Finally his first P-day, and first letters home!

Its great! Its finally p day. Um it’s great to hear from home. I got all your letters and I’ll try to send some later today. My flight was perfect as could be. The 20 minute flight from flag was awesome. I just stared out the window the whole time. When I got there I followed your directions and come to find out there was two doors, one north and one south. I didn’t know which one to use so I went out north and to my dismay no green cars, I walked out the south and I looked for about 30 seconds and Kristy pulled up in her car. I saw Elder Mclaws at the airport. It hit his dad pretty hard. I ate some pizza and flew on from phoenix to Georgia. I was stuck by a pretty big boy but I lived. I even talked to a guy who was lds and worked in aftermarket car parts. When I got to Georgia I got off the plane and was using a TV to see where I needed to go and a sister missionary named Sister Camacho asked me if I was going home or going out and was talking really fast. I told her where and what flight and she said me too and so in almost shock I just followed her and a long walk and a tram ride later I was where I needed to be and I know without a doubt it wasn’t coincidence at all and the Lord was looking out for me. Um I’m running shorter on time like I said I’ll try and write but I’m so busy I’ve barely have time to read even the little notes. The teachers are great and my district makes fun of me because I’ve gotten 4 letters since I’ve got here. 1 from tonnie, 2 from you, and 1 from missionties. My district is great. Elder Mclaws is in the same room as me. My companhiero is Elder Passey. He’s from s.c. and Mclaws companheiro is Elder Mackay pronounced Macky. I love the letters, we are having a great time. I love my district and my roommates. We have fun but never too much. Its great today we got to go to the Sao Paulo temple. It was neat seeing me and my companheiros in the eternity mirror. Well I’ll try to write love you

Tyson also sent a couple of other little emails after this first one. Some of it is repitition, but we just think that you can feel his excitement in his words, and we want you all to enjoy that as well...

Tyson also sent one picture to us. What do you think it was? His companion? The Temple? The MTC? Nope, not our Tyson.... He was so impressed with the burned car, that was what he sent home to us. So I put it in here in his honor.... Crazy Kid!
 
I can just hear Tyson saying.... I bet I could fix that thing up...
