Engagement Anouncement from the MTC

Hey Mom, Big New here!

I'm supposed to tell you all that Peter and Katelyn are engaged!

 I found out my companion does not have mono just strep throat, so that's good. I don't feel like I did much the past week and that's probably cause I really didn't do much. I was kind of got stuck at the apartment a lot or the other person with strep would stay with my companion and I would go to class. Every one in my district has gotten sick at least once.  My companion was the first and also the worst. I was at class and some other guys in my district who were sick gave him a blessing.

So after they get married maybe Pete and Katelyn can move into your basement so you won't be all alone. Don't worry mom, when I get engaged I wont tell you until the day of the wedding and  I won't be like Peter and make some one else tell you for me. Sam is going to move out and.  Luke and Rebecca are going to have a baby.  I am going to Mexico.  So you will have to deal with it just being the two of you for awhile.  But don't worry to much, I am never going to leave. Haha! I found out what my major will be in college:  Stay at home son for life!

I am not worried about the Spanish any more.  I accepted that I am going to go to Mexico and not know what is going on for a few months. Hopefully less than two.  But every one told me it takes about eight. 

You sent me more church shirts!  I wanted ONE normal shirt.  Thanks for every thing else though, I might send back the shirts and I have one pair of pants that's too small. Its the grey ones if you could get those and go and get some with a bigger waist I would appreciate it. If you could throw a pair of ear plugs into the next package I would like that. 

Tell peter that he was late on getting engaged, my bet was that it would happen before October, not at the end of October. I think it was Kolton who had that month.  Well mom, I think this makes you the last to know again. But they got engaged on Sunday. I was given the task of informing you of this news.

Bye ya'll
