hey mom. thanks for the pics!! the little guys are getting so big! im excited to come home, just to see them! hahaha questions:

How are you? wonderful!!!

How was your week? great!

Were you transferred? no

Was your companion? no

Why was 2 guys from your zone transferred LAST week? i dunno, because the Lord needed them in another area haha

Any baptisms? yeah!

How is Conceição?  baptized and super excited!

How about Isabella??  (I guess she really got "fellow-shipped"  ;)) she calls us a LOT  but shes working in 6 places so she doesnt have much time to learn with us.

Any set for this week? we have a few that could be baptized, but marked firm, not yet.

Any golden contacts? a lot of silver ones haha but GOLD, not yet haha they only turn gold when they accept baptism

Do you guys get to hear the 1st presidencies Christmas message? no, but last year i watched not knowing that i couldnt haha

You said that last week you didn't work a tons coz you had to travel... why were you traveling?  Where did you travel to? we went to Belo Horizonte for a lz coucil, and then i went to viçosa to teach the zone.

How big is your zone?  I didn't realize that part of it is 8 hours away!  wow. there are now 10 duplas (companionships). there were 9 but we got one more in ponte nova.

Did you do anything fun this week? i played soccer today while my comp practiced here haha thats all i remember.

when did you feel the Spirit the strongest? in the baptism! my comp playes violin too. it was really good. conceiçao is super excited.
