April 18th - April 25th


Monday - We had district P-Day at Zions Camp in Raymond New Hampshire! Way cool!! We played basketball and we played soccer, so much fun! After we all where sweaty and gross we went to the waterfront and hung out a little more, took some wild pics (See above) and headed home. After we got home we showered and went to the Larsens for dinner, their family is way cool! I love them! So much love, so much energy! Their son Tanner is disabled and he's a crack up! When we where leaving, he was saying bye and I told Brother Larsen he should teach him to say "bye Felicia" and when I said that, he said it!!! It was way funny!! And that's what he says from now on, we said one last goodbye to him just to make sure and in the distance you hear "bye fewecia!!!" Lol awesome day!


Tuesday - We woke up, did some studies and we went to take a nap that went... 2 hours... Bad move, but worth because we got no sleep last night.. We then got up and went to get an oil change in our car. They where full so we scheduled a time for tomorrow. After, I studied some more Spanish out of a review text book and I got a headache for about an hour. After that we went to the Duckie pond and we where able to meet a guy named Bill. He thought we where cops haha but we then introduced family history and he was all for it. We gave him a link and our number and we where on our way. When we returned home we grabbed our iPads and headed to the Piersons and had a wonderful dinner and a wonderful spiritual thought. Love that family, they love humor. This mission loves dry humor haha everyone has it, you can't escape it! Brother Pierson served his mission in Madrid Spain and said he will assist me in learning spanish. He's letting me borrow a Spanish book that has all the Spanish verbs and the conjugations of the verbs. Way cool!! After that, we went to the church to meet and talk with bishop Samuelson. It went great! He's super happy we are here, he's super happy we took the initiative and set a time to talk to him. He's excited to work with us, where excited to be here. We are gonna do great!


Wednesday -Today we had a great district meeting! It was us, the Derry Elders and Elder and Sister Simpson! Nice and cozy! It was so fun! After district meeting while we were helping prepare lunch, the church phone rings.. That never rings... As it rang I answered and a guy said "I'm looking for Elder Bundy.." So I gave him the phone and we found out his uncle was in Derry! And he's serving in Derry!! It was funny after we told him he can't see him lol he just kinda looked sad on the table, but I'm sure he went and saw him anyways! After lunch, We took a couple pictures in the sun (see above) and then we went to get the oil changed. It took about an hour, holy smokes, haha in Portsmouth, which wasn't bad. Little trip down memory lane! I'll always love coming back to Portsmouth, I'm definitely gonna visit again! We where driving back to Exeter and we drove past this c6 corvette zr1 and the license plate says "worth-it" and Elder Peterson and I died laughing!! Haha went the to see some people who where very nice and we also stopped by and talked to sister Larsen because we where down the street from her, love her! Afterwords we went back to the apartment and I did some Spanish studying. Today was easier, I've been doing textbook exercises and learning grammar and vocabulary. It's going great! After about 30 min, we went to the church for a meeting with the Elders Quorum Presidency and addressed concerns and how we can help. After that I completed my hour of studies. It is now 10:21pm est and I am going to bed. It's been a busy busy day! Love these days!


Thursday - First thing in the morning we went to Exeter high school because we had a comparative religions class and it was a way cool seminar! High school kids asked great questions! We talked pretty much about the whole religion in about 2 hours. It was pretty quick, subject touched, people engaged and it was way cool. Couple girls stayed after class and talked to us a little more about questions they had about families and stuff like that. We left a box full of stuff and left our number with them and hopefully, something will happen! Everyone that came gave great input and followed the spirit, it was pretty cool and I wish I could do that again because I didn't say much :/ because it was so fast paced, I couldn't keep up fast enough. It was like a 0-60-100-60-0 mph rollout. It picked up quick and stopped quick, pretty cool! But it was a load of fun. Afterwards we came home and had some lunch. Then after we both passed out because of the heat, we woke up just in time to make it to Elder Petersons dentist appointment. While I was there I was reading the story about Nephi going back with his brothers to Jerusalem to try and get the brass plates from Laban in.. SPANISH!! I couldn't believe how much I actually understood! It may be because I know the story, but I was picking out words and it was actually pretty awesome! I shared the story with a little girl named Ashley. She was about 6 years old and she asked what I was reading and I told her the story and she was like "whoa!" Unfortunately, I had no other Books of Mormon so I couldn't give her one :/ but that's okay! I showed her mom how she can! Afterwards we came back home and did some studies then had dinner at the samuelsons! Way awesome family! They love us! They are a big, loud and energetic family! Just like mine! Haha she made an awesome shepards pie! I had 2 big heaps because I was hungry! Haha after that we went to the church and played volleyball with some awesome people! At first, it was kinda awkward because it was only a few of us but then more people showed up and we got crazy! Trash talking and taunting and having a blast! After that we where racing to get home because we where already late getting home.. Oops! Worth it!! Haha



