Like Ammon

Dear Family,
          I feel the need to clarify some of the references that Hayden makes in his letters. I’m not sure where the “Whoot, Whoot” came from, but Hayden has been saying that for years. He would use that expression in his text to his friends and it has stuck. He also quotes from a cartoon show called “Phineas and Ferb”. He will put these in quotation marks and name the characters like: Phineas, ferb, Candace, Perry, Isabella, Baljeet and Buford, to name a few. For the 4 months that he waited to enter the MTC he was very careful of the media he watched. This show was always clean and funny. Also he will add quotes from the BYUTV comedy show “Studio C” if you haven’t seen it, you can watch it on youtube. So funny.  Thanks to everyone for the support you give our missionary!

This week was good! And we have been having really good success! Our work from last week really paid off! We had lots of lessons with Members Present and we had lots of really good, spiritual lessons. And of course, because of this success, Satan has been working on us. He's been trying to get us to feel down, frustrated, and have bad feelings like that. After I read the Book of Mormon, I always feel better! It's not just a book. I love it!
Also, I've been working on being humble. Like Ammon. I know that I am nothing without the Lord, and that everything good that is going on, the success we've been having is because of the Lord. I need to keep realizing that and working hard. I honestly feel like I'm not being the best companion I know I can be, and the best companion I know God knows I can be. I'm looking for ways to serve Elder Duffy.
I love you all so much! And Tell Jayden and Jared I love them too! I can't wait to hear all about them!
Haha this picture is more for Carter than anyone. But it's cool!
Love ya all!

Elder Allen:)

This is really for Carter.  Texas sized!
