Elder Bednar came in and said we could ask him any question and he will answer it! So we had a Q & A with Elder Bednar! I dont know if i have ever told you guys that! Anyways i remembered a sister stand up and asked him if she will ever be a good enough missionary... Elder Bednar responded that no one will ever be a good enough missionary or even if anyone will ever be really prepared for a mission but all he asks of us is to do our best! When we do our best the Lord will take care of the rest! Not only did that help Paige with her mission issues it really helped me in the time that i needed comfort and to just know im doing the right things! It was a really cool experience and that has been the big thing that i have learned since being out and this week! Is that all he asks us to do is give him our best and he will do the rest!! That is what i want to leave with all of you is if you think youre doing bad quit being hard on yourself the Lord loves you for you!! Keep trying your best and he will do the rest!! I love all of you and you all mean the world to me!! Thank you for the Prayers and the support youre all amazing and blessings in my life!! Well that has been my report and i will for sure see all of you next week on Logans weekly email!! HAHAHA MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU!!! MUCH LOVE!!

ELDER LOGAN SCOTT :) 


Yeah i knew you would say something about the lanyard!! ðŸ˜‚ i just knew it was coming but its all good its cold up here and im just trying to stay warm!! ðŸ˜‚ but yeah im doing a lot better now its finally snowing up here and it has been snowing non stop for the past 3 days i think!! So yeah we almost made it half way through December without any snow!! Its finally here though!! WOOHOO!! DANG!!! That day came a lot faster than i thought it would!! Thats so crazy!! Seriously time flies by so fast! Its so crazy!! I hit 5 months tomorrow and i cant believe that because i feel like ive only been out a month or so but I have not its been much longer!! Its crazy!! Thats going to be so cool that you get to go pick her up yourself thats awesome she will so love that and it will be so weird that she i home now!! Holy wow thats so crazy it went by a whole lot faster than i thought it would.... But that just goes to show how much time i have left!! I have her mission and that is it!! (well add one more month) but 19 months thats it!! Its going to go by so stinking fast and i dont know if im ready for that!! I have been told my whole life that im going on a mission and that is what im supposed to prepare for in my lifetime up to that point! I lay down in bed at night and look up at the ceiling and just think to myself wow.. im on my mission like this is what i was told about my whole life now im 5 months into it! Wow!! But now what? thats just what i think now! I have come to the conclusion that i need to enjoy it out here and there never will there be a time in my life where i am talking about christ 24-7 so i need to make it count!! Ayden and Jaret will have their calls when i get home too?? Thats so crazy to think about too!! Time is just trucking along and it is not slowing down in the slightest!! Its so cool yesterday Paige (the one that was just barely baptized last week) Told us to come to subway so we did and she said she had something to tell us! We went and she said this "you might think im nuts but i want to go on a mission!" WHAT?!?!? that is so awesome!! The best news i have ever heard in my life!! It was so cool! She went on to say that we made such an impact in her life and she wants to do that for someone else in her life!! I just thought that it was the best compliment that i have ever received and i was honored to be there through it all with her!! It was so cool but shes all mad that she has to wait a year so she can go through the temple and then leave on her Mission!! IT was such a cool experience!! Ayden got in another wreck though?? Holy crap those 2 they are just about as bad as kennah was!! And shes coming home tomorrow!! Well i would just like to say good luck to both of you and buckle up it is going to be a bumpy ride!! ðŸ˜‚ I did get your packages last night though!! All the presents are sitting under our tree that we had in the apartment already and its so cool!! Its not a big one its actually really small and its funny to see all the presents under this tiny tree!! I didnt take a picture of it but ill get it to you next week though!! with our awesome decorations we are making today for P-day you will be impressed!! ðŸ˜‚ Yes so that was my week! And it sounds like you will be busy for the next little while cause you will have kennah home for the 12 days this year which will be so awesome!! Im so excited to skype in like 2 weeks holy man oh man am i excited!! I also love the christmas card!!! I love it so much!! ITs so cool too!! But anyways have an awesome week stay safe and warm out there its cold!! Ill talk to you next week!! love you mom!!!! ðŸ˜˜

Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills Ward- Week#21

Logan making his own sandwich at the local Subway where investigators Paige and Riley work

 Paige and Riley's baptism! Elder Wilcox in the back, Logan, Paige and Riley, Elder Lundberg

Staying in Shiloh Baby!

