Hello Family!

Wow I cannot believe it is here. Thanks so much for all the support. it was fun to see  you guys yesterday and hard to say goodbye. i have a letter coming for mom dad and em.

everything is going well. i don't do anything with french though. i am kind of sad about that part. my entire district is english speaking but we are all going to a different language mission. it is because we are fast tracking. we just get the 2 weeks of english. My companion is Elder Jenkins. he is from Florida. we have a lot of fun together. thank goodness for p day. just doing my wash right now. i met sister tribe who was with natalie. she loves her. i will be flying out with her. I get my travel plans tomorrow so in a week i will let you know what is happening. I am having some trouble attaching my pictures to this email. Not really sure how it will happen. I will ask around and hopefully get you some pictures before i leave a week from Tuesday.

How is everything at home? how was your birthday mom? get any good presents?

We went to the temple today. what a blessing. it was so good to go and just relax a little bit. I am in a classroom for a really long time. like really really really long. and you know me I can hardly sit still for long. thanks for the emails. I noticed i got mail but i can't read it until tonight. I haven't got natalies package yet. we keep missing the elders. i will probably get it today. we go to the french district a lot because they are fun to talk to. Everyone here is talking about my graduation. i think i am the youngest person in my zone, and possibly the mtc. all of the guys in my district thought it was the coolest thing that i hadn't graduated yet.

When i got back from grad yesterday i had to tell the branch president and his counselors and their wives all about it. the men didn't really care but their wives were so funny. they kept saying how proud they were to have me in their branch. it was funny.

is it possible for you to send this to everyone? i will try and email everyone separately but it will be good to get a list going. It is weird seeing so many familiar faces. Elder Savage from American fork is in my branch. I have seen all of the sisters in our ward here that are still in the mtc. I will most likely see dani next week. too bad i will be gone before david bean comes in.

How is summer break mom? i know you are probably revealed as ever. how is jean's family and baby porter? My thoughts and prayers are with them.

sorry i am having trouble uploading pictures. it is dumb i can't figure it out.

thanks for sending that email to madame. I say her at graduation and thanked her. She is a great lady. I am excited to go to Montreal. it could not come any sooner.

em what are you up to now? keep playing music on your guitar. mom loves it. and she will need it. you will probably have to play louder and longer to compensate for the lose.

Oh i remembered what i need. an alarm clock and a sewing kit. just in case my button comes off or my pants rip or another such problem.

I am glad that i get to travel with a lot of missionaries. well more then just me haha. i have counted 4 of us. and 3 are sisters. i have to find my elders! good thing i have my etch a sketch. though i cannot use it here.

mom i am trying to keep my room clean! i don't really want to unpack all of my stuff because i will just pack it back up in 10 days. I am starting to like the mtc but i am really glad that i only have to stay here until the 11th. Dad thanks for being my companion yesterday! i am also starting to get used to having a comp all the time. Once you get used to it, it is not so bad. elder Jenkins is pretty funny. he was a swimmer for byu and is quite toned. i am the youngest and also the smallest elder in my zone haha. there are some big boys here. I was eating breakfast one morning and i sat next to my comp and this big Samoan guy. he looked at me and then said you don't eat much. then everyone started laughing haha it was funny. we are having a good time. My comp and i refuse to sing the hymns in English. i bought a french hymnal and some stamps. i am getting used to everything. all of the buildings look the same but i am starting to get it

My comp and i went for a run this morning. it was really nice. We both are kind of a.d.d. so we have to go running. tomorrow we get gym time so we are going to go kick some missionary heiny on the pitch. that means soccer field mom. Ah i miss you guys but It is starting to get better. the card em made for me nearly had me crying. the elders in my room were looking at me funny. thanks em it meant a lot. there is more in a letter about that.

mom sorry i forgot your birthday! it was a crazy day. unless you want like a french book i don't have a present yet. but it will come.

Mom i am trying to think of everything i have done so this email looks long. haha the food is alright. don't get your hopes up. that's something that i had to learn the hard way. We have some pretty funny pictures to send. i am mad i can't figure out how to send them. i am going to go see if i can't figure it out.

it is fun to be in a ESL district because i get to learn Portuguese, Spanish, french, and i guess English. sometimes we say to the Italian elders rivaderchi! i don't know how to spell it but sound it out. It means see you soon but we say it to greet them. they get so mad at us and we just laugh haha. oh good times with the Italians. the Chinese speakers are fun to.

well lads and lasses it is time to get my warsh. haha warsh. i will talk to you in a week. i will write some letters and send them off. i will need to send some books home before i ship off.

elder cameron
