haha i hoped you liked the video. did you send it to sam and abby and dad? i need to send it to sally cause i know shell like it haha. yeah that was on saturday and that was a good day cause i baptized carlos too!!! the music was coming from a car behind one of the fences he was bumping a ton of american music i loved it. do you think i should put that in my email to everyone? lol. its not a big deal to me haha but i know it says i wanna make love right now so idk if i should

still no mission debit card. it sucks, but ive had enough cash. i need to get reimbursements for a few things but i will when i get my card. hopefully this week or next. 

yeah most of the food here is pretty cheap. yeah taking my vitamins most days. 

we baptized carlos and we have a baptism set for rafaela next week! she is pregnant and her bf is a member lol. but i think she has a good desire. mostly its been referalls lately which has been nice but i know i have lots of tracting in my future haha. 

we will be at the mission office this wednesday or thursday so hopefully its there by then. if not ill talk to lima da silva about going next week. 

what?? that is awesome news about the house! i have been praying for you to have something like that. im glad it will be something that you like too. that is an awesome opportunity. hopefully you guys can make a good chunk of change. 

thank you for the talk mom. i know that everything i go through is for my experience and growth and i know that christ gives us trials for our good and to humble us. its still hard lots of times but im trying better to just choose happiness. im here! i cant change that at this point. it would be a waste of time to not be happy during this time. so ive been working on that this week and its gone better. 

i love you mom thanks for the bday message. how did all these people know about my bday?? did you post on facebook or something?

I will go to Jardim Simos and be with an elder I dont know. I will be the senior companion which is really cool. Hes a brazilian, just finished his traning, and has about only 3 months on the mission. Im so glad and relieved. i was just ready to leave aguiar. he is just a difficult person sometimes.  love you mom.  yeah that sounds really difficult and probably something that would be really hard to do at the mission office haha. ok thank you for looking it up.  I love you so freaking much mom! You are my hero! Sorry that it has to be all annoying like this. I will defini...

Good morning my sweet boy! How was your week? I’m hoping there were some baptisms and the people followed through on their commitments:) Did you love conference? One of my favorite things about it was how I knew we were sitting there doing the exact same thing at the same time! That was comforting to me. I absolutely loved it! If you didn’t get a chance to watch the women’s broadcast you should try. I will send you an Ensign conference edition when it gets here so you can read all the talks again and study them.

Excited for you to meet your new little cousin when you return. Sounds like you are doing really well! I know you’ve had minor struggles and home sickness along the way, but it’s good to see you pumped and positive. Sounds like you’re doing a great job!     Hey listen, I know everyone has chimed in on the girl situation and you’re probably tired of talking about it at this point, but I wanted to try to talk to you about it as well because I’ve had the unwelcome pleasure of going through 3 life changing heart breaks that I never thought I’d recover from so I can speak to you from experience and hopefully put some perspective on things.     I had been with Alicia for 5 years, we were in love but it was more than that. It was how the family loved her, how much I loved her family and ...
