Mom,
I'm glad you are enjoying my letters! It is REALLY beautiful  here!! I forgot to bring my chord for my camera with me today so I wont  be able to send home pictures this week! I want you to send me some  pictures though! My art pictures that are on facebook I would like to  show people. They all want to see my artwork! 
Thats cool that  Dalton is going to the phillippines! There are a lot of phillipinos  here. They love  americans and are really really cool. From what I hear, everything  there is pretty american. They have to pay for their beaches though!  Weird! 
Keep hanging in there at work. The harder you work the  more you feel success and blessings. I know that the Lord will bless you  in everything you do and will strengthen you to overcome anything in  your way. All you have to do is ask for help. If you get too bored you  could try playing age of empires or something! hahahah bet you're  getting pretty good at solitaire though!
Bummer about the house  situation! I know they'll get an awesome place though. No biggie. The  Lord will definitely get their back and help them to start a family of  which he is super happy to see form. The family unit is such a blessing  to have from our Heavenly Father and is how we can receive most of our  strength and comfort. I'm sure you already know that though! You have  created so many lives and families and good people with  Dad. Just reading you talk about Makayla, Grant and Lydia is so fun!  They are so dang cute! 
That's bad what happened to Terrie! It's  such a miracle that the Fed Ex guy came to her aid. If there was ever  evidence of miracles, that is some proof right there. Miracles happen  every single day. I will pray for her.
Speaking of dinners, Elder  Russell and I are quite the dynamic duo in the Kitchen! We make some  mean sandwiches and stuff! Every wednesday morning is pancake day and we  certainly stack it up! I've had really good use of my apron too!  Everyone is jealous of it! hahaha 
Dad, 
The week has  been really good! I don't have my planner with me so I can't remember  like anything i've done this week! I cant remember if some things I've  done were weeks ago or hours ago! The way time flows is completely  skewed! All I know is that this week has been really busy and really  fun! and next week will be even more busy and even  more fun!! I haven't seen any roos yet but I have seen some pretty cool  birds, one cockroach, and some really huge ants! and REALLY huge  spiders!!!! I want to see a roo really badly though. I already have a  kangaroo coin pouch though. It works great! 
Two farewells in one  ward?? Holy cow! That must have been really packed eh?? Sounds like a  really spiritually packed meeting. My testimony on both of those things  that they talked about are becoming constantly stronger day by day. The  ABC's of the Australia Sydney mission are: (A)tonement centered,  (B)aptism focused, (C)onstantly Improving. 
I'm not really  familiar with Sherem but I want to study to find out more! As for the  rope lesson I really like it and will probably use it soon! 
That's  really reallly really disturbing what Josh Powell did. He just proved  everyone right too. Did he hurt anyone else with the explosion? That's  pretty messed up but I'm really excited to hear  about the olympics maybe coming to Utah again! I would be 30 years  old!!! WOW! Probably bringing my kids to see the bobsled.............  weridddddddddddd!
Well I'm going to go round house kick some punching bags now. Till next week! 
Love Elder Thompson!
