Elder Hackleman,
How in the world are you?
We are so excited because Jeremy, Sammee and all the family is here
visiting. We are going to the zoo today. Little Jerik is so much
fun. We can't even keep up with all his funny sayings.
I was making puffed
pancakes for breakfast this morning, after I put them in the oven I jumped into
the shower. In the mean time the pancakes burned and set off the fire
alarms. Now that's a great welcoming way to enjoy guests ha ha.
Our computer was running
real slow and seemed to have a virus even though we have run the geek squad
system on it over and over. Jeremy spent about a half an hour cleaning it
up and now it is running like a speed car. Awesome!
I sure love you!
Love
mom

From Grant: Yo Jar
what's up dog? Sure am missing you. We are going to the zoo today.
The bishop asked us to finish the book of mormon this summer, but I am
only in Enos, so I have a long way to go. Remember that lady that always
wore a bandana in her hair and we thought she was sort of crazy. Well she
died from a semi running over her. So that's pretty crazy.
We are going to the
temple for baptisms for the dead with Jaiten and them on Tuesday. So that
will be really cool going with my cousins to the temple. It is Rykers first
time so it will be a good experience for him.
The one thing I want most
when you come back is a dollar of the Peruvian money.
When I went to Hawaii the
first thing I did was snorkel. Then the next day I went paddle boarding,
you know the stand up on a surfboard almost and paddle yourself. That
hurt a lot afterwards because it made me sore. Then we changed to the
condo and that felt like it was haunted because the stairs would creek and
there were bugs everywhere, but we lived. I got this really cool ball
that Nathan was talking about, you might have seen it. It's called wobabo
ball. Seth sells them at Bed Bath and Beyond. So then we went
surfing and I got up the first try but I didn't go very far. So I was a
natural. That's what they called me. What instructor did you have
when you had the surfing lessons. Because my instructor might have had
you. His name was Pa Ah. It's short for something I just can't
remember.
We had really good puffed
pancakes that mommy made for breakfast.
So that's about all.
Hope to see you in 1 and 3/4 of years.
Love you Grant
Dear Family,
HAHA! This letter is the best letter ever! It´s
so good to hear from all of you! I have no idea where my ipod is seth sorry.
haha Yes Nathan Peru is awesome. Z Reciever!!!! That´s what they were changing
me to at SVU if I would have stayed! That´s awesome bro! Grantee. You kept up
the streak of getting up on the first try surfing! All 4 of us are naturals! I
hope you guys are having fun with Jeremy and Sammee and the family. It looks
like Mom spells Zerick´s name about as well as Jeremy. It was something
different in every one of the letters. Haha
So I met with President Archibald
for our interviews for the first time on friday. It was so awesome. The man is
at one with the Spirit I know that for sure. He helped me out a ton on what
things I can do to be a better missionary.
I jinxed myself last week when I
told dad all is well with health. I had the worst fever of my life and was bed
ridden for like 2 and a half days. I´m on the mend now so its all good.
I was
asked to give a talk 2 weeks ago for what I thought was this week but it was
actually for next week because this week is fast sunday. But I totally spaced
that fast sunday is fast and testimony meeting so we got to church early and I
went to sit up on the stand and sat there until about 2 minutes before the
meeting started when I remembered what the clank day it was. It was pretty
embarrassing because I could tell the bishopric was getting a good laugh out of
it. Haha
We had 5 investigators in sacrament meeting yesterday. They were are
all new to us as missionaries too and we have appointments scheduled to meet
and teach every one of them this week. I´m way excited about it because they´re
all awesome. Love you guys!!!!! Grant, you may need to start helping mom with
the swedish pancake action if you know what I´m sayin, I want to come home to a
house, not a piece of rubble. haha Love you all!
Elder Hackleman
