Week #21 in Mexico

Dear Family,

It is going hot, humid, smoky, and good here :) I am excited that you have only 4 days of school left, I loved the summers!!! They were the best hahaha. Good luck with all the girls camp and everything! I think that is another reason that I loved being gone so much during the summers, because I didnt have to do as much of the working part of it ;) hahaha! That is so cool that they won state!!! Yes I do wish it could have been me but what other better thing to have than your best friends do it :) It made me happy to hear that they won it!!! HAHAHA I love the dancing queen part of the year ;) and am excited for the wig picture!!!
No they don't shut things down for anything like that, they arent that lazy... they just do it at different times of the day and don't shut down everything... hahahaha good luck with the flower bed and with the gates too, hahaha what kind of gates do you want? The white kind? The fridge is still broken and he broke it trying to clean the ice out with a screwdrvier... I have not gotten my package yet but it should come either in this week or the next one... yes transfers are every six weeks and we have one today. We are staying the same for one more transfer which is good because I really like my companion :)
We had two baptisms this last Saturday and they are the sister and mom of the kid we baptised last week, and we have a date set in two weeks to baptize the dad. So after that the next goal is the temple :) I baptized Fausto (Kid) and Caritina (Mom) and Elder Gutierrez baptized Elizabeth (Kid). Then I taught a Family Night with a member family about Temples, little did I know that the dad and two kids were inactive and they weren`t married in the Temple. That is exactly what I did my FHE on. So it was kinda like BAM this is what you need to do kinda thing. hahaha The bad news is the other one of our investigators that was going to be baptized had to go to Cancun for his job for a month. We were both like.... uhhh what?, because it was the day before and everything :( but we will still be here for when he gets back :) will you check how many pounds 75 Kilograms are, I benched that at the gym and I am pretty sure it is more than my max when I was at home.... So I decided on a thing that I am going to do when I get home and off the airplane, (probably Jessica will only get this) but I am going to yell "Mission Complete!!!" just like Fox on Super Smash Bros. I thought it was a great idea when I thought of it and really funny too!!!!! hahahaha Jessica show them what I mean, and Yes Mariana is a member here, you can accept her if you want. Also go onto my facebook and accept anyone that is from here, they want to see pictures of me and I have none... And to end, a weird funny story. We were on splits in a different area so that our investigators could be interviewed. The first lesson we have we are talking about the Restoration, we get to the Prophet part and he informs us that he is actuallty a prophet too... So he told us how and why for about 30 minutes, then he also said the final prayer. During the prayer he stood up and put his hands on both of our heads, I had no idea what to do so I just kinda let it go. IT was very weird and very funny hahahaha.
Will you send a package to one of our members? They said it is a lot faster. Her address is
Margarita Antonio Gonzalez
Calle Nicolas Bravo #92
Col. Gustavo Diaz Ordaz
C.P 9810
Cosoleacaque, Veracruz
If you could (doesn't have to have everything) have the package contain, Black Cherry Shasta, weight/resistance rope (strongest), Licorice (choc. reg. black), Candy (Reeses, Starbursts, Skittles, Gummy bears, Good and Plentys) stuff like that, and some treats for the family (Warhead treats, they said they likes sour so get them the black ones, Reeses, Good and Plentys, Licorice (red), Twix, They said to have you put your favorites in there) if you can great if you cant great too :) also let me know in like a note or something what is for them and what isnt... hahaha Love you guys Thanks
Love Buddy

Dad's Letter:
hahaha thats funny, hope you are enjoying your day off. We had two baptisms last Saturday and they were really good. :) so we are almost done with that Family, just need to baptize that dad now and it will be complete! I baptized the son and the mom and I think I will be baptising the Dad too. So that was really cool, and it is a good thing because the baptism blessing is the only one that I know in Spanish hahaha.
That is awesome that they are state champions!!!!!!!!! Give them hugs for me and tell them great job!!!!!!!! :) I was so excited to hear about that, I havent gotten the e-mail from Riley yet but I am anxiously waiting for it!!!! That awesome about the Pirates now, but sad to hear that the players are going to be leaving, but I guess that happens and we already know how that feels like hahaha. I did get to see the end of the Man U vs. Barca game. It was on where we were eating, and yes Messi is an incredible player. So the Final for the NBA sounds like it is going to be exciting!!! As you know, I love when people are stupid and say stuff, especially when the people they say it about make them eat their own words. I really hope they win and then Lebron makes another commercial like his last one about something like "told ya so" or something like that! hahahaha That would cool for the Jazz to pick up Jimmer, but I would rather have him go to a team that actually has a chance or is good... hahahaha that way he gets a lot better too.
I cant believe it is still raining! that is a ton! But I am glad everything about the floods is alright, so far. I am also glad you liked my sign off, I am trying to think of things like that for all of them but it is kinda dificult hahaha. Transfers happen today and me and my companion are staying the same for another cambio. Our investigators are doing great and the language is coming along :) The fridge is still broken and the guy hasnt gotten ahold of the person that can fix it so still no cold anything!
Well Love you,
Love Buddy :)
