The Mommy-Well this week was good. We have a couple of investigators that are really close to being baptized and we had one of the recent reactivated members just receive the Melch Priesthood. Other than that the work has been going pretty well, we have to rely on the members to get us to some of our investigators though because our area is pretty big. It has been fun getting to know the area and the people here. Well the two other missionaries that live with us are the Hmong (Mong) Elders. I do know one of them because he is from the same group that I came out in, but I did not know them that well when I first came here to Oroville. Now though I do know them pretty well and they are cool and fun. My address is 57 Evanswood Circle Oroville CA 95965 sorry I did not get that to you sooner. Well it sounds like your trip to Logan was quiet exciting. Though I know that I would not have been happy if it was me. Well I am feeling better and am doing well. Though the Hmong Elders are sick and I am scared that I am going to get it again or something. We will see I will try to keep up on the meds and such to stay well. The new companion and the new area are going well. I am getting a hold of the area and my companion. It is actually better than I thought and with things going well I know that is helping. Oroville is pretty good sized I would say. Our area is HUGE because we cover "country" and some of the city itself. I am not sure the population or anything but it is good sized.Well how are you doing mom? What is new in the life of the mommy? Well I hope that things are going well. Take care and I will talk to you later. Love youYour son,Elder Brickey

Hola-Hey it sounds like things are going well for you and your family. I tell you what by the time I get home I would not be surprised if your kids are not only potty trained but completely their own individuals. They are growing up so fast it is ridiculous. It will definitely be interesting to see how much they have changed when I get home. Well Table Mountain is definitely funny looking and very cool looking as well. There are some fun trails around the mountain as well that make it cool though. I do not know if I have many pictures of Lincoln, but I will send you all the pictures that I do have. I am actually putting together a package to send home with a whole bunch of stuff that I need to get rid of.That is pretty sweet that you were able to find some Toy Story stuff for Dallin. I am definitely in on whatever you want for mom and dad. I sill be glad to pitch in whatever, just let me know if there is not any left from my last check or whatever.My companion does surf, but is not that big into it. He is actually into cars and motorcycles, sounds like me doesn't it? Well other than that things have been going well and things seem to be just awesome so far.I hope that things go well for you for the rest of the week and I hope to hear from you soon. Love ya.-Elder Brickey
