wow.
man im loving the new area and companion things are so great here we are having lots of success. we have 9 or 10 investigators and half of them are close on baptismal dates its real cool.we bike a ton and im feeling better everyday im so sore but its awesome it makes me feel like im accomplishing more.
i just saw the $$$$ in my account thanks for doing that the bike needed some TLC.
I wish i could go and see aly and payt i just sent a letter to payton i need to send one to aly i just dont know her address tell her to write me so i can write her back.
Its so cool here in canyon country its spreed out and some people even have acres as in plural. the other night we biked to the top of one of the hardest hill in our area to go to an appointment and then when we got there they ditched on us so we rode up there for nothing kind of stinky but the ride down was way fun then we biked to the opposite end of our area up seirra highway and saw a real sweet family. its been fun.
i havent met the Lees. they dont live in our area there is like 3 wards here so they are in a different one. but i cant wait to meet them it will be so fun.
so who was that sister missionary comming out from our stake to this mission? and how is lauren hatch doing is she still wanting to go on a mission?
I just wrote jordan an email a little while ago im hoping to get one from mr cheny's cookies in soa paulo brasil.
well whats new at home anything exciting anyone getting married that i know?
It would probably be easier if you sent the shirts if thats ok. i just need some short sleeve and one long sleeve. I dont remember the long sleeve size that i have now but short sleeve is a large and a 16 1/2 neck size so i dont know sleeve length is probably a i dont know somthing long though i love you guys and miss you hope your week goes good.

hey sorry about the no emailing but here in canyon country first ward the elders email on the right day so i didnt get to email so im here at the family history center with the zone leaders emailing you guys. well im on bike finally but i have been having some slight problems, the bike has some hard times I really need to take to the shop and get a tune up. but that brings me to my other problem im out of doe so i was thinking of maybe an early birthday to the elder burbidge birthday fund so i can take care of my bike and stuff. another problem is my white shirt situation is in the lacking. I need some new ones pretty bad and i was wondering if you could send some this way. this biking stuff is a lot harder on the equiptment. 27077 hidaway ave # 58 canyon country, Ca 91351 is the new address.
well canyon country is treating me pretty sweet the biking is nutz its only hill either straight up or straight down. it gets pretty hard core. well we are about to have district meeting and do our stuff but i will now email you on mondays. man i do miss north holly wood alittle bit but the change is cool. well im just gettin in the hang of the new landscape.
well i love you guys and if you could send some help funds i could use them the bike is taking it hard.
love Elder Burbidge

I kinda had to crack up when you said that dad was staying at church and you went to ward conference. i think its awesome that you are in the stake relief society. it will be fun. but that must not be very fun with dad in portland for 3 days but good thing cati is there to love you. how is that dog is she started to get depressed tell her im still thinking about her. I cant lie im pretty tired of the north hollywood area this transfer im pretty sure im gettin transfered which is in like a week well its on the 24 so im hopin for a new adventure. this mourning we went hiking and we went to the top of this mountain and then we stunted down this little bike trail and got it all on video so i will be sending a camera card home pretty soon.
so who were you talking about getting her call here?
well in February ill be stepping up to my year mark pretty crazy. i think after these transfers here in north hollywood all of my transfers hereafter will be relatively short just because i was here so long. but it will all be an adventure. well Im pretty excited this last week we got 3 new investigators. its been awesome we have been blest here lately and we love every second of it we are also setting a baptismal date with a kid who is dieing to be baptised so its pretty cool i think he will be baptized after this transfer so i might not be here but it will be cool nonetheless.
but i really have to go time is almost up but i love you and im thinking of you while you are all alone at home. sometimes i wish i could be all alone. haha but i will talke to you next week love you son.

Hi Jess,
I'm at work so must make this quick. They've been tearing up the walls and junk next door and it's so loud and annoying!! I've got to take some Excedrin!!! I've been soooo sick since last Monday in Utah.
Daddy is in Portland for the next 3 days and the weather has been cold and wet here -it snowed all night last night, then switched to rain and it's a slushy mess!
We saw True Grit in the theatre w/ Tone & Jen. It was good but not as, I liked the girl in the new movie but Rooster never called her "little sister"
Did I tell you I'm in the Stake R.S. now? Last Sunday was my first Ward Conf. I felt a bit out of place ~ the wierdest thing was Sunday morning getting ready to go off to G.H. Ward and dad, home, going to church by himself!!!!! After 18 yrs of him going to Ward Conf. we've switched!!!!
We got home from Ut last Saturday and then we went to a play in Oly w/ the Jackson family. The Wizard of Oz!!! It was so fun. And it was SO nice of them to include us. The house seems extra empty since we've been back. Cati's there to keep us company though.
Interesting I just saw an article about the Sisters attire being changed a bit. They interviewed a girl who just got her call to the San Fernando, CA spanish speaking mission. Cool hey?
Life is great, we're happy and healthy here and living & loving the Gospel!!!
Interesting story emerges from Alma 2-4
Alma just get's made the leader and a guy (Amlici) steps forward wanting to be King. Some of the people are tricked into following him because of his wisdom (worldly) and his cunning ways. -makes you wonder if someone could trick you into following them cause they're good looking and smart??????- They end up fighting it out but are beaten by the Nephites. They were able to beat them because Alma was inspired to have them do some specific things: Prepare to meet them, Arm themselves, Assigned leaders to instruct them, Sent spies to find out what was going on (here's where they found out the Lamanites had joined w/ the Alicites) Mighty Prayer. And Alma says to God "allow me to live so I can be an instrument in your hands to save this people" It says the Lamanites and Amlicites were as numerous as the sands of the sea, but the Nephites (in the strength of the Lord) beat them and watched them take off running!!!!
I LOVE the Book of Mormon. I love the stories that I can take lessons from and use in my life. The story continues and tells of how the Amlicites marked themselves!! They wanted to show everyone that they've turned against God so they marked their own selves!!! Strange, but makes you wonder, do we ever mark ourselves????
Alma3:19 .......every man that is cursed bring upon himself his own condemnation.
What a great leader Alma became, what a great missionary, a shakey start, a fantastic finish.
I love you son,

Hey Dear Elder,
HI!
We are here in UT. We have been since Sat. the first. We are having tons of fun!! I attached a few pictures from our day at the train station.
We went to the train museum today, it was very cool but no way did we get to see and read everything we wanted to. We also saw an indoor skydiving place and I can't wait for you to come home and try it out with me!!!!
Here's a few pictures from our day today.
We didn't get your letter in the mail until today ~sorry it'll be a bit late.
Hope all is well and you're getting back into the swing of things after the Holidays. We pray for you every day and are so grateful you are serving the Lord and blessing our lives!!!
We Love you tons,
