July 24
okay, hopefully you get this by the time the _______ arrive in salt lake or at least before then, but just a heads up, the members we are currently living with _______ are going on a trip to provo utah to visit family, and while they are there brother ___________ is going to go up to salt lake to do some repair work or something like that at their son's house in salt lake, and so I figured that since Dad still works durring the day and their son might not live too far from where Dad works (although I am not completely sure that your offices are still near salt lake, but that is still the general area where you work right?) that they could take some of my stuff that I do not really need to be hauling around out here on the mission and is taking up alot of space and so I asked them if they would take that suff back up to utah with them, and they said that it would not be a problem (for which I am extremely grateful for) and so they sould be calling you guys some time within the week to arrange the pick up of the boxes.
so to put it simply there will be three boxes, the first two you are not to open, but just put them with my stuff please, these are some of my personal belongings and other effects, the boxes will be the two flat rate shipping boxes, the other one (the shoe box) is good to open.
I recently recieved a second letter from the ward primary including a note from mom. I was curious to know wheather this one had been only recently sent or if it had been ment to arrive with the one the teachers quorum sent? but anyway, that was cute and let the sunbeams know they have potential as artists in the future. ;)
 I think that I will do the direct responce again for simplicity's sake :

Oh man!!!  I remembered I hadn't written AFTER you had already done so, what's up with the early letter??? (what early letter? I sent that at the same time I usualy do..)  lol  Sorry...not your fault, mine!  We are just a little crazy trying to get things ready for leaving for California and Donald's trek and I'm afraid I slept in this morning as I haven't been sleeping well...so we're just slackers!!!  I'm so sorry.  I'm writing this quick one in hopes that you get another chance to check before the end of p-day...if not, you'll just have two next week.
The sealing is this weekend, and we're leaving on Thursday morning.  Donald's trek starts tomorrow, and Randy is out helping grandpa Dahl with stuff at her house to earn money, and Kristie is doing something in her room, and Clarissa is at school, Dad at work, and what can I say???  Typical crazy day at the Parkers.(whats randy need the money for? is it for the service mission you guys were talking about? so where did Don go while you guys were up in northern Cali? oh well guess it's a wonderfull weird world after all.)
The weather has been wonderful - we've had rain the past two days, and I guess they had flooding in St. George, which is normal for them - flash flood stuff.  Kes is doing great.  Haven't seen Carrie since last week, and don't know if we're seeing her tonight, we still have stuff to do for Thursday.  sigh.(yep crazy huh?)
Anyway, glad to hear things are going well!  The girls understand, they know what you are doing is important!  (well...at least Kristie and Clarissa do...  lol) (that is both encuraging and depressing, mom...)
Next week is Pioneer day, is your area doing anything for that?  I seem to remember that you had some activities last year...hope it's good for you.  Take care!!  We'll be better about writing next week!!  ARGH.  And by the way - I got some stamps, I'll try and get them mailed to you soon.(only that our district is doing district activity today and they kind of talked about it in sacrament meeting, but no activities that IZ can think of anyway gotta get going thanks for the photo's in the other email and I hope you guys have a great week, and please get me that votting stuff to please thanks, love you all!!!!
