Elder Penman and Elder Clyde's Last Week Together

Well hello there! Whats happenin? Oh man I wish I could have been there with ya for that Red Hat fashion show! LOL you know they should get one of the old guys and give him a red suit and a red hat and a white fur cape and a cane and call him "king!" :) That was a very cute picture that you sent me though! I loved it. Sorry that I haven't been myself lately. Elder Clyde has just been winding down towards the end and its really been tough! But don't worry I talked to the mish pres. and he understands and so its not a big deal I will just stay as focused as I can and when I get a new comp I will freaking work him to death, and then they will get me a new one and the same thing. Dead! :) So our power went out last night and so my alarm never went off! I slept until like 9:15! oops! LOL It was kind of nice but then again I need to study study study! Oh well I'm not complaining :) I am pretty nervous to find out who my next comp is going to be... I will know on Saturday and then Elder Clyde will go into the mission home (in the valley) half way through church and then he will fly home Monday morning and I will take one of the priests with me and work them to death Sunday night and Monday night and then I will get my new companion on Tuesday. It sounds like you had tons of fun at that Emerson Drive concert! lol wow those girls are pretty much shot out of their minds...:) well I wish I could have been there to hang out with your grandparents but if I was there your grandpa would have told me to get my butt on my mission so I can get back and marry you before you marry someone else... LOL. So its a good thing I wasn't there :) Don't worry about you coming to dinner with me, I completely understand! But I hope your parents still want to go! I just want to hear your dad say "have a good mission!" :) Elder Clyde cant decide if he wants a ride or not...he said just leave it up in the air...hrrrrrrp. I told him just to come up but...who knows. So as you can see our duplex is awesome! Take those pics and times them by 2 cause its the same on both sides... and both sides are ours! Pretty sweet huh! No other elders are living with us because its too far out of their areas. So its just the two of us :) But we get taken care of for dinners and no the Broughs didn't feed us that much, maybe some breakfast every now and then... the ward wouldn't let them sign up on the dinner calendar. Oh and by the way you can never go over board on packages :) We are teaching about a dozen people at the moment. We have a list of I think 77 potential investigators... So yeah we stay pretty busy. Elder Clyde wrote Chelsea Hightower but she never wrote back :( Out of the 5 investigator families we had a few weeks ago, we are still in contact with about 3 of them. Yes disc golf is "folf" (Frisbee golf). So sweet, I didn't know that you had ever played that before! That's way cool! I will start driving the car after I get a new comp. They only let one of you be on the insurance at a time. PLEASE send me another tape :) I cant wait to hear your voice again! I love you! Thanks for pushing me to go on a mission! I could never repay you for helping me and supporting me in this decision. :) I can't wait to hear from you!
Love, Elder Ryan John
