I heard from Bryson that you all are at Roosevelt so that sounds like a ton of fun! I definitely loved going there being with the cousins and family so you'll have to let me know how it all goes. Heard also that Bryson, Grant, and Savannah all did good out there on the lake from Dad so sounds like everyone is having a good time.

I'm assuming the package I sent made it there safe and sound and everyone got their gifts. Just had to find something fast and holy cow shipping stuff is expensive over here in California. That box just to be shipped was something like $15. But I mean it was worth it, using underwear as a packaging styrofoam was my idea, I know absolutely genius of me. Hold the applause for later.

Also I heard you all are going to Utah for July? What are you all doing up there? I know Bryson is doing EFY and maybe Savannah? Sounds like it'll be a ton of fun though, will you be seeing eveyone up there? Also how has the projects been going in the backyard? I know that is probably being a ton of fun back there.

I'm gonna guess that y'all are having a ton of fun and don't worry stuff like this happens all the time. And sad to say I almost forgot to send you an email, ALMOST, emphasis on the almost. I almost frightened myself and yes you will be surprised when you read that, I was surprised myself. Can never forget the awesome mom who has done everything for me, neverrrrrrrrr.

 But altogether though everything has been going well out here. I saw that Facebook post you sent about people sending me Birthday emails. My first reaction was, oh boy here we go. Thank you for that. I gotta get going soon because the emailing time is almost up, I'll do better next week, promise!! LOVE YOU MOM!! And I know I stink at taking pictures, I set an ACTUAL GOAL TO TAKE A PICTURE EVERYDAY!! So I'll follow up with you on that next week! LOVE YOU!!!

Question Time: 1. My week was definitely interesting, I'll tell you about it in a bit later on in this email. 2. I have no idea yet, I'll be in the office tomorrow so I'll look for it and see if it came in the mail. We don't open those suckers until later and its going to be quite a hassle trying to figure these things out before we roll out ALL the smartphones to all the missionaries but I am looking forward to it and seeing the success that can be found. And yes I will be becoming a Facebook missionary, whoopdy doo for you! 3. Ideas for him? Well I was thinking of trying to get him something but I keep running out of time and forgetting but don't tell him that. I LOVE HIM, just shipping is really expensive... But maybe something that I thought of is giving him a book series called Mystborn or another series by Brandon Sanderson, I heard his books are really awesome and I'll probably read them when I get back. I honestly don't know, you know better th...

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...

Did You Think to Pray? I actually took pictures this week. And for some odd reason this computer is denying me the right to access those photos... Hold back the pitchforks for now, I'll fix the problem sometime soon. But besides from that one. The title comes from a praying mantis I saw while knocking on doors. I went to go ring a doorbell and there is this giant praying mantis guarding the bell. I ended up not wanting to fight the thing and knocked on the door. Something our mission does every transfer (which is a six week period of time kept by missionaries), we have this thing called a zone conference. And all the missionaries here in the desert got together. Which is always a fun experience being out for little over 13 months now seeing people I've grown to meet and love during my time here and catching up with them. But the whole reason we got together was to learn and grow in our service out here. And something that stuck out to me was learning to set goals, but mo...
