That is so awesome about cam and syd. I hope they had such a great time and remembered every moment. The location does look pretty sweet. i think its almost impossible to have a perfect wedding where everything is planned right, but it was good at least you got to catch up with everyone and be together as a fam. 

hahaha erik "just fat" thats funny. im sure they felt lots of joy being able to share that news with everyone. 

i miss the dogs! i miss good dogs, cute dogs, not loud dogs....hahah i hate dogs here mom. I will talk more about it on skype but they are soooo bad here and so annoying. so i hope to come home and adore the pups at home. 

i loved the pics! im happy we have a facebook page where they can share that kind of stuff. zone conferences are seriously my favorite days and its so good to see other missionaries that are in the same game as you. Like it said in the letter, theres no way i would be doing any of this without you and dad and the way you raised me! Even if i never get another leadership opportunity on the mission i want to strive every day to be better and better and help more people than the day before. 

glad you guys are landing and i get to talk to you today!!

So i received a "personal money order" from john something for christmas. i wanna say conkling but i forgot. I took a pic i can send to you. but i have no idea what to do with it. i dont trust mailing anything now to you cause my letters still arent freaking there!! i think its time to accept that they were lost😔😒 but what can i do with it? its 20 bucks so im definitely not trying to lose it. 

also im having to pay 15 reais to get my package that you sent cause it was stopped in sao paulo. it sucks but whatever. i 
should get it next zone conference i think. idk when that will be but probably the next week or two

do you remember why you put down numbers 20-21 on that bible to read list? i didnt really understand too much what it was talking about. it talked about the brass serpant or whatever which i remember hearing but thats it.

Did you see that parker was in the state of sao paulo in campinas?!?!?! he was literally like an hour and 15 mins away in a car. I wanted to see him so bad but he didnt even get my number to call me!!!! hahah that would have been so dope.

love you momma!

I will go to Jardim Simos and be with an elder I dont know. I will be the senior companion which is really cool. Hes a brazilian, just finished his traning, and has about only 3 months on the mission. Im so glad and relieved. i was just ready to leave aguiar. he is just a difficult person sometimes.  love you mom.  yeah that sounds really difficult and probably something that would be really hard to do at the mission office haha. ok thank you for looking it up.  I love you so freaking much mom! You are my hero! Sorry that it has to be all annoying like this. I will defini...

Good morning my sweet boy! How was your week? I’m hoping there were some baptisms and the people followed through on their commitments:) Did you love conference? One of my favorite things about it was how I knew we were sitting there doing the exact same thing at the same time! That was comforting to me. I absolutely loved it! If you didn’t get a chance to watch the women’s broadcast you should try. I will send you an Ensign conference edition when it gets here so you can read all the talks again and study them. I feel like I received many personal messages from the talks. So many of them focused on our ability to stay faithful and receive comfort during trials... not one minute of our suffering is wasted. It is all for our good and our growth. That was one of the messages that I took away and feel strengthened by.  I also felt a recommitment to strengthening my conversion. That also seemed to be a theme of conference. Are we living the gospel by going through the motions and check...

Hey buddy!    I’m glad I finally get a chance to sit down and write. Baby stuff has taken over my life but we are very excited to have Harper with us in the next few weeks. Excited for you to meet your new little cousin when you return. Sounds like you are doing really well! I know you’ve had minor struggles and home sickness along the way, but it’s good to see you pumped and positive. Sounds like you’re doing a great job!     Hey listen, I know everyone has chimed in on the girl situation and you’re probably tired of talking about it at this point, but I wanted to try to talk to you about it as well because I’ve had the unwelcome pleasure of going through 3 life changing heart breaks that I never thought I’d recover from so I can speak to you from experience and hopefully put some perspective on things.     I had been with Alicia for 5 years, we were in love but it was more than that. It was how the family loved her, how much I loved her family and ...
