Hello there! How are you?! I hope you are doing alright and enjoying life! Thank you for the wonderful letter! I enjoyed it a lot! ( I enjoy every single one of your letters). Well so I thought I could interpret dreams pretty good but I'm going to have to think about that one! Well sorry no pictures again...we moved out all of our stuff today and we were just way busy and so we didn't get to do hardly anything today...so sorry I will get some for next week though that are of our new place! Oh and I'm not quite sure of the exact address of our new place yet so feel free to send mail to the same place, they are just a block away! LOL so Caitlin Brennan is 18 and yep you know I love Pocahontas! Don't you remember me telling you how cute she was during the whole movie? :) So you really think I would address your letter to Shannon Wilcox Clyde?!? Cause that definitely wasn't me! Elder Clyde was very stealthy in writing that on there before we dropped them into the mail box...but see that doesn't even sound good... :) Okay so I have been thinking a lot about the dinner situation when you and your family come out here...I talked to elder Clyde about it and obviously I would have to ask pres. but he said that if I'm working really hard and show pres I am diligent then he might let me go with you there...Now I don't think he would have a problem with just your parents taking me out to dinner and in fact I would love it if they did! I don't want to cut into any of their vacation time though so that is up to them but I love your parents and I would love to see them! You also of course, but we will just have to see how things go....personally I don't think it would be a problem for me because I am very dedicated to the work and nothing is getting in the way of that, but! If it would be hard for you then I wouldn't want you to be there..if that makes sense...hopefully you understand what I'm getting at here! So ya, its crazy to think I've been gone for three months! It definitely doesn't seem like it! I hope ( now don't take this the wrong way) that the rest of it doesn't go by this fast because I have a lot of work to do! :) LoL I like to think of myself as Ammom also! It would be way fun to whack people's arms off! Things have been a little crazy this week but we had a way cool experience with Sandy ( an investigator). She is going through a lot in her life right now and she was very stressed and what not. We went over to her place and we were comforting her and at the same time being very bold with what God would want her to do in her life and so we got talking to her about coming to church and after a while she wasn't responding very well. So we just kept telling her more and I talked to her about Alma 32 where he compares faith to a seed and how if it is a good seed when you plant it, it will grow. Well after a while she says you know I have been to two other christian churches and neither of them worked for me. Elder Clyde said well that's because this is the true church and I said remember the seed we talked about, you planted those and they didn't grow. I then promised her that if she planted this seed that it would grow. We both bore our testimonies to her about church and how it has helped us in our lives and she started crying. She also had a big smile on her face and told us that something weird just happened to me...I feel really happy and I don't understand why. She was like, I feel really good but its a weird good...( a few times before this we talked about the holy ghost and she told us that she had never felt it before). So after she was telling us about this happiness she was feeling I told her that it was the holy ghost that she was feeling. It was so amazing! I love you! Take care and have a good week!
Love, Elder P.

Hey!
hey so whats going on?!?! yes mom i got the crystal light that you sent and i have to tell you THANKS! :D i love that stuff! lol but ya it makes sense for me to just buy it but i couldn't find that kind so thanks! so we got all moved into our new place today! it is so sweet i swear! we are like kings now! i will send pics but along with our new house i got a pet! yep i bet you cant guess what it is.... well its a hobo spider! :D her name is "stuck" (because i caught her in a sticky trap) but we got a 55 gallon aquarium that we put her in! and today we found her 3 more hobo friends... we are hoping she will breed with a black widow ( the guy version) and then they will have little black Wobos :D we caught some grasshoppers to feed stuck and she is really healthy and well off :D but our new place is so sweet! and no i don't think i will get moved because that would mean that they would sweep a way good area which they wont because i know the area and the ward likes me and so elder Clyde thinks that i will get "mom'ed" (they give you a crappy missionary for a transfer and kinda give them a second chance to change...) and then he thinks i will train here and so i could be here for a good 9 months... which would be freaking sweet! well mom i am glad that you got that phone call! her name was Ericka she is only 14 and her mom thinks that we have crushes on her but hrrrrp and so when we call her house we talk to her through her mom on the phone and the only reason we have to call Ericka is because she is fellow shipping one of our investigators... but ya they are way nice and i tried to get her to call you a few days before that cause they were in west Jordan and i wanted you to send some ties home with her for me :D lol but its ok they are a way cool family "The Adkins"... well dad hang in there on your new clubs! it will come... hey so at church this week we had testimony meeting and it was way freaking sweet Willis and Candice Brennan (2 recent converts) bear their testimonies! it was awesome! (just a funny note i looked over just barely and there was a dog humping a cat!!!) LOL!!! holy crap that was funny! oh my goodness! i cant even think now!
