Hey mama and family,

Things here are going good. Im pretty sad elder davies is going home
though. you gotta make it to his farewell. First priority haha. Its
going to be weird. He is all i know as a zone leader and is like my
best friend so it will be rough but whatever.. Everything there sounds
good. I got your package today, the shirts were a hit, the blanket was
way cool. seriously thanks for that and it was good to hear from you
guys. Send me a pic of mercs mouth now i would love to see it. I bet
its awesome.

It does sound like everyone is a bit stressed out there. Everything
will be alright. Remember your favorite saying mom, "its all good".
Nothing really is that bad. Grandma and grandpa dont sound like they
are doing to hot.... give them blessings haha. thats my only answer
for that one. Your calling sounds tough and stressful but there is a
reason your in it. Keep up the good work.

Nothing to exciting happened here at all this last week. All we had was
zone conference which was way cool. We were asked to write talks on
the docterine of christ and 2 missionaries would be called to give
them, guess what, of course i got called on. Elder williams the one i
came out with and me both had to do it. IT was easy and it went good
but still not very fun. Thanks pres for that one haha. It was a way
good conference though and i learned a lot. It is always fun to see
everyone though. I love president and sister dalton. they are the
best. Funny story that honestly killed me and elder davies was he was
talking to us on the side about how the zone is doing and stuff and
sister dalton came up and said they had to go so they didnt miss there
flight and he said ok and was walking off and smacked her butt, i was
shocked haha. it was so funny though. he turned around and said you
two didnt see that and laughed. it was funny haha but i forget he is
just a normal dude still.... so ya it was fun.

We are almost finished tiling, im pretty good at using the tile saw
now and really appreciate the tile dad did all those times because
quite honestly it sucks. i also have framed in two walls for his
bathroom so i need to write curt and tell him his class wasnt a
complete waste of time haha. Ill take a picture soon and send it so
you can see how big it is....

Well thats about all for this week. It was good but im ready to move
on i think. You start to realize that there is only so much you can do
when you start re visiting all the Partmember and less actives over
again haha. Well i love you and pray for you every night.


love elder allen
