Jacob with the mission president and his wife.

Jacob with the other new missionaries that arrived in Arizona the same day as him.

It has been hot, but not too hot.  In the 90s mostly, but it really feels cool because it's dry heat.  Yes, I still have meals every day, it's great!  I am getting to know the members, slowly...It's a big change.  

I look forward to letters, packages, and emails from everyone!!!!  Also, tell Callis that he's adorable and that he'll be six when I get home, regardless  of what he thinks.  (Cal keeps telling everyone that Jacob is coming home when he is 5!)
