hey fam,

hows everything goin?? good here! i got the G's you sent me, i haven't worn them yet but you got the correct kind, amount, and size! so good job! i am loving those packages you send to me! i have so many treats i dont know what to do with them!! well if you are going to continue to send them regardless, i might as well tell you what i prefer. i could use a FUZE or two! strawberry banana flavor, dad know whats the best! DAD i could also use a sushi roll or two, those are all i crave right now!!!!!!!! im gonna pound that when i get home thats all i know. um chips are good, i love salsa verde doritos. um that will hold me over for this week i think. i can't yet pick out what i crave because i am getting fed so well so i will let you know. grandma sent me a package with some way good treats! i gave some of them to the district presidency last night and they loved them. dont worry i am going to send grandma a thank you note. thats crazy about bishop and that he told everyone about garrett. thats also awesome about the blog! that makes it a little easier on me that everyone in the fam can get updates and stuff without me having to send a quadrillion letters. i am going to send a package soon with the memory card in it because its just ridiculous the wait that it is to get pictures developed. Mom if you could send me some copies of the pictures you think are the best that would be awesome. i just wanna send some to my friends and stuff. i hope you like the pics they are crazy. mom thanks for the henley shirt thing but its kinda too tight and i dont wanna show off my guns that much so i am sending it home ok? the blanket you send works like a charm thank you! momma knows best. im proud of you guys for committing to read the bom everyday as a family, even saturdays! that is definately a challenge that will be hard to accomplish but i know you can do it. even if its for 5 minutes sometimes. The language is awesome! Un de mi favoritos cosas aqui es la comida y el Espiritu Santo yo sentio. Mi testimonio es muy grande ahora. me amo cuando el general autoridades hablar a ustedes en jueves. see if you can figure that out.

Well cool news, Gerald Lund spoke yesterday and it was so awesome!!!! He talked about the miracle of the book of mormon and how its impossible that it isn't true. He went into EXTREME details about everything but he basically said how (if it wasn't true) how could joseph know the hebrew grammar to write in and the geographical features etc. he told some amazing facts about gold and how gold was such a perfect choice to write the plates on. he gave a lot of stats about the scriptures and i dont know exact numbers but its was like there are 6000 verses in the bom and 3900 have a reference to christ in them!! crazy huh? well i have so much more written down on the talk i'll have to show you.

jb sent the package with an alarm clock which is working awesome and a package of kettle corn, and a pair of insect repellant socks! cause he had problems with fleas is what he told me. so that is cool. Dad i heard that jazz just won last night thats pretty sick! so 2 wins right? thats sweet about the trevor immelman guy. So floyd gave me a crotch lick? thanks man, give him a big grape tomatoe for me ok? i am glad he is doin a little better. i miss that k9. i have definately met some cool people here and i think i will be friends with some of my roomies when i get home. my teacher hermano cameron is getting transferred and is not our teacher anymore. i am so ticked he was amazing! he is one of my heros here in the mtc. but i will still be able to see him so thats ok. i will definately write him cause he has helped me so much. he is my defintion of meek. he is an awesome guy. That was a funny joke dad, keep them comin.

well i am running out of time but keep sending the letters and jokes. check out marcus and londons letters for some more deets. i dont remember if i told you this or not but my branch president laughs so funny. he laughs like he is trying to hold back a major cough or trying to squeeze out a poop. its hilarious he just goes hughhhhhh. its so funny! well i gotta go say hi to everyone for me. peaceout fam elder peterson
