Austin's Missionary Journal

Hey, family!  How's life? Thanks so much for all the letters and emails, and thanks Mom for the package  of  cinnamon rolls. Getting mail here is satisfying, though kind  of  weird sometimes. When I say weird, I mean just the formatting  of  everything. Like just today, Elder Henderson and I went a grabbed the mail for our district, and to my surprise, I find about thirteen letters for me. I was very excited. I thought just about everyone I knew wrote to me... that is, until I actually opened them. One was a card  from  Mom, and the rest were a giant letter Mom had written with the majority  of  it being Ryan and Kylie's letters. As far as I could tell, they were supposed to be separated into different letters, but all  of  them were like jigsaw pieces that cut out  of  the middle  of  a sentence spontaneously at the bottom  of  a page and continued on  in  a different letter. But do...

On Wednesday October 14, 2015,  Austin chose brunch at IHOP  on our way to the MTC Brandon, Austin and Ben Elder Moe! Katrina and kids!
