Dear Mom,


I have had an awesome week. I haven’t gotten any other packages other than the Christmas one. I don’t know if you had anything else that you sent. I carved the little knife myself...:)

I love you tons! I’ll talk to you later.

Dear dad

Man was that clip funny! The monster truck usually doesn’t tip over, so that was kind of wierd...but awesome at the same time.

Ya, it’s awesome we have an appointment with Alf and Joan today. We are sacrificing half of our preparation day to find new people. I know that we will be blessed in doing that. It was no problem getting those Christmas presents.

I sent Jared a birthday gift...DONT TELL HIM!!! It’s been hard to lose weight because we have a car, but I am still trying really hard to lose weight.

It's pretty hard to have a favorite scripture but I have chosen that one [Ether 12:27] as my favorite. I try harder and harder every day to center my life around the Lord and be the best I can be. I am always striving to do my best.

It’s crazy to think that I have already been out on my mission for 5 months, but I’m seeing the lords hand in all that I do and I am becoming better and better at sharing the gospel. I love the Lord; I love this gospel, and I love you. Thank you for all that you have done for me.


Dear jared,

I loved getting that stuff for you and it was fun to make the little knife.

Ya, I love monster trucks.. You got a new suit for church? That’s awesome:) Ya, Christmas was awesome. I miss you too. Love you tons!

Love
