Still in Gram...Email from Aug. 30, 2010

Hey Dudes,

Don't have too much time. I'm staying in Graham for another transfer. Can you talk to the Judkins and see who they know here?
Tell Rachel that Elder Echols is in my mission, I don't know him too well though. Tell Andrew I met a dude named Elder Bussio, he said he knows him.
I'm a little worried to be here still cause this is Elder Warner's last transfer. I'm concerned that his trunkieness might reach it's peak. We'll see. Not too much stuff's going on.

LOVE

That is Freakin' Disgusting...Email from Aug. 23, 2010

(Rachel sent Daniel pictures of her little buggy friend that was stuck in her ear.)Dudes! Baptism this week! The dude we got married 2 weeks ago got baptized on Tuesday and confirmed on Sunday. It was waaaay sweet.His names Patrick, he's 23 and going into the Guard pretty soon here.
Other than that the week was kinda hard. We were supposed to find a family by last Saturday and report to president. We tried all week and it didn't work.
Graham is kind of a sinkhole as far as the church is concerned. Apparently the ward has a rep for being the place where you go to hide from the church. We meet inactive people all the time who got offended or lazy or whatever. Kinda lame, but there's still some way sweet people though.
That's way cool about Robby and Tristan,and lame about the Froers' not being around. Andrew can still do some stuff on his papers though right? He's gotta get out quick! I love y'all. Hope your doing great!

Hey Dudes,

Guess what?! One of our investigators got married! I got to be a witness. The dudes getting baptized this week so I'm way stoked.
Keyan's going to Italy! Does he still look like he's 12? That's sweet. Don't really have much new stuff going on. Having fun though. I love you guys!

Halfway Already- email from Aug 9

Hey Dudes

That is crazy about Jeff! I am way stoked. Another pretty interesting week. We took a really nice lady on a church tour, but she's way socially converted to the baptist church. Lame.
We stacked two chords of wood on saturday, which I found out is A LOT. A chord is a stack that's 4 by 4 by 8 feet. It took about 4 hours.
We're pushing really hard for a baptism this week. The dudes getting married on tuesday and my comp and I get to be the witnesses. Other than that theres not much going on, Crazy Connies still crazy, tracting is still kinda worthless, the ward is still pretty dern cool. We had our first Sunday with some topics other than temple blessings...yay! I love you guys and I hope your doing sweet.

Jeff Woods? Email from Aug 2, 2010

Sup Peeps

Which Jeff is going on a mission? YES! Get Andrews papers in ASAP I dont want to miss him by too much. I can't believe I've been out for a year now. It goes by riddiculously fast. Tell Andrew to start preparing Hard-Core right now. It'll help so much.
Last week was good as far as lessons and finding went, but we did'nt get anyone to church. By the way I burned one of my shirts for my year mark. It was pretty sweet. Are Rachels ear O.K.? Keep on truckin y'all. I'm so stoaked for Andrew right now!

EWWWWW- email from july 26

Dude

That's freaking gross about Rachel's ear!(Rachel had a bug crawl in her ear.) I thought that was just a myth.
We got our crazy investigator confirmed last sunday. She's a way sweet lady, she's just super annoying some times and a big handful at church.
I got a letter from Gabe. He's doing good. Tell Phills to write me.
This week was kinda slow but we still got an awsome investigator to church. We found her tracting. Her name is Katie and she's only lived in Graham for like a week. Her roomates were trying to Anti her all of last week but she came anyway! That's funny about Andrew and Tiff, is Glenn there too? I love you guys! lemme know how Rachels ear turns out. I hope it did'nt lay eggs!

Elder Underdone
(Good one)
