Dear Mom,
   I can't believe its been a week since you dropped me off. Everything here is going well for me! We are packing right now to move into another building because this one we are living in is getting fixed because its to old. Today we get a whole bunco of missionaries. I guess we are not the new ones anymore. We are one of the old one. That is really cool you saw Vanessa and Shannon. I really like Vanessa, she is such a good friend. Hey, can you send me some pictures of the new bathroom when you send pictures of Karlee's wedding pictures!! Well, I sure do miss you and the family! I love you so much.
Love your son, Elder Jared Reed!

Hey mom,  It's been crazy that I've been in here for two and a half weeks! I leave for Oregon wednesday morning. I am so scared to fly. There are 7 elders that are coming with me to Oregon and there are two sisters!  Tell grandma I am sorry about her knee and I am surprises she is walking so soon. haha, What the, tell Karlee she is going to get it when I get back from my misson for using my bed and quilt. haha, That is cool that she used Stetson. I hope he is doing okay. Dad told me he went to the rocken r and say a bunch of bees died on the ground. haha that is so funny. I took some pictures of the mountains with snow. I hope they turn out okay. Thats really cool Dj is asking people to get baptized. haha I hope she is doing okay. Have you heard from Katelyn at all of no? How did your car drive home? I hope that car can last a long time. How is dad's trans. doing in his truck? Well, I meet a lot of friends here. So I hope you are doing good. I also hope you got my letters. Well, I will call you when I am at the airport.  I am leaving here at 8 and our flight leaves at 11. So I will be calling around there. Did that guy come look at my truck or no? Well, I love you so much. I got to get off now. I love you and tell the family I love them also. Have a good rest of the week.    Hey Dad, Thats pretty cool that coach Beall drove by the mtc to see if they cound see me. Ha, I was probably in class. Yea, I took some picture of the snow on the mountain. The day before it snowed and rained. I prayed for it to snow and rain. i thought it was pretty funny. Well, that is really cool that you are getting blessed with a lot  of work. How long will it take you to make all that railing? Hey did that one guy come look at my truck? or no? So I am leaving to oregon next wednesday. I am really scared to fly on that plane. It is amazing how much my testimony has grown over the short time I have been here!!! I am not getting along with my companion, I almost punched him in his face. Everytime I try to talk he cuts in so I can't talk to the investigators. But other than that I like the mtc. Did you get my letters i sent to you? I sent like three of them and I sent one to Dj but I sent it to are house because I don't know her address. Ya, I have been written Briley. Ha, she is pretty funny. Tell Karlee to write me on this email or to write me on paper. Hey, I need my bike sent to the mission. They said I will need it when I get there. Well, I have to get of here in a bit. Love you so much. Oh and I used your faith story so many times!!! love u all, Elder Reed
