Well its really weird- I haven't heard from anyone for a while besides Micah now. I don't know if you didn't get my email or some thing but I miss hearing from the family, ummm I thought I would have a email from someone but I guess not..........it sounds really good to hear from everyone. It sounds like mom was able to control her self after a couple of days! haha. I just want to thank everyone for all the letters. I love them. Whenever I read them, I just start to cry- haha. So how is everyone doing? I bet Zack had fun in Texas and he is loving my phone (he has such a good role model...ME) Amber and Kenny that is so exciting that you can here the babies heart beat. I better be the first one to find out the gender. Erin and Steffon I love you guys and can’t wait to shoot that p90 hahaha. And Ellie thank you so much for the letter you are such a sweet heart. Micah thank you for the email from missionary ties.....you are the only one that sent one to me, you are so funny. I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, toooo. Mom- I love you and I miss you so much....but don't you worry I am doing just fine, you would be surprised how good I am doing with my medicine and my personal hygiene (or how ever you spell it). Dad I’m sorry I wasn't there on Sunday!! (Father’s Day) I am sorry, but I wanted to let you know that you are my hero, and that you mean the world to me.....I am holding my tears in right now because I am in a room of missionaries..... but you are the reason I am the person I am today. You have taught me everything that I know. You have always been there for me even when I got in a lot of trouble. I didn't say I love you a lot to you when I was home, but I want you to know that I love you with all my heart. And I think about all the things that you have taught me in my life while I have been here….OK- well Brazil is crazy...its nasty, rich, poor, clean, crowded and beautiful at all the same time.....there will be some nice houses in some areas, then in other places there will be houses put together with nothing but bags and pieces of wood. I am doing a lot better then last week, when I am done writing this letter I am going to go try and place a book a Mormon –haha. I am a little nervous but excited at the same time. My Portuguese is horrible. I can pray a little, and I can say I am a missionary from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, I have a special message for you..... I can also testify a little and stuff. Its so hard here, but I love it....I don't get it- I hated school and wasn't the best student, but here, all it is Mormon school all day and I love it. I love the book of Mormon and preach my Gospel. I have learned so much already. I was reading in Ether the other day and I just started to cry it was really weird because I never do that. Read chapter 3 and 4 in Ether and you will see why I cried. I love the MTC, the food is pretty good but I really don't eat the rice and beans. My bedroom is on the 5th floor so we have to take 100 stairs to reach our bedroom ( I counted one day). It has helped me not to forget anything, cause if I would forget something we would have to go up 100 more stairs..... Well, I hope I hear from you guys soon. Thank you for the cookies and the Doritos....... I miss you all and I will try sending you pictures next week.
PS. Kenny was right- it is hard getting used to comps…and I am sorry I can’t write everyone- I just don't have the longest time to write and I am always busy. Please pray for me. I need every blessing I can get right now.
(Ed. Note: We, Landan's family, HAVE written him. In fact, between all of us, we have written 7 letters this week through mission ties! We are still learning this process, and the best way to communicate with him! I think he was disappointed he didn't have any new mail in his email inbox. Mission ties, is located across the street from the Brazil MTC. We email a letter to them, they print it and deliver it to the MTC. It is quicker, and he gets his letters the same day we send them! When we use his email address, he has to wait until the NEXT WEEK on p-day to read! So.... WE MISS HIM like crazy, we THINK of him constantly and we WRITE him multiple letters during the week! Just to clarify! )
