my book for you all!!!:) sorry its so long:) December 1 ,2008

Sup Family!! thanks for all the e-mails!!! it sounds like evryone is doing good!
thanks so much for the package!! on tuesday at my zone meeting i received two packages!! one from you guys with presents in it and the other from the ward!! I opened the ward one first and was totally excited about the candy bars!! and the peanut butter!! and when i got ready to open the 2nd one my comp wouldn´t let me and told me I had to wait for natal. so i said okay. then that night i remembered my oil was probably in it so i opened it up and got it out. and i am very excited to open my presents! a few things i found out about packages. yes everything will melt more or less... chocolate, jolley ranchers. but they all still taste amazing!! the ward sent some chocolate bars and some jolley ranchers, i was going to save the chocolate bars for Christmas but yesterday was way depressing ( i´ll talk about it in a little), so i threw two in the fridge for me and my comp. but when we ate them we realized then had a little bit of a soapy taste...so i found out, if you send soap and candy bars put the soap or the candy bars in a plastic baggy. but don't worry because they were still amazing!!! and number two, if you send jolley ranchers, leave them in the original package, because our house is infested with ants and i put the package under my bed that night and when i woke up the ants had found the jolley ranchers. but no worries! i battled them off. oh and thank the ward for the socks! i was out of socks that night and had to wash but i knew they wouldn't have time to dry, and luckily enough, new socks came just in time!
oh yeah.. michael.. who the blaze is brittni... all i know is that she gives you music.. come on give me more than that...:)...oh yeah chanae.. i can see orion every night:) oh and woody the wood pecker is huge down here.. weird huh. his name is pica pau.
so we didn't have a baptism last night because he has to wait for a while to find out if he can be baptized which is really sad cause Ricardo was soo excited, and he and his newly wed wife want to get marrried in the temple... yes, we had a wedding on saturday night!! it was awesome! my first wedding! his wife.. thelma is a member and fell away for about 8 years and now we are reactivating her and trying to get ricardo baptized... so that was way depressing when we find out he couldn't be baptized Sunday, but I'm pretty sure he will be able to.. so now we just wait.
yesterday was depressing because we are working with two new people.. Raquele and Ivanilda... and they both said they would go to church but they weren't there and since they were not there we can't count them as new investigators and they can't be baptized this coming sunday cause they have to go to church twice before baptism. so no baptisms this coming week either unless ricardo can be. you know the scripture where it says that ammon and his brethren trembled at the thought of losing one soul, well i think i am beginning to feel the same thing for my investigators. i get so down when they tell us to leave or reject us. it just sucks. cause basically, after we teach them, they have to choose salvation or damnation more or less. either get baptized or turned away when they know it's true. it kinda sucks, but when they accepted, wow! it is the best feeling in the world. my favorite thing to do is end the day on lesson 1 and they comite to pray and read! it is so cool! i feel so invigorated and ready to go! it is awesome!
so I have my first snake investigator. a snake is a g irl that likes and hits on you more or less. Raquele, she is thelma and ricardo's friend, she is 17 years old. and she scares the crap out of me! she is really nice and a really cute and she is always looking at me.. oh, i always get way nervous and start praying like crazy. hahaha, it's really funny, she's harmless, but i think it is because i'm not used to being around s, so she scares me. but don't worry :) it's no temptation because i am here to serve the lord:) i just think it is funny and figured you guys would like a good laugh. :)
so for the wedding, i let ricardo borrow my shoes, and having just been wearing one to save the others after these wear out, but i let him borrow my good ones and i haven't got them back yet. :) so hopefully i do:) but no worrys:) i know the lord is watching out for me and my feet:) and if i do have to get more in the future i can get them from the mission office. and yes, just keep sending the letters to the mission office. that will be easier.
sorry this is a freakin book! i just have alot to say i guess. yeah when i left the ctm i went to the mission office for instruction, then that night we ate dinner at sister's house then we slept at some other missionaries house. then the next day left for natal. umm.. oh yeah.. dad... for lunch today (lunch is the big meal here) we made hawiian haystacks, and we had Fresh pineaple and Fresh mango juice!!!! it was so good!!! Here you can buy 4 mangos for 2 heis, which is like a 1 dollar. and they are fresh and big and amazing!!!!!!!! and the pineaple are so good!!! wow!!! they have awesome fruit!! and the banana's are amazing to!!!!! Wow!!! well, sorry i didn't send a letter today , but i should get some mail tomorrow then i can reply to it and send one as soon as possible. I love you all!! thanks for all you do!!!!!
