October 11, 2011



Some guy painted this in 3 minutes with his fingers!

His favorite juice!

This is what they use to clean their water

Mini Cake

He LOVES these cookies!
Umm . . . not a mother's favorite picture!

Well I don’t really know what to say this week...we had 1 person or investigator who came to sacrament meeting.  3 lessons with a member present and 3 other lessons..5 baptismal invitations and they all accepted the date for the 29 of October but since none of them came to church yesterday we are back to zero with a baptismal date.  Also there were 25 people at church.

Every day we have plans for every hour of the day and it’s so hottttt, you have no clue how hot it is.  Plus its way humid so that makes it worse.  I think that I had the worst day of my life this last week, we had so many good plans and back up plans and every single appointment fell....plus this day was like 105 plus humidity and the sun just kills you.  The elders a long time ago could wear sombreros but not anymore cuz someone had to ruin it!!!   But you know that pic I sent home with the really old guy who is going bald? He is a champ, and like the only one who seems to care about us in this area, well he and the Delgado family. I just let it all out on him about all the stuff that goes on in the ward and stuff.  I was so sad when he didn’t show up for general conference; he said he didn’t come because he is ticked at all the leaders in the district.  Nobody does their callings.  Man American missionaries have it so easy.  But he made me feel a ton better that day.  Then later that night the zone leaders called me to see how the day was and I told them how hard it is.  They said they have been talking to president about this area and how they have no clue how I’m still just moving along.  Its only my 3rd change and I have to deal with an area as dead as this.  But we have interviews tomorrow with him.  He sent me an email this week that said we will have a good talk and stuff, and that its always darkest right before dawn.  I didn’t understand that at first but I do now.

Sounds like all the games are going good, Grants tooted his own horn about having 120 yards a game and that sounds like dad in his hay day being Mr. Touchdown!!!!

I tried to look at Spencer’s videos but the computers don’t have some type of video player and it won’t let me download the video player to watch the videos.  Put them on an SD card and send them to me, and then i can show people down here too, and put some videos of my most ballin matches too!!!

I did get a heap of mail today, 2 dear elders from Richard, one from Saige, and one from Elder Moore, also a ton of pics from the Walkers and letters from the girls.

Mom I love you

Instead of a "copy & paste" letter from Elder Salinas today, I'll just let you know that in his letter he mentioned that he loved conference, he expressed his concern for his little sister, and mentioned that they are really struggling to find people to teach.  Please keep him in your prayers.
