Hola familia! how is everybody doing. Well loved hearing from you and well of course conference was great here in the MTC. It was really cool to be able to be here for that and watch it all together and be here in this great place for that. I think on of the coolest thing was when the prophet walked into the conference center and everybody stood up there the whole MTC would go silent and stand up also and as we did this I could really feel the power of the prophet. It was awesome and I am going to have to say that saturday was probably my favorite sessions, and I just like you mom and dad loved Elder Hollands talk the most it really helped me a lot and helped me focus on what is importannt Elder Holland and all the apostle are so powerful. Also I loved Elder Bednars talk in priesthood session, it reallty helped me realize how important the priesthood really is. it was definately different being at priesthood without you dad and all my brothers I definately thought of you it is crazy how time is going by it really feels like just yesterday that we were in our stake center watching priesthood and thinking that I will be on my mission next conference.. and here I am.:) Conference definately brought me closer to you guys especially everytime they talked about missionaries because I knew that you would be thinking of me and also when the missionary choir sang. no I did not sing but it is all good because I had a great expereince back staying at the MTC. But I am glad you loved the choir, they were so good! you probably saw my companion and all the hermanas in our disctrict they were on the tv a lot it was cool sittin back and watching it at the MTC and seeing all the people I know on the screen haha it was fun. Oh ya and I guess you saw David Archuletta on the screen.. haha how could you miss him when it zoomed in on him. I thought theey were trying to keep it quiet that he was here haha but after that I dont think it is very secret. But ya he is here, he just got here last week and it has been really funny listening to all the rumors around the MTC Ever since I got here there has been rumors that he was already there or he wasnt going to the MTC or that he was coming but none of us knew and then this last wednesday there were more rumors so I didnt know what to think but there were more than usual. But we kept an eye out for him and then we saw him and now I see him all the time. It is kinda funny and really interesting seeing him here haha he is a lot smaller than thought like a lot smaller and it is just funny watching him but ya i see him all the time in the cafeteria because he has the same meal time as us...It is fun i really hope that he sings at a fireside because that would be awe so this sunday is Easter sunday and fast sunday and the MTC is having a big sacrament meeting. LIke the whole MTC and they have asked us to help with the sacrament so that is going to be awesome the coolest part about it is they told us that there is going to be 3 GENERAL AUTHORITIES and that we will definately recognize who they are so ya I am pretty excited especaily because we might get the chance to shake their hands and for sure we have reserved seats on the front row because we are helping it will be pretty sweet. O also to answer you question mom yes could you send me that old shuffle no need to get a new one but if possible could you load the music on it at home before you send it I will write in a letter more instruction but that would be awesome if you could maybe do that. Also maybe some more Tshirts like my band of brothers and some lacrosse sweats would be nice whatever ones but ya just as soon as you can for the clothes and all.so ya there is a lot more stuff I would love to write you about but I am out of time agian but I really am going to go and write a letter to you all with more because ya I have not been very good at that. Sorry. But i love you all so much! the church is true and President Monson is really our prophet now it was cool how I dont remember who said it but when they talked about how the prophet receives revelation that I thought that was so cool especially as they talked directly from the savior. Here at the MTC you realize the reality of the gospel and not just some religion it is so true! LOVE YOU ~ Elder Boyer
