Hey awesome family!

I had a good week, but my comp is sick. Way lame! When the Latins get sick, they think they are going to die! Ha! I was like Mom yesterday with my comp. He was SO sick he couldn't go to Church so we stayed at the house. He slept and I studied. Then when he woke up he was up walking around and talking about the World Cup. So, I looked at him and said, if you're sick then you have to rest. You can't do anything fun being sick! Basically, exactly what mom would have said to me if I was sick and didn't want to go to school. Ha! I thought it was funny.

Dad, sweet news about the lawn mower. I can't wait to get home and do wheelies with it like with the old one. Ha! Just kidding!

Mom, I'm not worrying about the house and getting it done, but when I do get home I'm going to help dad a bunch. Then school and saving money for something amazing! Ha! I let you in on that plan in about a year. Ha.

So, I have a spiritual experience for you. My comp and I were with an investigator named victor. He's 14 and getting baptized this Saturday, which is sweet! We have been teaching him for about a month and I never really felt he was ready to get baptized. Well, we went to visit him about 2 day before his baptism and when I saw him I saw a light and I knew in that moment that he was ready to be baptized. It was amazing! So, that's my experience for this week.

Ok, Tay-man that is sweet! 10 numbers? That-a-boy! You still have much to learn though, but i'll teach you. Don't worry.

Annie, that's sweet about the flip flopps.

Chrissy the boat is lame! The mustang was way cooler. Sell the boat and buy a Camero. That is the way it should be. Ha! I'm glad you all had fun.

I hope you like the pics!

Ok, les amo

Hey my great family!

First off, I am going strait to college and saving money so that I can build a business here in Ecuador. It's going to be sweet!

So, I was very sad when I left Otavalo. basically to the point of crying. But, then I remembered what you said to me mom. You said that I will love the people anywhere I go. Well, that didn't help much at that point, but then me and my comp were going to visit this family called the familia Morocho and the moment that I stepped into the house the spirit just hit me! Kind of like how Aunt Shannan says, "HELLO! What are you doing? You are here for theses people. You are here to help them know what this gospel is all about!" Ha! After that point everything changed. I feel great again! Ha! So, that's my spiritual experience.

As far as the camera is concerned, a Sister from my ward is going to visit her family that lives in the states. So, I was thinking that I could give you the address and when she is there you can send her the camera. It is way safer to send stuff in the states. When she finishes her visit with her family she can bring it to me. She speaks English, too. If want to talk to her you can. I will give her our number.

It's all good here and the pizza is amazing. I eat SO much because it's SO good. Oh, and I left my Jamcam at Shannan`s house. When you send this package make sure to send a bunch of stuff because it will be cheap.

I don't remember if Tay had any other questions, but Dad, take it easy working on the house. When I get back, you and I are going to finish the house in 2 weeks! Bam! Done! Ha! That's how we do!

I am thinking about putting a pizza place down here. It would be a huge success and the bills to run the place for a month would be like $500! Ha! That's for everything; food, water, and lights. Dad, you want in? That's not for another 11 months, though. Then we can talk more about it. Ha!

I love you all a bunch. I will write the address later.

Les amo mucho!

Con amor
