Hello Missy! Thank for the great Emails!! WEll all is well here in Riverside! Its a tuff job being a missionary every now and then, because sometimes you see soo much good, and success, that you hope lasts forever, and then you get Transferred... No bueno. I love it here, but after much hard work and Diligence, you expect success, and you don't see it. Its all good though no effort is ever wasted!
I am super glad to hear that Parker Is being a Great Scout extraordinaire! I always knew he believed in those Eagle Egg Powers! you just need to be patient and wait till the egg hatches. silly Nacho Libre. He might just need them Eagle scout skillz to help his awesome Bully exterminatin skillz. He is going to Junior High that is crazy. I cant believe how quick my little pal is growing up. He isnt little anymore pretty soon here he might be taller than Me! :O Grace, Kate, and Emily will be quite the Trio. We thought just Grace was a ball of silly unique Energy.. with Kate, and Emily tagging along those Butler girls are going to be well known.
Well i need to get going soon sadly. i will have to write you more next week hopefully. thanks for all of your neat Crafty Bloggin skillz. i really do appreciate it very much.

Hi Elder Pee-Weed,
Yeah. Sending me the pics is great! That way I can get them in your book for when you come home. Your pops isn't the most tech savey guy. It might be best to keep 'em coming my way.
Sounds like the mish is treating you well! Congratulations on the baptisms and in leaving behind a "gold mine." You must be staying very close to the spirit to experience so much success. I am so proud of you. Thank you for such an awesome example to Parker. He is working very hard to live his life in a righteous way. He admires you and how you prepared for your mission. He is trying to prepare himself by getting his Eagle and is passing off merit badges right and left.
Since you almost laughed your name tag off with the jokes, here's a couple more...
How many missionaries does it take to change a light bulb?
Seven. One to teach a workshop on light bulb changing. One to change the light bulb. One to take pictures and write the newsletter for the supporting churches back home. And four administrators to send emails asking for reports.
A young Mormon was on his mission, carrying the Book of Mormon in his coat pocket when he was shot by an armed robber. Fortunately, the bullet lodged in the book and saved him. "See," the missionary said to his companion, "that bullet couldn't get through Second Nephi either.
Two elders were tracting in deepest Africa when they came across a large lion. The elders began to run. The slower of the two realized that he would not be able to out run the lion, he droped to his knees and prayed for heavenly father to convert the lion. When he open his eyes he saw the lion on his knees also and heard him say Father in heaven please bless this food I am about to consume.
An LDS missionary was an enthusiastic but not very capable cook. One day his companion saw that he was close to tears. " Elder, what's wrong? Did you get a 'Dear John' today?" Worse! I made a meatloaf for our dinner, but our landlady's cat ate it.!" "Don't take it so hard, elder. We'll buy her another cat."
Hugs and prayers,
Missy
