Ok I only have 29 minutes exactly to write this letter before the computer logs me off! AHHH This is going to be speedy! For starters how are all of you??? How are my little men(I miss them sooooo much)! I have some very exciting news....David LOVES me, he really loves me! I couldn't believe my eye's when I received that letter from him...HOORAY! Ok so I am in LOVE with the MTC! It is such an amazing place to be. The spirit is so strong and it is so cool to see thousands of missionaries from all over the world!!! All of the sisters here are BEAUTIFUL!!! I don't know why I always thought badly about sisters, I was totally wrong! I have learned a ton here but still have so much more knowledge to gain! I love my companions! Sister Thuet is 26 from Las Vegas. She is a hair dresser as well and will be going to W. Virginia with me! You would never guess her age, she's adorable! Sister Place is 21 and from New Jersey. She is very soft spoken and humble. She is helping both sister Thuet and I a lot in that department! I love love love my district! We have the best elders in the whole MTC! I have never before in my life been treated with so much respect as I have by them! They stand up every time we enter a room, help us with our jackets and our ALWAYS opening the doors for us! I love my teachers they are crazy fun! It's wierd to think they're my age because they are so mature in the gospel and life! I see Kevin everyday, he is such a sweet heart and is constantly checking up on me! Hamani Stevens saw me and yelled, "No Way"! He demanded that I write Fenuki and gave me his address( who knows if I ever will)! He said hi Kacy! I want you all to know how much I love you, we are so blessed! I am the only one in my district with a complete and active family! I hear all these stories about siblings falling away and parents seperating. I can't help but to silently thank my Father in Heaven! I have learned that love is not just a word, it's more than that, it's an action! Please show one another that you love each other, REAL love! Thank you all so much for your letters....oh my goodness that is one of the best times of the day! I always get soooo much mail and it makes me appreciate having such a ROCKIN family! I am a little nervous for when I leave the MTC and you all stop using dearelder.com! I just keep telling myself you all will right just as much(cough cough...CHAD)! Kacy you would seriously love serving a mission and you would be GREAT! If you get the oppertunity don't pass it up! Linds I miss hanging out with you in the mornings! Thanks for the Duck update...YAY!!! Go DUCKS! Chad write me you little stinker! Mom and Dad(do you really write those letters or does Kacy do it for you)???lol Either way I love receiving them! Thank You for supporting me in this decision! It has changed my life and me for the better! I have yet to be homesick, Heavenly Father is blessing me so much! Every night I comfort my companions as they get teary eye'd yet I don't feel an ounce of sadness. It truly is a miracle! I am so Grateful to my Father in Heaven! I am senior companion(don't ask why they chose me)! I want you to know that I love this gospel, that I love being a missionary, and I love all of you! Thank You for everything! Please please keep writing me!!! Dearlelder.comis awesome! I have letters to read every night! I lost my address book and need address's as soon as you can get them to me. Especially grandma, grandma durfee, erin fine, melissa, chad and jess, etc...! If you could send those to me via dearelder.com that would be awesome! I want to send out those letters tomorrow! Also I NEED tights! I hate knee high's! I would appreciate full length nude nylons(1x)! Also I may have left some mission clothes there if you see any please send them! I am running out of wardrobe options! I'm sorry I'm asking for so much, I hope you don't mind! I will send you money for an address book if one of you could get one and fill it out for me!!! I love love love you family! You are in my thought and prayers EVERYDAY!!!! I can't say it enough, we are so blessed! Give Connor, Jet, and Colby loves for me! I miss picking up Newbie(I can't think about it or I get sad)! I love my mission! I am so grateful I decided to come!!! Write me PLEASEEEEEEE!!! Oh yeah mom send my boy book(I think it's in my salon)my roommates want to see pictures! Funny Girls! Tell everyone to write me on dearelder.com!
