November 10 2015 The CCM is the Bomb.net

Hey guys I figured out we can send pictures but I don't know how to do that, because these computers are weird. I'm gonna say a couple things then try to answer all of Dad´s questions if I can.

First off, this week was a little bit harder than last. I lost my spiritual fire for a bit and I was hanging out with my Latino brothers and I just couldn´t understand them at all. It was really weird. Then I figured it out. I had slipped into casualty. I was writing in my journal when it came to me. I had been speaking a lot of English and kinda dragging out of bed. During study, I let my goals slide and I had stopped serving everyone around me. Writing in my journal in English was overly easy too. Right then I decided to fully rededicate myself in all aspects and wrote it in my journal. I was gonna only speak Spanish or else I would have to write all English phrases down and translate them. In that instant, the next word came to mind in Spanish and I have been doing alright since. 

Sundays are sooooo awesome. I saw Dallin Davidson in the Feb 2013 MTC devotional by M. Russel Ballard.

Funny stories. One night we downed a five gallon water tank in about 7 minutes. The next night someone whipped out a 21 foot sheet of sudoku puzzles in the hall. My running shoes got a nice hole in the bottom of it so I have had fun with mole skin and duct tape and stuff remaking it and now it's like brand new. Also, in a lesson, the hermanas asked their investigator (a teacher who dresses up) if he would read Moroni 10:3-5 and pray about it to know if it is true...only they had him read Mormon 9:4 instead. It was sooooooooo hilarious. Also, my Latino brothers left this morning for their missions. Elder Taylor and I were crying a lot last night. WE loved those guys soooo much. They took me in and every day told me we were family. I will send you a pic when I figure out how to.

 Annamarie do you know a Megan Stoor? She went to BYU Idaho. She is one of the hermanas in my district. Sorry Dad I will answer your questions next week. Well I love you all.

I do have a bit more time. When we teach lessons, you prepare a lesson so the lord can bless you, but the whole lesson is listening. It's been really cool. Oh guess what, no pictures. They just said so. So give me a couple weeks. I love you all. Joseph smith really was a living prophet of god and Christ is our savior. I love the line from general conference of that humble man. ¨it's true isn't it? . . . .then what else matters?¨ The temple is like 200 feet from the CCM. Oh and today a money truck came to the CCM and the whole street was full of little guatemaltecos with silver shotguns. It was awesome. I said hi to every single one on the way back from the temple.

The other missionaries are here to kick me out. Well I don't know the address yet. Maybe mommy has it. You can probably look it up on google. Love you all.