Well with that being said you already know what is happening with transfers!! Im staying another 6 weeks here in the Shiloh Hills Area!! In a tripanionship!! So my good friend Elder Lundberg and I are both staying as companions and we are getting Elder Morrison (Another Elder we served around down in Pullman) So its going to be pretty fun!! The reason why we are in a tripanionship is because the area is usually split (North and South) But my good friend Elder Wilson went home this last week because he got super sick and we took him to Urgent Care and he was going to be sick in bed (like he couldnt do anything) for like 5 to 10 days!!! Crazy i know!! So they just thought that his Mom was going to be better at taking care of him than us! ðŸ˜‚ That is a very true and smart thing to do! So we will be in a tripanionship until Elder Wilson comes back! But its all good hes coming back to this area and he is still coming home with me so this is just like a mini vacation for him! ðŸ˜‚ So with Elder Wilson going home it just made everything crazy again! We had to move AGAIN up to the other apartment! to go be with Elder Wilcox for his last few days!! Yeah then President called us and asked how we were doing. And we responded with "President this transfer has been way crazy to be honest!!" and president responded with "Yeah its not over.." WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?!?!?! We got that call on Friday!! He said something about it carrying over to this transfer or something i dont know!! All i know is Buckle up people its going to be a bumpy ride! And please keep all your arms legs and feet inside the vehicle at all times!! ðŸ˜‚ So anyways this week with it being way crazy it was still awesome!! We had the awesome opportunity to baptize Paige and Riley on Saturday!! (Well Elder Wilcox got to perform the ordinance) But we still got to baptize them it was such a cool experience!! That was the first baptism that i was apart of that i actually taught! (Besides Meghan down in Pullman who got baptized the Week of Thanksgiving in California though) So i got to be there and witness it!! SO COOL!! Then after the baptism we all went to Red Robin for dinner it was delicious! We had like 4 Sets of missionaries with some investigators there it was really fun! Then Paige and Riley had a request for Elder Lundberg and I... That request was for us to sing Hallelujah (from Shrek) IN RED ROBIN!! With it being their special day we couldnt say no. So we did it!!! I mean thats been a song that Elder Lundberg and i have performed a lot since being companions like on the bus or at FHE's! I can honestly say that in Red Robin was so freaking terrifying!! It was also a great story too im sending the video dont worry! ðŸ˜‚ On Sunday i had the awesome opportunity to Confirm Riley a Member of the church and give her the Holy Ghost on Sunday in Sacrament Meeting!! It was a way cool experience and one that i will never forget for a while! It was such an honor and i am so glad and honored at the same time that she asked me to do that for her! It was so cool!! That was basically my week!! Im sorry im writing such long emails!! I have a lot to say!! OH and guess who found me... (check pictures below to find out) It really made my day! I was not expecting that at all either!! Thanks Zaugg for being awesome!! Oh and i also broke my camera from dropping it on the carpet... Right on the lense... I know im a clutz ok we dont need to dwell on that!! I Love you all and i cant wait to hear from all of you next week!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! 
Love 
ELDER LOGAN SCOTT!! :)

Well im not staying there right now but we now have a full time car and we check that mail like everyday so just send it there!! I will get that package so just dont worry about it ill get it so whenever you want just send it there!! :) Dang i am so sad that everyone is coming home for Christmas except me!! I handled Thanksgiving fine because I knew that Kate and Kennah were both gone! But now they are both coming home in the next week now!! GOSH Dangit! Its all good we all have to go through it and Kennah and Brandon know how I feel at this time of year so its all good!! But i bet you read my group email i am staying in Shiloh Hills though and i will be staying for Christmas with Elder Lundberg its going to be way fun!! Im so pumped!!! We had Paige and Riley get baptized on Saturday and that was way freaking cool im so glad that i was apart of that!! I also got to Confirm Riley on Sunday in sacrament meeting it was really a cool experience and i was so glad and honored that she asked me to do it!! So that has been the update on my area right now nothing else has really been happening either so its all good!! I legit laughed out loud to read what Judge memorials student section did!! Thats really freaking awesome and they ended up losing anyways so thats what they get for sucking!! ðŸ˜‚ Im sure that Ayden will get his chance again!! He is way too good to be sitting the bench for basketball im pumped to hear how he does!! I love going to the lights as a date!! That is really the funnest dates for me i would say!! Because that was the only one that all my friends Trent, Josh, Ryan, And jace would all go to!! And they would always be so much fun!! Temple Square in the winter time is really the coolest thing ever i love it!! Mom its so crazy for me to think that at the end of this transfer i will have passed 6 months already!! Its really crazy and it moves by so fast!!! Holy cow!! Dang Jalen is walking now?!?!? Man he is growing up and im not even there!! Holy crap hes gonna be pretty old when i get home!! ðŸ˜‚ 10 Godparents?!?! thats nuts and that is a whole lot man!!  Jaret probably didnt like that Dad beat him in risk huh?? That looks like a whole lot of fun and those looks like a bunch of faces that i would have kicked their butts at risk though too!! ðŸ˜‚ That is really one of my new favorite pictures!! I save all the pictures you send me onto my USB every week so that i dont miss a thing i really like that thanks mom!! Dang Kennah comes home next week!! Thats so crazy!! And youre going to go pick her up next week too! Well mom i just decided that i do not want that happening to me.. We can come visit my mission a week later or something after i am released as a missionary! I have just been thinking about it and i only have that one moment to come down those escalators in the airport and  i really want to get that moment!! So if its ok can we just come and visit my Mission like a week after i get home or something?? I dont want to still be a Missionary when we come back to visit!! ðŸ˜‚ Thanks mom youre the best!! Pictures coming in a second!! Love you ill talk to you next week!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!! ðŸ˜˜

Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills Ward- Week #20

"Thanks for the blow darts, mom" (hahaha0

Well Hello my good friends and family and some acquaintances, and just those random people on this group email that dont even know me! ðŸ˜‚ Thanksgiving was this week and it was just amazing!! We could not proselyte on thanksgiving day because people wanted to spend time with their families!! Something that i could sadly not do.... ðŸ˜“ but it was still really good we went to the church building and played ball basically all day!! It was great!! That day also we had 2 Dinners to go to! And neither one had turkey! Thanksgiving with no turkey? Im not complaining i just thought it was hilarious and i liked the ham a little more... Yeah ham is really good! Thanksgiving didnt stop there!! Yeah we ended up having thanksgiving dinners the rest of the week!! So yes we still ended up getting our turkey in! Thats a good thing! ðŸ˜‚ Then sunday came around and it was pretty much the weirdest sunday on my mission! We were doing our studies and we get a text from the other Elders at like 8:45 saying we had to be at Ward council at 9... Yeah we live at the bottom of our area and we had 15 Minutes to ride up to the top of our area (Where the church is BTW) so we high tail all the way up where in the mix i lost my tag somehow! Then we got to the church and I straight Wreck on my bike!! In my suit and all i fall right onto my face!! I dont know how it happened but all i know is i just wrecked on my bike!! We then go into ward council where we sat there for 2 minutes then they dismissed us because they didnt need the Elders there anymore... So needless to say that meeting wasnt worth riding all the way up for and even wrecking on my bike!! Gosh dangit! So we went to the other Elders house and i literally got in the shower and said im restarting my day! It was pretty funny and it was so soothing!! ðŸ˜‚ We are also teaching this Part Member family named the Kann's and they are so amazing! The wife is a member and the husband isnt so thats why we are teaching them! But they also canceled on us yesterday which really made that day kind of sour! Because thats the one thing Elder Lundberg and i look forward to all week is a lesson with them! So that was good! Then during church we had a lesson with Rachel (A YSA member that E. Lundberg used to teach) we were talking to her about the gospel of Jesus Christ and it was a really powerful lesson I have just come to a knowledge on what the Atonement has done for me in my life! I know that we all mess up and we arent perfect but Jesus Christ went into that garden for each and every one of us individually and he cares for us and he knows what we are going through! You may have crap days but it may sound silly but Christ knows what your going through and he is always there for you to turn too! Its such an amazing gift that he has done for us but how often do we take it for granted? We shouldnt be doing that! Lets make it count and i know that Christ did it for all of us and he loves every single one of us! I love all of you thanks for all the support you all give me! And wow i wrote a novel im sorry! It was an amazing week and ill hear from all of you again in December!! Love you all!! ðŸ˜Š

ELDER LOGAN SCOTT :) 

Playing basketball with the area elders Thanksgiving Day

Man!!!! I love the snow!! I am so mad that im not there to go snowboarding!! But its all good im fine with missing 2 winters without boarding!! This is actually better so im  not even mad!! I want to really thank you for all the christmas music too!! Really brings in the spirit of christmas!! I love it!! Oh can i ask you a favor so i have a little pocket book of mormon on the top shelf in my closet (or Aydens closet or whatever) but can you please send that to me in the next sports update/Ward newsletter letter or the next package you send that would be awesome thank you so much!! To answer a few of your questions yes it started to snow up here today not a lot but its coming!! And no i didnt get hurt when I wrecked on my bike and the suit is not ruined or anything.... just one of the belt loops kind of ripped off! ðŸ˜“ 

How did you find out about the mass letter Elder Lundgren wrote out? Afton? Because you find out everything from Aft! ðŸ˜‚ But no it didnt have to do with the letter he wrote! ðŸ˜‚  All that is writing me from home is Aft, Taylor, Jace, Aubrey, tell everyone else to write me and ill respond! ðŸ˜‚😊 The work is still going pretty alright. We are just having troubles finding people to teach but its getting there and Riley and Paige are both still getting baptized this Friday!! And one of my investigators from Pullman (Meghan) just got baptized last week which is freaking awesome!! I was so excited to hear that she did! Man it is awesome!! I was one of the missionaries that first started teaching her forever ago in August! And now shes baptized!! It was a pretty cool thing to be a part of!! 

Painter sounds like he is doing awesome coaching at CHS! It already sounds like its better than last year! I think he's right, it did seem like everyone was scared to shoot or even try and score the ball!! But Boston with 33 points thats awesome he really killed it!! And Clearfield losing by 3 IN OVERTIME! to a team ranked 3rd in the state! Progress being made already!! Im excited to see Ayden kill it out there!! I do not like any of the teams going for the College Playoff this year! unless U-Dub makes it then i will cheer for them for sure!! Hopefully they make it though!! 