Friday - Friday we has some service at the food pantry and we where able to get a tour and a history lesson about what they do, why and how. Pretty sweet! Later we came come and made some cookies and we went to the ward bake sale! That was way cool seeing a lot of people! We talked, had a great dinner and got to meet some more people! Sister Idell is my "ward mom" because she acts like my mom haha she asked if we wanted the extra hot dogs and I was like "ehh I don't know, I think we're good" "Elder Vogel, are you sure" "I think?" "You're taking them" "okay haha!" She's so awesome! The love of this ward is incredible, they love having us here! They joke, harass and they know we are here to help and they use us haha. We also saw Dylan! So happy to see that dude! He came for the dinner and we were able to talk for a few min. Later, him and Chase left, but that's okay! We helped out in the kitchen with Sister Idell, Sister Soucy and Kaylee, it was way fun joking around with them! Outside was President Soucy and Brother Gish on the bbq and we helped them out, told some stories and then later, we went to hang with the young men for a while. They where playing rugby, showing us their knives and asking us to tell camping stories haha it was a wonderful night, great way to end the day! Looking forward to more ward activities!!


Saturday - We woke up and hit the road to Derry for a day exchange! We started with some service at the Derry ward Building. We went to get food at five guys and then we went to orange leaf, its kinda like Menchies! It's way good!! Then we went to a members house to do some service for a few hours, elder Bundy and I went to Walmart and got a few things and then we headed home. I did some Spanish and waited around for Elders Peterson and Reed later for dinner. After a dinner and telling mission and home stories, we went home, not much today but at the same time, it was a full day!



Sunday - So as I was getting ready this morning, I remembered that I forgot my badge in Derry.. That has my missionary handbook, pocket badge, scriptures, notebooks and some other little things that I need. So, we will see how today will go without half my stuff haha. Good thing I have my iPad still.. Church was great, it was based on trek because that is coming up soon. I loved the testimonies shared from brother Cavarretta and the Idells. I love the classes and the inspiration given to these people today. Sunday church was awesome. Afterwords we came home and did a few things, like eat and sleep for a min, then we went to the church to see brother Larsen for a few then we went to the Gish's for a dinner. Afterwords we went to the Sargents, they are super awesome! They live in a cozy barn, it's way way cool! We shared the mission vision with them and they seemed to love it! After that, we went home.



Awesome week, it flew by fast! But we got so much done. We were in meeting after meeting, seeing lots of people and being on our feet all day! It was a great success! As always it could have been a better week, but that's why we always try harder, and we never have to do it alone!
love, Elder Vogel

April 11th - April 18th

Hola mis amigos y familia!


Monday - we had such a relaxing and chill day today. We visited some stores and slept a lot.. It was nice :D we even got to watch meet the Mormons and a few other face to face broadcasts. I learned that Lindsey sterling served a mission in the New York, New York north mission, pretty rad!


Tuesday - raining.. Messy.. Nasty.. Butt!! We had a good day! We went to Matt's and talked about sacrament and then we went to have a great dinner with brother Horrock, he's super funny! He served his mission in Australia, he has great stories! He's a really intelligent person and he knows his stuff really well! We all together made burgers and nachos and potatoes for dinner, way fun, way full of spirit. We shared the "Flocks of Gold" video and talked about how the little blessings can come together into a big blessing and not to discount the small ones because that's where everything starts, small and simple. Love him! Can't wait to see him more.


