Grayson and Mom on a Mission

MOMMMMM first of all ill tell you about the transfer. so i got word like 10 mnutes ago. My ZL just told me that PResident wants to talk with me tomorrow in sao paulo!!! holy moly i had a feeling this would happen. it happens with like 2 or 3 people every transfer in the mission. it can mean various various things. I could stay as DL but i think its more likely that i go to be a ZL or i stay in the office as a secretary. IM SO PUMPED MOMMA! im nervous out of my mind to talk with him tomorrow and my bus leaves at 7am from our church!!! so i guess you guys wont know until next week......i would be a little bummed if i stayed as DL after hearing this but we will see.  WE BAPTIZED MICHAEL THIS WEEK and also Rafael baptized Richardy. it was a sick sunday. i was soooo happy. and we almost baptized Rafaels brother but its all good. he will stay with Jairo and he should be baptized in this next transfer. I heard about parker being transferred that is awesome! and he will also be ZL! l...

Hello sweet boy! SO tell me about your week!  Were you able to have any more baptisms?  I'm sure there is a lot of pressure on your last week in an area.  And my next question is, what is the news about TRANSFERRSSSSS???  Where are you going?  Who is your comp?  Are you spending the day with all the people you love in Sorocaba?  I would think as ready as you are for a change, it will be so tough to leave them.  How are Rafael and Pamela and their family taking it?   Parker is getting transferred tomorrow.  Andrea sent me pictures of his new area and it is incredible beaches.  I think that would actually be hard for a missionary because you can't really enjoy it.  It just taunts you to look at it.  Plus it is about 100% humidity.  Parker had white mold growing on his suit in his closet.  LOL I'm excited that you'll be able to get your package.  Hopefully its there!!!  I'm sending another...

awh the harper video is cute! She is similar to Pamela's baby i feel like.  We did have a baptism this week! Carla was baptized! The daughter of Carlos. It was super. She actually became a lot happier than i thought, cause i know she was a little scared about it all. But it was pretty crazy we literally taught her almost everything on friday and then friday night the ward had a party and the zone leaders interviewed her and then saturday afternoon was the baptism. Its cool cause its another family united in the gospel. Neither Carla talks with her mom much which is the ex wife of Carlos so they are really all they have. So that is really cool that they have the gospel together now.  We almosttttt baptized Micheal this week. He is a crazy story that i will tell in my big email. But he was someone we were lightly planning on for next week if it was gonna happen at all. Cause we needed to teach him the Word of Wisdom and the Law of Chastity and we knew he had problems wit...

Hello love!  Happy Monday. xoxox   How was your week Elder G? I can't wait to hear about it.  Did you get some baptisms scheduled? Did the man's daughter come back in town? This week was a blur it went so fast.  I closed on the Schmidts house and then negotiated a contract on a new house I listed so It's been pretty crazy.  I feel so happy to have the work!  I'm really enjoying it.  The other client is Laurie and Kellie's nephew who lives in Anna.  I'm selling his house and then helping them buy a new house.  So we listed their house on Thursday and got a contract on Saturday.  So that house should close on 8/17 and then we close on their new house later the same day. The house I'm selling is super tiny so I won't make much on that one, but I'll make a good commission on the new one they are buying.  Now if I could only sell the flip house!!!! Ama, Brooke and I are busy planning a baby shower for Chelsey.  She ...

yo yo momma! Holy moly isaac was called as AP too!!! goodness i almost feel bad like i need to be doing better lol. but i know that callings arent important as long as im giving my all. I know i still have room to improve so i try to make little steps to being the missionary i wanna be every week. i would be totally fine passing my mission without being AP, but i would like to be a zone leader just to have the opportunity to lead lots of people. i think it would be cool. but lets see.  Thats awesome about seattle! seems like a pretty cool city! the space needle ive always wanted to do! glad you guys topped off your vacation well. any more while im gone or is our next vacation gonna be next summer with the BOIS? Thats crazy about the house that you guys were able to clean up that mess before leaving. Hope that you guys have a steady amount of showings this week. I think that this week everything will start to work out. Thats also awesome about the other listing. You have 3 l...

Hi Sweets!   AHHH! Finally a monday where I can be totally focused on talking with you!  I'm excited to just get to really hear how you've been and what you've been doing! I sent you lots of pics.  Abby and I had a fun day in Seattle last monday.  We went to the top of the space needle and then road a huge ferris wheel that is right on the water ... it feels like you are going to fall right in the ocean.  Its a very pretty city.  Reminds me a lot of San Francisco but greener.  Our flight didn't leave Seattle until midnight but we went back to the airport at 8:30 because it was so cold!  In july it was freezing at night and we weren't prepared for it.  But we had a great day. This week has just been readjustiing after vacation mode.  I have another listing that I'm getting ready that should go up for sale this weekend.  It's just a small house but I'm really grateful to be working.  i can't remember if I told yo...

Hi my amazing son! We are leaving beautiful McCall in the morning (Monday).  I should be available to talk to you when you write but I have a flight at 1:55 which is 4:55 your time.  Also the cell reception in the mountains isn't great while we are driving down to Boise. As long as you're on before that we will get to chat  a little.  But let Dad know when you are online today because he is looking forward to "chatting" with you. (He and Sam left early today - Sunday - because Sam had to work monday so Dad is now back home).  We had a great week.  Last Monday we were in SLC and had a fun couple of days there. We had an AWESOME dinner with Sam's mission president and his wife.  They are just amazing people and they love and admire Sam so much!  It was great to hear about how much of an impact Sam had on the mission.  I know it meant a lot to him to hear his President say those things.  I just walked away on cloud nine. I could not...

yo whaddup momma!! Thats sad about Grandpa Tom...do you really think he could pass away soon? or do you think its more of  a thing that he will just be limited for the rest of his life? hahahah omg thats sad what dad said about visiting his own parents lol. The pictures from that place look pretty and yours and dads shoes are rockin!! FLY MOMMA! Tell Dani I miss her and love her! Donut Falls is pretty cool and in a pretty place. I went when their was four feet of snow but it made for some cool pics. I think i posted one on my instagram my freshman year. Its a different style of waterfall than normal so thats cool. it was tough to find the actual waterfall when i went but with no snow i think it should be much easier and will have more people hiking to ask directions. Im excited to hear about dinner with sams mish pres! Ill tell president that you are gonna eat with my bros mish pres!  Ive been praying lots for the house and even fasted for it and a couple other things on s...

hello my gorgeous son! I'm writing you from Noelle's house:)  We made it to Utah after a nice weekend in denver.  Granpa Tom is not doing well.  He is having a really hard time getting around.  It's sad to see and I can tell that it is getting to him.  He got emotional a little bit while we were there.  I think it is also hard on Gayle because she is a real caretaker for him now.  She doesn't have as much freedom anymore.  We were there 2 1/2 days and to be honest it felt long!  LOL.  When we were on a flight leaving Denver Abby asked us what was our high and our low for the weekend.  Dad said his high was sleeping and his low was being awake.  HAHAHA  We had fun on Saturday when we went to Silver Plume and rode the old train that goes up the mountains.  It is off of highway 70 where we took our Colorado vacation.  So beautiful!  Then on Sunday we went to church with Tom and Gayle.  It was pretty go...
