Elder Blake Bigelow - Email dated Monday March 31

Here is Blake's most recent email.  I thought it would be a good idea to post the family missionaries letters so everybody could read them. 

Hey mom and Fam! how has everyone been? I loved the package that you sent me! it was full of all my favorite goodies and had some tight slippers haha i miss carpet bc it doesn't exists here, but these slippers feel like im walking on pillows hah. my comp loved his shoes, in face hes writing you a thank you latter bc he knows some english but it might come out like jacks letters haha. Oh! thanks for all the letters. there was tons so i was happy! hah grants made me crack up bc it was way random, but i loved all of em. Dont worry about the camera and i want you to buy it with my own money bc its expensive. But dont worry that it didnt come with my package. But if you could for the next package just have my books, jump rope, and they camera. Thats really about all i need bc im getting fat hah and i don't have a camera to send you guys photos.  and the gangsters talk pure slang and i have to communicate with them too hahjk. Well the sad thing is that im leaving from this area that im only been in for 1 1/2 months. i don't know why but i guess its what the Lord wants. its difficult bc i like this area the most of all my areas. We had a baptism saturday and it was great. Our investigator is a kid of 20 years and he bore his testimony in a sacrament and told me that he wants to serve a mission and hes only been a member for 1 day. So im way happy about that.  His family will get baptised this month but they just needed a little more time. Im being sent to leon hah so that should be cool! i havent been there yet but im excited to see my area.  I just cant wait to visit all of these great people after the 2 years with all of you! 
Hah that's cool brandon rogers is going to be in the bishop rick.  I got along with him good. im excited for scott and the experiences that he will have.  Thanks again for everything and mom you can just send the package when jesse comes here again no worries.  Thanks again for everything!  love you mom and everyone! 
love elder bigelow