Wednesday - we had a good day, we went street contacting today and we where able to talk to a few people at the Duckie pond and get to know them a little bit, that was way cool. After that, we where doing stuff at the apartment and then we went to the church for mutual and talked to some adults and taught the deacons about the priesthood and the sacrament and their role as a priesthood holder. Pretty awesome! I guess the Utah Rugby Team is going to the JSM (Joseph Smith Memorial) to play and everyone's all hyped about that, way cool their coming here tho! After that we set some dinner appointments and came home and had dinner and did the nightly planning. While we where at the church, we where talking to Brother Pierson and giving him encouragement because there are some difficult deacons and he's exercising his patience haha, we really felt the spirit with him. He's super grateful for us being there, the whole ward is grateful haha

Thursday - Today we had zone interviews! We talked a lot about prayer and we discussed how to make prayers more meaningful. We also discussed more basics like knowing for ourselves that we are children of God! We also talked about obedience, humility and a hard one..... Sarcasm... Oh boy haha we discussed how we can still have fun, but do it professionally, which will be hard. Also, I GET TO OFFICIALLY LEARN SPANISH!!!! I'm super stoked!! I so happy that I was able to be trusted to do that, I asked and President Stoker said I was the first missionary he's met that asked to learn a new language and he will keep up with my progress and determine when I'm ready to go to the Spanish branch in Lawrence! Way excited!!! I'm going to need everyone's support and prayers that I can learn this, tips and help suggestions are all welcome and we will see what happens later on in my mission! I can't wait!! Soy muy agradecido!! Also, Elder Rasband of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles is coming to speak at our mission!!! Way cool!! Elder Chase (who is my second oldest brother because he was Elder Paces second trainee) is Elder Rasband's grandson!! I can't wait to see him and shake his hand and officially meet a member of the Twelve!!! We then went down to Hampton beach, where, it was the ghetto.. But we saw the nice, open coast and were able to drive around and plan out areas to park and walk around for later in the future. After that we came home for the night.


Friday - Today we did some service at the food pantry and we where able to talk to a few people and see how they are doing. We also went less active hunting in the parts of our area where we really can get to because we have the miles to do so, so we did it. haha We then came home and studies Spanish a little more and where able to make some calls and set appointments. Today during less active hunting we saw this kid who looked about 10-12, and we drive by him laughing so hard because why? He was standing outside his house, nothing around him, holding a "for free" sign haha we laughed and then said "poor kid" haha oh boy.. I'm going crazy out here! But it's so much fun!


Saturday - First thing we did today is we got up and went to Zions camp (a church run camp)!! We went and did service! We helped level out the base of the garage driveway and we helped move gravel. That place is way cool! We got special permission to use the trucks and atvs and other machines for bigger projects, way cool! There manual trucks too ;) after that we came home and showered and did more studies. Later, we went to taco ball because the Idells where cutting our hair and they love Taco Bell and we met there to have some dinner. While we where there a really nice dude named Chris who was manning the register, talked to us! He said he was looking forward to the meetings but they never showed up, so we got his address and his number and we will be seeing him on Tuesday.We gave him 2 book of Mormons! He's a way cool dude, sat down and talked with him for about 10 min, got to know him. He will be coming to church on Thursday for volleyball and the Idells and him talked about rides to church! This is awesome! Last we went to the Idell's home and played some games and got haircuts. They are a really funny family! So full of love and so full of sarcasm! Love it! After that we went home because it was getting late haha great day!

Sunday - Today was a great day! It was fast Sunday and I fasted for the strength to learn Spanish and to retain the words and how to speak it. It's going great! We where able to introduce ourselves to the ward and express our love for them and bear testimony of prayer. The spirit was powerful! In second hour, we had a great lesson about faith from Brother Idell and 3rd hour we where with the teachers learning about the priesthood. After church we had a meeting with brother Larsen about the ward and the area, after, we went to the Buldics and had a great BBQ dinner! Wow it was amazing! After that, we went home. Pretty busy day but also very rewarding!


Last night the BYU RugbyTeam played at a field in Vermont then went to the Joseph Smith Memorial and a couple ward members where borderline gonna call Pres stoker and have us go with them, but unfortunately we couldn't do that as missionaries which was a little sad, but we saw videos and pictures of the event and it was crazy cool! So that's the rave today haha


Thank you everyone for all you do! I love you all and hope to hear from you soon! Have a wonderful week!

Love, Elder Vogel

April 5th - April 12th
Monday - Our PDay was nice and simple haha it snowed all day though.. We went and shopped and then we played around the apartment and later, we had a dinner with the Soucys. They are a really awesome family. They are funny, they love us and their kids are all just way funny! I hope to see them more often as time goes on!

