Hi Elder G! You had a great week!  I loved seeing the pictures from Cristiano and Paula's baptism.  Did you have a wedding celebration too?  Tell me about it all.

We had a good week.  i'll send some pictures from Chelseys 30th birthday.  That is why we dressed up in 80's stuff because she was born in 1989.  lol  I had already graduated from college.  So crazy!

The best part of the week is that we closed on the investment house!  I'm not sure I ever knew it would happen... but it did! It is such a weight off of my shoulders and I'm really grateful!  

So we bought tickets to Miami.  Sam and Abby invited Dad and I to come with.  I hope you're okay with that.  Everyone is still going to pay their own way because we are saving up for thailand.  Is that ok with you?  We got tickets leaving tuesday morning 8/20 an return saturday morning 8/24.  We were thinlng since we arrive so early Tuesday morning, we would just drive down to Key West straight from the airport and spend the day and one night there.  Then we can spend wednesday there too and drive back wednesday evening.  Then we would have Thursday and Friday in Miami.  Here is where I need your opinion.  We will be in a hotel in miami for 3 nights.  The ones on the beach are more expensive and smaller.  The one that has 2 queen beds plus a pull out couch and free made to order breakfast every morning is a 5 minute drive to the beach (it's actually in Miami... Miami Beach is where the other hotel is)  My thought is we would have more room to be comfortable and it has a nicer pool too.  But I get why staying right on the beach is fun too.  What do you think?

We have some things to talk about so I won't be long on here.  Just call me after you write.

I love you my son!  I'm so proud of your hard work this week and to see it pay off in a beautiful baptism of two of God's children.  Awesome!!!

Happy happy 6 months Elder G!!!  That is so exciting!  Are you going to burn a tie today?  Isn't that the tradition?? That feels pretty amazing to have 25% done.  How are you doing my love?  Are you feeling strength and comfort?  I pray for it everyday for you.  You are constantly on our minds and hearts and in our prayers.  We talk about you many times every day.  You are such an important part of our family and I miss you soooo very much.   I know you've had some very rough weeks but I pray that you are feeling stronger.  I read something this week that made me think of you.  D&C 101:36 says that "in this life your joy is not full, but in me your joy is full."  Sometimes in life we just won't feel happy.  If we are expecting to be happy 100% all of the time, we will be 100% disappointed.  Because this life is a probationary state, we will have struggles, trials and hardships.  But I love t...

Yo yo momma, so transfers will be next week. SO in my email next week i will let you guys know. I really think that ill stay here. This area definitely has its problems but i also love it here and i really wanna stay here one more transfer. Plus it will be great to settle in with Alessandra and Lucianno after their baptism as members of the church. So btw...our prayers were answered!!! We went there on Monday night and I was sweating the whole time thinking about what i would say to firm them up for baptism. I started to talk a little bit about marriage and how it was preparing them for baptism and she literally cuts me off out of nowhere and asks "So what time will the baptism be on Saturday?" I felt the spirit soooo strongly and felt like it was an answer to my prayers and it was the Lord saying "dont worry i got this one". since then they are gotten super firm. They talk about raising a family in this church, temple marriage, and even serving a couples mission!!!...

Hey buddy!    I’m glad I finally get a chance to sit down and write. Baby stuff has taken over my life but we are very excited to have Harper with us in the next few weeks. 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 ...