Holy really?!?!!? Ayden got another ticket?!?!!? Wow they are both worse than Kennah my gosh!!!! You really need to whip them into shape mom!! Thanksgiving amazing!! I love thanksgiving even if i was going to sit around and play mah jong i still would have wrecked and won all the prizes!! But give me another thanksgiving and i will come back and completely wreck!! Thats a warning to all!! ðŸ˜‚ 

Man Jace always helping everyone out with Math hes gonna have to do that for me when i get home for sure!! But yeah he has told me all his job issues and what not but i honestly hope he goes back out! It will be so good for him and trevor to go out! Trevor told me before i left that he wanted to go on a mission so i think trevor will help jace out for sure to get him out there! But yeah its hard being the only one home im sure.. Miss that guy and his friendship for real! Yeah ill be sure to tell you my address if i get transferred (which is highly unlikely) but after this transfer that ive had i wont count anything out!! Thanks for keeping me updated on everything mom youre the best!! I love feeling in the loop!! Ill send you some pictures now!! :)

Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills Ward- Week #19

Birthday pinata we sent to Logan

Back from the dead! With that title you already know crazy things are still happening to me in this Area!! So in the beginning of the week i was in my tripanionship with Elder Wilcox and Elder Wilson and we had a ton of fun but apparently the lord wants me to move again!! And he brought someone back from the dead! Oh yes he did President asks me how would i like to have Elder Lundberg for another few weeks?? You already know i kind of used a lot of slang with President at that moment. It went something like this "DUDE! Id freaking love that!! Heck yes!!" So dont ask us how it happened but we are back at it again being companions again Party Transfer 2.0!! 😂 So all that crazy stuff happened on Saturday i know i told you all to send letters packages and what not to the 912 E. Sitka house but i was a liar then ive repented of my ways so for sure now send all that stuff to the Empire house which the address is 41 E. Empire Apt A Spokane WA 99207! That is where i will hopefully be staying for the duration of the transfer! I say hopefully because you just never know now after all that ive been through this transfer!! Its really been a crazy one!! ðŸ˜‚ But anyways this week was pretty slow for my birthday we went to B-Dubs (Which i freaking love) and one of our investigators Paige paid for our dinner which was so awesome of her!! So that happened and i had my first experience of skinning a deer which was awesome and i got to hold a heart and get my hands pretty bloody it was a great experience for sure!! Other than that my week was pretty slow and nothing else really happened except moving again!! So yep thats my week Love you all and im so happy to hear from all of you next week!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! (this week on thursday ðŸ˜‚) 
ELDER LOGAN SCOTT :) 




MOM!! my birthday was pretty awesome!! Its weird that i am 19... I shouldnt be that old!! And your instagram post kind of brought a tear to my eye... It was the best thing ever I loved reading it though but Birthdays out on the mission are for sure different and it was pretty weird but it was so awesome!! AHHHH Christmas time!! I really love this time of year honestly its so amazing I just love it so much and Kennah gets to be home for it! Man that really was so fast!! Im so excited to see her when shes at home!! Thats what Im saying it is crazy that football is over already and Ayden is starting basketball man the year is really flying by! Its so weird to think that im knocking on 5 months already and its the last full week of November! Holy cow! Time flies!! Well Jaret honestly deserves JV MVP if hes not going to be the Varsity starter then he deserves some sort of MVP! Those dang kids!! Getting Tickets and Wrecks left and right thats crazy!! Expensive kids for sure!! I never got any of those cause im a freaking bomb driver mom!! Freaking Utes choking this year too!! Gosh dangit! I cant believe they missed out on the Pac 12 Championship again and that Washington State is in the conversation for that holy no way!! I was wondering when he was going to get home and i thought november and i was correct so score one for Logan!! ðŸ˜‚ Dang everything is changing up there thats nuts!! Everyone is moving in and out im not going to know anyone when i get home!! ðŸ˜‚ I LOVE THANKSGIVING!! We are going to a members house for it and he says we are really going to be eating real good for dinner he told us what we are having and im seriously excited!!

Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills Ward- Week #18

Logan's new home where he is serving in a Tripanionship

Hello ladies and gentlemen of all types (I got you josh) but this week has been kind of crazy a lot has happened in a freaking week!! It started as a normal week! Until... that dreaded wednesday night! (i think it was wednesday night) ANYWAYS!! We were chillin doing our nightly planning and about to go to bed when all of a sudden President calls us and tells me that my companion is being ET'd (emergency Transferred) up to another area because another missionary went home for some medical reason. He got transferred and i am staying with the other Elders that were in the area! Because you know we have 2 sets of missionaries in the area! So now im in a tripanionship with Elders Wilcox and Wilson! Its way freaking fun!! We get distracted a lot but we get a lot of work done too at the same time!! We have 2 girls on date now their names are Riley and Paige! They are my age and they work at subway so they are on date for December 3rd and its going to be the first baptism i have ever been a part of! Im way pumped!!!! So we are teaching a lot of people and we are just having a great time while doing it! Tripanionships are really a lot more fun than just normal companionships in my opinion to be honest!! Everyone its christmas time around the area too!! And im so freaking excited!! Well everyone remember the true meaning of CHRISTmas and im excited to see what you all send me for christmas...HAHAHAHAHAA IM SO KIDDING BY THE WAY!! Well  that has been my crazy week and I'm glad ill be hearing from all of you next week!! Love you all and PS I dont feel like i should be turning 19 holy cow im still 13 and should not be on a mission!! ANYWAYS i love all of you and thank you for your support for me!! Love YOU!! :) 
ELDER SCOTT :)

Street sign in honor of his dad...


 Wilcox says hi... and that he loves you and you did a great job at raising a son! 😂😂 I KNOW!!! I TURN 19 this week thats freaking crazy!!!! I dont feel like i should be turning 19! Its crazy to me!! So Mom a lot of crazy stuff has been happening!! I told you about my companion last week, and so after all that hard time of not doing a whole lot (because he was kind of lazy and didnt want to do a whole lot) i was just done with it and sat him down and basically said that i was sick and tired of feeling like i wasnt doing anything and not feeling like an effective missionary! So I decided to take charge of the companionship - i was really relying on him to teach me because i was new to the area I didnt know what i was doing and I didnt even know how to serve in a family ward!! Yeah so i kind of took over the companionship and we started doing a lot of work the next 2 days! But this is where it gets crazy! So i want to say it was wednesday night we got a call from president saying that my companion was being Emergency Transferred up to another Area! and I was being moved into a tripanionship with the other Elders in the Area (Elders Wilcox and Wilson) yeah im freaking pumped,  its seriously so much fun! We get a lot of work done while we are together too Man I'm freaking lucky!! i was trying my best to have a good attitude and stay positive but it was just really hard and it was taking a toll on me for real!! But its all good now im perfectly fine and happy!! ðŸ˜‚My new address for the rest of the transfer is 912 E Sitka A303 Spokane WA 99208! So if you already sent the package and stuff i can easily go back to the other house and grab it so its no big deal! I was just giving you that address if you wanted to send me anything for the next 2 weeks or so! ðŸ˜‚ AHHHHH Christmas time!! I freaking love christmas!! So the thing about the music you sent me i cant play it unless it gets onto my Ipod via Itunes so it took a while but i finally found a member that has an itunes account and was nice enough to do that for me!! So i will be rocking out to my chirstmas music all the rest of my mission!!! WOOHOO Im so excited for the package and Elder Wilcox, Wilson and i were talking that we are going to B-Dubs on my birthday so im not even mad about that!! ðŸ˜‚ Dang its basketball season already? I knew Ayden would make it but its crazy that all those other guys didnt make it though!! That really surprised me!!! WHAT?!?!!?!!? first sister AP to the President?!?!!? Thats an on going joke in my Mission!! Thats seriously awesome holy cow!!! man thats crazy!! I could totally see her being an AP though even though she was a sister thats freaking awesome!! Man if there ever was going to be a sister AP it was going to be Kennah!! ðŸ˜‚ But yeah thats the thing we are really lucky as a family I notice that more and more since ive been out on how blessed i have been i really have!! I love it so much and im so glad that i have grown up in the awesome family that i have!!  im glad to hear youre all doing good down there that really helps me to hear that!! and Ayden and Jaret got tickets before me!! SUCKERS!! ðŸ˜‚😂 And if you guys are going to come out here and pick me up that means that Elder Wilson and I have to replan what we have planned for after our missions, but im so excited to do that!! You have no idea!! thats awesome to hear that Kennahs and Hannahs homecomings will be on the same day thats so crazy man i want to be there for it so bad!! But Im glad to hear things back at home its awesome!! Love you mom talk to you next week!!

Billings family sealing


Man Mom I freaking love all your pictures that you send to me!! since i got the USB Ive been saving all the pictures you send me onto it because its freaking huge and i have a lot of space on it!! ðŸ˜‚ But hey when you send my birthday package can you send me the October and November Fast sunday newsletters from our ward? I really love reading those and seeing how everyone is doing! Just think like every fast sunday when the newsletter comes you should probs just send it to me because i kind of want one.. I dont like feeling out of the loop! ðŸ˜‚ REALLY?!?!?! Her last transfer starts today?? Dang that is so crazy!!! Thats freaking cool that you are picking her up from Mississippi though!! Thats awesome!! Is that going to happen to me?? Or you dont even know yet? Man mom im knocking on 4 months!! by the time kennah gets home ill have basically her mission left!! Man time really does fly by! Dang my mission is going to go by a lot faster than i thought!! That kind of scares me... But anyways yeah i dont know what it is with all those Lee girls liking them Scotts ðŸ˜‚ that is pretty funny!! But yeah Taylor has been telling me about this wedding for a while now and its about time it finally happened!! ðŸ˜‚ MAN!! I freaking love Flag Football Season!!! That is seriously the one thing that i miss about this time of the year!! Well besides all the pumpkin stuff that everyone gives me but flag football is a very close 2nd though!! Do a lot of people still show up for that? What?!?!? Ayden didnt go?? I thought he did!! Dang that is a bummer!! He still has next year though!! Man them ladies were missing out on one hunk of a man!! ðŸ˜‚ Really Nick is home for good now? Dangit! I was really excited for him to go back out and finish through .. Dang poor Nick love that kid though and i really love that family so much! Man, everyone is on their way home now! Woohoo!! Yeah i know this is seriously my favorite time of the year its so awesome i love it so much!! But mom this last week i have kind of struggled. Its been really hard to be honest. Well we havent been teaching like anyone since i got here and finding people is seriously so freaking hard! And it doesnt help that my companion is really kind of quiet like no other!! Like its seriously pretty freaking hard and it really took a toll on me last week! Man but I just know that im blessed for being out here and i know that the Lord knows what im going through and he wont leave me! He will always be with me and i think that is just amazing and ive really learned that this transfer so far and yeah Life isnt going to stop throwing haymakers at us! ðŸ˜‚ But dont worry Im good and all is well i just have to have a better attitude about it!! Thanks for all of your pics mom they really made my day and now they are all on my USB!! Dont forget to send me those newsletters!! ðŸ˜˜ Love you so much!! Talk to you next week!! I feel your prayers every day and it really does help!! I pray for all of you at home every night and its awesome love you mom!!

Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills Ward- Week #16


 This is Logan's sad face after he realized he somehow lost ALL his pictures off his memory card :|


HEY WHATS UP HELLO EVERYONE BACK AT HOME!! Thank you everyone for reading this on your mobile device or your computer which ever works better for you!! ðŸ˜‚ Shiloh HIlls is a pretty awesome ward!! I really do love it down here? or up here? or in here? I dont know take it how you want! hahah but anywho its been a pretty good week! a lot of getting used to! Now i actually have to go find people to teach they wont just be chillin on a bus waiting to get off or just walking campus or any of that easy stuff now its real finding stuff now! So thats been something to get used to! Another thing is that not being in the YSA anymore i actually get fed!! WOOHOO!! We basically had a dinner every night this last week and it was pretty awesome!! Then on Wednesday i think it was Elder Dastrup and i were walking to go visit a potential investigator named Mitch but when we got there Mitch was no longer living there! We met the guy and his name is Chance! He was pretty interested in what our message had to say so he invited us in and to make a long story short we found a new investigator from it!! WOOHOO!! Anyways i thought that it was way awesome! and that my first week here was a blast! A lot more biking though! But im still loving it! Something that has dawned on me today as im writing this that its halloween tonight! HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!! but i cant trick or treat! but that also means that it November! Im about to hit 4 months thats crazy! I do not feel like i have been gone that long!! that also means that im turning 19 this month!! I also do not feel like i should be 19! I feel like i should be 13 or 14 not on a mission though for sure! so its pretty crazy!! But Elder Dastrup and i get along pretty well! We quote a lot of Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre! Its really funny!! and he is also pretty quiet while Elder Lundberg was the complete opposite! So thats something that i am trying to get used too! Its still going to be a really fun transfer!! Im excited to see what it has in store for me!! Oh and yesterday Elder Wilson and I (being the new missionaries in the Area) had to give a talk in sacrament!! It was supposed to be on one of the missionary discussions and mine was on the Plan of Salvation! It just strengthens my testimony to know that God does not forget about us and that he has a plan for us! That he also knows what we are going through and that he will not let us go through things by ourselves! Times might get rough but our savior knows what we are going through! So whenever we can we should turn to the Lord for help and guidance! Thats my testimony! I love being a Missionary its so hard sometimes but really rewarding its all worth it!! I love it I love all of you and I just want to give one last shout out to Mike Zaugg for making my whole Mission by finding me! Via telephone!! Youre Awesome Mike ill be sure to give you a nice pat on the back when i get home!! Talk to you all next week!! :)

