Missionary news

Im doing really well. Elder Crowther and I are having some really good success and we have found some solid investigators. Im also getting much better at soccer! Im actually good enough to be the second defender picked now! Mostly because im big and since i know im no good i just play aggressively and that makes up for my lack of skill. And speaking of big im actually down to about 225 lbs now. Thats minus two inches in the waist AND i had to use a knife and make another notch in my belt!
This saturday ill be 6 months on mission! I cant believe im almst 25% done already!
I love you and miss you!
