Hello!

Michaela is visiting for quite a while this time. She's on online school, so she can stay longer. She's only just taller than Bekah....

Elder Redd, do you say his name like the color red, or is there a special way to say it...?

Last Monday, I walked up to the library, and the missionaries were there writing emails. I waved, and Alpin waved back.

The fireworks are very big (seriously huge), and very loud this year... It's a little hard to sleep.

On the third (Utah), Mom and I went Downtown to see MoTab, and Mom's buddies (talked about \/). Before we heard them, Dad, Sarah, Bekah, Mom and I went to Crown Burger for dinner. Sarah's still coughing a lot. After that, Dad stopped the car near the Blue Iguana place, by Capitol Theatre, and told us that FantasyCon was free (it wasn't [$20/person]), so Mom and I walked over to the building. We walked in through an open door.... and all that we did there was take pictures, and eat a small Dippin' Dots. It was near the end of the day, so all the guests were gone (Sylvester McCoy, several of the dwarves from the Hobbit, Sam and Pippin from the LotR, Mark Sheppard, John Rhys-Davies [from Indiana Jones], and many others I didn't know). There were a lot of elves, characters from LotR/Hobbit and Harry Potter, and some from Doctor Who. They had a guillotine and a pair of stocks too.... I saw a friend from school, Sharon. She was one of the staff, and she can get me tickets, and "rope me into being staff." (Which I want to do.) I also met two of her brothers. A boy from school, I never really learned his name, saw me, and I said hello. Mom took lots of pictures, I took as many as I could with my phone, and they're on Facebook. Mom and I rode FrontRunner home, it was my first time, and we went all the way up to the third level.

Yesterday (Saturday [Utah]), Robert, Ben, Bekah, Dad, and I went on two hikes, one at Snowbird, the other down/up the road. It was 78 degrees, or thereabouts. It was very hot for the second because first, it was lower in elevation, and second, there were very few trees... I still enjoyed them.

So you know how Mom missed her flight? Well the hotel shuttle driver who drove her to the hotel came to Utah (with his wife) on their way to Las Vegas. He and his wife aren't LDS, and Mom showed them around Downtown SLC and other places in Utah. I think it was on the 4th-5th... They also came around our house, and I was able to meet them.

That's it so far... Hopefully I'll remember to write you next week.
