Good morning, family!  This week is good.  Again, I am terrible at writing.  I am sorry, but it is not always my fault.  But, kinda is, haha.  Oh well, yeah, it is actually, but sorry.  Love you so much.

Yeah, I knew a lot of Wadworth's, and a few Bleaks there in Panaca. One was one of the ward mission leaders.  Kinda cool.

That is really cool that Evan got his mission call.  I am excited for him.  I bet he is so pumped.  I wish I could have gone at 18.  I would be home and engaged now, haha.  

How can you be at a car show and not get a picture of a car?  That makes no sense at all, haha.  Oh well.   

We are really doing good.  I was looking at the stats from the zone and since I got here the stats in the zone have more then doubled, which is exciting.  They are doing really good work and we have been able to see the difference in the work as they have worked harder.  

Love Y'all.

Hey, so this has been another good week.  I am loving the mission and really having a lot of fun.  We are doing good and we are seeing some exciting things happen in the area.  We are loving the ward.  This week we got to go to a symphony for the Zion's Youth Symphony.  It was really cool.  I really enjoyed it.  We had some time to see President Nieder and a lot of the missionaries that I knew on the other side of Vegas.  It was really cool.  I loved every minute of it.

Andrea, what about Mrs. ------?

Can you call them back?  (the Elders)

Hey family.  This week has been great.  We are still together and we are working hard.  We have found a few new investigators and so it has been great.  I really love the zone.  It is really cool to have the zone together and working hard.

I am hoping I will be able to train one day, haha.  I am tired of being a zl (zone leader).  I want to train a new missionary.  It will be new and fun, I think.  Just because I think that, it is going to suck when it happens, haha.  So Sister Black made me take a picture just for you, Mom, haha.  She said you commented on the blog, so she was going to put that one up there for you.  And so, I guess, she did, haha.  You are a stalker, haha, but it is ok.  I forgive you.  I am so happy that everyone is doing good at home.  I need --- to do better now.  He needs to go on a mission.  I am so grateful for my mission.  It is awesome.  It really is the best.  

Well, I love y'all and thank you so much.

Good morning!  Thanks so much for everything.  That is amazing that Miss ----------- is going to take the lessons.  That is awesome.   She is such a great lady.  She was so nice to me.  I hope everything goes good with that.  I am going to write that note in hand-writing, haha.  I don't want to email that.  I will send it tomorrow.  That is great to hear, though.  Let me know as soon as you know what is going on with that.  Would be awesome.

So, transfers.  We are staying together with my comp, which is awesome.  I am excited to do that. (this last period was actually there!!  I didn't add it!  :)  I am so excited to see everyone on Mother's Day.  It will be good. 

I love y'all.

Dear mom,

Hey sorry, I had like two seconds yesterday because of President's Day, so I can get on today.  We are doing good in Vegas.  We are working hard and really having a lot of fun.  I might end up rooming with my comp at BYUI, and also Elder Driggs.  It would be a lot of fun.  We are enjoying great weather and I love the ward.   Transfers are coming up this week.  I don't know what will happen.  It will be fun to see.  I think I will stay, but you never know.  We shall see.  Sorry, running low on time.  

Love you.

Hey, yes ma'am.  I got the package, haha.  It was awesome.  My whole zone learned how to crack a whip.  It was sick, and thanks so much for the Valentines.

Hey family, whats up?

  

This week has been really good.  We have had a baptism in the area for the first time in like 6 months, but it was good.  The lady was really, really prepared and it was great.  The ward is really catching the spirit of missionary work.  It is great to see their enthusiasm to the work, which is great.

We are hoping to have a few more come up this week, which will be really nice to have.  But, we are excited to be able to work here.

I love y'all so much, and, yes, I am excited to get home, haha but, not too bad.  I am a little trunky, haha.

Hello, family, we had the temple day today, and it was really great to be able to go.  Throws off the week, though, with p-day on a different day.  It makes things a little weird.

We had a good week, though.  I hit my head pretty hard playing football yesterday for morning sports and it shook me up a little.  But, I am alright.  The lady I live with is a nurse, or something to do with the medical field, so she said I was ok, haha.  But, I slept a little and I feel a lot better.  Me and my comp are really getting along good now.  We have a lot of fun together, and make a lot of jokes, and talk about girls all the time, haha.  Just a little, haha.  But, it is good.  I think the ward likes us and we love working with the ward.  They are really great to us and we have fun.  

The more I think about home, the more nervous it makes me, haha.  I don't know how to be a regular person anymore.  I hardly remember that, haha.  It will be weird.  I hope.  It should be fine, though.  I will be ready when the time comes, though.  We have a baptism coming up on Friday.  It should be good.  This lady has really changed her life in so many ways and has found true happiness.  Well, I got to go.  Love ya.

That is good news i am glad he is doing good
