week 3

Hola Mama!

Ok, I need to make this quick because I only have 10 minutes left. I wrote Michelle an e-mail to tell her Happy Birthday and I wrote to Felipe to tell him and everyone in Monterrey hello. So when you talk to them make sure they got that.

This week was fun, I wrote you all a 4 page letter and you should get it in about a week. I am also going to put a letter to Linda and her kids in the same envelope and you can give it to them just to save money on postage. The weather here is nuts! One day it is kinda cold and POURING rain, but then the next day it is super hot! Kinda like Pueblo.

The language is coming along well. I understand most of what people say to me in Portuguese and my companion gets kinda jealous, but she always says she´s glad I´m her companion cause then she would have no idea what people say to her. My teachers all tell me that I sound Brazilian and that everyone will think I´m Brazilian when I get out to my mission, so that´s good. It is kinda hard though, the other day when I was writing the letter to the Branch I couldn´t figure out if I was writing in Spanish or if it was actually in Portuguese! FOI MUITO DIFICIL!

We just passed off the First Discussion in Portuguese and my teachers said I did a really good job. We are starting to do the Second now, so we´ll see if that one is just as good.

One of the elders in my district, Elder Joshua Vaughan from Bountiful, UT, found out the other day that I hadn´t received a letter so he asked me if I wanted him to write me one and put it in the mailbox so I could get one, but before I could answer him he realized that he can´t since we are both here at the CTM. sorry I don´t have much more time to write or enough time to write in Portuguese (it still takes a little bit of thinking) but I am learning a lot. Tell Heather, Megan, Amy, and Daddy that I´m sorry I couldn´t write them separately and tell Stephanie that I love her and she needs to write me. Call Patrick and tell him to send me his address as soon as he figures it out and tell Hiram congratulations on the races and I´ll be there when he races in a couple years!

I love you!
