Hey Dad,

The pictures you sent looked like a really cool place to go. How far
did you have to drive? That would be a fun place to go in about 6
months! Do you enjoy going on the campouts with the kids or is it
pretty tough?

I am glad everyone is feeling better by the way. That seems
like a tough time over there!

I have one shirt that fits well thats says 15 1\2 and 32-33 but then
the ones that are a bit bigger are the same size. I think it just
depends on the brand that you get but I think maybe a 15 and a 30-31
would be ok. That is my best estimate though. I decided not to get a
suit. I will just hold out with the ones I have here. It really is not
worth all the hassle and cost to get one.

Elder Miles was the assistant before me. It was crazy because he is
one transfer a head of me and served here for 4 transfers. He was just
over a year and had never been a Zone Leader so it was a big shock for
everyone. He went out into the field and is now a Zone Leader and has
about 5 months left. Pretty crazy but he is a really cool guy. My
companion, Elder Raban, is on his third transfer here and goes home in
like a month. So that means I will get a companion and then probably
do 2 transfers with him. Then I will leave and have 2 back in the
field. Which is good because I have a request as to where i want to
go. We will see what happens! :)

We had 4 zone conferences to teach at this week so that really took a
toll on the sleep but it all went really well. We have one more
tomorrow and then we are complete! I am excited to finish up and then
to push forward with the other tasks. I had a cool experience! My
trainer has been home for about a year but he came out to go through
the temple with a family he taught. It was sweet because he visited me
and we got to catch up on life and just tell stories. It was neat
because he said he could see the growth that I had made in the past
year which was a good sign for me. His name is Casey Powell. Its funny
because he now has this super crazy beard going on! I will try sending
pictures when I get them.

On Saturday, we got to do a service project at Arlington National
Cemetery! They put wreaths on the head stones at christmas time and so
we had to help take them down.. all 200,000 of them! Good thing there
was a ton of people to help out but it was a really cool experience. I
can send some pictures of that as well!

I love you Dad! Have a fantastic week. Miss ya.
