Subj: Hola Familia


Well things are great here in machu picchu and a little chilly. its great to have the weather change but everyone asks me like everyday, arent you cold? because i am always in a short sleve shirt. we didnt have any baptisms this week, but we have three planned for this week! i am loving the experiences that i am having here and am truly blessed of the lord. thanks for all the support and prayers.



Querida mami

Lo siento mami that i didnt get your email this morning but i hope you like the fotos. one is our room in which you can see that we have up the flag. and the other is me and elder silva who was in my last zone its really just to show how much weight i lost adn the last is the baptism of rudi last week bc we didnt have any this week.

I love you and hope you are well. i will write more next week, but hope you sent that package bc i have no more business cards lol. i hope you know i love you adn will read your email next week. bye mom

Yes the time really is flying and we are approaching another transfer which means just one more until we another about the divisions. but these divisions might only be temporary bc the word is that the papers are in for another mission within the next year! i dont think a day has gone by in which i hoped or wanted the 50 lbs back, and this peruvian was still smaller than me just well built and the tallest i have baptized lol. adn i dont know if it was really 50 lbs, but i do know how many inches. i measured my belt and each notch is one inch apart, and i have dropped 5 notches including the new one i made, entonces i have lost 5 inches!

Well i think the suit will be done during this week so monday i should be able to send fotos if the computer will let me send pics, right now i am having trouble. thats so cool that you won the tickets to see all three bands, thats so cool. i do miss classic rock a little. I am sure Jordan is stoked as well. are the seats good?

Tell shaun congradulations on the 1000 club!! thats so awesome that he hit that goal, was it exaclty 1000 or a little over. well thats definately more than i could have done. and more on the squat he has me by 25 lbs at my best. right now he destroys me bc i cant lift at all. but that is so awesome and send my congrats. I also cant believe he is graduating! take lots of pics( or just let mom do it naturally) but send me some. its crazy how old he is and that in one year he will have his mission call.

i am sorry that you got sick but i hope you are better soon. i will add your health to my prayers. provecho on not waking up until noon. i remember saturdays after games doing that but it all seems very long ago lol. i also cant believe that it has been another month and that i have 7. i hope you are doing better today and that this letter cheers you up. I love you dad and i love this gospel. i know that heavenly father loves us and that for this he sends us here in families. you have always been a great example to me and i thank you for teaching me the ways of the Lord ( Mosiah 4:14-15). I love you, and will talk to you again soon.
