Loving Temecula


Family!

  THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE LETTERS! I was CRACKING UP. Thompson humor hahaha. Ohhh good times..someone crack a joke. Anyways. Serious though. Holy cow Busy at home huh? Mom thanks for the e-prep package! By the way mom i have to tell you...i eat all kinds of Ryan's mashed potatoes from "banquet" frozen food! hahahaha I just had to tell you i eat it all the time. I bought around 9 boxes of the frozen dinners today. And you have been right all along! Almonds are great! I now am starting to eat alot more almonds and nuts because they are slower carbs or something like that and i feel aLOT better! kind of balanced. Ohh my family...good stuff good jokes. Is the Shitzu you were talking about teddy? i shall write everyone back because i just bought some envelopes   It was so nice to hear from you all! GREAT birthday present one of the best!  Oh ya and mom tell Deanna i got the EMPower and thanks for it!!! and the letter!

The missionaries in the apartment are awesome!! But anyways, they also have these cookies here called Maria's that i got 2 for 3 dollars! It was a GREAT week! Soo many great things and miracles happening here in Temecula! we just got a new Elder in the apartment who is right out of the MTC. Also the members are still running strong! We are teaching a lady from a Part member Less Active family who pretty much has stopped drinking coffee altogether! She is legit! Thats a miracle! She was born the same day i was and is now getting baptized the same day i was! And her son reminds me of Ethan and she kind of reminds me of Chantelle...for some reason i cant quite put my finger on because she is nothing like Chantelle ha ha  Pre-mortal plans!  Great things are happening here! They are awesome! It is amazing. The members give referrals pretty good and this ward is full of awesome member missionaries!  And thanks everyone for all the birthday packages!! That was sooo nice of you! I will write back!  We usually have at least one member lesson a night so that is pretty cool! Last night me and my companion had to go back to our apartment for something (his diabetes thing, we rarely go back to the apt. and we live 2 mile outside our area) And just as we got in there we saw that the other companionship was at the apartment also. Anyways the new companion had an allergic reaction to some pie that he ate to be nice and needed a blessing. And we all just happened to be there at 8 o'clock on a Monday night and were able to give him a blessing. The lord puts us where he wants us all the time, and we don't even realize it. That is where he needed us last night and we went. Have a good week!

Oh, tell Jordan good luck with everything and that he should check out some new Jericho Road CD's. Oh ya and Jordan..I had the most AMAZING burger yesterday that i have EVER had in my whole life! It was amazing! it was from this lady who is sooo nice and a little less active but anyways she also cook like she is from SC. BUT this is what she did and it was amazing i mean it was perfect with all the juices and amazing. She just took regular meat and then i scoop of cheddar shredded chess and mixed it together. But then...she put BBQ sauce and mixed it all together and formed a patty! and it looked like a regular patty and tasted amazing! The juices stayed inside and gave it a perfect not to BBQ is taste! 10 out of 10. 

And tell dad GREAT job on the Tulips! 

And Zachary ..NICE! 3 miles everyday!! THAT IS HEALTHY!!! Go run a 5k anyways if mom lets you! We run like 2.2 or so miles each morning so nice! Keep it up!

And Brianna: I am glad you made a blanket! .

Chantelle: Thanks for all the letters!!!
