Yeah it was good to talk to the entire family again. I honestly miss everyone but its not distracting me, but I did enjoy the time spent being able to call. I try to keep my humor with me at all times, gotta just be myself but of course while trying to represent Jesus Christ and His church. Man sorry to hear that people are starting to get sick, I'll continue praying for y'all always but everyone will start feeling better eventually, that's how the human body should function, if not probably go talk to Dad. I think for Bryson its that age of life in just teenage stuff and high school drama on top of everything. But I do think just always trying to communicate whenever possible will make it better for everyone. I honestly cannot give such advice because you raised (and still raising) all four of us so you got the best advice. But I can say that the Savior's way of healing and loving everyone is the best example of love that can be shown. Mother's have that special bond I do believe. The closest thing we have to Christlike love besides from the Spirit, cannot replace a Mom though, no way no how.

I guess I don't really have a lot to talk about since we kind of just talked yesterday but I'll definitely do better next week for sure. I'll make sure to take some pictures for you Mom, I know you love em and I gotta make a more "conscious" effort to take pictures I kind of just don't do it but I'll make sure to do it for sure. I'll make it a goal how bout that! 

But I guess to add to the birthday list you were asking for is maybe just a how to begin drawing of something. Like action or people or faces? I don't know something along the lines of that, maybe have Bryson pick for you. He always has the best ideas when it comes to me for some reason, he is funny like that. And I did tell Bryson to tell you about a suggestion so I guess we'll see what happens. I'm going to try and send a package today home to you guys and if not hopefully next week, either way it'll have some little gifts for all of them (I forgot to give Piper something though so maybe next time). Anyways though I gotta get going, love you Momma!!!

Thanks Dad. You gotta give yourself a ton of the credit though because your example is what molded me into who I am today. A combination of You, Mom, and of course life with all is fun little things here and there so its a fun little clay making party I guess? Terrible joke I know, hold the tomatoes until I finish. It was good to talk with everyone again, I miss you all, you just couldn't see it. But you probably knew that anyways, thanks for offering the a-salt gun but I'll just have to pass on that. Maybe when I get back me and you can go bug hunting sometime, or actual hunting. Except hopefully I actually pull the trigger I suppose. And I'll try and learn how to swallow pills, no promises though, I'll try though.

Oh I bought that tuna you showed yesterday and a thing of mac-and-cheese so I'll make it tonight and try it tomorrow and then make a video with how it tastes since you wanted me SO BAD to try it. 

Little unfortunate the church wifi cut out in the middle of my prayer. It was probably Heavenly Father having a little fun in the mix and reminding me that "Hey there gotta get back to work". Or because church wifi but either way I was super glad to talk with everyone. Yeah I miss Bryson too, I try and keep in constant communication with him, I know he'll do great things. He is super smart and he'll go far. Just keep loving him and being that strong parental example Dad. You got this afterwall.

Altogether though not much more to talk about over here on my side. I love you all deeply and I appreciate the prayers. All the missionaries definitely do need it and I'll always remember to pray for you all as well. Love you Dad!!!

We had a mission conference yesterday so our preparation day got switched today for the time being. But we might be having a temple trip sometime this next month in November, but I'll try and warn you and everyone in advance. I honestly dont know if I will, just thinking about it makes me queasy. I know that trials are for the better, but I really really really want it to be done. Truly. I'm going to be sending a letter to the Mulder's sometime today or tomorrow, cause I am thankful for them. I dont even know anymore honestly.  Yeah I heard about Elder Noorlander's little brother coming to the mission a couple weeks back. Everyone here was honestly shocked, because as far as I know that's never happened. He comes into the mission sometime in December I believe. Well my new companion is Elder Singleton, and as far as I am concerned I hope and pray I only stay with him for this one and only transfer. He was trained by actually my trainer (my 2nd one), Elder Chris

Yup transfers happened today and Elder McLaughlin is leaving to go finish training another Elder who just came out 6 weeks ago. He'll do great out there, I'm getting Elder Johnson (he came out into the mission when I was in my 4th transfer in Ontario) and he's from North Carolina! I've served around him quite a bit so this'll be fun! I think PDay will still be the same. We can email from our phones and not everything is closed so it'll be fine, what holiday is coming up? I don't know anything so far as of right now concerning my mission reassignment. It'll probably be talked about later in the future, still up in the air but I believe President Taylor has been talking with the neighboring missions concerning what'll happen.  Mary did pass her baptismal interview though this past Wednesday! She's super excited for her baptism coming up really soon. We started making her baptismal program for her and inviting everyone we know to come and attend.

Alright Question time: 1. How'd the week go? Well we had zone conferences so we had it in the desert and the valley so that took out a good chunk of time during the day. But I was able to learn a lot regarding studies and how can we get more out of them. After all the purpose of studying is rooting ourselves more in the gospel and replenishing our understanding. I feel like if we have a purpose of why we are studying or praying to learn about new things it'll be given unto us. 2. Anything exciting? Well recently our mission and a couple missions ran into a little problem. All the missions with technology using the MaaS360 app had a pretty harsh thing happen. Somehow all the apps or things we use got disabled and removed so we no longer have our Area Book Planner, Facebook Messenger, and a ton of other apps that are to make the work move forward. Lots of missionaries called us this morning. I counted 22 phone calls and 11 text messages from all different missionaries
