Sorry dad for my emails getting shorter and shorter. I try to make them long but I'm running out of things to say. I don't have as many crazy experiences as Mark does lol. That would be a fun mission though. So today we played football and I kinda hurt my ankle.  It's not as bad as what it was. This week has been pretty good though. We started teaching a guy named Dorian. He is in Linder ward and is dating a member. The girl that he is dating, her mom called you when I messed up my foot. It's the Crane family. They are really cool. We are almost done with the lessons for Lindsay Waters. Her baptism is June 26. Then the Bells are gonna be baptized maybe June 24. We hung out with the Bells and had dinner with them yesterday. It was pretty fun. To be honest I played NCAA football with some of the kids. It was pretty fun and good to play with them. Marie is also having her sealing. That will be the first sealing I will go to. So that should be pretty neat. To answer your question I know Elder Corbit. He is a huge gunner. He is pretty good at basketball though. Its pretty crazy to think the house is that quiet. It will be weird when I get home not having Mark and them around the house. Our condo looks pretty nice. I think I will really like it. I'm looking forward to getting to use the jet ski and going water skiing. I have already started packing stuff for going home in boxes to send. I would love to be able to spend time with the Barnes if they are able to come pick me up. (He has a 4 hour layover in Salt Lake).  Elder Etherton would probably come too. I have became really good friends with him. I replaced him when I came to this area and he has served around this area some. He is pretty cool and from Dallas, Texas. I've met a lot of cool missionaries on my mission and a lot of good new friends. Its good to hear that everyone in the family is doing well and ok. Anyways im gonna get going. Yall have a great week.

Hey how are yall doin? This week has been pretty boring. There isn't much really to say. Elder Ware has had the flu literally all week. Its really been boring. But at least I like Elder Ware and can talk to him all day. The only highlight of the week was the baptism we had. It was Kassey Massey who ended up getting baptized. Elder Ware interviewed her since he has never taught her and he had to call President Cannon to come do the interview because of some things. But all turned out well and her husband is gonna take us golfing sometime soon. It will be a lot of fun and maybe I can actually learn how to golf. Anyways how is everyone in the family doing? Would it be ok if I got a smart phone when I get home? Like a droid or something? Anyways sorry this is so short. I need to get going. I hope yall have a great week and take care.

Well this week has been a awesome week. As you know I get to serve with Elder Ware. Its going to be a lot of fun. So we have a total of 12 baptismal dates. We set a baptismal date with the Bell family. They will be baptized on the same day that girl named Lindsay will be. So June 25. Kassey Massey will be baptized this Saturday. We are having a ton of baptisms and the work has really picked up. I'm excited to see what is going to happen. Elder Ware and I are going to have a lot of fun and work hard. I picked him up yesterday. It took forever cause the mission truck broke down on the way up to Boise and he was in it. I was shocked that I got to serve with him. Cause we are both going home at the same time. I think the AP's made it happen. Both of us were pretty good friends with both of them and they convinced President to put us together. We are going to have a lot of sucess in the area I think. We went and saw his grandparents last night at his Aunts house in Kuna. President Cannon said we could go and do that. His Aunt lives in Kuna and his grandparents were visiting lol. They took us out to dinner. I'm also still a District Leader and so is Elder Ware. We will both probably swap out District meetings. Anyways I hope yall have a good week. Take care.
