Happy 2 months!

Dear Family and friends 

HAPPY 2  MONTHS!!!!!!!!!!! 



Hope all is well. Tucson will be missed a lot. But oh well... you're moving on me, that's fine with me. There nothing I can do about it. Enjoying it here here in Jackson, Wyoming. We went on a double decker bus on Saturday, and out to a place called Mormon Row. It was just an old barn. We have taught a lot of lessons this week . I am excited to be on my mission and can't believe that I am two months out-- that's crazy. I am one/12 of the way done. Way to go me. I am enjoying it so far so good. We are going to Idaho Falls on Thursday because Elder Adkins has an appointment with an eye doctor.  
One of our Spanish Elders got transferred and the elder that is here now is from Peru. He is pretty cool, I like him a lot. I am speaking at District Meeting tomorrow. I do not have much else to say. Ben and Lauren, you guys have been married a month pretty cool! 

LOVE, ELDER HAWKINS

July 15

Hey how is everything going in Tucson, even though you guys are almost done living there?  Moving on my mission is sad, but i will get over it. How is it going with the move and everything? I hope all is well I think about you guys a lot, I LOVE YOU. I am still in Jackson getting trained, my companion is now our new Distract Leader-- crazy right? I am loving it here in Jackson. I am so happy to be on this mission right now. I am hoping to get a care package or something. I need snacks to eat.  We are going to the Rexberg temple, and we are really busy with a lot of things to do. My mission has flown by-- without the support of my companion and you guys I do not know where I would be! I am really happy to be preaching the gospel to people who need to hear it. 
I am really excited for your move. Tell Zack and Dad to write to me this week. And send snacks!  Have a good week, guys!
LOVE, ELDER HAWKINS

We have been busy busy, and we are super excited tonight to watch fireworks. I have been in the mission field one month. I am so excited to share this gospel with everyone. We are having a BBQ tonight for the 4th of July it should be a great turn out. I am happy to be a missionary here in Jackson. I never would have thought I would be serving in Wyoming but that's where the Lord wants me. Enjoying my mission, it is going by pretty fast. I have not heard of any sports stuff but the gospel is more important. I love you guys I got to go

Happy July 4th!

Dear Family and Friends,
It been a good week here in Jackson, Wyoming. We have two P-DAYS this week, but I do not know if I can e-mail on the 4th of July or not. I have been working really hard. My mission is flying by, and I am loving it. Elder Adkins and I are doing great. We get along so well. We have had lessons left and right. BUSY ALL THE TIME. I am loving it here in Jackson. It's a great mission so far. We are visiting people like crazy as well. We have a car but sometimes we ride the bus. The bus is sometimes a good idea if we find people that might be interested in learning about the church. Pizza over at the Pierson's house was so good. I hope all is well with Ben and Lauren HAWKINS (that's CRAZY to say!)  Crazy to think when I get back they will be married for two years already. How is Chris doing?  I am hoping he will do good staying in Tucson. How is my buddy Zack doing? Dad I love you and I miss you and I hope I get to fly home on a sweet JET, LOL. Grandma I got your letter from last week it was good, thank you! Weddings are happening like crazy. I want see more wedding pics of Ben and Lauren, I love them. How is Daisy doing? I miss her, and I hope she is going to enjoy Kansas. We are busy today and are going shopping for FOOD YUMMY FOOD. When you are a missionary you can't say no to food. I gotta go!


LOVE ELDER HAWKINS