Tuesday - We had a dinner at the Caverettas, they are such an awesome family! Later, the bishop and his Counselor came over and we all had a discussion about faith and about conference and families. It was awesome!

Wednesday - We had a good district meeting taking about the Sabbath day. It was a nice refresher and a good thing to talk about. Elder Pace and Elder Jensen where there so that was a great surprise to see those two. Love them and I miss them, haha. Elder Jensen is in Laconia as a Zone Leader and they are in exchange with the Manchester APs.(Assistants to the President) Manchester is only a 30 minute drive from where I am so they decided to head over to our district meeting. After, we went to go see a less active and there was a younger dude who found his hubcap on the side of the road and he was like "Praise the lord!!!!" Just super excited haha. There was another dude at the door named Caleb who, When we asked if the less active lady we were looking for, lived there, he looked completely shell shocked.. He probably thought we where FBI haha. We where in our black suits and asking questions and he was pretty silent about it haha. Oh well, on to the next person I guess. After some house work, we went to an interesting lesson with Matt...... Then went less active hunting down in Hampton and Hampton beach area. Elder Peterson saw, what looked like a 15 year old kid, smoking on the side of the road and we were going crazy haha "WAS THAT A KID!?!? HE LOOKS ABOUT 15!?!? WHERE AM I!?!?" Later lol we went to the church to watch the pinewood derby races!! We went for the last part of the cub scouts, and we stayed back to watch the adult one, but they never showed up.. Bummer haha but we still stayed and talked and got to know more of the members in the ward. Pretty crazy day.

Thursday - A very rainy and stormy day here in Exeter resulted in all of our plans cancelling accept for our lesson with Sally. It went great! She's an awesome lady and she's in school studying graphic illustration. It's way cool to see the things she designed! I told her I wanted to be a cyber security professional and her mind was blown! Haha she was like "thats way above me" haha she's from Brazil and she joined the church at 22. We asked her if she'd ever been to temple square and she was like "oh yea!!" Haha awesome awesome.

Happy birthday twins!! Boy, 11 years old! Hope it was an awesome, fun filled day!! I can't wait to skype and see you!! Love you both bunches!!


Friday - We had service at the food pantry and they loaded us up with food. After that, we pretty much tried to find people. We street contacted, no luck and we less active hunted, still no luck. Pretty unlucky day, but that's okay! It will be better tomorrow !!

Saturday - We got up and headed over to Jenness beach which is right above Rye Beach. It's way cool! We went with Chase and his friend Dylan. We cleaned the beach, picked up stuff and really had a great time doing it haha. We watched Robbie Madison's pipe dream because there where people out on the water surfing! Way cool!! After that we went to a Mexican place kinda like chipotle called Las Olas, but better! Then we went to Walmart because Elder Peterson dropped his iPad this morning and was freaking out because the glass cover he had broke and he got a crazy big case for it Haha. Later, we went to the church for the adult session of stake conference!! Wow was it awesome! There where so many missionaries there it wasn't even funny haha. We saw everyone from Portsmouth and Exeter and all the way from Sanford Maine to Georgetown Massachusetts, way cool!! The talks and the spirit present was amazing! Everyone was truly inspired and ready to help and talk about anything. The Exeter ward is great, the Exeter stake it really awesome! Can't believe it's almost been halfway through the transfer. This goes by fast!


Sunday - We had an amazing stake conference! It was fantastic to see everyone again, it was amazing to talk with others and it was a complete blast seeing Pres. and Sister Stoker! I loved the spirit that was there. I loved the testimonies about missionary work and about conversion and about the role of trials and the spirit. It was truly inspiring. After we said out goodbyes and helped out for a little bit we went to the Gish's for dinner! We stayed there pretty much the rest of the night. They are a wonderful family, so set on the gospel. Chase told us his two best friends from high school, Ben and Dylan,have read the majority of the Book of Mormon and he feels that Elder Peterson and I are the right Elders to teach them along with his family and Kaylee. Boy how crazy is that!!! We will be coordinating a time that we all can sit down and talk. So stoked!! After he shared that info, we hung out for a while and talked more about his mission and family stories. Gotta love it!


