My family I love you so much!!! I'm so glad to hear that you are doing good!! Did you enjoy Logan? I hope that you partied hard enough for me too! Mabey dad should just become a full time wedding guy he is getting pretty darn good at it it sounds like! haha The love shack doesn't even look the same you guys really have been working hard on it! Tell Jessa to keep up the good work at Volleyball and just keep being the amazing people that you are! That's crazy that soccer is doing so good, go Wes!! I got your package on Tuesday! It was awesome thank you so much! I was actually thinking that some Jam would be awesome and then I opened it up and there was jam, it was a tender mercy of the Lord I almost cried hahaha Y'all are to good to me. This Louisiana dirt bag doesn't even deserve how awesome of a family he has! This week has been crazy but fun! I went on exchanges with Elder Bennett to Mandeville and it is super nice there. It makes Covington look like a dump hole haha But it was fun to get a little change and to have a car instead of just my bike. We had a zone meeting in New Orleans and that was pretty awesome to see!! We drove across the cosway which is like the one of the longest bridges in the world it was crazy!! And after the meeting we went to the French market for a few minutes and it really is like the movies a bunch of black people playing jazz on the sidewalks and just having a good ol time! I love the people here! We went to a Less Active members house for dinner and it was awesome! They live out in the sticks (like a 15 to 20 mile bike ride) but it was worth it. There front yard is a pond and we caught turtles off of there front porch haha It was awesome! We ate some Jambalaya and then caught turtles it was a good ol time! The work is slow everybody is catholic or "has already been saved" by Jesus but that's ok. I've got so much Dye blood runin through my veins it is kind of scary sometimes haha These 2 or 3 hour long missionary meetings about make me lose my mind haha But I am learning to try and be more patient like my mama! I am doing great and the members are taking good care of me! I am doing my best to be the kind of missionary that I should be. I hope that y'all have a great week!!! I love you!! Love, your dirtbag son Elder Dye :)
