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!!!

Hi Momma!

Yeah I am in a new area, and in a new apartment which is a lot nicer than the older one I stayed in, just has a lot more room (I forgot to take pictures which I promise to do that). It's just me and Elder de La Torre in this apartment. From what I can tell you Elder de La Torre is from Las Vegas, Nevada which is super close to our mission and it turns out he is actually a "trial missionary" and he might be staying in this mission or be called to somewhere else. His mom is a member and his father is currently investigating in the church so it's pretty cool. He loves music and played in a mariachi band for a little while and did orchestra so he is pretty awesome, and he speaks fluent spanish which helps when we run into a lot of spanish speaking people here in Ontario.  Yeah it is kind of crazy how fast time has flown by honestly, I feel like I've been here for awhile even though I haven't and even though the end is far away it seems to be coming up kind of qu...

A New Perspective Hence the title, I got new glasses since my old perscriptions were causing a bit of strain, but we are feeling better now and kicking into overdrive! Don't worry there will be a photo at the very end with the new glasses, don't get too excited yet you still have to drag through this email. But lets move on shall we. This past week... I'll be completely honest it has been a struggle here. Not going to lie, my hardest area yet since being in the mission field. My companion and I go straight to the mission office to make sure everything in the mission moves forward and everyone's jobs are easier... Then we go into our teaching area and try and find people. In my entire time here, its been 4 months now we have found only a couple people that would let us teach them. And they all dont want to meet anymore. Its been hard, but thats where faith comes in I guess. It tests you, your work ethic, your testimony, and just the faith to find one person who ...

Hello Mom and Dad!!

Glad to hear everyone is doing really well! What is actually funny is since I was still a little sick I called the mission nurse and she asked me who she just saw, and mentioned Mom dropping by with Sister Kerby's mom dropping off gifts so that caught me off guard. But that is super awesome that you took the time and love to give gifts to everyone! Time can fly by pretty quickly sometimes and other days it just seems to drag on for awhile but all together I've been out for more than 4 months now... Time really has just flew. And YES we do get to talk on Christmas using Skype, I recently got an email from my Mission President with information on rules and regulations. We get about 30-40 minutes at the maximum and I believe we'll be able to text your number with the member's phone or call ahead as we prepare to Skype (the Hannett Family offered their home for Skyping for us). But for everything pertaining to that on Christmas Day even though its supposed to be our Prepara...
