Well hello family.
I woke up this morning and really could not believe how quick the time has gone. I really can’t believe it has been another week already. I hope it continues to be like this cuz then before I know it I will be on the plane home. Not that I’m trunkey at all. Well the week really has not been that exciting really. It’s just been another week. A few really funny experiences but that’s about it. This week Elder Frye has been the center of attention. First off yesterday was his birthday so he has been the one with all the post and all the happy birthday stuff. But hey that’s cool! But to start the really funny stuff. On Friday we had two funny things happen. On Friday we teach these kids stories from the bible and have a family home evening with them. Well they have a two year old daughter named Hasia. Well she kept jumping on Elder Frye’s back and then giving him kisses on the check, lips or anywhere she could get. While I was there he got 5 kisses from her and the mom just laughed and the other kids kept encouraging her to do it. We were all laughing at it but Elder Frye you could tell was a bit nervous about it. After that we went over to Linda's house and were having a lesson with her. She gave Elder Frye a present. He opened it up and got two boxers and a cup. But the funniest part of it all was Linda got him a large and extra large boxer to wear and she told him not to be getting to cocky with them. She didn't know that the sizes had to do with your waist size, she thought it had to do with the size of the man’s "package." It was super funny. Also the boxers have writing on them one of them says "weapon of mass seduction" and the other says "my girlfriend says I don't listen or something like that". They are both pretty funny.
Well Linda has been really improving she is a funny girl as you can see. This week she has been getting hit hard with some trials but she says she is committed to stay strong. She has committed so stay chaste. She also is working on language, smoking, and prayers. So she is making leaps and bounds. She still smokes but smokes less she says she does not like swearing and is really trying to quit. And she committed herself to the law of chastity. We talked a lot about it and she says it in her best interest. She works at Anne Summers which is similar to Victoria secrets. She is in charge of putting on parties for the company and selling stuff at them. So giving that up was really hard for her cuz of the environment of her work. But it’s all good now. I’m super proud of her! She even tells people she has us up and defends us when they put forth all the crap people say about the church. So she is cool.
Yes mom I have my Easter package, I ate it in two days it was good. And love the cds thank you very much. We have not been able to have the party yet because we have not had the other elders over yet. Also it has been raining a lot lately, so fire and Ireland rain does not go too well. But it sounds like in two weeks we will be doing it so I will tell you about it not next week’s letter but the one after. Mom you’re going to be mad about how much money I spent this month sorry. It’s been bad. One cuz of the trips to Limerick, food, and my shoes ripped out. My running shoes gave out two weeks ago. I was using a shovel and the side ripped on the shovel and cut my foot so the shoes where no good any more so I had to buy new shoes for pday and service. Sorry for that. I want you to know I’m trying to be good with money but because Tralee is so far away from the rest of the other elders I have to travel a lot and it takes most of my church funds and then I have no money for food so I have to dip into personal funds. Sorry.
Well I love you all and I’m proud of you all. I hope dads butt gets better and Jer did a good job on his test. I hope Jers award he receives from school is a good one nothing to scary. Much loves
