Hey Family
Sounds like you have been having one of those fun weeks!!! I really don't miss those days ha-ha. this week has been good. we have had a lot of meetings and such. Monday was fun we had a couple of elders come and play basketball with us and hung out with them. Tuesday I didn't feel to great and we didn't do that much. Wednesday we had interviews with the mission president and were able to talk with him and how everything was going. Thursday we had zone training so we the last two days have been meetings and we haven't done much teaching because of it. but on Friday and Saturday and Sunday we were able to teach a couple lessons and were able to teach glen and see how he is doing with the whole drinking thing. We are going to see him tonight and hopefully he hasn't drank or we will have to move his baptismal date back which will be sad.
How's everything going? That's funny how you and dad have to get up early now. But I don't know how well dads going to like that. just hang in there. Its crazy to think that on the 22nd I will have been gone for 3 months. Its crazy because it doesn't seem that long but at the same time it does. But don't worry its a good experience and im glad I have the chance to be out here!
Love you all so much

Well hey there family Aug 19,2013
I want to say first of all sorry i haven't wrote you a letter back for a while. Its just been so busy that I haven't had time. This week we had to move our baptism date for Glenn back because he drank. That was one of the most disappointing moments i have ever had on my mission. it made me want to yell and just be done for the day. We are still working with him and hope that he will be ready some time soon.
Saturday we are going to get phone calls to see which one of us will be getting transferred to a different area or not. so next week i should know if I'm staying in mason or I'm getting moved to somewhere else. just a heads up.
Hows everything been? Is Weston still working? yes I did get his letter and Colts, Weston had a creative one. its always cool to hear encouragement from your brothers. How have you and dad been? Dad and Weston asked me if there was any good fishing and hunting places in mason, well for one i cant go fishing which is stupid, and two i cant go hunting which is devastating. but people do say there are some good spots so we might have to come back and try them out.
Today we are chilling with the Hampton elders, Me and elder Jackson ( from Arizona) were talking about hunting and fishing the other day and said he would like to come up and go with me one day when we get back off our missions. he is a way cool kid.
Well hope you are all having a good week and staying out of trouble!!! Talking to Weston on that one:) and everyone is doing great. I will write a letter today and tell a little more. Love you guys!!!!