This week has been very interesting. A lot has happened and I'm kinda in the spiral thing. It's super hard to explain, I'm kinda in limbo. Alot of changes really fast. still trying to catch up in my head. I'm grateful for this chance to be a missionary and to meet so many awesome people. I'm super grateful to be here in Exeter and to help these people come closer to Christ and to also build eternal friendships with these people. The sacrifices to be a missionary are huge, but the rewards and the blessings are even bigger! We have zone interviews on Thursday, so I will be talking to President Stoker 1 on 1, I can't wait! I love that dude!


Chase shared with us a story about a missionary trainer who bought an Xbox and TV and played it on his mission while his trainee was itching to go work. When the Mission President walked in and saw him doing this, the Mission President cried and looked at him dead in the eyes and said "when have I not loved you."

That phrase is powerful. I wholeheartedly believe that if we do not do what the Lord has asked of us to do, that phrase will be presented to us at judgment. "When have I not loved you?."

He has given us so so much, and sometimes we take it for granted or we simply don't care. My eyes have been opened to the blessings, big and small, that the Lord has blessed me with. The fact I was adopted into an amazing family with these gospel standards, is a story and a blessing in itself along with the rest of my siblings. Heavenly Father asks so little of us, read the scriptures, obey the commandments, pray to him. So simple, so fundamental. Someone in one of my last areas complained "why is this gospel so simple?" Because God doesn't want it too difficult. Some people can't do the little things he asks, so why would he give us more? The little things are what help us everyday. Reading the Book of Mormon has grown my testimony so much, praying has grown my relationship with my Heavenly Father and I know it works.


Hope you all had an amazing week! Thank you for the support and the prayers! They are not forgotten!


Elder Vogel

P-day fun

Don't know what they were thinking...

enjoying time with a family

Missionary work is exhausting for Elder Peterson

Can I hit the Easter egg?

Saying Good-bye to some great kids

Transfers to Exeter, New Hampsire

March 28th - April 8th

Monday - P-Day we went shopping and then we went to Exeter for district P-Day and played games and laughed and had a wonderful time together. We all said our last goodbyes to the sisters before they left. They are wonderful, I'm really going to miss serving with them, they helped me grow and come closer to my Heavenly Father so so much. They will get married quick when they get home because who wouldn't want sister Pankratz or Evans !? There just awesome! Haha. After that, we went to the Gogans and said goodbye along with the Bennetts. Gonna miss Portsmouth so much, but I will be back sooner then I think! I wanna visit when I get the chance when I get home! After the Gogans, We came home and I finished packing for tomorrow's transfer day.


Tuesday - Super hard sleeping last night. Don't know why, maybe because my nerves where up, but that's okay, no biggie! We went to Portsmouth chapel to do exchanges where everyone, including sisters, where there!!! and then the 20 min car ride to the apartment with Elder Peterson.

Holy smokes!!! It's so much fun being with Elder Peterson again!! But it's way weird because we are in the zone leaders apartment! But we are having so much fun! It's like two best friends coming together after a while!! We love it! We street contacted and talked about stuff that happened this last week and we are also planning on how to help this ward. It's way difficult.. But we can do it!!! Later we went to the church and waited for brother Larson, the ward mission leader, and he never showed up so we went home and planned the rest of the night.


Wednesday - We had a great district meeting about keeping the Sabbath day holy. It was great to see the new sisters and elders in the district! A lot of laughs and a lot of spiritual gain! Elder Bundy asked us if we could be a kitchen appliance, want would we be and I said I'd be a trash can because I deal with all yalls trash haha. We also got to hear and see some other ones and where the new missionaries are from. Sister O'Bryant and Sister Pierce are both from Washington! Way cool!!! Elder Fransen is from Colorado and Elder Bundy is from Arizona and Elder Jenkins is from Utah haha way cool!! They will love this district!! After we... did some stuff in the apartment, we went and saw Matt Burton. Boy does he talk!! Haha he's a way cool dude! He just talks a lot! After that we went to the ducky pond for street contacting and discussed more about the ward and the needs and pretty much make a rough game plan. We will see what happens!! After that we went home and continued studies and dinner.


Thursday - Today our lesson with Linda fell through.. We went with brother Larson to try and find a few people before he had to go back to work, he's a cool dude!! But we had a pretty good lesson with Vinnie who had been a member but has been out of the church a while, so he's working with us for baptism again. After that, we went to the ducky pond again haha and talked to a few people about family history and watched the Exeter Academy canoe race. Way cool, after that we came home and did more planning. Not a crazy busy day today hopefully tomorrow will be better!


