     Ken and I went ski-dooing with some of his friends in the Community Pasture on New Year's Day.  It was awesome!  I had to share a little bit of that with Carson and this was his reply...

Oh my Oh my Oh my Mom is am SOOOOOOO JEALOUS do you think there is snow here ha ha ha... These funny people here don't really know what snow is. They always say oh ya we know, But me im like NOPE no you don't not. But oh well sounds like  big party has been just going this whole week. wow as for us not much has been going down. On Tuesday we went to the Race track and took some pictures pretty powerful total thought we where going to get chased out of there but all was fine.

Wed New years just kindly chilled and went to the mall for some food and KFC oh oh oh my goodness so nice actually eating a really chicken

and we stayed up till twelve and went to the top of the flat and watched the fire works from very very far. But it was still cool. (My comp just about kicked my teeth in because i got up and screamed 2015 THIS YEAR I M GOING HOME!!) HE still has another year to go so he was not to impressed with that.

Thrus- not to much

Frid- same as every day

Sat- we partied with some people and had some good lessons.

Sun. We fasted and had ward council and all of that lots of fun

Today Email go home and eat food and download scriptures for the next week.

Ya its been a good one Love you lots

And hope you have a happy new year.

Hi Carson,

Now I'm really mad we didn't get any pictures for you to send so they could see real snow!  Sorry.  I will try to get some soon.

So you really did go to the race track?  Is that in your area?  Hope you didn't get into trouble for that.  Are you going to send us the pictures so we can see them?  Or do we have to wait 8 more months?  

Love that you got some KFC.  Are you sure it was real chicken?  You never know!  But that sounds exciting!

Sounds like a great time on New Years.  At least you made it up that late.  

What does that mean you have to download scriptures for the next week?  Why do you have to do that?

Any suggestions for Dad and his "Adversity" talk?

Ya the race track is like a 45 min walk and is just right close to our flat ya i sent them to dad But you know it is better to keep everything as a surprise haha

Just means to read scriptures in preparation for the coming week. um not really i can think of but What doesn't kill us makes us stronger. So adversity must always be present there is opposition in all things. So through adversity u can become stronger. yup thats all i got for now off the top of my head

Sounds great.  What about pictures?  I can't wait to see what it looks like over there.  Did you get the picture I sent of your sisters in their Christmas pyjamas? 

So dad is awake and we're just getting ready to start the day with scriptures.  It's the girls first day back to school after Christmas break.  They're not moving too fast just now!

Ya i saw that one it was kindly small but yo yo yo those funny sisters of mine are no longer babies.

HAHAH POWERFUL

How much longer do you have to use the internet?  How much does it cost you?  Have you got letters written to everybody else already?

Not to much kindly expessive and i need to print pic for someone. ya i m just about finished

Well, if you ever want to send us some pictures, that would be fun!  We're just in the middle of scriptures...Mormon Chapter 8.  If you can think of any story for dad...like someone who was faced with adversity or trials and then remained faithful and was blessed...that might help me...um I mean Him...with writing this talk.  :)  Thanks!

ok poa thanks you mom love you lots

Here's his letter to Ken...

Hey mzee.

Ya a house full of girls does sound like a whole lot of fun. and i just remembered did you bring mom with you snowmobiling for the last time when you and i went snowmobiling instead of Ice Fishing. She wasn't to happy that day was she.

But ya this area is really nice and on tuesday we went to the race track and very casually we walked around they were setting up for the new year party. and we got a few contacts and ya it was really nice. But it isn't anything big they only have two races a month and mostly on Sunday, The next race was actually on Jan 4 Is was going to see what President Hicken would say if i asked. But i doubt that he would let us go to the den of iniquity but still it was funny. Actually it is about a 7 min. Drive from our flatt it was pretty cool. Ya then didn't tell us why they white washed it but my comp was going home and my new comp companion was going home to so they must of just stuck us together.

Ya this area is really nice i m really liken it here Working hard and striving to do my best, After that not tooo much is happening. Miss you guys alot and hope you have a happy new year, Love you lots

Carson

     Here are some pictures of the Ngong racetrack I found on the internet.  (Someone needs to tell them the horses are running in the wrong direction!)
