HOLY COW BRAIDEN WHAT A STUD!"!!"!!!! that is so cool sounds like a``journal moment experience`` (ha yep from a missionary, actually I’m not doing that well with my journal right now but trying) waiting 4 years doesn’t that put grandpa at like 109 years old or something like that. Any way how are you family? Glad to hear that everybody seams to be doing good back home, but i didn’t hear much about Caleb? What’s up with Caleb?! Lovin life? My life is great this last week was fantastic! A lot of blessing we received! We had interviews with president this last week and it was amazing, he is such a powerful man, although when you are training all he really wanted to do was talk about my newbie and see how he is doing and i kept trying to take it off and on me so he could receive some heaven sent revelation for me to and not only for my comp, ha but it all went over good. My comp is progressing very well elder keller. Changes were not this week, they are next week and i will be with my newbie again. You are always with a newbie for two changes. But I’m fine with that. He is improving my vocabulary but as you can see my spelling is horrible!!! But remember that family i wrote about last week the familia D La Cruz. Well they are progressing so well. They feel the spirit and are a little shy but awesome. i love them so much. We are now talking with the kids to and 2 of kids have fecha for the 29th as well. Yesterday we passed by there house to accompany them to church and we got there and the dad came out and said my wife doesn’t feel good and we are going to go to the doctor.... i don’t know she gave birth yesterday or what happened but the didn’t go to church which was really sad but we had some other people in church that are progressing to. We shared with the family De La Cruz the age of responsibility showing that some of their children good baptized and at the end the said i know Joseph Smith was a profeta and if he said it then its true i trust you. It was so cool. I’m really excited for them! Also we had a really funny experience happen ha! 2 days ago we had a investigador that more or less cares and i drilling the importance of the Book of Mormon and how much value it has for me in my life and for us and right in that moment my comp dropped the guys Book of Mormon in the mud and it was completely dirty and it went silent for a while and then i couldn’t help it but it was so perfect timing and funny that i died laughing right in the lesson and the guy didn’t know how to react but we gave him another one and left.... we will see if he reads it haha! 
It was a really good week. i have been trying to put something to the test. My comp he can be a little down and pessimistic and like that so when ever he complains i try and be really happy about something else and always be grateful or happy about something in place of getting down and sometimes its really annoying but most the time it works really well and it makes you a lot more happier about the situation. Try it, its works. So I’ve almost hit a year in my mission, but for this first full years i have only worn one pair of shoes the whole time and i need to take a picture of them... they are completely destroyed and my shocks are visible in like 3 parts of both shoes. 
I’m reading in secciòn 40`s of Doctrine and Covenants and wow i have learned a lot of stuff about the millennium my guess is that its coming soon! i have grown a love for doctrine, it probably wont help me but i like to learn all the small things. I love you all and am thankful for the letters. o and by they way i sent home some letter like 5 so if you could please pass them off it’s a lot cheaper this way. it costs me like 2 and half dollars to send one letter. ha don’t worry about who they are going to either! elder shaw
