IRON CHEF'S IN THE HOUSE

Hey Sorry Family,

We usually email later in the day here in Birmingham so now ya know it won't be early morning !

My new address is 1067 A Villa Rica Ct, Birmingham Albama 35215 so get the letters comming.  LOL  Our apartment is way deceee, nicest place I have stayed in so far!  Yes Mom we have laundry here too!

So you heard the news, I am Senior Companion woot woo!  Ha Ha!  Elder Beck is a good Elder, fresh out of the Provo MTC, one of the newest of the BAW Argentina "Visa Waiters".  We are we are both new to this area and so the past few days Elder Beck and I have just been going around getting familiar with the area!  We are just doing our best working to find people to teach!

The computers here in the library remain as outdated as the previous ones, I can't see any of the pictures your sending. As for the ties just ask Misty she will be able to help make the choice she knows what I like.

Our other roomates are Elder Tolman from Layton, and Elder Thurston from San Diego who is also brand new to the field like Elder Beck,  Elder Tolman is about to hit his year mark next month!  Can't wait to celebrate that one!  The pictures I have attached are First Elder Pili and Elder Banks and I, they stayed in Bessemer/Hueytown. Second Elder Aaron Ingersol and I at Transfer meeting.  He went to Lone Peak High School as well and was a Senior when I was a Sophmore, small world it is.  Third - Elder Crwother and I at Transfers, he went on to Cater Hill and Fourth my new roomies Elder Beck, Me, Elder Tolman and Elder Thurston, we ROCK.  I absolutely dig Elder Tolman though!  We get along really well and he is absolutely hilarious!!!!!!!  He is also a really really good cook too!  He cooks us lot of things like Chicken Alfredo, and morning pancakes, however he only eats wheat products... so I give him alot of flack about that!  I did make chicken quesadillas for everyone the other night and they loved them, I guess I am a pretty good cook after all!  I am working out and by the end of the transfer I am going to be ripped!  Elder Tolman and I wake up every morning at 6 and work out, the kid is JACKED, he is just so cut!

I spoke in Sacrament meeting yesterday, yep!  They asked all the new Elders to speak.  I decided to talk about the Restoration hoping to to get the members excited about Missionary work!  It's so new here I don't know else to tell you, this is about all I can really think of that has happened in the past few days.  I will tell you more about the Ward as I get to know it.

I will get the postcards like you mentioned and write soon!  I am sending Dad a Fathers Day card but he can't open it till FathersDay!

Sorry it's short but gotta run mom!

Love you!!!!!

Love,
Elder Draper
