Hey Mom,

That's okay :D Thanks for the Happy Easter this week ;) It was great. Sister Matuck, the lady we "live with" left Easter baskets on our doorstep so when we went to leave that morning we almost stepped on them :D It was a great surprise. Yes I was able to watch all of general conference. I didn't notice the "annual" instead of "semi-annual" but a member did. I have no idea why. I heard a bit about the fridge from Dad. Sunday morning session was pretty dull anyway even though it was still good of course. Hopefully not too much of the food spoiled...but if it stopped working for that long a lot probably did spoil.

HAHAHA I'm glad you were able to use the snow to pack coolers and make a "make shift" refrigerator on the deck ;) Yeah, the wind in California has really been blowing as well! We had a major rain and wind storm last night but today it's all clear :D I would guess that Dad will be successful at reparing the fridge too, but who knows. He is definitely amazing at that sort of thing. lol, hopefully you have a good FHE either way ;)

lol, you're right about transfers. Anxiety is definitely the right word to describe how I feel. I'm sure all will be well. I realize I've made it through worse transfers than this so I'll be fine. If I can handle an emergency transfer where I was ripped out of my area then I can handle this when I'm more prepared ;) Thanks for your comforting words :D

lol, I like how you related the G&G Johnson move information to transfers ;) That's funny. I'm sure all will be well and I am looking forward to having them closer! I have really been feeling sad that I haven't spent more time with them. I don't know what it is, but I'm glad I'll be able to do so easier now!

lol, that is SO cool that you and Dad went to a Michael Buble concert! I've never been to any sort of concert so I would have nothing to compare it too, but sounds like a pretty boring concert. Nothing like a Bon Jovi concert I'm sure ;) I'm glad you thought of me :D I would have loved it, but would probably feel about like you preferring to just listen to the radio/CD

Sounds like some pretty interesting medical technology you are getting to experience. Speaking of which. Sister Smith hasn't had a chance to call Dr. Gaufin. She would love a call from you because she gets busy and forgets to call and she loved talking to you. The doctor has told her she has possible Kidney & Heart failure possibly due to the Chiari malformation. She's pretty scared, but really wants to have surgery for the chiari stuff.

That's awesome that the statistic about new converts made you think of me :D I didn't get to hear that part because we were praying over our lunch. Oh well...I'll live ;)

Love you tons!

Hey Dad,

I'm glad that there was some excitement for conference weekend. That's crazy that it snowed again! We have had a big rainstorm the past two days but today it's all clear.

I got to watch all of conference except for the statistical report which I was sad about but that's okay. I was eating a yummy lunch. I enjoyed the Priesthood choir as well. I even saw somebody I knew in it. Bekah was in the institute choir...but I didn't see her :(

lol, that's awesome that you thought about me a lot during Conference. I thought about the family a ton while I was watching. I think conference makes me more trunky/homesick than anything else on the mission really lol

I LOVED President Monson's priesthood session talk as well! I liked it a lot.

Love,

Elder Jay Davis
