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!!!

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 ...

I honestly cannot recall who Connor Peterson is right now. My brain has a REALLY hard time remembering people's names with their faces, you already know that though so I'll let you sigh in defeat over there. Every time they sing "God Be With You Til We Meet Again" is such a good one, gets me every time as well, its a good one in general though, personally one of my favorites. I think one of my favorite hymms of all time though would have to be "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing". Such a good one. I can imagine its pretty hard to not wanna hug me. I'm a hug-able guy I guess. If I was in your shoes I would probably have floored the gas pedal as well, or probably go around the area in a 30 mile radius so I don't get the temptation, but hey you used your agency wisely so good job Mom! I have noticed that about being the decider, but I do believe we have to have a fine line of deciding but also being willing to submit to what others decide as well. We...
