Hey Family,

So this is the first transfer that nothin happened to me... I’m staying in the same area with the same comp. I was kinda hoping for a change just cause change is always exciting. but I’m fine with staying here and with Elder Almeida. We have some really good baptisms for this week so I’m glad that I’ll get to see them. Elder Sanderson is also staying here so that’s cool. He is like my bff (best friend forever???) now. but I feel bad for him. He has been in his area for over 6 months now... but he’s ok with it. It’s a cool area and he got a new comp who is from Hawaii so that will be cool.

As for this last week we have just been working like dogs getting these two baptisms ready for this week. They are really ready for baptism and Pres is really happy with the work we are doing here. We got to see all of the conf. sessions. Yeah, the Priesthood Session was really good. Gabriel was there and he liked it a lot. He could tell that these weren’t just men talking but that they are mouth pieces of our Father. Dona Dina loved conf too. She said the talks just brought her peace and made her want to do better, and she is already like perfect.

Oh man I laughed so hard when I read that story about Monty popping Weenie Man (Tim’s nickname for Justin) in the face and then saying yes to himself. (Tim is responding to this comment we put in a letter to him - - The funniest thing happened this week. Monty is really starting to jabber. He says quite a few words now. Konni has taught him a lot. One thing she taught him is to lift both arms, make a fist in both hands, and while bringing them down, saying "Yes!" (kind of like Napoleon Dynamite when he got the question about the cow right). Anyway, Justin was walking by Monty and Monty accidentally shot Justin with the Nerf gun. Monty turned away from Justin and talking to himself did that...."Yes!" It was so funny.) I can’t wait to play with him. This week I got a couple letters from Mom and one had a pic of him showing his teeth it was the funniest pic ever.

Then it had a pic of Justin getting his welcoming to Honors Society ... holy smokes Justin is a different person. He is changing so much. I don’t even believe it... He actually did his hair.... Don’t tell me he actually likes girls now.... took long enough, ha, just messin. Kimbo is due in 21 days. I’m sure everyone’s on edge. Just tranquilize her until its time. I’m sure everyone would be a lot happier.

I don’t have any pictures right now but I’ll try and take some during this week and send them next week. But thanks for the pics this week. Looks like Mom and Justin got a lot out of conference. Just like I remember - Mom and Justin always screwing around while a prophet is talking ... They just don’t get it do they Dad... Oh wait, Dad was asleep. Just messin. How is the fight against fatness going Dad. ... you winning? We gotta go sky diving after the mission. That would be cool huh. Well anyways I hope you’re all doing well. Thanks for everything. Oh and in the next package all I want is a snow board magazine or two ... and some basket ball shorts - like some big "AND 1" shorts or something. I gave my last ones away to some Brasilian because they said NBA and he loves the NBA but they don’t have it here. Anyways, love you guys. Take care.
