I spy....Jake!




Hi!
Sara might  work at Kaiser! that would be so awesome if she got the job!
As for the trip to Sao Paulo, just need to get a hotel there and the rest Elder Pajaro and his dad will help us. He said that he will take us around the entire weekend in his car.
haha you helped Cain Velasquez enroll his kid into school! that is hilarious!
My new area is great, and my comp. The house... is terrible, we will clean tomorrow because we didn't have time today. Elder Bednar came to speak with us, so we lost a large part of the p-day, but so worth it! 
Our first Sunday here was a stake conference with the presiding bishop of the church. It was pretty exciting.
The others in our house are fine. We are trying to help them get out and work a little bit more.
Glad that baby Jake is good, can't believe that he is 2!
Something awesome about our new area is that we have the beach! the bishop lives on the street of the beach. Open his front door and it's just beach.
I sent a letter to Otav. I was really happy to see that he wrote me.
It wasn't that hard to say goodbye to president. The hard part is feeling empty after leaving. This week was weird, I felt like I had restarted the mission. It is SO much better though, and I am way happier.
So a story about someone we are teaching. When he was 1 year old, he fell two stories and hit his head. He went into a coma for 6 months and they did surgery on him. Not sure how he lived, but miraculously he is living a normal life, just with a head a little bit dis-formed. He is awesome though, he should be baptized on February 2nd. He thinks that he wont be ready, but we are trying to help him as much as we can.
Elder Bednar came too. It was better than Elder Holland, because we were able to ask any question that we wanted to. I didn't ask anything, but it was good to hear what everyone else asked and the answers. I have never felt so good in my life.
funny miracle.... we were finishing on Friday about 8:30, and we were about to eat something when a member saw us and screamed to us. We went over there and he told us to sit down and he would order a burger for us. It was so good, because it wasn't the best day that we have ever had, but what happened really helped us. 
Anyway, I am happy that I actually have some stories for you guys now. It is going really well here, and every time we teach we feel more certainty about Christ and about families. The two main things that we teach about.
Hope everything is going well with you guys, 
LOVE ELDER JAKE LANGLOIS
