Circus out of Africa in our neighborhood

Hello Everyone! How ya going? Everything is very well here, except my back is still sore as. I saw sister Richards at zone Conference this past week and she told me to go to the doctors this week. So don't worry about me, I'll get it taken care of. Dad how is your ankle?
There is so much to talk about I don't know where to start! I will begin by letting you know how m love the gospel and the blessings that flow from it, and how it brings people together.
Hope everyone keeps warm back there! I miss the snow! Friday night after zone conference our district (12 missionaries) went out to eat at this nice Portuguese bbq chicken place called 'Nandos'. The TV there was on the Winter Olympics. I didn't watch it at all. I just know that the Bird contending for the women's half pipe (snowboarding) is a Mormon girl from NSW(New South Wales) Australia and she won the Gold Medal! Sweet Eh? I wanna go snowboarding so bad!
Mom I don't have worms at all, so you don't have to worry about that. It's fun having them though everyone should try it. Its the best way to lose weight!
Wow is our neighborhood turning into a Zoo or something - its got turkeys and cougars walking around that's awesome. Would someone please get a picture of the cougar and send it to me... be careful... don't get eaten!
How old are Marks cousins that live across the street from us now in the Wilkinson's old place?
John and Sierra, How do you like your new place? Are you settling in all right? I still haven't received your Christmas Package. I went and checked at our flat on dead st. and it wasn't there. Do you have the tracking number I asked you about last week? How is Kyler Feeling? I've been praying for him all week. You look after him for me.
Mum, I haven't sent that tape to Matt yet, but will soon, I have to finish the one I'm sending him 1st. Then I'm making one for you! I've been praying for your guys health and strength and that you will find work. God Speed.
Thanks everyone for the mail this week! The mission office sent up stuff for zone conference and I got stuff from Mark, Matt, and Stacey! Then the next day in the post I got cards from Mum and Tauni! I love mail, thank you so much!
Especially you Mark! It was good to hear from you! Thanks Heaps for the Birthday Present! You be careful up there in the sky Junx. Next time you talk to Kelsey tell her very nicely that she had better send me something! haha.
Matt if you could send me back that flash drive that I sent you so I can put some more pictures on it to send you that would be lovely.
Please everyone take note of my new addy on my blog... I no longer live on Dean st. I am still getting stuff forwarded from that address. If everyone could send stuff to my new 'Hassell St.' Addy, thanks.
Dad, thanks heaps for the BYU update, it sounds like we are doing great! Cheer for me! Go Cougs! I am anxious to receive your tape! I'll try to start yours today!
Lisa - it was great to hear from you. I understand you would have a busy life with those awesome 6 kids of yours. Don't worry if you don't always have heaps of time to write. Just give those kids hugs for us and make sure they stay in school and keep coming to church. A lot of kids in our branch here start going less active in their early teens it is pretty sad - so I'm just thinking of my nieces and nephews - I know they are stalwarts though! tell 'em I say whats up and that I love 'em to death. "I don't love ya to death, 'cause I love you to life" - Talib Kweli. Its good to see they're all playing basketball! Its Miller Time! Lisa, give gramp's a big hug for me. He is in our prayers.
Matt did Mark tell you about AVA? Crazy sweet huh? Did it end up coming out on FEB 14th?

Matt! - how come you get mail from everyone? Kelsey still hasn't written me. I'm sure it is all in the post on the way here...Matt congrats on Shad'e Baptism, sounds golden!
Mom, and Dad, how was it seeing Leslie off at the MTC? Do they do it differently now? I heard you don't go inside to drop your missionaries off anymore... is that true?
Matt good to hear you ate some Hose! I think that what they call horse. What did you think? I'm working on a sweet tape for you so don't worry.
Scoty!!!!!!! I'm so psyched to hear you have your papers in. I can't wait untill you and Chris join us in the field. What is this that you wrote Matt and not me? I heard that the East won it again this year... GO EAST!
Ok.. now lets get down to the nitty gritty... We had zone conference and a baptism for Kylee Hayter on Friday! It was so tight, there were 12 missionaries there for it and we all got up and sang called to serve for her. I gave a talk on faith and Elder Paki confirmed her the next day in church. The work here is great and the members are really getting excited to do missionary work! I love Rocky and our Zone conference was inspiring. I'm out of time.

Love you all, Elder Prina
