 Hey guys just wanted to let you know I'm doing awesome and this is the best time of my life so far, I love my district, the Elders in my picture and also the Sisters, and my teachers are amazing.

MTC campus at Christmastime

From Left to right: Elder Eggett, Me, Elder Belnap (District Leader/ Companion), Elder Johnson, Elder Zeller, Elder Barry!
The MTC has been awesome, the classes are so engaging and it's awesome to feel the Spirit of the Lord everywhere you go! I'll send more pictures later. It snowed Wednesday night and Thursday morning, but on Thursday Elder Barry got a stomach bug so I got to help give him a blessing with Elder Johnson.
Elder Eggett is a technical genius, he does freelance development and programming from Lehi, Utah
Elder Belnap my companion is awesome he's a mountain man that does parkour, on the way to gym last night he just did a casual flip while we were running over to play volleyball, from Preston, Idaho where Napoleon Dynamite lives
Elder Johnson went through basic in the army reserve and has been telling us crazy stories about his service, he is a true patriot from somewhere in Utah idk where
Elder Zeller is awesome, he's the biggest goofball ever, he's so humble and willing to listen, he's a bit crazy though from Las vegas, Nevada.
Elder Barry is awesome too we love to mess around and have fun from Lehi Utah as well
We live in a dorm with three bunk beds but we only have 4 people so poor Elder Egget, being the shortest and last one that arrived he got stuck on the top bunk, Elder Zeller is his companion and they're like polar opposites but they love eachother. Elder Johnson and Barry are companions but they're in the room next door. We've been having alot of fun but also getting down to work as well, Elder Belnap and I give a lesson tomorrow in Priesthood meeting about the Creation, Agency, and God's Plan for Us. We've had so many teachers because the original teacher Sister Crockett is on a vacation with her family, our District is compiled with sisters too, we have a picture from dinner last night, this is the best thing that I can imagine myself doing right now and I have grown so much closer to my Father in Heaven already! The food is good and the sleep is better but I love it here, and I love all of you!
Vaya con Dios!
