That's awesome about Mike!  So I have a couple things to say, not a whole lot went on this week other than we found two new people to teach, heck yes but ya it was cool. sounds like you had fun tending the two boys the other day sounds like you had some fun. 

Yup its finally getting warm here in Iowa and melting the snow really fast there are days where I can go out in just a white shirt and not have to worry about anything getting cold ha-ha.

it's all good if you cant find hi chews then it will be OK its just something new. 

Any who hope you all have a great week and don't flood because that would be bad ha ha. hope you are all having a good time and stay classy.

I love you all and hope you keep up the good fight! 

Love Elder Bracken Smith

Hey there family!

Ha ha whats new with me? funny you should ask that question. one night i was walking up the stairs to the top floor of our house and i thought elder deeds was in bed but turns out he wasn't and its pitch black and i cant see anything. so i got to the top of the steps and looked over to this one room where our desks and stuff is and i saw a black silhouette of something that looked like a person and i slipped and fell down the steps and i got a gnarly bruise from it i will have to send you a pic of it.  

This week was a good one so we finally got to stop at bass Pro shops this last Tuesday it was sweet. We are going again this next Thursday. its an awesome store.

No i didn't get that package from Nancey yet i don't know where it went or if it even came. Staying warm are you kidding me its -20 to -30 with wind chill the last couple days ha-ha we have been grounded for the past couple days from walking.

Hey no problem it has been something i have learned more on my mission and i thought you needed to hear it too. it is sad sometimes but it will all be OK.

HOLLY CRAP ARE YOU SERIOUS he is 6 1 where the heck did that come from? he isn't my little brother anymore he is huge. but he still has a couple inches before he is taller than me so its all good. how much is he doing when he lifts though?  

I know 10 months has gone by fast and to think i only have 14 months left crazy crazy 

well there is a Wendy and some others like MacDonald but ya know what ever works for you 

um i don't think there is anything i need right now but if i think of anything i will let you know.

thank you so much for everything you do for me i love you guys alot.
