ALLLLOOOOOHHAAAA!!!!!!

How's my awesome family and friends doing. i hope everything is going well. i keep hearing that it is snowing over there in utah and im really jealous :( man i love the snow. dont get me wrong im loving summer time over here. its gonna be summer for the next to years yeah! we're starting to get into the rainy season here so it rains on us almost every day. its not to heavy of a rain though. its only been way rainy a couple of times and i was drenched but when all the old aunties and uncles see young people walking around without rain coats they pretty much have to let you into there home. so theres plenty of good teaching opportunities when it rains haha! OK so now its time for the story of the week.


So i don't know if i told you all this or if i only wrote it in my journal. but there is this couple in our ward and there name is the Miyashrios. they are so cool and they have us over for dinner every week. Bro Miyashiro is the Organist for our ward...but get this he's blind. he is probably the best piano player i've ever seen and it blows my mind. anyways thats besides the point. so The Miyashiros grandaughters are lesss active girls. there names are Shantel and Shalay. one day they told there grandparents that they wanted to get active again. so they invited us over for dinner one night when there grandaughters were home. Shantel has a boyfriend named Ernie who isn't a member. so we started to teach them the discussions and we only got as far the Restoration because the next week Ernie was flying to Italy until July because he is Friggin amazing at volleyball and he was gonna play on a team over there. i was so bumed when i found this out. i really wanted to teach them. i could see Ernies desire to Learn more about the church and Shantels and Shalays desire to come back to church. anyways so we only got to meet with them about three teimes until Ernie left. so Ernie was in Italy for about a week and yesterday at church we found out that he decided to move back here and that he felt like thats not where he needed to be right now. YEAH BUDDY. i was so stoked when i found this out. that means that we get to teach Ernie the rest of the Discussions and hopefully get him Baptized. I have some really high hopes for Ernie Shantel and Shalay so hopefully we'll see some miracles.... The Lord Works in Mysterious Ways and i LOVE it haha!  Anyways thats the cool story for this week.

Oh yeah im happy to tell you all that I've Lost 10 pounds since ive been out here and my pants are getting big haha. im gonna try to keep shedding the weight but who knows whats gonna happen if i go to a samoan or tongan ward and when i go to a car area. anyways im looking super sexy! just so you all know. OH and im getting pretty good at the Ukalala... im not sure how to spell it but it is a good guess. but anyways, im outta time but i hope everything is going well back at home with everyone! i love all you guys keep writting me OK!!!!

LOVE YOU,
