Mom,


FIRST, before i forget:
1) Thanks for the package. i think it was probably from Dad? why? because a giant bag of peanut M&Ms... i dont know. Thanks!!
2) Did you get the pictures and CDs i set home? AND, Did that package with my books ever get home? let me know, i insured it if it didnt.


It sounds like Father's Day was fun! We spent it at the Bentalls. A great family. It was fun, and productive!!


Im glad chelsea went to the YSA ward! it sounds like shes just jumping right back into things!! thats important. do i know the Brandenbergs? do i know Rene? im not sure! the ward must be very different now, i can only imagine.


Things are going well here. I will find out tommorow night if im getting transfered. Things are going by quickly for me. Im still with Housholder. Things are good. I found out that Scott (from cambridge) is now fully active, has been to the temple for baptisms, has a calling, and is preparing to get his PhD so he can become a professors (maybe at BYU i think). Im excited!! the program that i worked with him at has also exploded. he just got a 45,000$ grant to expand it. Its been a hit!


Raquetball court was flooded, so no more of that. But we play soccer and frisbee at the church, its fun! the training is going well. Ive maxed push-ups, sit-ups, and almost pull-ups. my basketball throw is at 87 feet (102ft max). and i havnt had the time to work on my shuttle-runs and mile run. Its tough with only 30 minutes, and p-days! and even then I cant force my comp to do stuff that he doesnt want to do.


I love you and miss you. ill let you know about x-fers ASAP.


Love,
Elder Onken
