hey mom

 

it is supposed to be the coolest part of the year here in dar but its still hot for me ha but im hoping that i get used to it pretty soon now. well for now i will apologize because today i have even a shorter time to email so i wasnt able to bring my camera and stuff. so next week for sure haha.  the couples that are here are the nolls and the worthens. they are both pretty weird but they are ok. they are really uptight so i call them nazis but its just a joke haha. im glad that you guys had a good 4th of july and i am happy you had a good birthday. and im also glad that you guys didnt go to six flags cause then i would have been home sick haha. but but im glad that jay did some good things for you on your birthday. that was nice of him. and i think that you can only show him that wickedness never was happiness by your example. and thats it. but tell grandma and tina thanks for giving me some money. i really appreciate it cause i really enjoy food and its expensive here haha.

well for me this week was good. we had zone conference. it was nice. this year we are all reading the triple combination. we will be reading it to help it help us to understand the atonement better. i am going to start when i finish the book or mormon here soon. but im excited for it. we had burgers and fries which was nice but like usual it didnt fill me up but then we had some cake and i took a good amount and then i was pretty good. haha but the next day we came to be interviewed by the mission president. my interview was good. on sunday also we had a baptism of a guy name sylvester. he has been taught by missionaries for awhile but he has been moving so he hasnt been able to be baptized but we did it haha. a guy from the branch baptized him and on this sunday he will be confirmed. but other than that just been sweating here doing missionary work. its been good but a little tough with things i cant control but i guess thats what happens here.

 

so i have a request...will you find out for me when football camp starts for next year? i talked to pres broadbent and he said that i can adjust some things with coming home and stuff like that. so i would really appreciate if you can do that for me. well i love you and i hope everything is going well there.

love reese