Friday - so I forgot it's Friday haha and we had to weekly plan.. There isn't much here in Exeter so it didn't take us to long. We went and did service at a food pantry here in Exeter and it was pretty cool. After that we came home, and it's very hot, we had a ping pong fight... Oh yes, there's welts haha we are gonna kill each other, but that's okay because I'll go out smiling! Haha. We had dinner at the Yorks!! They are a family called to serve for the New Hampshire Zions camp (LDS  owned camp). Holy smokes they are just funny, haha they are a smaller family, both converts. They have a great story and a wonderful testimony. We where talking with them and they call seagulls dump ducks haha and there was a raccoon outside and brother York says "That stupid trash panda!!" Hahaha we ate pizza and talked about stuff and the camp and their interests. Their daughter Gracie is a competitive horseback rider! She does hunter jumper and has been the state champion 4 years in a row! She's way good, with trophies everywhere and ribbons everywhere. Such a wonderful family. 

Tonight there was a major thunder storm! Wicked cool, lightning flashing, thunder pounding, it was a great sight and sound to witness haha reminds me of the storms at home only, these are a lot more fierce than at home haha awesome day!


Saturday - Saturday was full of  General Conference! Boy was it great! I loved the inspired talks and I loved the simplicity of the messages that where shared. I loved Elder Ballard's and Bednar's talked about a family council and the spirit and how it works. It truly inspires me and I now have a better understanding of the cleansing power of the sacrament. It's amazing to really ponder on theses subjects, such simple doctrine, but means everything for our salvation. Today they really emphasized marriage and eternal families.... Which is an awesome subject, but for a missionary who has only been out almost 6 months, makes me trunky (excited to go home)! But, I can still start and work hard to become worthy enough so when I do come home, my eternal companion will also be ready and we can start the next chapter together, but for the next year and a half, I've gotta suck it up! haha

Today I have really felt the spirit strong, not just because of the older fun and inspiring talks of the church leaders, but also towards the Exeter ward. I'm starting to get a bigger picture of the situation the lord put me in, but i'm super stoked and way honored to be apart of this! I can't wait for Sunday's conference session to see what else the inspired leaders of our church have for us.



Sunday - last night was terrible..... Our apartment is right next to train tracks and it comes regularly throughout the day... And night.. At 3am, That train decided to wake up all of Exeter.. Elder Peterson and I where not happy, I almost threw something at the train I was so mad.. So the rest of our day was simple haha we watched the morning session and then for the second session we went to the Gish's home. We didn't end up watching it haha, the Whites, Caverettas and Gish's where all there and we talked and talked and talked with Chase who got home from his mission in February. Talked about life, the less actives, everything. Built so much trust! We ended up staying there almost 5 hours.. Wow!!! Big no no, but it was well worth it haha. One of the members came up and told us "we are super excited you're here. We couldn't bond with the last set of missionaries because they didn't talk or interact as much, so thank you very much and we are super excited to be here with you." We shared our testimonies about prayer.  We read the story of Enos and the spirit was super super strong. I almost started crying, a couple of the women almost started to cry, it was such an enjoyable time with them. These families are only a few of the ones who are willing to help with the missionary work. I'm glad we have a good start on the trust again and we are very happy that we feel so involved like we're almost family.


From the talks that were shared from conference, I loved all the ones I've had to chance to hear. I loved how much family is so emphasized in our faith, family is the unit for everything and even though I'm getting trunky out of my mind and wanting to be a father and have my own family with an amazing wife by my side, I still have a little ways to go but the mission will prep me for the time to really start my family. The simplicity of the talks were amazing, president Monson gave such short, powerful talks. Everyone was truly inspired to share what they prepared.

I am so great full to have been called here to Exeter. I'm so happy the members are trusting and loving and feeding us so much. Already a week here and I can see this ward is going to be amazing. I already love everyone so so much and I want to help them as much as I can. It won't be easy or by any means a cake walk, but it will be hard and it will be truly beneficial. Thank you everyone for all the prayers and support you have for me, they work and they help so so much because it would be a lot harder if I had to do all of this myself.


Love you all

Elder Vogel
