So this week has been great! We are now the oldest people in our zone, and
we still have 12 days left. Our schedule ends though on Tuesday. So
basically for a whole week we'll just be doing studying; so that should
be good.
I took some names to the temple last week,
and I don't know what it was but it took a lot longer than it
should have.
Our district leader changed out this Sunday, it is now
Elder Keddington. A lot of our zone left this week so its kind of quiet
in the residence halls. I got the package from
the tri-ward YM and YW and I love the shirt and the mini notes were
so cool!
I got the blanket and its exactly what I wanted; it's so warm
for what it is.
Well today should be great going to the temple.
Love you all!

Twenty more days!
6 February, 2013
So this week has been all right. The new district are really
nice, and actually they are already our Zone Leaders - it’s crazy! We are
actually getting more missionaries in our zone today.
On Monday, our district had the opportunity to host the
Senior Missionaries which was nice. We basically just carried their bags to their
rooms.
Last night at the devotional we had Don R. Clarke of the Seventy
come and speak and it was really great!
Not much other stuff going on, 20 days though and I’ll be
leaving!
Love you all!
Love you all!

Dr. Pepper and Cheerwine

So this week has been all right, nothing out of the ordinary.
Last night for our Tuesday devotional we had Elder Clayton
from the Seventy come and speak with us and that was great!
I got the package with the Dr. Pepper and Cheerwine. I was so
excited to find it in there!
Probably the highlight of my week was finding a whole
district going to my Mission! They came in this week, but I’m not sure what their
names are off the top of my head. Got a new district last week and 4 sisters
are going to Tampa, Florida, and all the elders are going to Mexico. We are
getting another district today so our zone is getting bigger.
Not much else is going on - just learning a lot!
Love you all!

Krispy Kreme Donuts!
23 January, 2013
So this week has been a normal week. Last night for our Tuesday Devotional we had Elder David F. Evan of the Seventy come and speak to us. He spoke on how exact obedience in our lives leads to miracles, so that was pretty good.
I got the Krispy Kreme Donuts and they were SOOOO good!
The Spanish is coming along. Its our last week in the program, so we're starting to just review now as well as teaching twice a day.
Thank you Kaitlynn so much for the Picture I had about 6 Elders begging for it last night.
Well today we will no longer be the new district in our zone! We are getting a district of 12 in today so that should be fun.
Love you all!

One month down...
16 January, 2013
So this week has been all right. Really nothing new happening - same old, same old here at the MTC. Last night though for the Tuesday Night Devotional we had Elder Holland come and speak to us! That was definitely a great treat because no one knew exactly who it would be.
We still haven't gotten anyone new in our zone yet, so technically we're still the new guys.
Working on the language. I have lots of letters to respond to this week so I'll be busy for the rest of the day. It's nice seeing familiar faces here at the MTC; so far this week I've seen Sister Moore, Elder Earl, and Sister Hand, and another Elder from Palatka.
Love you all!

Sick...again
9 January, 2013
Hello Family!
This week has been an interesting one to say the least. After being sick last Tuesday and beginning to feel a lot better on Wednesday when i went to dinner that night it began again and I was stuck in my room until Friday night!

Thank you so much for the Nutella and flag; even though at
the time I got it I was just laying in bed and could eat it :(.
On Friday my
previous companion, Elder Perez finally got switched and I got placed into a
threesome with elder Clifford Who, from Layton, UT, and Elder Keddington who is
from Salt Lake City, UT. They are both going to be serving in the Chile
Santiago West Mission.
Sunday was great with it being Fast Sunday and all and it
was a great testimony meeting. Monday was just a normal day, but we did this
thing called TRC were we teach real members in just Spanish! It was an awesome experience
to talk with real Spanish people. On Tuesday half of our district left to go to
the Guatemala MTC so within one week our class has gone from 10 people to just
5 now. The week ahead is looking great we should be getting more Elders in our
zone today so we won’t be the new guys anymore.
Love you all!
Love you all!

Happy New Year's!
2 January, 2013
So Happy New Year to all!
This past week has been interesting! On New Year's Eve it was such a great spiritual experience! We had a random
testimony meeting and the spirit was so strong we ended with the hymn The Spirit of God. Then back to our rooms. We welcomed
in the New Year at 10pm since it would be midnight in New York - so it was
good enough for us.
But then on New Year's like a quarter of the MTC was
sick out of nowhere and I was included in that, it was interesting. Nothing too bad, just about a third of our zone
stayed in our rooms for the day. The church helped by getting a bunch of Gatorade and passing it out. Feeling a bit better today! Two weeks
done and they are getting a bunch of missionaries in today so it will be
interesting.
Love you all!!!!