Logan's new home


Dear Mom,

DANG!!!! It looks like you all had a butt load of fun this past week man!!!! This is always my favorite time of the year!! I love this time for real!! All the pumpkin pie that you all would give me because i love it a lot!! Football! Man its just a great time to be alive for sure!! Hey its already November mom! Im knocking on 4 months and i cant believe i have been out that long!! It really doesnt feel that long!! And i turn 19 this month too!! I honestly dont feel like i should be turning 19 either! I feel like i should still be 13 or 14 and not on a mission either its so crazy!! YESSSS!! Zaugg did get ahold of me!! It was so hilarious!! It wasnt even our phone that he called! So my area Shiloh Hills is split into 2 so we have another set of Elders here so Elder Dastrup and I are in Shiloh B (which is the south part of the area) and Elders Wilcox and Wilson are Shiloh A (which is the north part duh) and he called Shiloh A's number!! Luckily we were all at a dinner appointment when he called i heard Elder Wilcox talking to someone on speaker and i just hear is there an Elder Scott there? Elder Wilcox said yes there is but he is not my companion. And he says back can i talk to him? *Elder Wilcox hands me the phone. I say Hello this is Elder Scott. Zaugg says back this is Elder Logan Scott right? At this point im terrified because i have no clue who this is and how someone knows my first name out here!! ðŸ˜‚ Anyways i say yes this is who is this? He says back its just me Mike Zaugg! I basically lose it!! I was not expecting to get a call period let alone a call from Zaugg!! It was so awesome though to hear his voice or a voice from someone at home! He wanted to see if we wanted some dinner but we just got out from eating dinner so we had to decline sadly ðŸ˜– Still it was so freaking crazy mom!! I loved every second of it talking to him!! ðŸ˜‚ Anyways Elder Dastrup and I get along pretty great hes pretty funny and we quote a lot of Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre its pretty funny!! He is also pretty quiet and Elder Lundberg was the complete opposite so that is something that i am for sure getting used too!! He is still way funny and cool ill send a pic over in a second! He has also been out for almost a year now! He will hit his year mark in December so pretty close!! So Elder Wilson you already know him he served around me last transfer too he was in my district all 3 of my transfers so far he was one of the ones in Colfax so we also came out together too so we legit have not separated out whole missions!! ðŸ˜‚ Elder Wilcox though he is really funny!! I like him a lot! hes a really good friend and we see the other Elders like every single day and its so funny everytime we are with them! Its just a party up here and its really a nice ward!! Yesterday Elder Wilson and I (since we are the newbies in the ward) had to give a talk in sacrament!! It was on one of the Missionary Discussions that we teach people!! So mine was on the Plan of Salvation and Elder Wilsons was on the Gospel of Jesus Christ! The bishopric wanted the other 2 lessons to be taught because everyone always hears about the Restoration! So it went really well and before we talked we stood up on the stand and sang with the Ward Choir! It was so funny we werent planning on doing it before but we decided right when they were lining up! It was so funny!! So yeah that was my week basically!! I miss having all this Fall fun with you my family but its all good youre all missing out on the real logan scott at your parties!! ðŸ˜‚ But with the package i got a call from the mission office saying that it has come in but i have yet to get it so im getting it in the next day or so hopefully!! Thank you so much mom youre the freaking best i love you so much!! Pics are coming in a sec!! :)

Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills Ward - Week #15




Logan and Elder Lundberg on top of their roof overlooking Washington State's campus


Ill give you all 3 guesses on what this email will be about! But the first 2 dont count... ðŸ˜‚ yes Transfers has come and gone again here in good ole Pullman! But all good things must come to an end... Yes i will be leaving Pullman this transfer i am going up to the Spokane area the stake is called the Mountain Spokane Stake in the Shiloh Hills Ward! I am really excited actually!! So Elder Lundberg tells me (since he has served up around that area) that it is really ghetto!! So for those of you who know me really really well know that i wanted to go to the ghetto for my mission (because D Scott @ Large served his mission in the ghetto for sure in Detroit) so i wanted that and now im getting it and im so excited!!!! So i will let you all know what my new address is when i find out for myself!! ðŸ˜‚ My week this week was pretty awesome!! The highlight of my week though happened on saturday!! I have another story to tell after this one too though! ðŸ˜‚ So LDSSA (LDS Student Association) on campus had a leadership training and Elder and Sister Jones (Senior Missionaries in the area) invited Elder Lundberg and i to come because they thought it would be good to have the Elders from the ward to be there with the members and developing trust! We ended up going to the ropes course on campus to do this trust thingy and it was seriously so much fun!! So Worth it for sure!! 



Elder Scott and Elder Lundberg
YSA Elders with Rob, ward mission leader


Zach (AKA McZacherson), member of YSA ward. Good friend of Wogie


another really funny story that happened this week so we went on exchanges with Colfax so Elder Francis came over and we served in the YSA this last wednesday! So we were riding the bus and there was a cement truck blocking the road on where the bus was supposed to go! The bus driver yelled back and said they didnt want him to go the normal route and to go back the way he came. So we were fine with it but he also yelled back that i need someone to back me! So Elder Francis and I jump up and say we will back you!! So the moral of the story is that we can use backing up someone not just for missionaries but we can use it in real life!! So the moral of the story is that backing is helpful in your everyday life!! it was really funny though an experience that i will never forget!! So that has been my week hopefully you all get a kick out of this email thats kind of my goal here!! but its been real and its been fun but it hasnt been real fun! PEACE SEE YA IN 2!!! 
ELDER LOGAN SCOTT!! :) 


