Hey family!
Hello from Atlantis! Yeah, it's basically underwater here. Or at least, it feels like that sometimes. We got a lot of rain last week, more than I've ever seen in my life, and it's supposed to rain a lot this week too. I really like the rain too, except it puts almost everyone else in a bad mood. It rained so much that they moved our mission conference to this week instead, so I'll let you know how that goes. It seems like it'll be way fun, and I'm excited to be there and get pumped up about missionary work and see all my missionary friends.
     The family that we are mainly working with is having some problems still. I think I told you about them, but I'll just give a recap. The wife's family is hardcore Protestant, and they basically attacked her at a family party, so she's pretty down right now. We don't know how hard to push her, but we're afraid that if we don't, then nothing will happen, you know? But i feel like everything will be ok.
     That's sweet that Dan Gomez's barbecue went well. How did all the other parties go?  Dad, it's ok that you miss writing to me sometimes, I know you're busy providing for the family and working your tail off like you always have. Thanks for showing me a good example there. That's so cool that you got ol' Too Slow {a really old snowmobile his Dad acquired}to work out, that'll be way fun. Just don't run it into a tree or something before I get back next winter. :D That's interesting about all my friends' love lives, it's weird how the world just passes me by out here. I'm ok with it though, it's kind of nice not having to worry about girls for two years. You don't have to worry about me marrying a Korean, I can barely understand Americans. :D.
     Thanks for being such an amazing support to me. You can't build a good building without a solid foundation, and between you and Christ I'm on bedrock. :D I love you all, I hope you have fun in Flaming Gorge or Albuquerque or wherever you go, and I love you !!
