I LOVE SCOTHAROOS and all of the goodies thank you! Thanks for the tie it is awesome and I look like a candy cane! We decided we are going caroling to residence halls on Christmas morning! Really thank you for the goodies and stuff. It's killing me not to open the other presents. My companion has literally like 30 presents I think from his dad. They are divorced but there is no way he will able to keep anything its so heavy. Ha but I's worried about being over wieght too!
MERRY CHRISTMAS oh ya and tell cody that is so cool and to prepare and to write me!!! I don't have his address. Where is Jancen goin? Dang Braiden, you can't get better than me. not already! Sounds like you are doing awesome. Tiffany wrote me and told me about the rocky game! That sounds awesome, tell him to ignore Bubba and realize he is only doing it out of jealousy or how ever you spell that! But that is awesome! Keep doing fantastic! But HEY FAM I will be heading to Texaz-Argentina and then Paraguay! I am so excited to go. only 6 days left, but I think I have 3 hour lay over between 9 o'clock and 12:35 is when my plane takes off so some time between then I will be calling in the morning. Dad could you dear elder and explain the conference call a little more. Do I call that and it will forward to the home phone or something or how does that work? I am so excited, oh and guess what a memeber of the 1 quorum of the 70 came to the mtc to show his son and his family who wants to serve a mission. he found out that there was a district going to Paraguay Assunsion which is where he is from and where he served so he came into our class room with his famil and talked in Spanish and told us about Paraguay. I understood most everything!!! of course then he said that they talk a lot fast, but then we ask him to talk in Gautni and IT WAS NOT LIKE SPANISH! I'm done for. Oh and I also found out that parts of the the east of my mission speak Portuguese! But really studying a language is so much fun! he told us so much and it was so exciting. Did you know that out of all the people in Paraguay 90% of them are direct ancestors of Lehi, people from the Book of Mormon. There is almost no European influence or European people there, so we are teaching thema bout their fathers from the Book of Mormon. How cool is that!?!
Oh and I learned something funny this week. Okay so carver is to hunt and then reflexive form of the verb is become married and the esposas is wifes and handcuffs hahaha. It hought that was so funny!
Oh also I think I brok a bone in my hand 3 weeks ago playing basketball cause it is still purple and swollen and shaking hands hurt but I am not going to health clinic cause there is no way they are making me stay till i tis helad so I 'm just leaving it. It is not that bad but colorful!
This last Sunday some institue teacher can to our fireside and gave this skit by himself. he was playing wilford Woodruf and told the story of the Jospeh Smith from his perspective. It was amazing. There is so much to the story of Jospeh Smith that people don't teach. Like that actually went down in Carthage. the spirit was so strong and I really wish that I could go to carthage agains, but I 'm glad we went that once as a family! After the devotional we sang We Thank Thee O God for a Prophet and every boady stodd up half way through and it was amazing how powerful the spirit was! The MTC is the perfect life and all you have to do is decide you are going to love it and you will love it, all you can eat, feeling the spirit learning a language, basketball, and studying the doctrine all day! Guess what we have like 10 inches of snow outside today and it is our Pday so we got to take pictures and stuff in the snow. It is not supposed to stop snowing till tomorrow so it is going to be aweomse! But I hope that you are enjoying life and excited to call cause I am. I love you family and my favorite scriptures this week by far was sections 120 to 122 in D&C. They are so powerful! when I get back we need to do that scripture chase thing on Christmas Eve again for some things good like a gift certificate! I'll do even better now!
LOVe you BYE
