Grady and President and Sister McIntyre on his 21st Birthday!!!

January 23, 2011
Hey everyone! Thanks for all the emails! They were great. Mom, I'll answer the questions first. The package was great! Thank you! Ya, I am planning on going to Byu-I. When are the class deadlines and stuff? I kinda want to check out the majors and classes while I'm here in Japan if the deadline is before I come home. If the deadlines aren't, no biggie. Ya I would like to room with Rahn and Jordan. That would be fun. There are a couple more missionaries that are going to BYU-I that I might want to room with. I'll give you there names. Elder Wiser and Elder McBurney. You can contact their moms or something. My release date is May 27th. I am really fine with supplies. I will probably be throwing away or giving a lot of stuff away. Well, I hope that answered all of it. This week was great! Last Monday I went out as a district to this all you can eat Brazilian restaurant. It was delicious. But what made it even better was that Elder Low's grandma, Keiko, was with us. Pres. McIntyre gives permission to elders to see there grandparents or relatives if they aren't members. He believes way strongly in that type of proselyting. She was way cool and we became good friends. I am going to start to write her and maybe something will come of it. It was also transfer week. Me and Low are staying in Kobe together! I was excited. He is a way good companion and I really want to see a baptism with him. I know that I am here for a reason and I want to do all I can to strengthen Kobe. I love my mission and I am so excited to have the opportunity to serve for 4 more months. I know that miracles happen everyday so there are a ton more for me to be apart of. I love you guys and what a great family you are. I have probably said this a ton but you really are great. Toki san is doing well and should be baptized in 2 weeks or so. I'll keep you updated. Have a great week and know that I love you.
