My dinner when I get home will be mashed potatoes, hashbrowns, pulled pork sandwiches, brownies, ice cream sandwiches, cream soda, and gatorade. Just so y'all know. haha and Cactus Cooler! But before anything HAPPY STINKIN B-DAY TO MY BEST FRIEND IN THE WORLD! MY MAIN FART-FACE MAN CARTER LANCE! I think I'm gonna cry. He's 16.. HE'S 16! He can flipn date!? Brigham! Did you hear that!? The kid that ate a moth can date girls! I'm going to throw up. Aw Man! Sure do miss my best friend and watching movies with him all night. Well it was more like Carter watching for 10 min. and then going to sleep and me being me, has to finish a movie, no matter what time it is. haha. This kid is the greatest kid I know and I sure am proud to call him my brother. And so help me if he gets his first kiss without me being home I will make him pay oyó Carter Lance? Sure do love ya kid. Have a blast on Thursday bud. And if the Jeep is still there, I give you permission to drive it. But don't even think about touching the Prowler. ;)
Well! This week was super tough. Really hard for us. Don't think the fam. M** is going to get baptized. Herman Ev**, the wife, is super pilas and she's just the greatest thing. Who loves her husband with all her heart but the hermano J** is kinda ... don't know how to explain it but his whole heart isn't in it like Ev**. And we've been talking and praying and just don't feel like it'd be right to marry them in this moment. Because we don't want a marriage that lasts for a year or 6 months. We want them to be a family for all eternity, and the hermano just isn't ready for that yet. They have had and are having some troubles in their relationship and it's so stinking' hard for me to accept this because after 15 months, I still haven't found a family that is ready to make the baptismal covenant and prepare to go to the Temple. Still trying to understand the Lord's will on this one. But we keep on keepin' on!
Some things that happened this week are, we went paint balling as a zone and my comp got wrecked. haha, super fun! Also had our zone mtg and it was probably the best one I've ever been apart of. We also took Tuki to take out a tooth...saddest thing I've ever seen, and we also moved one of the investigators of the hermanas from the floor to a bed because he drank. Crazy Stuff! Really was reminded this week how powerful testimonies really are. And the spirit can use us more when we have our hearts in the right place. I invite all to think and ponder really where your heart is.

This week I'm thankful for my family, the virtue of patience, a stove, peanut butter, my new love for paintings, tajadas, good dentists in the US, stores in the US with different kind of food for a good price, our zone, my compa, email time, pictures, paintballing, laughter, jokes, finding people, my feet, good health, my Savior, the Book of Mormon, prayer, integrity, anddddd PDAYS!
