Luis is getting baptized!  That is so awesome!  How did he tell you?  Why doesn't his son baptize him?  Tell me all about it.  

What is the last week of your mission look like?  Do you have interviews with President? Dinner? 

Ok.  So my letter today is a little early this week. I wanted to give you some time is to think about some answers to these questions.  I'd like to document some things about your mission.  Maybe next week I'll ask some others as well.  So here you go....

1. What miracles did you witness on your mission?

2. What did you learn from each of your companions?

3. Which investigator impacted you the most Why?

4. What was the hardest day of your mission?

5. If you could go back and have lunch with one person you met as a missionary, who would it be and why?

6. Can you pin point a particular moment that really changed your mission for the better?

Now here are a few other questions just for when you are home...

7. What foods and treats do you want to have when you get home?

8.  What dinners do you want when you get home?

I can’t help but thinking about you being home! I’m trying to help you stay focused in Brazil but today I’m failing miserably! Lol. 

Abby is now in Roseville visiting the Sewells. Dad was with grandpa Tom this weekend and didn’t get home until early this morning.  So I was home alone this weekend and got a lot done around the house. Trying to get your room organized😬. We also celebrated uncle Matt’s birthday at the Star. That’s a new area that I’m pretty sure you haven’t been to. It’s where the Dallas cowboy new practice facility is in Frisco and there are tons of restaurants there and live music on the weekends. It’s really fun! We will definitely go there the first week you’re home. 

I’m headed to Utah on Thursday to see Dani and be there for Spencer’s farewell which is this Sunday. Wow! Can’t believe it!! 

I love you more than you can imagine my sweet boy! I can’t wait to read your responses. Have an incredible week. Leave it all on the field 😘

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 ...