Logan and his District

Yep so really it is a really really REALLY long story! ðŸ˜‚ But first off i want to start off with what i want to tell you first then i will send a separate email!! ðŸ˜‚ But yes i am indeed getting transferred i texted the other Elders in the Area right now to see if there is an address for the house or apartment that i will be going to so i will get that to you shortly!! 😂 I am being transferred up to the Spokane area into a ward that is called the Shiloh Hills ward! and Elder Lundberg tells me (since he has served up there) that it is really ghetto!! Im so excited mom!! Ive wanted ghetto in my mission this whole time and now im going to get it! man im excited!! 😂 But i will tell you an address later! NO i had no clue that Ayden was Jarets back up QB for the season thats so freaking awesome and hilarious at the same time!! Heck yeah im glad that both JV and Varsity ended with a win thats good to hear! Improvement from last season for sure!! They Tied my Junior season too with 2 wins! I did the math and my high school football record is 5-37!! that is downright terrible!! ðŸ˜‚ but its something funny to think about though! But yeah i was planning on sending off the "tie that binds" binder off to Trenton 2 weeks ago like i wrote the letter and everything but i forgot to send it off these last 2 weeks so im sending it off to him today!! Yes i have had a ton of fun with that binder!! Its so weird to think that its that time already to send it off to the next!! time flies by so fast!! But this week was really so much fun!! we had an LDSSA (LDS Students Association) Leadership training at a ropes course! So Elder and Sister Jones (Senior Missionaries in this area) invited Elder Lundberg and i to come because it  would be really good to get the missionaries involved with the LDSSA so we went and it was so much fun i will show you some pictures of them later! A really funny story that happened this week so we went on exchanges with Colfax so Elder Francis came over and we served in the YSA this last wednesday! So we were riding the bus and there was a cement truck blocking the road on where the bus was supposed to go! The bus driver yelled back and said they didnt want him to go the normal route and to go back the way he came. So we were fine with it but he also yelled back that i need someone to back me! So Elder Francis and I jump up and say we will back you!! So the moral of the story is that we can use backing up someone not just for missionaries but we can use it in real life!! It was hilarious that i actually had to back someone that wasnt another missionary!! Man it was just a funny week!! So im sad to be leaving this area just right before thanksgiving and my birthday too but its all good the lord needs me up there so that is where ill go!! But i will Tell you this aubrey story in a second!! but that is my week love ya mom thanks for all that you do!! :) Hey actually just send the package to the mission office today and use priority mail. It will get to me if its priority mail from the mission office but if its not im going to have to wait another 2 weeks for this package because i dont think i will get the address until next week! So thanks for everything mom you are seriously the best!! LOve you so much have an awesome week!! :)

Pullman, WA- Week #14


Work to do

This week wasnt too eventful it was actually pretty boring!! I dont have a lot to report on this week except that our on date that was supposed to be baptized on October 15th didnt happen because he didnt feel like he was rushing into anything! But hes still so solid!! Hes going to get baptized whether im here or not so im excited to see what happens with him hes so sick! Love that guy his name is Devin and hes basically the best!! but yeah thats my week sorry it was a pretty boring email!! I know I disappointed some of you!! ðŸ˜‚ But i got some sick pics though!! ðŸ˜‚

Comp study

Dang you dropped a pretty big bomb on me right there with Joe! I wouldnt have ever seen that one coming! That is seriously so gosh dang sad! I almost started tearing up when i was reading those stories about Toshia and Joe! Man it was seriously a rough week for the people back at home! How are the Giacalone's handling it, are they ok? Dang thats seriously crazy!! Especially for Nick because the last time he saw his dad was before he went back out on his mission! Thats crazy my mind is seriously blown and i'm speechless right now! But all the songs that I sent you are all approved by the mission! A lot of the missionaries out here have those songs and so they are approved, we are good mom! hahah 

The twins really do go to Asylum every single year!! We all went last year! by we i mean I went with Aubrey, Jax and Aft came and so did Trent and Julia! Ayden and Jaret came too and brought their dates or whatever! ðŸ˜‚ I remember hating that place like no other to be honest!! It wasnt even fun mom it was the down right terrifying!! ðŸ˜‚ But with the baptism thing yeah the guy we were planning on baptizing that day fell off date. He didnt want to feel like he was rushing into anything so he felt like October 15th was too fast! So we will see when he gets back on date but i dont worry about him! hes super solid and hes going to get baptized whether im here or not! ðŸ˜‚ Yeah Elder Lundberg and I hope that we will both stay another transfer here together we have way too much fun so we will see what happens on Sunday!! ðŸ˜‚ Other than that this week wasnt to eventful nothing else really happened so that was my week and i know that jaret is loving his bus thats freaking awesome!! Love ya mom thank you for sending all that stuff to me youre honestly the best!! ðŸ˜˜ Dont worry i will send some pictures this week!! :)
