GET MY SHOES OFF!!!!

Lance wrote home this week saying, "Tell Alex to GET MY SHOES OFF!!!! I'm very vexed about Alex getting into my shoes." When I first read that I thought, "How does he know that Alex has been wearing his shoes?" Then he explained, "I had quite the surprise when I opened that (photo album that Leslie had made) album (which is wonderful by the way! I have it standing up on my desk so I can look at it) and saw that pic of you, dad and Alex in front of the Salt Lake Temple. The first thing I noticed was my shoes and I was furious." I guess we better get Alex some new shoes, hahaha.

End of the Day in New Amsterdam

Lance has been transferred to New Amsterdam but is still in Guyana. The Bullocks are the Senior Couple who I guess keep an eye on the Missionaries. They also have many other responsibilities in Guyana. Lance loves them and I can certainly see why - they seem like a lot of fun to be around. The other missionaries in the picture are from left to right: Elder Huntsman, Elder Olsen (Lance's companion) and Elder Barton. Elder Olsen is a new companion to Lance and is quite knowlegeable about "math and super heros". Lance said that's all they "talked" about for the first three days, hahaha. He's LOVING his mission!
