Anfamé ~ I absolutely love this sector with all my heart!

Dear Family,

Hey what's up? I am doing well. And it sounds like you are too! Sounds like the Strong's had a rough week with doctor visits... That's okay though... It happens! (Ellie had her gall bladder removed and Jackson fractured his ankle when he missed a step.) I hope that they will all be feeling better soon! Sounds like Grandpa had a good birthday as well! Hooray!! He is such an amazing man, the best, isn't he? 
...because I can't post without a picture...
Sucks to suck for East. Looks like State Championships just aren't in their makeup...  2011 Homecoming!! Glory days!!! Whoooo! Ah man... Only 19 days left on the mission, time is counting down, and it is crazy.

There was ANOTHER scorpion incident... Except this time I was totally inspired to check inside my shoe before I put it on... How awesome is that? I NEVER check my shoes... But for some "Random" reason, I did this time, and there was a huge scorpion in there! How crazy is that!? After screaming to my companion he came and killed it with a broom hahaha. It was scary, I almost had a heart attack!

Mom, you have no idea how incredibly bad I have been craving Joy Luck... Oh my heck tangerine chicken and wontons... And egg drop soup. But mostly the chicken... I could eat like 5,135 helpings of that. And Domino's BBQ chicken pizza... Hooray!!! Haha I am so excited!

This week went by so fast! So, so fast even. I don't know where the time is going. Not down the toilet I can tell you that much! We've got 8 baptisms lined up before I go home... So the work is progressing really nicely here in good ole Anfamé! I absolutely love this sector! With all my heart... I am doing really well myself... I just got done reading Doctrines of Salvation and it totally blew my mind away! It was only the second volume though... So if you want to get me a good Christmas present, you will get me the volume set! Or just a kindle... Because I want to get The Great Apostasy and The Articles of Faith as well... And a bunch of other books... So like... Hint hint ;)

To be absolutely honest, I don't have anything to write to you this week, other than the Church is true, Joseph Smith was a true prophet, and when we will be resurrected we won't have blood in our bodies... Because there is life in blood, and that is what makes us live in our mortal bodies... But when we are resurrected our immortal bodies will be living by our spirit... And we won’t need blood... Haha. How cool is that!? I'm full of em now... Well I love all of you, and I hope that you guys have a good week! Peace, love, and temple marriage... If not... ah.... uh.... ah... Not good.

            Love you all,
                           Elder Landon Dean Layton
