(From the mom: My Disclaimer- I have no idea where Alex gets his titles for his letters. He also sent me a bunch of pictures with no names or what is going on, so I won't post them except for one. If you really want me to post pics he took of horses in Halloween Costumes let me know.)

I just typed up a whole thing and it all got deleted because the server expired or some other nonsense, so I'm gonna start sending pictures. More e-mails will follow hopefully.
Never mind the photos then. If I can only send two pictures per email it's not worth the effort.
So I'm going to summarize what happened since this stupid myldsmail thing is retarded and I don't want to type up everything all over again.
It's been a long week, we' taught a lot, have 3 investigators lined up for baptism. We had a bed bug infestation, and the mission office still won't relocate us out of our apartment to another even after the flooding, the wet mildew carpet smell, the bed bugs, and the general state of crappiness. But they did relocate some sisters, one, the sole reason of them having to carry their bikes down some stairs every day. Lame...
On Saturday we did some service and were horse judges for a riding school that a member ran. The riding students, about 7 or so 14-15 year old girls dressed up their horses in for Halloween and the 6 of us missionaries were judges, so we spent about 5 hours doing that, food and games, setting up and taking down stuff. It was some good "service". We're required to do like 4 hours a week and that did the trick.
We had zone conference in College Station, there I met a Sister Magby, who went to Louisiana Tech with you, dad. And had apparently also seen you recently at education week. Or so she says and told me that I look exactly like you and whatnot, and that you were a crazy kid back then. I didn't believe her.
I'm out of time, it's a short entry but like I said I already typed a whole bunch of stuff only to have the server expire. Stupid thing. I'll try to send more pictures. Peace out.
