Blue Sky

So I woke up today and looked out the window and it was the first time i saw the blue sky and the sun, then i looked down at the pond that is right outside my window and the water looked like glass and the first thing I thought about was going water skiing, but that is not going to happen. Yesterday was not raining but very cloudy and the soccer field was dry so we were able to go out and play some English football, it was really fun. Even though I didn't run a lot i still got very sweaty because it is very humid here. We got 2 more missionaries today, one from Germany and one from the Netherlands, the one from Netherlands is my roommate. We also got to go to the Temple this morning which is like a 2 min. walk from the MTC, it was a great experience. My companion is a funny kid. We get to go to Manchester this Friday and go street contacting. I was very excited until about 30 min ago,  we went into a little down going to get some stuff we might need and we were walking down the street and some lady started yelling at us and actually tried to spit on some of the Elders so that makes me a little nervous! The women that knew Tanner is Sister Smith, she is one of my teachers and is awesome, I like her a lot and she has a very strong accent. The other teacher we have is Brother Watts and he is also a great guy, he likes to give Americans crap for how we talk and how we say the restroom and not the toilet, every time one of us needs to use the toilet he makes sure to tell us that we don't rest too long in there. The food here is pretty good, not bad, some of the food doesn't have as much taste as in America but that's fine. I think I am just getting over my jet lag, last night was the first time I got some really good sleep which for some reason made it harder to wake up today. But yeah I can receive emails from my buddies but a lot of them I don't have too much time to read. I send home a letter yesterday so I'll be surprised to see how long it takes to get home. I have received two postcards from grandma and my roommates were jealous because they hadn't received anything in the mail, and the postcards made me very happy, so tell grandma and grandpa thanks! Reese looks very cute and I really like the name! I only have about 1 minute left so i love all of you and thanks for preparing me so well. Mom I love you so much and you don't need to worry about me, I'm being very well taken care of and I think about you all the time, but I'm not home sick at all. Love all of you! Keep me posted on the Euro Cup and The NBA playoffs, keep up with the soccer Heber and Hyrum and Summer! hunter have a great summer it will be the best time of your life but stay worthy always!
