Hey Mom!!
What's up? That sounded like a pretty interesting week haha I'll tell you about mine first!
So this week we had transfers so I had to say goodbye to Elder Thompson but I got Elder Hanks tho. He's a pretty cool kid, we get along really well so that's good! He's a little strange at times but that's probs why I get along with him hahaha but he's been out for 1 year now and lives in Bountiful, Utah. He's a good teacher so it is making me a lot better too. Since he's new to this area I'm in charge of the area. So I'm leading it, like where to go, who to see, what to teach, and lead out in the lessons. It's really interesting I thought it was going to be tough and hard but I kinda like it for some reason haha probs cuz I like being the boss. Trev would understand that ;) But it's still tough tho but it's a great learning experience. It rained a lot this week too so something about Trinidadian's is that when it rains they go into hibernation so it got tough with the follow through's but we made it into a good thing and tried contacting as much as possible. Also I learned that sacrifice brings forth blessings. Cuz the closest temple to Trinidad is Santo Domingo but they do all they can to go there. Whether it's time, money, not having electricity so they can save money to anything. So it's cool to see that cuz it makes you see what's really important. And Dwain is still figuring out his job but if he comes to church this Sunday then we will have his baptism the following Sunday probably and hopefully!
But it sounded like your week was good! That pic is fine to use for the wall. And I miss playing on that backhoe haha I bet Dad is having a hay day on it. And what's up with all the skunks haha the kill count is going up nice! And that's going to be fun to babysit all those kids hahah that is going to wear you two out ;) and I bet gpa was mad about that semi hahaha I could see it in my head now...him yelling at Lytton haha that's good they got it out! And are you learning Spanish along with Trev? haha he's so lucky. That day is coming up just now? Temple? It's crazy! How much luggage did u get him? and when u buy stuff for him, I wouldn't worry about medical stuff cuz they do good on that. And maybe no extra stuff cuz u can buy a lot there.
But I miss everyone at home! I hope everyone keeps on keeping on!
Just think I'll be home soon now haha and the time is going to be fast! But I can't wait till next week! I love you and everyone back at home! and thanks for all you do too! talk to you soon!
