No Group email this week!!!
Hey Buddy,
I got your letter this week:). Last week I got one from 4 months ago, and yesterday I got one from 4 weeks ago...so I give up trying to figure out the mail system over there:). Anyway, I loved the post it notes, I thought that was super funny. It was also one of my favorite letters. You apologized for "ranting" but honestly I loved it. You spoke so honestly about the challenges that missionaries in Ukraine face. It also touched on so much of Ukrainians and their beliefs. I loved the entire letter and didn't feel like you were ranting at all. Thanks for sending it! I will probably type it up so I can add it to the blog. Reading it made me even more proud of you. I can't imagine the challenges you have faced out there. It is amazing to think of all the things you have been doing without me. It's strange, but I am so proud and happy about it too.
Well last week it snowed and this week on Friday it was 87* so that is Utah spring for ya:). We sat by the pool on Friday with my sisters and the kids. The water is still cold because our heater broke and it needs to be replaced. The kids still jumped in, but didn't last long.
Everyone is doing good. Josh took his AP test and said it went well. Jacob had 2 basketball games, they won the first but were super tired for the second game so they lost that one. He made several shots though including a couple 3 pointers. I signed Jacob and Jordy up for track that starts in June. Cam and Kaestli are going to do tennis in June as well. I think Brayden and Zach may play too.
Everything else is about the same. I am super excited about skyping my 2 missionaries on Mother's Day! I can't believe it will be my last Skype with you! I am so excited about that!.
So big discussion items this week.
1-First is Skype. Do you remember your password and log in info?
Your Skype account name is: jaxon.jorgensen
With your password being: byucougars1
I am Julie.toone3 but we should still be saved as contacts. Just email me at this email (jjtoone@gmail.com) when you get on and it will send me an alert right when the email comes in, and we will hop on. YAY... I can't wait!
What time will you be able to Skype with us? Our church is at 1-4 so if it is earlier that will be better, but I will make anything work! I can't wait to Skype with you. We need to prepare questions again, you too. But we also need to plan on a couple minutes for college discussions! It's so hard going back and forth.
2-College- Dad is going to send you a good email with about this, but basically don't stress about it. We figured out how to get everything in your "cart" and then when it's time to register we just click submit and the computer does the work for us.
3 ---you had several religion classes selected. You only want to take one per semester, dad said they are harder than you think and it makes the credits weird somehow. We will get you in the bofm first.
4 ---you have to have 15 credits for the regency scholarship so we will make sure it is above that.
5 ---we found a good Russian class that is 4 credits and after you take some tests and it gives you like 20 credits. It should be easy for you too.
6 ---Dad's main concern is that it is an easy semester for you to transition. Some of the classes you had selected are harder courses. So trust us to set you up with some easy ones and a couple fun ones. Right now he has you going for the ROTC PT class that is required, but also a ballroom class and a basketball class.
7 ---you should be able to log on to your byu account and figure out where your cart is of classes we selected. I'll take a pic of it and send it to you just incase you can't figure it out. But remember that the president said you can take all the time you need to prepare for college. Once we have this figured out you shouldn't need to do much more this summer for it.
8 ----You should email the AFROTC lady though. I'll send you that info.
9 Anything that you definitely want to do for the first semester or are you good with us figuring it out for you?
10-Recordings
11-pics....make sure you send them to just me and authorize me to view them. Last week it didn't work again, so I went into your account and downloaded them that way so that I could add them to the blog. I like to keep it up to date so it will be done when you get home.
12-More details on Bogdan?
13-How are things with your comp?
14-=Are you still happy and positive?
15 The newsletter mentioned someone having bedbugs...was it you guys?
16- Mikey, Josh and Jacob want you to issue a challenge based on your "tell Mikey I'm coming for him" comment. So they said, name the challenge and they will start preparing for it;)
17-Special message to me:)
I Love you so much! I can't wait to talk to you again next week. I am getting so excited for you to come home. I can't wait to meet so many of the missionaries. It's so close!
I'm so proud of you. Keep doing your best!
I love you,
Mom

13 we are getting along really well.
14Yes
15nope, it was Elder SNows Old appartment apparently
16 Ill have to think about what I can beat him at... Probably a Mile Run, Push up contest(Dont tell them I am up to 120 now) and tell him he can pick two others. I have thrown the Gauntlet.
17 youre the best mom EVER and I am so grateful for all of the help you give me, the classes look good, I am actually starting to really feel good about the ROTC because I will potentially graduate with 0 debt and all of the other stuff. Thanks so much for the help and the packages, sometimes I feel bad for being an expensive child, but I am so grateful:)
