Hey guys, whats happening? schools starting soon right? How are things with Sherie, Keith and Kestra? Hows Kristie's situation going? how is Clarissa doing? Any word from Aaron and Maylene? Whats the latest with randy and Don? anyway that should be enough questions for now, but moving on. Thank you for letting M&M know about my shoes. I made a comparison and the biggest difference between the shoes was the thickness of the insoles and the tread. My old shoes are still usable to a point but they make my feet hurt in a weird way so they won't be employed for much longer. I decided to put them aside and use them when I know I want mostly nice shoes but in a semi dirty situation. About the whole emergency kit thing, if I was being confusing, I am sorry, I was told the most cost effective way to get one set up would be to have my family send me a old, but in good condition, backpack, and then I would be getting the supplies for it out here using my own funds so I am not sure about how to arrange all the supplies but i figured that I could count on you guys for a old but dependable backpack right?(I don't know if you have thrown out all of the old backpacks yet but it was worth a try). If you guys ever get a chance, try getting a hold of the set of church DVDs called "doctrine and covenants study recourse" DVDs, and/or "church history" those would be great to use in family home evenings or during some spare time between conferences if you wanted too, they have allot of stuff on them . Has anyone read "the teachings of the presidents of the church" any of that series? those are real eye openers, though we aren't supposed to use them out on our missions, but I would really recommend taking a few minutes every now and again to read one of them. Have Randy or Don done some studying lately? I would really suggest they get going on that, it will make their missions a whole lot easier if they start now.(I know I am probably repeating or quoting a lot of people with that statement but beside the point) and on a final note, did you guys ever get a chance to look at that blog spot link I sent you? if you did I hope you guys liked it. I would recommend to everyone that you get a profile for yourselves on the new www.mormon.org, with all the stuff that is going around this site has been a great boon to the church and the missionaries, it also has a lot of good info on it, quick references for clearing up misconceptions about the church, great sumaries about basic doctrine, ect...
well I've gotta get going, so just to finish up, hope you guys have had a great week hope.
I am always praying for all of you and hope you guys have a good week, love you all
LATER;-}
