Week #52 Perezoso....... Halfway Mark...................

Well this week was a little fantastic! We had the our leadership council with the new mission President and all I can say is he is amazing! President Hayes is super loving and humble and I love him and his family already! In my area this week it has continued to be really wet and hot but of course I am loving every day. I continue to see a lot of success and feel immense joy as we find new families that are ready to embrace this gospel! In my time here I have been blessed to see many families reactivate and to help a few become members. This last week we were able to put a date for the marriage and baptism of the family of 8 that came last week and we were also able to help several other families know more. 3 families came to church this week and I honestly cannot explain the joy that it brings me to see all these families ready to receive the gospel as I do my part! Like my family said this week it's all down hill from here.   I would like to correct them a little bit... it may be down hill but it is only an invitation for me to speed up the pace. :) and thanks to all of the family for that picture it is really neat to see those type of things!  I am so glad to see that Tyler is eating my half of the hamburgers too.... :) 

But speaking of picking up the pace I have a little Spanish lesson for you guys today... so the word "perezoso" in Spanish means two things 1) lazy 2) it also is the name of an animal called a sloth. Like Sid the sloth from ice age 

Okay now that we understand that I will admit that I had a "perezoso" day last week.... (come on you know that was clever) :) but ya we saw a sloth and it was really tough to take a good picture of it in the dark but this was the best I could do for you guys. It is mostly for Tyler because he has wanted to see one since I left. 

Well I hope everyone enjoyed their fourth of July and that they know I love you all!!
