NO NO NO! it's not 230 for the next two visits, it's total for the next two appointments... but STILL, I didn't really think that I had that many cavities. plus she said that she "found it" and that it wasn't on the x-ray. but for sure I can ask to see the x-rays next time. that's not a problem at all. especially if it's going to save me some massive buckage like 230. cause you know, that's one fourth of the JSX amplifier. ;) ha ha ha! oh, another thing. my dentist isn't even a guy, it's a LADY! it's kinda weird. but they were also recommended by one of the members of the ward/stake mission leader... he said they were pretty good... Buuuut, I guess you never know? I'll check it out. :'(
so for Annie, ANYTHING from you would be fantastic, so don't worry about it if you can't get anything spiffily fancy. it's all good. HA HA HA! she sent you the video of me and Elder Harvey beat boxing? HA HA! that's great! there's also another member in there that I think was doing it with us too. it should be Jonathan, a younger guy that comes out with us to appointments sometimes :D
well... if you DID send me a family foto, I didn't get it. xD ha ha ha! I DID get some with Robin Donny and Hannah, but not with you guys (you know, the parents) so that would be nice. you know. just throwing that out there.
wait. Bryan and Bree told you some of the stuff that's inside the package?! and they STILL haven't sent it. gosh. those bums. I wish I had more of a way to bug them so they would sent it. but yeah... I did write a bit more of a personal letter this time... Did she really not get what the sticky note letter meant?! are you serious? aw jeeze, that bum.
oh, the letter from the mission pres? yeah, I had a chance to read a little bit of it. I mean, not the WHOLE thing, but a bit of it, yes.
SO, for a little bit of news from myself:
we've been recently teaching a really good friend of Lester's. now, we've only gotten the chance to have ONE lesson with him so far, but in that lesson we were able to place a baptismal date for the 11th of April, but he called us up on Sunday night and asked us if he could move it to the 27th of march. wow! ALRIGHT! heh, that's perfectly fine with us! :D now we just have to find time to teach him before then. xD but for the rest of the week, we've been having to do lots of finding cause, we DO have investigators, but half of them aren't progressing very much... some of them just wont come to CHURCH! BLAH!
but yes. you get to go to Cali for an ELEMENTARY school reunion?! WHAT!? that's crazy. do you know if Pioneer Valley does those? xD ha ha ha! that would be sweet.
blarg! I'm sorry I have to cut this one short this week, I have to email dad and Donny too
So, I LOVE YOU! more than Bryan loves ME! :'( *sniff sniff* ha ha ha!

Mark 1:4 and 9
4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
Christ was not baptized for the remission of sins because he had none. But, as Nephi recounts, he was baptized for the following reasons:
(1) As a token of humility before the Father;
(2) As a covenant that he would keep the commandments;
(3) As a prelude to receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost;
(4) To gain entrance to and be saved in the kingdom of God, for no one, not even the Son of God, can so obtain without baptism; and
(5) As a pattern and an example for all men, and so that he could say: “Follow thou me” and also, “He that is baptized in my name, to him will the Father give the Holy Ghost, like unto me; wherefore, follow me, and do the things which ye have seen me do.” (See 2 Ne. 31:5–12.)
