Hey Mom! How´s everything going at home?? It´s pretty good here. I´m probably not as excited as I should be for all the changes that they made in our ward but oh well I´m not in charge of that. We have three new elders and they all have a lot more time in the mission than Elder Sargent did. I think I would have preferred one more transfer with Elder Sargent but he got sent up north. Elder Alvarez seems pretty cool. He´s from Chile and he has been out on his mission for about a year and a half! I just met him an hour ago so we haven´t taught anyone yet or anything. We´ll see more next week!
Yes Eddi got baptized!! He is great and just got confirmed yesterday in church as well. Mario hasn´t done anything quite yet but he gave a talk at Eddi´s baptism that was great! And he also has a talk in the ward in like a month I believe! Teaching wasn´t the best and we didn´t have a ton of lessons and I´m even more stressed for teaching this week!! I hope it works out. We just don´t have a TON of people to teach. Like ya we have more than the Poway Elders it seems but it´s hard. And now I´m the only one that knows my way around! But it´ll work out.
New Years Eve was good I guess. We ate with some families and didn´t have anybody to teach and went to bed at 11 like we are supposed to haha but I woke up to fireworks several times during that night if I remember right.
I miss the beach! Kara sent me pictures of downtown san diego and they were awesome! Reminded me of when Zack and I went sailing and barely made it back to shore!! It was funny haha. I still don´t know what hand and foot is, but I can learn when I get back.
No I didn´t go to Primarck to buy anything. I got a sweater as a Christmas gift yesterday from a recent convert couple that loves us, so that works!
Breakfast... Well sometimes I just don´t, and nowadays I eat fruity pebbles, but usually i just eat eggs. They are cheap and good here! My memory card has so much memory I dont know if I´ll ever run out of pictures!! However if you want to buy a memory card, maybe like you could send me one and I could send this one home and we could swap them every once in a while? I don´t take many pictures. I don´t know what to take them of.
Kendal LOVED the puzzle!! She said you did an amazing job and she spent a p day putting it together and she loves it! She said that you put two of the same pictures in so it was extra hard haha was that on purpose?? But ya thanks for being so awesome and picking stuff out and sending packages and stuff like that! I loved my presents for christmas and Kendal says her companion was so surprised that was like the only present she recieved was from you! So ya you´re awesome.
Hmmm favorite scripture this week. 3 Nephi 14:11. I hope that´s right. It´s kind of about gifts so I´ve been using it as a spiritual thought this week!! I´m really nervous for how this week will be. I hope good. You know how I kind of like being in charge of stuff and having it be my way, but being a missionary is kind of the opposite sometimes haha so we´ll see!
Hope you guys have a great week! I love you!!

Oh also, one of my goals for this year was to read the bible, but like not during personal study time just when I have extra time in the morning or at night. I´m going to finsih the book of Genesis soon. It´s weird. Way different from the other books. I also finished the Book of Mormon again the other day! It was cool!! I might start in spanish soon!
