May 23, 2011 (Day 140)

Hello Mother,

I am doing good I have finally got over my cold. This week has been a good one, I was able to go on exchanges for three days of it, because my companion went to a leadership training meeting. So most of the time I was in Riverviews area. And at night I went back to my area with one of the zone leaders, so we didn't get to work as much as we wanted to in our area. But Nicole Shield came to church, and that was pretty cool, and we are planning to have her baptism on June 22. The sad thing about it is that Elder Pedersen is probably going to be going next Tuesday. But I did get my bike back this last week, they put a new crank arm on it and it is back up and running, but I should have had them put a new pedal on it because this one lost its berring on it or something. But all is well with it. I hope that you will be able to ride your bike soon, I don't know how warm it is back in Utah. I love riding my bike around, just not in the snow. And I am still considered skinny by everyone, though I put on 20 lbs. And where is Elder Twedt from? I know who he is, I was just wondering if you knew them? Seems that you do know everyone. Ha Ha Ha Elder Twedt was also trained by Elder Bradshaw, which is coming home after this next transfer. Time does fly by when having fun. And I will have been out for 1/4 of my mission.

That is so cool that you were able to talk to Tanner about graduation, I need to write him back. I have been so horrible about that these past few weeks. But that is awesome that he is planning on going on a mission. The thing that I would tell him is that a mission is not an easy thing leaving your life back home and taking on a new one. But it is going to be worth it. And grandpa told me that they went to Suzzan's seminary graduation, man I am feeling a little bit like an old man. Ha Ha Ha

And I was wondering if you are doing the cake for Brittley Read's wedding?

I hope that you guys have a great week, and that you can get all that you want to get done, done. And by the way when is it that you are moving the chiro. office? I love you so much and hope that you have a great week.

Love Elder Tyler Wood
