Mother!

Things are going good. So we have a p day today you know, and we just had one on wednesday. But it literally feels like a whole week had passed by haha. Nothing too exciting has happened this past week. It was short, We had like 5 non members come to church on Sunday! It was awesome!! Oh ya, so i had to give a talk yesterday in sacrement meeting. It was my first time actually giving a talk. I have talked in sacrement meeting like 3 times but never supposed to have given a talk. So they wanted us to talk for ten min each. And i was thinking okay i can do that, i did like 20 at my farewell. So i was supposed to talk about prayer and things like that. So i get up there and im talking and do my thing. Then E olivares goes and he does his thing, and he comes down and i ask him "Hey how long did i talk"? And he was like about 4 min!!! HA and i was like WHAT!? To me it felt like i was up there forever talking haha. I guess talking in Spanish is a little different. So next time i talk i will have to make sure i just talk forever even if i repeat myself a lot.


Well it rained quite a bit this past week. it was nice and it made tracting nice too. It rained like 4 days and had cloud coverage. Its the most rain we have had since i have been here. Cuz usually the rain sprinkles for like 5 min and then the clouds disappear haha. But this weekend was nice. I'm trying to think of some funny stories that happened this past week, but i cant remember anything. Man one thing that has happened since i have been on my mission, i have lost my memory. I cant remember doing things or i remember things that i thought was with E Castillo but it was really with E Olivares. haha. Its bad!


JAKE is going to BOLIVIA!? That is SO tight!! Tell him Congrats and I'm super proud of him!! Man that is super super exciting!! We will be able to speak spanish to each other when we get back haha :) Man that time is gonna fly and he is gonna be leaving before he knows it. Tell him that, Cuz i had to wait three months and those three months FLEW!! But its awesome, he is gonna love it. Tell him to write me or something, cuz i dont think i have his address. So just give him my mission address cuz i would love to write him. And Nathan turned in his papers too? What the heck that is so weird haha. Everyone is getting old, and yet I I I Dont even feel old. Sometimes it hits me that I'm really a missionary. I dont feel 19, idk its a weird feeling. And Ray too? Wow that sounds crazy!! I need to write him, i havent written him since i was in the MTC. But I'm glad he is doing good too. he is coming up on his year mark soon, Man thats so crazy to think how fast time flies, at least it feels that way for me.

So just curious, I dont know if you want to try and preserve my bass or not, but if you want you can put those damp its in it to try and help that if you want. And maybe play it a little bit? haha. Cuz when I come back, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna wanna keep playing it. It was weird for some reason right before my mission i really got into orchestral music again and all that stuff. So maybe its supposed to happen like that. Idk But as of right now when i come back i wanna go into some orchestra whether it be MCC or not, i dont care.

Things for me are going good. Its crazy this transfer has flown by. We only have 2 weeks left in the transfer. It flew by. Time is starting to fly by, It's insane. Were working hard to try to baptize and get people to church. Other then that were doing great. I'm loving in out here In alamosa. You guys are lucky you get to go see John and them. That sounds like a blast. You can pretty much do whatever you want now huh? haha. That sounds like a blast!!

Well i love you mom and Dad. i hope you have a great week!!

Love,
