Week 3 - Bonus!!

Hi mom! Yes, Our district's P day is Tuesday while here in the MTC, but

Sister Cardon (we're on splits because both our companion's are sick) and I

got permission to write home about some things we need.. I was going to ask

you to send more no show socks, and maybe some treats??? Wintergreen

lifesaver mints would be awesome (we can't have gum), and just whatever

kind of treats you think would be good :) you always have the good stuff. I

think you get it from Grandma Lamb haha. No worries if you can't get

anything sent, I'm not dying or anything ;) and I can make what socks I

have work if necessary. Can't stay long. So our district is STRUGGLING

hahaha. An Elder "escaped" the other night, for a few hours and basically

just wondered the streets of Provo for a bit, borrowed a couple's cell

phone to call his parents (and probably girlfriend), but all his dad said

was stop being a baby haha. I guess all the elder's were freaking out and

looking for him for a few hours, and woke up everyone in the dorms hahaha.

I wish I could have seen it.

 Anyway.. I've enjoyed the fall air, especially this morning, we

didn't have to get ready until later today so we all ate breakfast outside

in our sweats and hoodies for companion study. I love getting the Dear

Elders from you mid week just so you know, write me any time because it

feels great to get some happy words in between p days.

I'll be able to write more Tuesday

Love you so much

Love Teirs

One more thing! So Pres Metcalf gave me permission to use the computers to
listen to music and watch talks and what not, because it was much needed
and has helped a ton the past few days. Anyway I came across a Pioneer Day
concert with MOTAB and The King's Singers from earlier this year.. SO GOOD.
Definitely look it up on lds.org. One of the first songs they sing is Loch
Lomond (one of my favs). Totally made me feel at home, at least for a bit.
You know me.. I need a little Celtic spirit every now and then to keep me
safe.

Another sweet thing.. We go to the temple every Tuesday morning here, and
last Tuesday one of Levi's great aunts from Scotland (maybe Ireland) was
working at the name desk! She has the sweetest accent, and is just full of
love. We recognized each other and eventually made the connection. Her name
is Christine Lynch.  She gave he a huge hug, and I saw her again this
morning. She told me some very sweet things and hugged me twice before
wishing me a happy mission and telling me she knows how loved I am..
definitely a sweet mercy.

I need everyone's birthdays and emails mom! I can't believe I forgot to get
a list before I left.. Could you maybe get a few for me? Of course our
immediate family's.. maybe Laurie Ridges, Lindsay's, Jacquie Jones, Stefani
James.. I'll think of more.

Love you so so much
