August 23, 2010 - to Keira

Hey Shakeira long time no email. i am so sorry i get caught up in everything on pdays its crazy so much going on. I need to learn how to kick back, relax and just email. Well whats the latest news? how are things going? how is the Logan move going? how is your work situation? I really hope everything goes well for you! im trying to work extra hard out here so the family can be blessed. Can you believe i have almost been out for 6 months! its approaching so fast. that is a quarter of my mission already gone by. :0. As far as the work is going im still loving it!! We have got 3 people on baptisimal date right now, and hopefully the can keep their commitments. Im still enjoying the biking for sure! although its finally realllly heating up! I really to feel blessed on the mission right now. Yesterday i was able to speak in sacrament meeting with my companion! we did great. afterwards i was able to confer the Aaronic Priesthood to Jeffrey Mann my first baptism. The work is very exhausting with all the heat, but im learning to enjoy every moment of the mission. I really think that one of my best Christlike attributes is Patience, which i seem use alot out here. I still am having a blast with my 2nd comp Elder Stevens, and i really know that by the work i am doing out on my mission is blessing the entire family back home. So how is Red doing? i hope she can really pick up on school work. Hey could you let red know to check her emails, and write me back, and update my Facebook profile pic. I also would like her to email me all the friends that have tried to add me on facebook so i can tell her which friends i would like her to accept. Well tell Matt i say hi. i g2g, but i hope you know i always love you. can wait to chill with you when i get back, and you better start getting dates lined up for me. haha jk love you

It's ok that you are busy, I was going to write you again but I am super busy too. I found a good place to live that is cheap it is only 217 a month plus like 30-40 for utilities. And I just walk down the hill and matt's place is on the bottom like one minute away. So that is cool we'll be really close. I am so glad things are going well I cried for some reason when I read your letter, the spirit was strong I am so proud I could feel how well you are doing and how much heavenly father and I appreciate you. I most definately think you have a lot of patience, I think you are most like dad, which as you know is a huge compliment. I hope to be more like him someday. I get frustrated with him sometime but I can't beleive what an amazing man dad is, he truly is one of the most christ like person I know. I am so glad that you have baptisms set up and were able to give that guy the priesthood. I could not imagine how amazing it would feel to give someone the blessing of the gospel because it means so much to me. I had an interview yesterday with an elementary school, it seemed to go well and the principal said maybe I could work in resource too which would be cool because that is what I am going to school for. So if it's right hopefully I will get the job. Red seems to be doing real well. She is a little better although I still kinda struggle with her because her and kay are so close she is sometimes doesn't want anything to do with me which is hard when we used to be so close. Plus I gotta let you know matt and I have actually bought a ring and I am pretty positive that he is going to prupose this week before we move to logan. So YAY, I never thought I would find someone who treated me the way he does and I am happier than I think I ever have been. But, it's hard been trying to do stuff with red cause I am leaving and then getting married so it's sad to think we won't have time like we do now. And don't worry I already told my friend sally jensen that her daughter I taught in cheer has to go out with you when you get back. :0 So I will look for girls good enough for you. Well sorry this was long, I will e-mail you again this week when matt and I are officially engaged and let you know the details. But, we might put a life size picture of you at our wedding. Ha ha. Well I love you so much, you being gone has made me realized how close I feel to you, I really feel like you were my best bud for a long time and I never realized it. Keep being awesome bro! Love ya. Keira


Ok so I know I just wrote you these will be long letters. But I am officially engaged now!! WOW can you believe it? So we are getting married the beginning of December. I wanted to make sure that you knew for sure I won't write long cause you will have overload, lol. I love you brother!!
