Hey Mom,

Golfing was good, But, I'm not that great at it. I lost several balls ;) We talked to they guy though and he said that we could go two times a month. I'm pretty sure we will end up taking that offer. We are going again today. As far as Garments. I get the small tall I believe.. So Small tall mesh Tops and some 30's briefs for the bottoms.. If you haven't sent it yet. if so That's alright. (I hope you aren't sending that part either I don't really think people would like to see what my underwear size is...) By the way... I have no idea what Dole whip is, Just so you know... but what I do know is; I'm tempted to go to GNC and get some leaning supplements and then some hydration stuff because you can get drained so easy with it's in the 90-100s and the humidity ranges from 30-70%. So I might need some money on my Debit card.

Jayme sent me an e-mail and said that she feels like there was a lot of people there and so I'm glad that she was happy about it. that's the most important thing is that she feels like she was well supported. I couldn't see the pictures.. I think you might need someone to help you with that. It doesn't ever seem to work when you try to send me pictures this way! haha ;P Don't worry about when I get married, If i do... You will be off the hook and just get to sit back and watch all of it unfold, so no worries there. It will be a good while before that happens though.

Tell Matthew happy birthday for me! I'm pretty bad at remembering sending cards so if he doesn't get one.. Tell him I lost it in the mail, But I will try to remember to pick one up at the store today. (I am getting better at remembering when people birthdays are, you gotta give me credit for that!)

You don't have to worry about me getting married young, we all know that I'm not going to get married until I'm 30 or so.... ;P but hey look at it this way. You aren't getting old, everyone is just catching up to you. That's all ;)

This last week was the best one that we have been able to have all transfer. Were able to find and teach new investigators and actually teach. It's kind of nerve racking teaching with Elder porter though because he isn't has familiar with the lessons yet so important principles and doctrines within the principle get missed but we were able to have the spirit with us and so it was still good. Just could have been better though. I cant completely take over though because that will disable him and he wont learn how to teach so, you live with it. This next week seems hopeful, until Thursday, we don't really have anything planned past then. hopefully we will be able to find more and then get to meet with them later this week so we can continue to find and teach. Interesting enough though, I have been able to get pretty good at having members come out with us and drive us around when we go teaching (even when some people are never there... they still come) So I don't have to ride my bike that much. it's really nice when it's raining really hard or when it is really hot. I'm lazy in that aspect I guess you could say. but don't worry. that's probably the only thing that I am Lazy in right now. We don't have anyone progressing right now, we are working with those we have found and are inviting them to church and hopefully they will come so we can help them progress towards baptism.

Two and a half more weeks and I will have been out a year. It's weird to think. Time has gone by so quickly and they say that time doesn't start to go fast until after your year mark. I guess we will see.
Transfers are next week. I think I will be staying here again. Odds are that I will because I need to finish going through the trainer packet with Elder Porter. You never know though.


I know my e-mails are a bit lame, but You know me. I run out of words sometimes.
That's about it for this week. We will see what adventures lay ahead.

Love ya!

Hey dad,

You better be in shape and still running when I get home because I will need to get into that habit of working out again. workouts on a mission are atrocious.


The teaching appointments went well. we had more than we normally do. That was nice, we were able to have the spirit with us for most of them so are hopeful about those who we have started to teach and hopefully we will be able to continue to teach them and bring them to baptism.

Honestly, Not too much developed this week. still a lot of finding and hopefully we can help the people we find want to investigate and then join the church. we will see what unfolds.

I can't believe it's Matthew's birthday. he is 13. by the time I get back he will be a teacher and Ammon a priest. It's kind of strange to see all of that going on and then to even think about what I have to do when I get home. I actually have to grow up. that is a bit unfortunate. but hey. I still have another year before I have to really grow up.

anyways. transfers are coming this next week. I can see me staying, but I can see me leaving. Odds are though that I will stay one more transfer and finish training Elder Porter.

Love ya
