22 More Fast Sunday's left


Dear Family,

            I am terribly sorry that I didn’t write you yesterday. Mom you were probably worried sick after seeing that movie about the missionaries getting kidnapped… That’s probably what you thought happened to me. Isn’t it? Hahah :) but uh my comp and I thought that transfers were this week so that’s why we had P day today and not yesterday but transfers are next week. Which kinda sucks cuz I thought I was one transfer through my mission already, but I still have another week. Hahah whatever. What’s another week? Elder Carder and I both feel that we will stay with each other cuz he leaves to go home on the 19th of December. So mom as much as you would like to, just send me a stocking. Cuz he’ll be outta here… Lucky Duck!! ;) Also Mom uh my question for you is why wouldn’t Elder Carder celebrate Christmas? He isn’t a muslim… he’s Mormon… hahahaahasha Oh my days! Mum I freakin love you!! So next week I won’t write you til Tuesday so brace yourselves for that. Oh and next Tuesday we are going to London :) :) :) Wehe!!!!!!!!!!!!  LONDON BABBBYYY!!

            Everything sounds great back home :) Thanks for all of your letters! I wish I could just sit in the Library and read all them 5 times, because they make me smile and laugh so much! It just makes me so gosh darn happy!! Hey Mom congrats on finishing your real estate license shtuff! That’s awesome! Now you can try to find me a lake house. Preferably in Lake Winnapusaukee. “That’s W-i-n-n-i-p-a-u-s-a-u-k-e-e- that two a’s and two p’s. Alright thanks ladies im crazy about you especially you, Betty. Hahah Oh what about Bob! Talk about a great Video!!!!  But a lake house… Ya, that sure would be nice. Huh Dad what do you say? Talk about real family bonding! We could spend every weekend up there as a family and occasionally bring some friends… Maybe every weekend bring some friends. But hey a family that buys a lake house together, stays together :) hahahaahah so I think it’s a great investment :) but that’s just me. You may have to run it past the family. :) Dang. Look at me still working the system while I am half way around the world. Point for Dayton!! :) And a thousand points for dad if he buys a lake house. :) hahahaha YOOO SHANANU!! Congrats on getting your license!! It looks like Bo-BO is about to start another great journey in his life. Just figure out how to get it into four wheel drive, because remember that one time we couldn’t figure it out on our way to school and we were sliding all over the place?! And that one time we got stuck in the mud with Isabella and Olivia… Yaaa you might want to figure that out. Cuz apparently it is snowing already!! Oh hail Ya!! Hahah see what I did there? Sorry I’m a missionary I shouldn’t have said that. But yes Mom we do receive snow, but it doesn’t happen very often. So maybe just send more socks… like warm socks :) but I feel like you will do a great job of knowing what to send to your favourite son for Christmas!! Haha Now to answer some of your random questions :)

Yes I do receive Spencer’s and Joel’s letters :)

And in all honesty the food is roughly the same here as it is in the U.S. But the only difference is the fact that the food is really bland. For example their “hot” salsa, doesn’t even compare to our mild salsa…. So I hope that answers your question about if the food truly is that bland over here.

Hmmm, Halloween is not big at all over here. I probs saw about 30 people trick or treating… ya. 30. Talk about Losers. (when I say Losers, I mean all of England.) Apparently people are worried about having their kids getting kidnapped and stuff. PSH! Come on… it builds character. Haha Jk But on Halloween we had a trunk or treat at the Ward and there was probably about 5-7 cars and about 25 people and over half were adults supervising. Ha Elder Carder and I didn’t stay long, because we went and helped paint a guy’s kitchen. That was fun :) I would have to say I was the best painter there. Thinking about it I probably should be, since I have painted that dang Warehouse floor about 7 times and painted the ceiling… What the heck dad. Who paints the dang ceiling? :) haha I guess you were just preparing me for my mission. But Dad you can’t use that excuse to keep painting the floors/ ceilings, because nobody else is going to serve a mission haha so good luck trying to persuade people to paint! Hahah (<- Did that make sense? I hope it did… cuz it was pretty funny!) :) LOL

            My week was pretty good. It always goes by super-fast! As of right now we don’t have too many progressing investigators. We are really trying hard to find some, but it’s just a bit slow. Haha But we have so many miracles every single day! It’s absolutely ridiculous. And I think we have so many miracles because we are looking for the miracles… if that makes sense. So I would challenge you guys to look for miracles in your everyday life because you will find them. Im sorry to say but I don’t have much to tell you about this week other than we are really trying to work with the members more so. So please. Please work with the missionaries in our area. Just as Dad did with speaking to the missionaries about Roque’s family. That’s perfect. Keep that up. :) That makes me so happy to see that you guys are trying to be more missionary minded.

            So in my personal study I was reading in Alma 54? Or 55? And it talks about the 2000 stripling warriors and how their mothers prepared them, because they were taught to have faith that God will deliver them out of anything if they had faith. Mom, this is what you’ve done for me. You have been such a great example to me and the rest of the family on how to live our lives. Thank you. You truly make a difference in everybody’s life :) And I challenge you guys to read Alma 26. Holy Moly!! Talk about a great chapter! There are so many great verses in this chapter so hit it up!! :)

            Well I love you guys! There’s not a day I don’t think about you! I love you more than I can express. I hope your week goes better than mine :) I honestly pray for that. That’s how much I love you. I would rather have you guys doing well than me… is that crazy? Maybe a little, but whatever. LLLLOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVEEEEEEEE YYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOUUUUU,

Elder Wright
