Christmas Eve 2012

Hey, hey we're the beatles
    Life has been pretty good. This week we had some good little partys for Christmas which was way nice but killed all of the work ( that we didn't have) we don't really have any investigators right now, and we are working way hard with the members but we have dried up all of our giving wells. So that stinks, But we will get there. We might have a bapt. this next sat. which would be way cool. Tato has been our investigator for 3 weeks and is super cool, we taught the word of wisdom and law of chastity and the next time we showed up he had taken down all of the Tecate posters in his house ( a beer company ) and  he is trying to get married this sat to be bap. So we have an appointment in Tecate ( the city were the beer comes from) wed. to see if he can get married or not. Im praying hard that we can. But It's not easy to marry down here, you need pre maritail chats and tests and drug testing, medical test. a whole bunch of stuff oh and money. What everyone lacks down here. So I'm hoping that we can pull it off.

Thursday we had our mission christmas party. It went well. they tried cooking roast beef and other american food. well it was a nice thought haha. but we had a sweet play. I was the angel. Two little kids wanted christmas but they were jeahova witnesses and so they couldn't have it. So I showed up as an angel and well there wishes were granted in the end of the play. I brought two missionaries to them and they got christmas and gifts. A bible that had all the verses and bap. clothes. While there parents were out buying ugly ties. It turned out really well actually then we all sang the first chirstmas.

Well tomorrow I'm going to call at 12 so thats like 1 oclock your time. I'm going to do it on google. So I hope you can figure that out. I'm not really sure if I know how to do it either but I'm going to try. Its in google plus. So in your acount you can figure it out. Anyways. I love you all tons.

Merry christmas to all

Peace, love, and I hope in heaven youll get your white christmas, cuz on the other side of the spectrum we've got no chance down here.

Rained and Rained Every Day


Hey fam.
   Well I don´t have alot to say this week either. And the letter is going to be short because I had alot of things to tell to the president. But To start it all off, well I´m glad christmas is coming and I´m way happy that there is alot of snow there, that is sweet to here. I´m super jealous and realy jonesing to go skiing. Z your trinks look good. And you eating trash looks even better haha. Thats how we like to ski. Hows price doing. Still skiing way well. Anyways.
 
   This week went super bummer, to gaint bummer. the week rained and rained everyday. Everything was crazy muddy and super cold. And because of the rain, or something we haven´t had anylessons. Everybody is gone, Not sure what happened. And the people were way grumpy this week. We taught a ton of lessons in doorsteps that the people would leave us out in the freezing rain... Thanks haha. Then we were going to have a bap. Tuesday. But the girl was way excited and then here mom started to fight with her and boom. Well she doesn´t want to get bap now. So thats a super bummer. I was really looking forward to that. We did´n´t have terrible numbers but it just felt like a bad week. But I guess there isn´t much I can do. Just pray more and fast harder.
 
Then sunday I took the numbers of my district and they were terrible. But absolutly terrible. And they are actually all working way hard. So its way lame to see that they aren´t having any success either. But well I guess I´ll just keep trying to animarles. Ask collin I´m not sure what it is in english it doesn´t really make sense
 
    We do have two new investigators that are way sweet. Erica and tato. They aren´t married, dink a good amount. He has the girls of Tecate on all his walls. And well we started teaching them last week. They both went to church. We taught them Chastity and they want to get married, Taught them WofW and they don´t want to drink... Well he is alittle stronger willed then her. But he doesn´t want to drink. They may progress way sweet, if they can get married soon. If not well I´m going to drip them But they are way sweet. I hope the best for them.
 
Sorry that my letter is lame. This week the fleas have eaten my flesh right off haha. No  but I do have some 100 bites. I don´t have time to wash my blanket in clorox and do a flea bomb and all that jazz. So well Ill tough it out for another 6 weeks I think haha. LOve you all tons
 
Peace, love, and not being able to open my package is killing me.
 
Love you.
The pres. Gave us new seats. Well the church were throwing them out so we went to central to pic them up. Then we did homemade rootbeer as a zone. Way sweet. and a dry ice bomb... My touch in the party and coming home well. I an Elder here said if we got on the bus with the seats we had to take the picture. It was so cramed that I could even move haha. But I managed the pic.
 

oh and thats my district.

Hola familia

Hola familia

    I´ll be honest, I´m going to keep it kinda short. I´m jut not feeling it today. I¨ve been way good, and having a great time with my comp and everything. He is getting better. Sometimes he acts like a good missionary. But I´m still beating him up here. trying to get him to like his mission and be a missionary. Transfers come next weeek but I wont be going anywere, I´ll be kickin it here for another 6 weeks. But thats nice. I´m going to call you guys by skype the 25th not realy sure when it will be. Oh and about my glasses, its not a hge deal, you don´t need to rush, and yeah I´ve still got a years supply of contacts here, I havent used any of the new ones yet. But what happened with my glasses shouldn´t happen so I was just wondering if there is something I can do. Cuz its pretty lame. But whatevs.

Anyways this week went pretty good. We´ve been teaching way well, or well we´ve been having a bunch of lessons and with members to. So thats nice. we have to be an example for the district and so far we are doing really well. But the big problem is the we had 6 investigators come to church and out of them 0 were the people that had bap. dates. But It was nice to see people there in church. actually 8 but 2 don´t count cuz they can´t get marriend yet so we took them off the list. But anyways. It was way sweet to see so many people there. I´m hoping big things are going to happen here in the next couple of weeks. Maybe I´ll get a white christmas. I got you christmas package today, thanks for everything that was in it. It was way sweet, but Eldr bankhead ate all the chocolate.... just kidding I won´t open it till the 25th. But man thats along ways away. So yeah we had 6 poeple in church and 0 bap. dates.... super lame. But the work goes on. I hope that we get somehting going on in the district. this months we havent bap. and last month we bap 2. So we are wy behind in everything.

I wish I had a sweet story to tell you about an investigator but I can´t really think about anything. We tried cooking popcorn in the oven....that doesnt work. The bag just burnt to crisp in the over. I also bought a sweet electronic muscle messurer haha. I´ve got 13 inch biceps unflexed... well I´ve only lost like 2 or 3 inches here. They used to be close to 16 and now like 12.5 But Its all good. I also bought a new watch It takes heart rate and measures your steps and how fast your going and how far you´ve gone. Its pretty sweet. Oh and a camera that puts your face above an animated body and sings and dances for you. Anyways it costed a fortune but was well worth it... in the end I spent 60 pesos for it all. Like 5 dolars haha thats the best part about mexico. Its like shoping in a gaint nps everything used or in bad packaging but it comes out really cheap. Love it.

Anyways thats it for the week. I love you all tons

Peace, love and well tell my lil bro he needs to go bigger haha

no but really bro be safe up there. and don´t get to good, I still want to ski with you when I get home
