Hi Family,
Thanks so much for the big poster of Lexie and Mason, I loved it! Mason's getting so tall, maybe he'll be as tall as me some day!  And I'm glad to hear from Michael and that he is doing good in Florida, and I heard from Ryan --he's in Bridgeport Connecticut and loving it! I'm so happy to hear that and so proud of him!
Yesterday we ate with a family and we found out that the lady was Bostroms aunt! That was exciting to hear that they know people from home. We also found out that me and Elder Pulsipher are 5th cousins. We were looking at our pedigree charts and saw that there were same names on both of ours! The line of Josiah Hardy and Ann Denston,  is the same on both!
Sorry my emails are short, we have to do weekly stats and email President Black as well, also I am going to go register to vote so that will take some time. I fixed the brakes on Shari's van, and they needed it really bad. I am sending pictures of the worn out rotor for Dad, Matt and Jordan to look at to show you just how bad they were. The reason was becasue the guy that changed her brakes before put the brake pad in backwards!! I didn't think it was possible but apparently it is. ha ha. I'm glad I have the knowledge to help work on cars when it's needed.
Thanks Dad for that story you shared, that's amazing! I know the Book of Mormon is such a powerful book. I started reading it from the beginning when I got here and I love it!  There's so many lessons to pull out from every chapter, and so grateful for it.
Today for P-Day we are going to the house of the Las Vegas Metro police dispatcher. He is a awesome guy. We are going as a zone and hang out with him today. I love you all, thanks for everything you do for me! Love Elder Smith
