Dear Family,

Ok this week was awesome.  We did a contacting activity and contacted like 15 people in my area.  That was every companionship.  We had three in my area so it was great.  We talked to my investigator Enrique, and he is still super animated  to go and learn about God and the church.  

 I found out that they are filming the new James Bond movie in my mission! Talk about awesome.   Today i found out that Jenifer Lopez was in a mall in my mission.  Also fun stuff happening here right now.  On the other hand you have 5 fingers.  Then we are eating lunch and we had an earthquake but it was so small that we almost didn’t notice it.  Any way its raining and cold at nights here right now, but  we are burning up with heat during the day. All part of the season changes I guess.   i just love my misision.    I   dont know what more to say.  I’m so happy and so ready to keep going.  

 Love you all

Hello Family,

Well,  this week was ok i guess.  It’s been freezing down here at nights and the rain doesn’t help but don’t you worry mom, cause im from Utah and can handle a bit of cold.  The funny one is my comp who gets ready to leave with his sweatshirt long sleeve shirt heavy duty pants 3 socks and his snow boots to leave into what i call a maybe 60 to 70 degree weather.  The works been kinda slow here.  We cant contact `passed 6 cause everyone is in doors and they don’t want to answer the door for fear of being robbed.  And during the day the rest, just people working so they dont have time.  But thats ok!  one of these days itll pick up here.  so are land lord came and checked out our house and called it a dump so now i have two guys working on my house remodeling it. it’s been kinda cool.  The problem is we have house checks this week so i dont know if my pres will be to happy with us living in a construction zone,  but I guess he knows about it so….  any way that’s what’s going on down here in Mexico best of wishes to all….

Whats up, how ya doing.

So this week was awesome. We got to visit with people, we got to teach and find new people to teach, and in the end it was just a fun week.  This week i went on divisions with Elder Taylor who was my district leader in the MTC.  It was super fun.  Then the next day my comp comes home from the divisions sick, but like the cool Elder he is we still went to work. (He blames me for him being sick cause i didn’t cook his eggs with salt.  Do we do that or am i just out of the loop? but he was just joking) Any way then on Saturday we did service Project for a nice old member of the Ward and repainted his entire house, installed new Windows and fixed his wáter tank (for those of you back home they have these big huge tanks down here for there wáter)  but luckily we had like 15 other members from the ward helping us.  And today i went to the black market down here and bought me. a speaker, a Green laser, an old time stop watch you know the one that you click and it flips open.  a regular watch,  three Mexican tie pins, and a 34 gig usb all for dirt cheap and they all work.  Go TEPITO!

So think that’s  all,  lots of love

Hello Everyone,

So this week was awesome, I found out that 4 of the 6 elders in my MTC  district are in my zone right now and I saw them at our dodge socks (we used socks in place of balls) zone activity.  It was nice to talk to them and see how much we have all grown.   One of them is having a rough time with his comp but he is in my district so I’ll be able to see him a lot and talk to him and help him, i hope.  Any way this week we did divisions and that was fun like always. Helping guys get to were they are suppose to be,  then we set two dates for baptism.  One to Diana and one to Enrique.  Both really good.  .   its super-hot down here (ok not as hot as it gets up there but hotter than it normally is down here)  i just love my comp he is so awesome.  lastly i went to sams club today and we bought 1357 pesos worth of food for the month.  it was scary to see the price,  but for a month worth of food for the both of us it was actually a great buy. Um don’t know what more to say

Love you all
