Hey Mama,

Did you get my ipod i sent????My week has been great! So busy and general conference was great! Its so crazy how much general conference is on a mission! I can understand everything they are talking about and i can under stand all the big works lol. It’s great! I got the pics!!!! Thanks so much it made my week and then a package o my lanta! It was like x mas. Grandpa sent me some pics to and i got 3 letters this week it was great! I everything you sent me had something important about it. It was kinda funny.

I will keep praying for grandma and grandpa. Maybe i could get a phone call in! We will have to see. I hope things start going better for them. Idk what the heck could be wrong. She should go see some doctors out side of Burley. I will keep praying!

Why is he getting rid of Nellie and getting that? Is Nellie still running good? Get rid of pimpy!!!! It’s so ugly!!! This is probably the only instance i will vote to keep Nellie. Lol well i got to go time is short lol. Have a great week.

Love Twark

Hey Dad

 Wasn't conference great!!!! President Monson cracks me up!!! Its crazy how different conference is on a mission! I can actually understand all the big words and i know what they are talking about! It’s crazy! I didn't even fall asleep! It was way better than i thought it was gonna be.  I loved how one of the speakers said a mission isn't the best 2 years OF your life; he said it’s the best 2 years FOR your life! Isn't that true. I figured a mission wasn't gonna be fun but I knew it would be good for me. I didn't realize that you are in kinda the same boat! Lol but its true! But I think with time I will get use to it. Its just part of growing up I guess.

We had a couple inv. come to conference but not as many as we wanted. We have 7 inv. but only 3 came. Some of them said they were watching at home but idk about that. I will think of something that will motivate everyone but idk what yet. I think if y'all read the Preach my gospel it would help. Its just so great! It explains the who what and the why of everything and has great scriptures in it. So i will work on something! I loved the pics!!!! And everything looks just as zesty as when I left it lol, but holy cow the time goes fast and before long I will be back home, the new tires look sweet! Ya you don't want them to get worn down. How has mom been handling the new job? Well sounds like the same ole same ole. Let me know how the hunting goes! You might want to get in a bunker when pee wee starts shooting at a moving target! Lol well thanks for all you do. Y'all in my prayers every night, morning, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and every other countless prayer I say through the day.

Have a great week

Love ya dad

Hey dad,

I have been doing great. Yorktown is great. I have some fishing spots I am looking forward to trying out. IDK how it will turn out! LOL We have two people set for baptism here and there should be two more by the end of the week if things go as planned.

The Gospel Principles is a good book but it's not the one I am talking about. The one I am talking about is called the Preach My Gospel. It's what I use to teach my investigators. it's so much more detailed and has scriptures galor to look up. It's great! Have mom hook you up than both of you read it. maybe even have Pee Wee look at it. It puts things in English words and easy to understand.

I am excited to get your pics, they should be getting here soon. I sent some stuff home today so if you don't get it by Wednesday let me know, its insured.

I hope hunting for Pee Wee works out. Hopefully, she will have some time to go with you. She is a busy little toaster.She cracks me up, she is so good at anything she does if she tries. I would love to see a video of her shooting her first deer, lol. I still remember my first deer. I was like a woodpecker on a log, lol. It was so funny. I don't think it has changed much, lol. I am sure the dogs love being out in the hay with you. It kills me, Dexter gets out when your out there but doesn't when your not, dumb dog. How big is the four wheeler, I don't remember it much. Oh, that's pretty quick for Pee Wee to do anything 40 sec. that's great. She could probably shoot me.

I hope the hay season went well. Are you getting four crops? We didn't have to move water much earlier this year but I'm sure things have dried out with all the heat. It sounds like Jake got hurt by the horse, that would hurt like crazy to have a horse land your thigh.

Sounds like your hunt will be fun. Too bad I couldn't be there, but I am in the right place. I have learned so much but I am not gonna lie it is hard. I miss being on my own and feeling like I am being judged on my every move. I am learning patience and lots of them. It is good for me that's what I keep telling myself.

Well Pops, I hope all is well on the home front. I love you and miss ya. Good luck hunting, go get em.
Love,
Twark

Hey Mom,

Monticello was great, I sent some stuff home about it and Darden School of Business is where we had institute every Wednesday. It’s really nice!!!! I’m gonna go there after the mish, JK. I can’t leave you again. We haven’t done any cleaning up here because it did not get hit too hard, it missed Yorktown. Me and Elder Sevy get along well. I am not going to lie a mission is hard, but I have learned so much! So, I guess it’s good. Well, I know it is because I can see how much I have grown in such a short time. It’s a love hate relationship for sure. I bought a trunk and some $1 ties at the Good Will. I needed a trunk to put my fishing stuff, lamp and bedding in. I was full in my other bags. Sounds like work has been keeping you busy. Has it been nice having that extra income? Pee Wee has been keeping y'all busy too I see. It will be nice when she can drive, lol. I’m excited to get those pics. I can only imagine what dad took pics of. Probably the fridge and all of the food, the nice big t.v. lol. It sounds like Kambrie is quite the dead eye; she will be able to make hunting work. There is always time to hunt. The dishtowel incident!!! I'm not surprised one bit. She likes to hoard every ones stuff in her room and you can’t find anything. I bet my closet will be empty when I get home. But ya I believe she had everyone of the towels in there. She probably never even thought about them either. She is a little brat, JK LOL!

