this week has been a great week! todays been really lax and easy. we played volleyball for a while and I took a nap. its so weird not being occupied all the time. to be honest i dont know if i like p days haha
so my 2 teachers names are hermano santiago and hermano tapia. they´re both like 5´3´´ and the happiest guys i've ever met. hermano tapia tells us he likes to listen to desiigner when hes not teaching. every once in awhile he'll say ¨oso negra y blanco, prrrrah prrrrah¨ which is the panda song in spanish hahaha and he´s always dabbing. he´s hilarious. hermano santiago is the best. everytime we see him he gives us the biggest hug and picks us up. there is so much love in this guys heart. next school year he´s going to the states to attend BYU idaho. he´s so excited about it. he says he wants to buy a food truck and sell tacos from it. apparently he´s an amazing cook. and a really good teacher too.
we had a devotional on sunday by the mtc 2nd counselor in the presidency, presidante Lyons. it was a devotional on the family proclaimation, and he told us elders that if we werent married within a year of being home after the mish then we have a couple of screws loose in the head. dont know how i feel about that haha
so this week my companion elder lovelace told me that before he went on a mission, he tried out for the voice and was the last one cut before the actual primeire. out of like 2 million people, he was number 81. kids got an amazing voice. its great to be able to talk to someone who loves music as much as i do. we always sing Lion sleeps tonight becasue you know, what else can you sing at a missionary training center?
an elder in my district got his wisdom teeth out this mormning. apparently the doctors in the states told him he didnt need them out, but then he got here and was having tooth aches. poor kid. elder olsen form north carolina. the operation took about 5 hours haha

Dad! this week has been for sure a great one!! the language is improving, im getting better with teaching and showing love, i just feel so empowered in a place like this. its just so comforting.
i want to share with you a video we watched in our last devotional. its called the current bush, taken form a talk by elder kristofferson. you´ve probably seen it alreday, but i challenge you to watch it again, preferably as a family. i know youre working during the night and the schedules are really hard to make out, but you need to make sure that our family is praying every night and having FHE weekly. we dont understand all the blessings we recieve when we follow the commandments of the lord. our family will be blessed beyond belief
i love that story from the temple. its very intruiging. ive been twice now to the mexico city temple, its glorious. truly a house of the lord.
you know, me and my companion were going through a couple of songs we both kneew, and ended up singing Aly & AJ and got the whole district in on it. such a fun moment, and it just made me think of you. haha remember when we would listen to josh groban when we were kids and just yell the lyrics ¨you, are. LOOOVVVVEDDDD¨ i love that memory.
thanks for writing. im sure you´ll get right back into the habit. love you dad. thanks for all the prayers. i know that they really do help.
