If you look close elder stapley has the fangs in, I am so proud of these missionaries.

This week has been going by so fast the weeks start to feel like days its going by so fast but I love it out here. This week we were able to see alot of our people its a good feeling to know that you are helping people learn of what the truth has in store for them

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE PACKAGE. I will send you pictures when iIremember to bring my camera haha sorry.

I almost died laughing when I pulled out the package of boogers and I just thought of how much you gaged when you saw those or when I sent you a picture of them in my mouth haha .

Ya we get to go to a Halloween party on Wednesday and then we might have to stay in side on the 30 to the 31 because Iowa is crazy

Hey!

This week was good and we were able to see all our investigators but 1 and that's a great thing. We have also been able to set dates with all of them but 1 so that's a way good thing. 

Ya transfers always suck so we are both hoping we stay together. 

Oh no I'm fine with clothes and things it was because we kept the windows open and it felt good enough plus it was nice its all good

Your on fall break? man i don't even have to worry about that. its crazy to think all you have to worry about is the people you are teaching and that's it. nothing else no worldly things or anything just gospel things which has been a big change for me since day one but its getting much better. 

man sounds like they did good this week beating up 50 to 0 man sounds like they have a good team. have they lost yet? 

Dad sent me a letter and he told me almost the same things you said.

Oh ya i have some things i need to send to you guys, its cool 

sounds like you were the right person for the job when it comes to trials, I know at least one you had to overcome well two but sounds like you did a good job and such so that's always a good thing to have over with. 

well hope you have a great week and that you all are doing good and staying busy love you guys
