Two Letters and a Pack of Stickers

23 July
Hey sweetie,
Those pictures today were so cute! It made my day! It also made me happy to hear you say you were at peace with whatever happens. And I'm so glad your surgery went well. I was really worried about you. I thought about something today that might help our situation. I don't think the people here would really care if I "missed" the plane by OCS at Ft. Benning might. Maybe you could call someone there and see what they have to say. If they don't care I don't think it would be a big deal if I just came back through security at the airport and ride with you. It's just an idea. If it works GREAT if not we will enjoy every second we have together. The problem is I have no idea who you should call other than the Ft, Benning OCS people. (This won't work, when I called they said he would be considered AWOL if he just gets in the car with me. NOT good).
Today was a pretty fun day. We had repelling off the warrior tower and we also had our phasing ceremony from white to blue phase. Nothing really changes that much except more out of us now. Just a little more rope with which to hang ourselves. The heat here has been crazy! Sometimes it's too hot for us to even train. It makes me mad sometimes because I want to be training. I hope these last 3 weeks go by quickly because I can hardly wait to see you. I hope you have something planned because I have no idea what we can do on base, and I don't really care as long as I have you two!
24 July
Happy Pioneer Day! We haven't ever been in Utah for it but I hope you are having a good time. I love hearing how well your training is going. I'm proud of you for doing hard things because you know they are good for you. I'm so glad you aren't lazy! I wish I could be there to hear Brooklyn talk. I can't wait to hear that sweet little voice! I just hope she remembers me and will let me hold her. I know you will let me hold you, at least you better! Have you talked with my mom or dad? I haven't heard about either of them except for Grandma's email. I would love to know if everything is ok and how Jacob is doing. I also got an email from Will but I can't really write him back so if you could tell him thanks for me, I would appreciate it. How are April and all your friends doing? Just dreading the start of school? (Yes.) I was wondering the other day if we were going on a vacation this year? As far as some type of vacation I think that is a must. Even if it is just a short trip I think it would be great. I know this letter is kind of all over the place but that's kind of how I feel right now. Coming to church and having a little stress free time to think about you and Brooklyn always brings my emotions to the surface. It's a good thing though because it helps me focus and I always feel rejuvenated after church and yes I am writing this during Sacrament meeting. Go ahead and complain. I dare you! I'm actually going to pay attention now and try to set a good example for these guys. I'll finish this tonight and send it in the morning.
I'm so glad I got to talk to you! I love you so much! Don't stress about the long pass thing too much. I really want to get it and spend time with you I just don't want to go to jail because of it. :) I feel at peace with whatever has to happen. I just keep praying we get the extra time. It made my week to tell you I love you and to hear Brooklyn's sweet little voice. Thank you so much for being so strong and supportive. I couldn't live without you. I love you so much and can't wait till the 17th. Until then be careful and stay strong. I love you!
Love,
your sexy lover (hahahaha. He will probably be mad I didn't edit that)

Hey baby,
I just got a couple of pictures of you. You look great babe. And I'm so proud of you for sticking with it even though it has been hard. And Brooklyn looks as cute as ever. Thanks for keeping me updated on how Jacob is doing. I haven't really heard anything since I left. As far as some of your questions, people can be baptized while they are here. As a matter of fact there was a female baptized a few weeks ago. I hurt my ankle again today except it was the right one this time so it's a little worse than normal. I'm a little worried because we have a PT test this Saturday. I hope it feels better by then. We are also having a blood drive on Saturday, and as much as I hate needles I'm going to do it because this blood goes to soldiers only. I figure if I can help out a little I will. I can't wait to go swimming with Brooklyn when I get home. By the way did you use the army insurance at all? Oh, by the way the drill sergeant made fun of the face you made in one of the pictures you sent. He called it a pouty face. Things here with the guys have been going pretty well the last couple of days. There are still a couple of idiots that will never catch on, but for the most part things have been going well. Tomorrow we have early morning PT and then we go to the range again. It would normally be fun but it's supposed to be 105 or hotter. I'm so tired of this humidity and heat! I need to get to bed babe. I love you so much you can't even imagine. I'm counting down the days till I get to see you! Hugs and kisses!
Love you!

The third letter was just full of his address stickers. I guess that's a hint?!?! I already write him EVERY DAY!!!
