Dearelder.com

Brandon wanted me to let you all know that you can write him letters on dearelder.com and it should get to him that day while he is in the MTC. He says it only works in the MTC though so do it before Aug. 3rd or so. It is pretty self explanatory once you get on there so don't hesitate to write. I'm sure he would love it.

Frack's 1st P-day

Hey, family. Well, today is my first p-day, so I get to email you. How's it going? Thanks for the package today. I don't get many Junior Mints now-a-days, so that was a pleasent surprise. Hey, i need a few adresses. I need the Brady's home adress, I need Scott's adress, and I need Stephanies adress. I was also thinking that since it is so difficult for people to send letters to me while I'm in the West Indies that maybe the other missionaries could send them to you, and then you could send them to me. Just a thought. I'm havin a great time, though. Today we went to the Temple, and it was pretty awesome. It's alot like the Logan temple. Hmm, anything else that you need to know? I don't know if I told you but my companions name is Elder Logan. My district here in the MTC is awesome. My zone is pretty cool as well. Shane and Tate Harris's cousin was one of our zone leaders last week. He's going to Alaska, and he leaves on Wednesday. I think that my departure date is August 3rd, so I won't get to see Thomas. I am going to be sending a few pictures to you guys, but I think that I'm gonna do the same thing Dustin did, and just send you guys the memory card, and then you can send it back. That'll be a little easier, and it can fit inside a normal envelope. There are a few more things I need you to send me before I leave the MTC. I need a few more normal shirts, my sandals that I left, and some normal socks. We have gym time, and I need more pairs of socks and shirts for that. So you know, mom, going to Harry Potter was worth it. i may have been dead tired all day, but so was everyone else, and I was one of the few people that actually slept that first night. But I'm having a great time, but I can't wait to get out of here. Days are jam packed with classes, and I can't wait to get out there and get some actual teaching experience. And I need to write a few other things on here because I know you are going to post this on my blog. To all the other people out there who are part of my unbiological family, sorry that you miss me so much. There's not a whole lot we can do about that. Just try to hang on for another two years. I know how hard life must be without me, but I think that all of you should get out there and learn what an actual life feels like. Just cause I'm not there doesn't mean you need to shrivle up in a corner. Well, okay, so that is about all I am going to write now. I love you all. Elder Ackerman
