This week's email came with much anticipation as last week we didn't get to hear from him. I always love watching conference and knowing that he is watching the exact same thing. This is the time of year that if he is to get home sick this would be it. It's hunting season. Wayne and his dad were successful on the first hunt and pictures were sent to him so he could feel of the fever. He is already talking about next year being there right along side him. More than once his grandpa said they needed him and missed him. But, they will for sure pick up where they left off with next season. Bridger has always had a close relationship with his grandparents and he mentions this in this email. They have sent him written letters as they do not have email and you can tell how much he enjoys this. The announcement of the change in mission age I'm sure was quite a surprise to a brother who is excited to see his pal. He was able to chat with Stetson and said he would understand if he decided to go. However, Stetson has a plan and is going to continue to press forward with papers in December and hoping to leave May/June 2013. This way they can hang out with each other for a couple of months which I think both are looking forward to. This is a great email. He is doing fantastic. And today we attended a welcome home of a sister that served as a mission nurse and was in the MTC with Bridger. There were several other missionaries that knew Bridger and it was fun to hear of their love for him. In the words of Elder Anderson, everyone loves Elder Clayton...I'm not surprised. Enjoy...
General Conf what a bomb week right i mean one of the bests i think especially if you are a missionary because its a time that you can actually relax and take a break and really just i don't know the talks seem to be for me more than anything i have learned how to really listen to them and get inspired to be better and do better its like there messages of Hope you know what i mean just that's what i got from this conferance cause there is so much screwed up in the world these days and they all know about the errors and everything bad but then they all talked about Repoentance and Jesus Christ i mean its so cool that He loves us so much that no matter how far we are off the path that if we want to change and are willingly he will always let us back in i think of my freaking brothers man we probably used to fight ok not probably we did for sure but i love them so much so much and i want the best for them thats why they have to stay in church go on missions and ah freak Pres Monson with the new age for missionaries i could not believe that cause i mean Stetson is there ya i mean freak i just have always planned on finishing up then hanging out with him for a couple months and then that he could start his awesome adventure but who knows he could be gone. I Love that kid hes the bomb. So ya conference was great oh with even better news after watching conference our investigators all want to be baptized!!!!! We should have 8 this month hahaha can you believe that im stoked and we will be zona celestial.
