Hello Ma.

How are things? It's crazy that I've been out for three months, it feels like it's been about one.

That's crazy that Chris leaves so soon, and that's terrible that they change the drop off, you're right, that would be really hollow.

I can't believe missionaries got the swine flu. Whats the latest on that stuff anyway?

I e-mailed Cameron about meeting Steve Tate, but he hasn't written back. That kid!! Take a leaf out of 'Home Movies' and "punch his butt"! What are we going to to with that untamed bachelor!

Elder Bednar came this past weekend and it was awesome. Since I'm in this Stake, I got to be at the Missionary training meeting and all the sessions of conference. I couldn't get his picture, but I got to shake his hand a couple times. The craziest part was when we had a recent convert/investigator meeting and there was just a little over 30 of us in the relief society room with him and a member of the 70. It was awesome, I'll probably never have that experience again.

I hope everything goes well with your mom.

Sorry I haven't written about the blog, I really haven't had a chance to talk to my President about it yet, but I will as soon as I can. Or I'll check it with a Zone Leader.

As far as the package, there's not much about the baptism to celebrate anymore because she was binge drinking two days after the confirmation, even thought they said they didn't drink. Kinda frustrating, but we'll keep working with them.

That's funny that all these birds are making nests in the yard, we never had any the first couple years and then in the past couple, its been all the time.

I thinks we're allowed to go fishing, but since my district is lame I probably wont be able to for a while.

I heard Nila is still sneaking upstairs when it storms. Shes the biggest wuss, ha ha.

Well, that's all I got for now, I'll tell you more about the Bednar talks in my letter. Hope everything is well.

Much love, Elder Waters
