Mom!
This past week was way fun!!! Oh I got the package last Tuesday!!! That was by far the fastest anything has ever gotten here!!! It only took like 12 days or something like that!!! I was so pumped! It was perfect I took all that stuff on the "campout" and didn't have to buy anything! Except for these sweet Korean pants that were ten bucks that are so warm ha they're so cool! But everything was perfect in the package and I already made French toast and peaches and cream! It was way good!!! I usually make a shake every morning so its way nice to be able to mix it up a little bit!! Oh I have a favor! Ha I couldn't remember the English word for favor for a second there! Cause in Korean it's like a request ?? Ha that was funny I stared at the screen for a while trying to figure out what it was called! Anyways I want a picture of all of our guns! Koreans think it's crazy cause they don't have any cause it's against the law! Oh and could you also send some of the four wheelers and the other toys and stuff?? So this weekend we went on what we thought was camping haha it's a little bit different in Korea though! We thought we were going out to the woods and like really go camping and we were super pumped for it! That's not what happened but it was still way fun! Ha so we left Friday night and drove for like 3 hours to where we were sleeping, it turned out to be a bunch of apartment things! ha we were so shocked!!! but the bathroom in it was like 5 times the size of ours and I was way shocked then I thought about it and realized it was still a way small bathroom compared to any of ours!! haha so we woke up the next morning and drove to this ranch! We went to the top of this sweet mountain and we could see the east sea(Sea of Japan )or whatever it is called! I got some sweet pictures I'll try to send them! It was way fun then we hiked down the mountain and drove back that took a long time to get back once we hit the city cause traffic was horrible! I can't believe it's the last week of October already! what the? months zoom by! 2 more and I'll be calling home! crazy!!!!!! hmm we have a Halloween party this weekend! ha it should be pretty cool! I'm dressing up as a girl! I'll send you a picture maybe :) I hope everything is going good at home and I hope someone could actually hit something on the deer hunt besides dad ( I've seen you all shoot) I love you all!

QUESTIONS THAT I HAD ASKED CHASE AND HIS ANSWERS
TELL ME ABOUT WHO YOU ARE TEACHING? We found two new investigators, we have two that could get baptized anytime they just don't think they are ready yet! It's hard.. It takes a lot of faith!! Ha what else do you want to know?
HOW IS THE LANGUAGE COMING? It's hard but I've learned a lot! Everyone here thinks I'm great at Korean. I'm pretty close with the people that started their missions in January.. but they can understand more than me! I'm trying to be humble though so forget I said that first part.
WHO DID YOU GO CAMPING WITH? We went camping with our whole stake.
WHAT ARE YOU AND YOUR COMPANION DOING ON YOUR P*DAY? We have to go clean a church right now then after we might go bowling if we have time left.. P-day is short ahah.

My First Letter From Chase
I finally got a letter from Chase since he has been in Seoul. Here are a few things that Chase wrote about:
Today it has been raining non-stop, like crazy!! The streets are all flooded! They had to sand bag all of the subway entrances so that water wouldn't go down them! This transfer has gone by so fast! The weeks come and go like they never happened! In our mission we have this thing called "Pass Off" that you have to finish before you can become a senior companion! I have been working on it super hard this whole transfer and I have caught up to most of the people who got here one transfer before ( 6 weeks) me! I was pretty shocked when I found that out! Tomorrow is our big soccer game. If it doesn't get canceled because of the rain! I'm very excited for that.I have been playing a lot of ping pong, I use a Korean style paddle. They are legit. I am getting way good at it! Korea has awesome fruit! It is all Huge! I love all of it! Today was the first day off for the holiday. Here is what happened to us in one night! First we had to take off our shoes and wade through water to get through a hallway in the subway station because it was flooded! Then, on the subway a bum was sitting on the floor playing his guitar! He kept yelling at me to give him money! Everyone on the subway was laughing! It was hilarious! Then, we were walking to meet up with some Elders for dinner and we turned around a dark corner and this girl was just sitting in a chair in the dark! We both noticed that she was a prostitute so we ran away as fast as we could! Ha pretty crazy Huh? Today was Che-suk (Thanksgiving). We had a sports day and our zone worked everybody. Soccer and Ultimate Frisbee! It was super fun and I got to see my buddies from the MTC!! We are going to our bishops house to eat with their family. They are so nice. I love them! Tomorrow we have training from 9-4! So long! That is OK it will be good. We just got back from our Bishops house. It was amazing. We ate this really good meat, it is a kind of beef. I seriously Love Koreans they are the best. I think it is because they are all so humble. A random stranger would give you his shirt off of his back! Or his umbrella so that you could stay dry. In one day we had four umbrella's given to us! Tell Haden how proud I am of him and that I love him!
