Wow it feels like I've been here forever haha. Spanish is coming along slowly, lol im so impatient. Guys I miss my guitars and my music. :| But thankfully, the elders in my district like to sing with me and it's like we are a traveling band or something walking around the CCM haha.
My days are long and at times boring, but every once in a while, we get to lighten up. I'M SO GLAD THEY GIVE US BREAKS. Also, mom, they totally have sugar cereal here, so that's a total dub!
We just got back from the Mexico City temple, and wow was it beautiful! I had really been missing the sweet peacefulness of God's house. Temples are such a huge blessing, and Mendoza is gonna get one in a few years!!!! YYYYYeeeee the work is hastening!!!!
According to my district, I'm the dad of the group. I don't know if it’s my dad bod, or if I’m just the guy that's trying to get everyone focused lol I’m fine with it I guess. I've been trying to eat more veggies so I don't get fat too fast lol. Lord give me strength.
Two elders from our district, Elder Thornton and Elder Halliday, moved in with Elder Gubernick and a few days ago. So now we just talk forever at night, which is my fav. They are all really great dudes.
One last thing. For those of you who know the story of my brother Nolan, this is for you. There is an elder here, Elder Barton, who is actually in the same zone as me, who has what my brother had. He walks with a slight limp, and has a crippled hand. When I first saw him, I almost started to cry, because I felt my brother’s spirit. I knew that Nolan was there with me, and I could feel that he was proud of what I was doing. Elder Barton is seriously the sweetest dude, and he's very capable as a missionary. There have been times that I've just sat and watched him study or get his food in the comedor, and it's like I'm getting to see what it would have been like if my brother Nolan had lived to serve a mission. I know it's a tender mercy from God, and I'm so glad that I have the sustaining spirit of my brother with me as I'm on my mission.
Sorry I can't write more, we are short on time doe. No pics cuz my computer is dumb.
Love yall so much, thanks for the emails!
