Hello! so I tried to send an email but for some reason the darn thing wouldn't take my password! Kinda frustrating. Just wanted to say thank you a bunch for the package Mother! My glasses were getting hard to see out of .ha ha. Well sorry I won't be writing everyone via email, so hopefully you can just copy this or read it to them. If they want to hear it. Thank you for the absentee ballot thing. Is it true what I heard about if gay marriage passes in California, temple marriages may stop there for a while? I doubt it, it was just a rumor but it's bothering me & I need some comfirmation of my suspicion. I guess I was told that if it passses homosexuals could sue the church or something for not letting them go in? I hope not, if so this world is getting ridiculous, O, and what's the deal with the stockmarket? I heard it crashed...does that mean much for us??

Anyways, that sounds great about Erick and Megan's house! Have you seen it yet? That does sound good that they won't be paying John's mortgage anymore, ha ha.
So how much did Glen seem to remember? Did it sound like he used it a lot when he got back (Indonesian)? Cuz I have a feeling I may not use it much when I get back, except Elder Schneider is going to BYU-I as well when we get back, so I'll be able to talk to him & that will be neato! O, we're planning on most likely rooming together, at least at this point.

Thank you Shannypoo for the package! The isue-isue (cookies) were delicious! That's crazy about Denise! Tell her to let me know whats going on! I don't know her particularly well but it will be good to see a familiar face if I do see her. And ya, still leaving Oct. 22. That Claire-Bear, she is a cutie! give her a big hug for me! And tell her not to work to hard on learning Indonesian while I'm gone so she doesn't make me look bad when I get back! ha ha. And it sounds like Lilly's quite the little smartypants! learning sign language and building things! I miss all three of those little girls. O, and Erick don't worry, I am wise in the ways of avoiding the Atomic sit-up. thanks for the heads up though ha ha. Also we get to go to the temple every P-day, in fact I will be going in about 4 hours, pretty exciting if you ask me. O, and I'm not sure if I told you, I don't think I did, cuz Erick asked about the District leader, I am the Distric leader. I have been for about 3 weeks now. So, to answer the question, ya, I guess I like my District leader...haha.

Becky, that is great about Dan Dan Noodle going to church!! I really hope and pray he will keep on wanting to come. I know it will be good for him. What's that Kinster up to!!! Shinanigans I assume! ha ha

About that testimony meeting where everyone spoke and said they appreciated Dad, they had better! He is an awesome Bishop if I do say so! Well everything is going great here! I'm teaching lesson 3 Friday, tomorrow, so that will be interesting. But I'm excited to get out there and serve! I love you all, and I better run! Hope you all have a great week!
Love,
Elder Johnson
