Hey Family!
how's everybody Doing?
Well basically all i've done is studied and taught haha!
This last week has been fun i guess nothing way exciting yet, But... shhh today we planted a bunch of alarm clocks in these guys rooms which are set to go off at 3 in the morning :)
I am glad to announce that i think i've only fell asleep once so far but, that it wasn't for more than five minutes which is sad but ok at the same time :) Gym is 5 times a week which is nice and last time i went outside to the sand volleyball courts, but, the people i played with weren't the greatest but it was ok because i played with a couple of girls from germany who were hilarious...(it's not like i'm checking them out or anything its...ya whatever) uhh i kill basically everyone at basketball and thats fun :)
the last couple weeks we got to teach the 2nd lesson which went way well and we totally rocked it... it was cool and way helpful....
The temple has been awesome i just barely went and its so rejuvenating :) anywayz i think that i'm going to have to think of some more things to tell you.... uhhh i'm sending my memory card home as of today so if you want pics talk to the parents, and i got the package thank you....i could really use some new gym shoes and i don't know whether they sell them here so i'll get back to you on that. hmm...
well thanks for everything and amelia....you better write me back this week or else!!!
Love Ya, Elder Laws

well so basically the truth of it is that i can only read emails on my p-days because thats the only time we get access to myldsmail.net because it kind of remembers when our p-days are... so ya... i can send emails only on pday, i'm only supposed to write any letters on my p day also. I can receive and read letters on any day though YAY!!! :) . how's it going... sounds like a lot of fun stuff has been done, painting and all :).
me and my roommates are probably the most creative people on the entire planet :) so far we've made a refridgerator, a basketball court, foursquare, and a kind of foursquare tennis, pingpong mix thats pretty fun. and of course theres always the fact that we're learning the gospel and stuff. :P
I need the rest of the fams email addresses, i have keesh and dad and mom and jesse but none of the rest, so pass this on i guess.
this last wednesday we -me and my companion- did the best teaching that we've done so far in the TRC, it was on the second lesson which is the Plan of Salvation, and even though the person was probably lds and just acting (which most people at the TRC are) we seriously like made her think about even some pretty simple questions and had some awesome scriptures and the Spirit was so strong it was awesome!!
way fun :)
so about my district.
Elder Waldron: he's from Las Vegas, and likes to rock climb and mountain bike, he's my compy
Elder Johnson is from Colorado Springs, Colorado and was a wrestler who placed at state and nationals, i'm pretty sure that we would definately have been friends if we went to high school together. his companion is Elder Segura, From Chicago, Illinois. he's hispanic and speaks spanish and english. he... plays all sorts of stuff i think, although (shhh) he's not that good... he's a funny guy though.
Elder Wade is from Connecticut and i'm not sure what he did i think that he played some basketball (he's probably the next best in our district because he actual passes and stuff) he likes to sing... then theres His Comp. Elder Sullivan, he wrote you guys.. his entire existence here at the MTC is determined by whether he gets letters or not so he writes like 50 a day. he played lacrosse and speed skated and tries to play basketball :) and i beat him :)
Elder Bellamy is from centerville UT and he played soccer and he's tall and right now him and his comp are the Zone Leaders. Elder Howell is from orem UT, and pretty much studies the whole time and ya... i'm not sure what he did in high school.
most of the them went to some high school. and only elder segura and elder sullivan havne't really ever had french but it's all fun anywayz...
Thanks for the Cookies treats are always welcome. here's a list of some of the stuff i could use:
some lyrics possibly, like disney songs (the good ones) another pair of shorts and a t-shirt Memory Card for camera XD Toys...liek balls maybe email addresses and duct tape... :)
my time is almost up to i'm going to go have a good one and i'll write sometime. letters too.

Hey pops!
Whats up?
This is your son thats on a mission :) How are you doing? Life here is pretty good, so far we have done basically nothing but study and teach and study and sleep and eat and etc... i just thought that i'd let you know that this is my email account now (mvlaws@myldsmail.net) and it will be easier and quicker for me to send you mail via this. :) I'm only allowed to write on p-days and i'm only allowed to write to family but i can receive from friends and i'll try to pass it along to them but i would like it if you passed it on to family and maybe tell keshia to contact my friends somehow? anywayz today we went to the temple to do endowments! it was way spiritual as always and i can't wait for next week. We went to the RC the other day for the first time which is the Reference center, its where we call people to make sure they received like bibles and BOM's and dvd's and stuff and also where we receive those calls etc. I was way nervous of course but after we got started it turned out to be a really great experience. On wednesday our teacher kind of challenged us... he basically said that if we didn't know the church was true already that we needed to find out fast, and he challenged us to pray... guess what? its true :)
thats all for now. tune in next week for life of a missionary at the MTC

hopefully your favorite son :p

May 30, 2008
Fam: Hey how's it going? Life goes on here @ the MTC although slowly.... A kid who's been here a while said this: "Days are like weeks, weeks are like days." It's crazy but I've been here for a whole 9 days already. We had our first teaching experience French contacting and it went better than I expected I must admit. The gym time is the best by far though. It's just basketball but it's way fun. My roomate and a couple of kids in the zone have labeled me 3/4 black. I've had a couple of way good games. It's fun. :) Anywayz life's pretty close to the same every day. THE END -Elder Laws
Keshia! Je suis missionaire de l'Eglise de Jesus-Christ des Saints des dernier jour. C'est bizarre. Merci pour le post. Je t'aime. -Elder Laws
Je sais que Jesus-Christ est notre' Redempteur et de l'Evangile de Jesus-Christ est vrai. Je sais que Dieu a' retabi de l'Evangile por l'intermediare Joseph Smith et je sais que Joseph Smith et Thomas S. Monson est vrai prophete. Je sais que c'est vrai grace de Saint-Esprit. J'aime Jesus-Christ pour l'Expiation. Av nom de Jesus-Christ, Amen.
We also got this letter:
Hello! This isn't even Elder Laws companion but I'm in his district. I ran out of people to write to so I figured hey, why not write the Laws. Your son/brother is cool! We are doing laundry right now and this whole idea started with us missionaries joking that one of us was going to write Elder Laws' sister! But then I just decided to write the whole family. 'Lawsy' is pretty good at B-ball. When him and I play we are unstoppable. My name is Elder Sullivan, by the way. I have a bunch of family in Leeds, Utah. I'll end this now but feel free to write back. Send cookies & pictures & stuff. Au revoir and bon chantz. -Elder Sully
