We got a random Sunday email...
Nov 8th
hey momma(: so random quick email, i was wondering, do you think its a better idea for me to buy clothes here for back home, or just wait till i get back to buy clothes? a lot of missionaries just buy clothes here at the end of their missions cuz clothes are super cheap here, but i was wondering what you think i should do. and could you respond today, so that way i know what im gonna do tomorrow for Pday?(:
love you momma, have a good day at church!!(:
Hi Cutie,
Oh my gosh I miss you so dang much, especially now that I know that you will be home in just over 2 weeks!!!!!
On buying clothes I kinda think you might wait. Maybe buy like one outfit. Not to offended, but you have been out of American style for like 2 years, so you may want to get home and get a feel for the style before you buy too much. Plus you are the same size as two of your bros and they will let you borrow. Also we have like 10 pairs of jeans for you to try on when you get home, I am sure one or two will work, so don’t buy jeans!! Also, a nice bonus is that Grammy says you’ve missed 2 years of birthday shopping so I am sure their is a shopping trip in the near future!
Bottom line- Don’t buy clothes ;)
Holy COW!! I can’t wait to see you!!!!!!!!!!
LOVE YOU ALWAYS
momma

Hey Momma,
haha yea i didnt do any shopping yet, and okay i'll wait. clothes are just sooooo cheap here haha, plus the US is usually about 2 years behind Europe in style, so as i get home America should be just about catching up to what i've been used to for the past two years haha. like the clothes that i see in the pics from Brig and Mason and from other friends who send me pics, within the last 6 months or so has started to look a lot like the style here. especially the pants that chicks wear with the waistline that goes all the way above the bellybutton, i freakin hate those pants! but yea i'll wait to buy clothes, thats funny that you hid clothes from the boys haha, you're such a good momma(:
so far we havent really done anything today. out behind our chapel has some walls with stones and old buildings around it and stuff, so i just spent like 2 hours climbing all over it haha. i miss climbing and doing outdoorsy stuff... but i wont have to miss it for long! but i think that later today we may go to a big shopping mall to get some food and this really yummy ice cream haha.
this past week we spent a ton of time organizing this list our bishopric gave us. we're going through every (and i mean EVERY) member registered in our ward thats not active, and we're passing by them and seeing if either us or family home teachers can start visiting them again, and if they'd like to come back to church. Our ward has a lot of difficulties with Family Home Teachers, so we're working a ton with the bishopric trying to kickstart the system. a loooooooot of people want nothing to do with us haha, but every now and then we find someone who really actually likes seeing us again and stuff. like yesterday we had a guy here at church, he served a mission a while ago, then went inactive for whatever reason, and now he's coming back, and he's a total stud. i'll have to try and get a picture with him.
OH YEAH!!!! just to let you know, my camera broke like 3 weeks ago haha, it just pooped and wont turn on or anything. so im just mooching off one of the elders in my house and i keep using his camera, but i realized that im not gonna have a camera for the trip home, which totally sucks. i was thinking, if you guys are okay with it, i could buy a camera, like just a decent one, and then when i get home we'd just save it until Brig goes on his mish?
but it was a pretty good week, an investigator got baptized yesterday which totally rocks. her name is Marisa, she's been dating a member for a while and the member started bringing her to church and she loved it, so we gave her a book of mormon, and she said that when she read it she cried a bunch, and she's like i've only been to church once, but i miss it and i feel this desire to go back. she's super sweet. and her boyfriend baptized her yesterday, but it sucks a little bit cuz she's moving to England on wednesday. but at least now she's moving there with the Gift of the Holy Ghost haha. and when she gets there we'll transfer her records, and she can have a ward or branch there waiting to greet her, which i think will be good for her, cuz she's really nervous.
yea i like my comp, and he's totally fine now. im the one who's freaking out haha. it blows my mind being able to say that next week is my last week haha, like what the freak?!
and yea im in a 4 elder house, but like every Pday we hang out with other elders. plus since im using the camera of another elder to take pics, i only remember when we're doing something like at a big meeting or hanging out with others haha.
and i really dont feel too sad about leaving, but i think thats because i know im coming back like a month later haha. but im sure that saying goodbye after that trip is just gonna suck super bad haha. it jsut really freaks me out that im gonna see you guys again and be back home again haha, like i just feel like im gonna get transfered to somewhere else. some elder asked me what it feels like to be going home, and i really dont feel like im going home. its like being in an area and knowing that on transfer day you're gonna leave, but it doesnt feel like you're going home. i feel like ive been here my whole life, so the thought of going home doesnt really register in my mind haha.
And i dont know about UVU, i'd have to think about it. cuz like the whole reason i want to go to ASU is cuz its in Arizona. i would have no problem going to UVU or even BYU if it was in AZ. cuz honestly in my mind, i see college more as a thing to keep me busy while im getting ready for the Rangers. and so for about that year or so that im home before leaving for the Rangers, i'd actually like to spend it at home. if ASU is too expensive i can work for a while and just go a semester later, it really doesnt bother me. haha believe it or not, but im actually not dying to get back to school(; and maybe im looking at the wrong thing, but im gonna put below the links about the costs of ASU and UVU. and in the ASU one, you can break it up into costs of tuition per credit. if i only take like 3 hours a day, that takes tuition down to like 2grand per semester.
but yea i guess we've got time for that after i get home(:
and yea i got a big ole letter from colton, i'm expecting him to be there at the airport, and Brandon too haha. i dont really know about anyone else, but i wouldnt mind at all having anybody that wants to be there show up haha.
well you're really only gonna get one more "normal" email from me, cuz the one after that is just a quick one saying that im getting on the plane haha, and honestly i dont even know if i'll send that haha, im gonna see you right after! haha
i love you guys have a good week! and enjoy the peace and quite while it last, cuz you've only got 2 more weeks of it! cuz im just as loud as i've ever been, and i've had to restrain myself from being loud for 2 years, so its gonna be like opening a 2liter coke bottle after shaking it all up..... for 2 years! haha i love you guys!!!!!(: cant wait to see you again!!(:
