11/14/11

Hello! this week was fantastic! but my companion had what I had except he had to go to the hospital so it was way worse than me.  I will talk more about it later.
To be honest we dont really have that many people to teach right now because we have been sick the past to weeks, mostly my companion so we haven't found many new investigators BUT we are still baptizing. Go figure haha. Right now we have a young man that is afraid to pray because of the things he has done in his past... but he wants to serve a mission but we are working with him and we have a wedding planned and two baptisms after:) they know the church is true and are ready to be baptised but need to be married first because of the law of chastity. They are awesome! I sent more pictures today by the way.
My journal isn't the best. My emails are better but I will continue to try and improve that.
I told dad about bring sick and not you because I knew you would just worry and I know you already are worrying enough. They have everything here though. A huge hospital and all the medicines so i will be fine even when I get sick. Don't worry. Everything is fine now.
Sounds like Natalie's soccer game was fun!
I can't believe Thomas finally got a stick from Marleau! That is the coolest thing ever for him! he has talked to him enough that he knows Thomas now haha. and no I am not worrying about my hair here. Only cut it really short. It doesn't matter. Hope you have a fun thanksgiving. This holiday doesnt exist here so christmas is already here. There are christmas trees and a few lights haha. I have a feeling that this will be a depressing christmas hahahahah. Make sure steve and thomas play together. If not I will be sad.
Alrighty, this week was great.  We went to a tucanos that is here! its called a churrasco or bbq. It was amazing!!!! and also there is a costco of brazil right next to the churrasco haha so we did a lot of things that made me think of home today! it was great! They have those hershey cookies and cream bars here and they have frosted flakes, sucrilhos:) also that thing on the plate in my photos is a grilled pineapple with cinamon sugar to make you jealous:)
We had divisions last week with me who has 4 months on the mission and elder Ramos who has 3 haha. It was awesome and we will have a baptism because of it! we are doing it again this week too. Remember that lady who thought that adam and eve smoked weed? she has a frog the size of my head... we think she is a witch! We also had a baptism this week of a boy named Lucas. He will be a missionary for sure! he is awesome, a little timid, but will do big things!
Thank you to all who have written to me.  I am sorry if I can't write back often but I will try.  Hopefully you will read these emails to keep updated on what I am doing.  I want another letter from Taylor and Thomas haha. This was my week. Tt was really good and this week will be full of work! love you all!!!
