hey you :) i love you! i'm sad that you didn't get to talk on Christmas, but i'm sure it's a good reason. I hope you get to talk some other time though. I've been worried about ya all week! I hope everything is ok. Christmas was good, I wrote you a letter about it that is coming to you in the mail :) so yeahh. How was your Christmas? What good things did your sweet mommy get you? :) You better write lots in that journal ;) I got one that i can buy you paper for, so you don't have a zillion little journals from your mission :) hehe so tell me when it's almost full. I'm excited to read about all the good things in there :) Did you eat that turkey or whatever it was that your mom sent to you?

This week I've just been doing a lot of driving back and forth from Logan and Ogden, i'm getting real sick of it. haha but it has been good to be with my family for the week. I am going back tomorrow, which is good and bad. School starts again on the 6th. I did something a little silly this week klay.... :) uhh... I went wedding dress shopping :) hahahehe. And I found one! OH NO. haha my mom said she won't buy it yet though, so hopefully they still have it in a year :) I would send you a picture... but it's bad luck to see the bride in her dress before the wedding ;) so you'll just have to wait. ha I'm gonna have this wedding all ready for when you get back :) hahaha I didn't even have to lie to the wedding dress lady, she asked when we were getting married and I said July, which isn't technically a lie, cause I never said which year ;)

Klay thanks for trying for me. You always try so hard and I notice it I promise. You are everything I could ever ask for and I am so grateful for you :) Don't think your actions and efforts go unnoticed. I remind myself everyday how hard you are working. Every time i think, "gosh dang it, I just want Klay home!" ha I remind myself how worth it it will be when I am done waiting in 16 months. The longer the wait, the sweeter the return :) But no longer than 16 months k? ;) haha No but seriously, thank you. thank you thank you thank you. I can never ever repay you for how you treat me and how loved you make me feel. I honestly feel like I don't deserve you, but I pray that you will think I do when you get back. You are the sweetest thing I know. I love you Klay, be safe and figure out a way to talk to your sweet family. They love you. Have a good week elder. :)

Love lou.
