Week # 15 Birthday Week.......

We didn't get any pictures but we did get to email him this week here are some of our Questions to him:
We asked if he had any new Baptisms?

                                                 We got one baptism because the mom and sister said they weren't ready yet but we did get the one named Felipe the youngest son.  

Did you Feel the Earthquake?

The earthquake?? I have yet to feel anything or hear anything about any earthquake? The weather still wet but it helps with the sweat so I don't mind to much anymore. I got sick of carrying my camera to take pictures of me walking in the rain so I don't have much this week for pictures but things are great!
 I thought there might have been something the other night but i didn't really think much of it.

Did you get the other 2 family members baptized?

No we decided to move it so we could do the whole family together the following week. I don't mind because we are going to do all 4 of a family the same day! :)

Any others lined up & hows the spanish, also how is his training coming?

Yes we have a bunch lined up for the weekend of the 2/3 of November, and my Spanish is coming along more and more everyday. I will finish my training 2 weeks early. I will be finished this next Monday and I will know if I am staying, training, or leaving by this time next Monday.

Asked how he felt about leaving his first area:

I don't want to leave. I love it here!!! I don't think I can say goodbye to some of the members that are here. I love it here!!!! but if that is what the lord wants I will do it with a smile.

I really want to stay. I honestly would love to stay my whole mission here!


Then his response to Jordan's letter, I thought it was cute:

Hey Sister! don't worry about the email last week :) conference here was different but not too much!! it is still crazy rain and the weather here is super bipolar! I have some great plans for my birthday which include sleeping in till 6:30 and the exercising for 30 minutes, after I will study for 4 hours and then have some rice and beans (the special just for me) and then I will work and sweat until people think I went swimming in my clothes. Finally I will make my way home by 9:30 and probably eat a little bit of a different meal called beans and rice (please don't confuse the lunch with dinner because the order of food is distinctly different) and finally scribble down some plans for the next day. following that I will baby crawl my way to my bed and fall asleep praying. (that happened 3 times last week ;) and then I will climb the mountain to sleep in the top bunk of my bed and I will celebrate the day with a good snore. :) how do you like my plans?? I think they sound great! but in all seriousness I am loving things here!!!  I hope that your deer hunt goes great and I will email you next week take care and I hope you know I love you!! make sure to read, pray, and go to the singles ward ;) 

Your Costa Rica brother
