Hello everyone.  Another great week in the MTC.  The news for the week is Elder Bednar came and that was amazing. So fun to have an apostle come.  I became district leader this week and I am learning a ton from it.  It requires me to be on top of things a lot more but I’m grateful for the opportunity to do it.  In the Tuesday devotional a big thing was put one foot in front of the other.  I love all the elders in my zone. We do everything together and laugh a ton.  I am really excited to be heading to Norway in 18 days.  Can't believe it’s almost here. Let’s hope I get a lot better at the language before then.  Everything is great and I'm still loving being a missionary.

Hey Mom. I am just going to say this first so I don't forget but will you send me some more church socks and could you send me a green tie? Kind of like the red one we ordered before I left.  Another great week in here. I have been the district leader since Sunday and it's fun but a lot of work.  The thing that surprised me most was that I would laugh as hard as I do at night with the Elders.  We literally fall to the ground laughing so hard.  The thing I don't like is how long the days are and how short the weeks are.  Days take forever and weeks go by way fast. Fridays and Saturdays are the hardest days of the week, but once I get through those it’s nice.  Yes! I am getting lots of letters. I'm still loving it. It's long but great. Have a great week! Love you.