For conference we have to go to the church and watch it. We will have like 6 investigators there so it should be fun. We have a couple set for baptism. We gave them a blessing yesterday so they wouldn’t struggle with the word of wisdom anymore. That is too bad about Chrissy, I am sure it was a sad day. Grandma and Grandpa haven’t changed I can tell, lol. They crack me up.

Well, mom I appreciate all you do for me you’re a big help. I would do more if I could but I’m under surveillance, LOL. I hate feeling like a caged rat. I rely on someone to give me money for food. I can only eat at certain times of the day. I feel helpless sometimes. I guess it’s teaching me to be humble too. I;m too much like dad, I want to do my own thing and not be told what to do. But thanks for helping me you’re the best mom ever. That’s why I’m gonna love you forever, like you for always as long as I’m living my mom you will be. And the best part about the gospel is you will be my mom forever. Thanks.

Love,

Twark

Hey Mom

My week has been great. Monticello was great. I’m sending some stuff from that home today so you can see. I’m gonna write y'all a letter so you have something to look forward to. I would like to maybe have you send me my yellow horse blanket! It’s getting cooler at night here. Not much clean up to do it didn’t get hit to bad here. Things in Yorktown aren’t quite what I was thinking they would be! I was expecting lots of ghetto stuff but there isn’t any here. Its lots cleaner than Charlottesville and lots flatter. Makes riding the bike mucho better. My new comp is Elder Sevy. He is from Saint George, UT. He is a good kid and a great missionary. I am learning more patience lol. I don’t think I will ever get a perfect comp. cuz the lord knows I need to learn some patience and charity lol. But all is well. We are teaching lots of people and have a few set for baptism. Let hope we get some more. Well I’m gonna write you so I will talk to ya later.

Love Twark

 p.s. I have to by a bike so I’m gonna have to take 120 out of my account.

Hello mother of mine that I love so much!!

No one here even knows my name except Cody pickup and he calls me that when I see him which has been twice.

It sounds like your week has been full of excitement!

I haven’t had any more baptisms since the one but I won’t be here anymore anyway!!!!I’m going to YORKTOWN!!!!! So much history there I’m pumped!! Hopefully there will be someone who wants s to be baptized to!! My new comp will be Elder Sevy. Let’s hope he is cool. Me and elder Harrison are going to Monticello today1 I hope it’s worth it cuz its 20 bucks!

It weird to think Maddox is already a year old!! Tomorrow I will have been out 2 months! Time is flying buy! I’m not complaining. I haven’t been fishing anymore! There isn’t enough time but there will be in the future. We have lots of investigators that we are teaching right now so I won’t be teaching them anymore but hopefully they will get baptized.

Well mommy my new address is

1200 Piccadilly Loop. APT. G

Yorktown VA, 23692

You should put it on fb so if someone wants s to write me they can see where I am. Other than that not much else is going on. I’m excited to see my new area. I will send pics.

Love you forever like you for always

Hey yall

I’m doing well. The guy I met at Carl's Jr. is getting baptized on the 10th but idk if I will still be in Charlottesville. So don’t send anything until I find out where I will be. I will let you know on Monday where I will be. We have been very busy this week and it was a good week. We had a mission conference yesterday and Elder Evans of the 70 came and talked to us. I learned a lot there. My comps and I still don’t get along the greatest but we have agreed to disagree so it’s all working out. Pee wee I did get your letter but I still want the other 2. Lol it’s kind of funny cuz I usually get 3 to 4 letters a week and my comps are lucky if they get one. I’m just loved what can I say! Well, not much else is going on just working like crazy! Hey DAD you should get you a Preach my Gospel and read it at work! I have learned so much more in 2 months than I ever have and most of it comes from that book.  BLAKE and Kaitlyn!!!!!!!! wth hahahahah

Hey Mom,

I'm doing good. I had my first baptism on Saturday and I got to confirm him on Sunday in front of the ward of about 300 people. I was nervous but did well. Ya, Cody was down closer to the coast so imagine he has been keeping busy with that. We haven't had much cleaning up to do here but idk if we will go down there and help. 

 

Don't worry about not sending something every week, it's all good. Oh, the other day I was eating at Carl's Jr and went to dump my tray and a guy came up to me and asked what church I was from and I told him and guess what! He came to church the next day and is getting lessons now. That was exciting because that was without my comps help. Other than that nothing new.

 

Sounds like you are keeping busy at school , work , with Pee Wee, and home lol. Sounds like a great time. It will be mucho better next year though when everything is already done.

 

I have a few things I would like though, could you get me a pic of the day we got sealed in the temple. We can listen to country as long as it appropriate so if you could make a play list and when its done I will send my ipod. ;) and that jump drive I put in my digital pic frame could you out some pics on there, and could I send my memory cards home so you can put all my pics on your computer?

Well, that's all for now.  Thanks so much

Love you forever,

Cameron
