It's P-Day and my companion and I are picking up mail at the Missionary Office. My uncles came over today and helped my mom move the big furniture in the basement. Now she has to put everything away. It should be all set up soon. My mom is getting so excited to get it all done. My birthday is coming up on July 3rd. It seemed like whenever we would plan a party for my birthday there wouldn't ever be very many friends show up, because of the holiday. This time I'll be sharing with my companion. I went to the missionary office and mom sent me some money so that my companion and I could all go out to a nice place for dinner, sunglasses, little odd's and ends. Supposed to be a surprise, but on my birthday mom sent me a cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory. Mom says she misses me like crazy! She said I could walk in a room and light it up. During the summertime we had a big back yard to play in. We also had a huge deck to be able to barbecue and share good times as family and friends.
