A Nice Little Letter and Some Pictures

Cute little doggie

Isn't he cute?!

Eat some hay scar face!

Well hello there !

How are you doing? How was Park City? I am so jealous that you got to hang out with Izzy and Piper! I hope you had a wonderful time with them. Tell Dave and Jane to come take me to dinner some time, I would absolutely love that! Well, don't TELL them to, but tell them that if they would like to they absolutely can! So on the 4th there was a big missionary get together in E. Clyde's old area and so we went to that and there was about 40 or so missionaries there and we had a basketball tourney in which we split off in teams of 4v4 and played. Of course we ended up winning the entire thing! :) It was so fun and then we went over to some members house and they fed us hot dogs and hanburgers! After that we went and visited a bunch of people that E. Clyde hadn't seen in a while. So we ended up in Airway Heights, which is a white trash town to be nice. Well anything goes there as far as fireworks! So its a pretty amazing show from about 8 until 1 in the morning I guess thats when they stop LOL its nuts. I've never seen so many fireworks and drunk people in my life! :) But we got to see a few fireworks, not too many since we had to be in by 10, but it was really fun. Those glasses you got me are really freaking awesome, but when it is really dark and you turn them on you can't see anything because its too bright. I swear it would "burn you blind" if you left them on too long! :) I'm glad that you don't get so nervous about playing the piano in primary I mean it would have to be easier around people of your same height! :) HE HE :) Well I'm just kidding LOL! I missed taylorsville days so bad it almost killed me! The thought of us cuddling on a blanket while ash was falling in our faces just made me miss it so bad! Well I'm going to have to tell you even though I don't really want to because you will use it against me later that your hair short is pretty freaking cute! :) I love you no matter what! You'd look great bald! But I really do like it short! :) Okay, so about the music for my blog, I want you to put some rap or hip hop on there that reminds you of me! Like "Goodies" that we listened to on the way to and from that region dance in my bro's truck! :) Well I haven't gained any weight thank goodness! Cause I eat 10 times more but we bike a lot and especially up a nice big hill most mornings! But no, I'm still 210 :) I do appreciate you being worried about my safety :) even though most crazy people here are meth heads and you can just knock them over. They are weak sause :) LOL No but I am in a good area with no reason to worry! Worrying is a branch off of fear and God is not the author of fear and so everytime you worry just read your scrips and say a prayer and you will kow that I am ok! I do develop my pics also at Walmart so I am a regular too! Its funny everywhere we go people think we work there :) This morning at Walmart 3 different people asked us where stuff was as if we worked there, so we told them. We do what we can :) I hope you like the pics, I didn't take many this week, in fact the horse one I took while bailing hay. Anyways, thank you so much for the package, I hope you stay obsessed with sending me stuff! :) I love you so much and hope everything is going good for you! Remember I love you! If you have any spiritual/gospel/scripture or whatever type questions for me, feel free to ask and I will study them out! I do want you to know that I have used Mosiah 2:41 in my teaching and I love that scripture! :) Take care! I love you!

Love, Elder Ryan John
