Lovely Letter Day!

Well hello there cutie! How are you? I hope you are doing great! Okay, so I have to tell you my story for the week... So I was expecting a letter from you on like Tuesday or Wednesday at least, and every day I would come in at night and there would be no mail...and so I was starting to be like what the heck did it get lost or what...and then finally Thursday night Elder Clyde was like, I wonder if it is a package, because the only packages that get forwarded are USPS ( United States Postal Service) because UPS and Fed-Ex charge to forward things...and so the packages the mission office gets just get taken to the next zone conference. So luckily our zone conference was on Friday and so I got the package there and I was so happy! Then I got home and opened it and was even more happy because it had a tape! And cookies! And pictures! And I was so happy!But no worries, if you send another package UPS just send it to the other address I gave you! Anyways that tape was so awesome! I listen to it almost every night while I am going to bed! I like to hit people with rocks and watch them bleed too!! LOL What a crazy! Kaleb is so cute on there singing "I am a child of God.":) Hey so are you making sure to put the goofy pics of my comp on the blog also? I hope so! I don't know why you stress out so much when you give a talk in church :) You are so cute it is really funny! I know that you nearly died before you got up there and then you did just wonderful :) Oh, tell your mother that it is wonderful that she wants to say something on the tapes! I am fine with it. So I only live about 25 minutes away from Dave and Jane. My area is in Northern Spokane but it is the southern most part of Northern Spokane, if that makes sense. So I know it took me a while but I finally did my first paint job! We painted a bathroom for some less active members! It was pretty fun :) So I got your letter half way through writing this one. We live with members, they are the Brough's (Bruff is how you say it) But we pretty much share everything, and our bedroom is right across the hall from theirs, both upstairs! We share the kitchen and fridge and basically own their dining room table. They are way nice! Okay, so the name of my zone is North Spokane, but the name of my area is River Ridge, which is the ward we cover also. We get fed on Sat, Sun, Mon, Tue, but on Wed, Thur, Fri we cook our own dinner... and yes we have way too much food and we love to eat. No I haven't eaten any gross meals yet, I'm sorry I haven't answered these questions sooner. You can go ahead and do the blog, I think its a great idea :) and your letters are just fabulous! Don't chicken out and not send me the pictures of the grapes! grrr... I can't believe that! I was really looking forward to getting those pictures! Okay so the pictures where you see the bags piled up everywhere I have to tell you that story. We go over to this lady's house and she is an older lady so she lives all by herself. She is getting ready to move and so she wanted to have a yard sale to sell some stuff. So she got a hold of us and told us that she had some Christmas stuff that she wanted us to bring up from the downstairs the day before the yard sale. We said okay, and we went over to her house and she takes us downstairs and we walk into a room that is just full of Christmas stuff and so we are thinking okay, well this will take a few hours. Then she leads us into another room that is even more full, and we are like okay, we are going to be here all day. And THEN she says well lets start in the back room..(room 3) and this room was huge (its the one in the pictures) E. Clyde is standing in the middle of the room, and took a picture of me. All of it is just Christmas stuff! I think she robbed every Michaels in the world for like four years straight! It was the craziest thing I have ever seen! We moved stuff upstairs for like 2 hours and didn't even make a dent. So she tried to sell what she had us bring upstairs. The best part was the whole time we were moving stuff she was telling us ya I used to decorate with this stuff but over the years its all been stolen! LOL Me and E. Clyde just started laughing because it would take a ten man crew about a week to steal all of that stuff! Her name is Marilyn, and she wont go anywhere because she thinks people steal stuff when she leaves the house. Its pretty funny. I'm sorry, but it is. :) Oh and BTW you better believe we made that cake! Cause we did! I pRomise! Hey that would be fine to have Dave and Jane come to my area and bring me something from you and/or take us to dinner :) But really if they would want to I would love to see them! It would be way fun! So I can't believe that James told you about the matrix pictures. I will have to summon someone to kick his trash for me. :) I love you tons! Have a wonderful week! See if you can get someone to write my lonely companion. :) Well I hope you enjoy the pictures! I enjoy yours a lot and I think you should never go a week without sending me them! I love you! Dank ya for the cookies and tape baby! :) I will start a tape soon! Have a good week and take care of yourself!
Love Always Elder RJ
