Pretty crazy at this time next week i will be home. Seems like everyone is doin great. Its gettin pretty exciting and hard not to think about what its going to be like when I'm home and things but we are really lucky and we are staying pretty busy and found a few new people to teach so that's pretty awesome. That's a bummer Riley is grounded. That's awesome that Logan found a concert in Vegas you should have told me who it was haha. That sucks that jazz lost, I really wanted to watch them play but oh well better luck next year. Thats sweet that you guys got my room done. I'm anxious to see what you guys did haha. Good to hear Max and Trent are excited to see me. They are invited to the airport if they would like. That's a pretty cool design for the Gilbert temple that dad sent that would be neat if dad got that one. But its pretty crazy to start wrappin things up. On Monday I go to the mission office and will be interviewed in the morning by the pres., then ship home my bike and stuff i just found out that will only cost 32 dollars so.. and they gave me money to pay for luggage and stuff so no worries, but i will be down in one of my old areas for the 2 days i'm in Tempe. so that will be cool. and on teusday we go to the temple and have a party for all the missionaries who are goin home so i think it will be pretty cool. we have had some really good lesson with the harris family they all made the decision that they are going to be baptized on the same day so thats kind of a bummer that i'm not going to be able to see them get baptized that would be my only complete family but oh well. they asked me yesterday if it would be possible they get baptized the monday before i left but i will be gone haha. and they have some word of wisdom issues to work out. everyone else we are working with is doin good some of them are pretty close to baptism but things never go the way you would wish or else we would have seen a few more baptisms this transfer but no complaints. it brings great joy just bein able to do the good work. but i dont think i have much else to say but i love all you and thanks for the support and examples. i have learned the greatest qualities from you guys so thanks again and will see you soon.
love elder knaphus
