Hello Family,

   Mom, sounds like you are keeping busy.  Tell Grandma Campbell I say hi and tell Grandma and Grandpa Tew that I say hi and I hope they get to feeling a lot better soon.  

  Dad, thanks for the letter.  Sounds like you are doing great. 

  Kevin, tell me how everything's going

  Cheryl,  how are you doing?

  Kyle, thanks for the note.  What are you doing in your classes?

  Douglas, hope you´re doing well.  Send me a note...

  Dani, hope you´re doing well.  Tell the munchkins hi for me.

  Pablito,  I hope you are feeling better and that you recover quickly.  I think the best medicine, according to the doctors here is drink pure lemon juice and soak the wound agua de mango.   Déle pues.  Ahí me avisa cualquier cosa.

   Our favorite moment from the week....  We were walking to the church and a hna de Leon asked me a question about English Grammar.  I was responding... depende... si... and a man that was walking past us stopped and said the following.... depende de que?  me quiero casar con vos, pelo de oro...  It was even funnier because this was one of probably three days in my mission that I wore my hair down (for the baptism) and I decided to wear contacts instead of glasses, and another drunk man had just made a comment about how I was his girlfriend.  So, hna de Leon said that I can either wear contacts or I can wear my hair down. But I can´t do both.  It was funny.  I feel more self conscious about how I look now...  my face is tan and my hair is burnt.  But whatever... 

  Carlos´ baptism was awesome!  Henry came and a lot of members came too.  We are working with members like crazy.  And I really like it.  Last night we had an FHE with our ward mission leader and it went really well.  He invited four people over and we had a great lesson.  It was a great experience.  Carlos´ family all says that he´s crazy for getting baptized again after being a pastor for 20 years, but he doesn´t care.  He invites everyone to go to church and to receive the lessons.   In his testimony after he got baptized he said. I already got baptized a long time ago.  But this time it felt different.  I feel really good.  I feel a lot of peace and a lot of confidence.  It was really sweet.  He told us that he went on a tour of the US to speak in conferences as a pastor.  And he said that he earned 30,000 dollars in a few months.  THAT IS A TON OF MONEY.  and I always doubt what he says but it always ends up being the truth.  We are excited for him.  Hopefully he can be a ward missionary! :)  

 We are working with the ward missionaries and they are working.. Things are going to improve! 

love you all,  I´m doing great.  I am enjoying my mission more that ever.  Hna de Leon is awesome and she´s probably my favorite comp.
