Mom,
Service today, so im going to take some time to write.
Im glad to get your message. It sounds like everybody is going to be
having fun up in the mountains. Did you rent out a cabin again?
Yah, there is a big problem with MySpace usage all over the place. Its been frustrating trying to get missionaries to stop. I thought it seemed just logical that it wouldnt be appropriate to be using it. There is so much vulgarity that is on that site, i guess it wouldnt even be good to use even if you wernt a missionary!
Yah, Brian and I are writing back and forth. He is awesome. I am so stoked to have heard from David. I got his forwarded Email and a letter from him. It sounds like he is having a blast there in Texas.
We are having Thanksgiving at a members home. There is a house of members who are staying around so they can go home longer during christmas, so it should prove to be interesting. I hear the city just dies on thanksgiving. like literaly nobody is around, not even the bums. We will see.
Yesterday (P-Day) was crazy. We were having a zone activity turkey bowl, and somehow it leaked to the entire mission. Missionaries were comming from all over the place (~40) to play. Somebody in the zone must have told everybody else. Well, anyway, They all said they got permission from their ZLs, but i dont think it was approved or past along to Pres. So when Elder Beaver got hurt, it turned sour very quickly. After ambulances, hospitals and phone calls to pres, it is needless to say that it was crazy. To make a long story short, we were running around most of the day trying to sort out the whole mess, and it wasnt even involving members of our zone lol. Oh well. It was pretty crazy.
Well, love ya a ton. Hope everything goes well on thanksgiving. talk to you later!
