Back and forth...

Some cute messages between Brenden and his mom (via email).

Mom:

We like letters.

Morgan likes letters.

Need stamps?

Brenden:

I made you a graph of my time usage to help explain why you haven't gotten a letter since I've been in the field. I'll try to send it soon.

Mom:

what should I put in your christmas package????

You CAN or CAN'T have an ipod with church music on it???

give me your santa list!!!

Brend:

yes i can have an ipod. that would be nice to have. Other than that I don't really know... I bought a gps already so i don't need that. Honestly the best thing would be money to buy a couple clothing items (since I'm no longer the same size).

Brenden:

packages should be sent to the mission office, not my apartment address. The mission office address is:

Elder Brenden Oxborrow

470 Rue Gilford, Suite 300

Montreal, QC H2J 1N3

Canada

did you send it by local post?

mom:

I sent it via Express Mail

Brend:

Hope that works. Canada can be picky with some things, and the mission office isn't very flexible with things on their end. 

mom:

it will be... I paid more to get it there... 

Brend:

If you sent it to the mission office it has to be there by the 18th or I won't get it..

How do you make gravy for biscuits and gravy?

Brend:

do you still exist? When should I call home on Christmas?

Mom:

HELLO my brenden friend!!!!

I would love to skype on Christmas if that is a possibility... if not, you know us... we are up early.  we get into utah again at midnight on Christmas eve... so maybe give us until 7 or 8am (9-10 your time).

Brend:

I don't have a skype account...

mom:

should I make one :)

Brend:
