Hey everyone!

Ok, Mom I am going to answer all of your questions. I have tons of food and candy that I don't know if I will ever eat, but I'm trying. Today me and my companion had scones for breakfast that Mal sent and they were great. The food here does get old fast....everything is tasting pretty much the same but I have gained 10 pounds since I have been here and then lost 2 pounds. I'm not fat or anything and I still have my 6 pack hahahah. I'm good on blankets I actually sleep really really good now cause I'm so worn out by the time I get to bed. With the Texas flag I'm going to hang it up either in our room or in our classroom hahahaha you have to Rep your state you know. :) I think they are switching me out of District Leader cuz it's almost the half way mark so I think they will probably do that Sunday. I like it but it is stressful cause I try and study but have to make sure everyone else is doing what they are supposed to and I have meetings and stuff so it will be nice to have a break but I still love it. The people that were struggling in my district have been doing better. I just wanted my blue suit. I missed it and here we have to wear a suit everyday but I will probably send it back when I leave cause I will just wear slacks when I get there. My tennis shoes are good I hardly ever wear them. Yeah lots of people write to me. I am doing really good the language is tough but is still coming. I love this work and can't wait to go to Houston. I don't feel like I'm in Utah anymore to be honest the only time that I feel like I am is when I go to the temple. It looks the same as the Ogden temple so every time I go I look for my mom on the other side and it's tough.

I love you all and I know that this work is true. Have Jordan and Rylee write me I haven't heard from them lately. Oh and just a warning I need to say. Nobody try to come visit me hahaha that would be way too hard and way against the rules. I have already called kids out on it when we go on the temple walk and by them doing it we will all lose temple walk next week. Just see me in a few years. :) Love you all and I know that you wouldn't do that but just had to say it. Bye!

Hey everyone,

How are things going? Everything here is great! I love learning so so much. I found the coolest way to mark my scriptures this week, it has been the excitement of the week. I am still doing good with most everything but the language is getting challenging. I'm just not stressing over it because I know that if I keep studying that I will get it. It's just tough because you have to do so much stuff all at once here and its a huge part of why Elders learn it so fast. I hope things are going good at home. I pray for you guys every night. Thanks for all of the letters and packages. Getting mail is fun. Since I am the District Leader I get the mail so I get to play games with the Elders in my district. hahaha Sorry I can't take many pictures, we can only take pictures on Sunday and pday. There isn't much to take pictures of here anyway. I love you all and love hearing from you.
