I'm going to be an uncle

hey everyone. sorry this email is coming late.... yesterday me and my comp had to take an elder to a doctor and so we couldn't email... but yeah....

this week has been kind of crazy... but good. but first before i start my normal rant...jaja.. i got news i don't know if u all know this now cause I'm late to write, but i know something u all don't know.....
and just to give it away: Jason and Amanda are going to call their kid Bryce Batistuta Taliercio if it's a boy and if it's a girl Brycina and they will make up the other 2 names... and so, if nobody got the hint, Amanda is embarrassed..-- oh, i mean pregnant... and so in nine months as i predicted there will be a little runt going around bugging us. but yeah, that's cool, gots to say congrats to Amanda and Jason for helping.... but i will send some advice to the both of them so they will deal with it alright. but yeah, i might be home to see the baby if u all want to keep him in for like a month more.... just saying it would be an option.... but congrats

but yeah, this week was crazy in the sense that this Saturday we got a baptism. her name is karina, she's like 30 years old, and she has been investigating for like 4 months here. but yeah, she is a great lady and the gospel has already help her out a bunch. she had lots of problems, and still does but she is just an awesome lady. so hopefully that goes well.

then this week or sea yesterday, we needed to plan an activity for the zone, we did a scavenger hunt in all of centro bahia, it was good. a lot of elders liked it so that was alright but all in all we are doing good. we are teaching a lot of people and most of those people are kind of screaming help us but at the same time they aren't what, i guess, a lot of people would say are easy, but once they get it they are those who get it and never doubt. so i like our gold.... this sunday we found a lady, her name is titi, her husband died a couple days ago and he was mormon, but inactive, but then sunday she came to church and she is really good. and so, all in all, here in this area it's been good... actually great/ i really love the area-people-barrio. so that helps me a ton... and so that's kind of what's been going on here.

as far as the world cup here, it's crazy but mainly after they win. during the game there is nobody on the street or anything, so yeah. it's interesting. but yeah,r the deeper they go the better-crazier it will be, so we will see what pres does.

I'm lucky to be in this barrio cause there is almost always food, they do it more like the States where they sign up, and aren't forced; in some other areas they just throw the names down, and they don't even know so i like this thing better as of right now... but what i eat is normal, something I'm seeing is there is not much variety here with the food so... milanseas are my favorite, but it's all good, so i don't complain whatever they give me... everyone knows I'm allergic to fish....lol..... i tell them that... but nobody believes me.. and here food's not strange so i haven't really eaten anything out of the normal weird for here, like i have eaten tongue, chinchulin, morcilla.... by far the worst... but yeah, not much.

but yeah, something I'm missing the most is driving.... we don't drive so that bums me out but yeah what can i do... can wait to get home to the volvo.... love that car so much..... but yeah, so thanks for all the love and the support. i love u all and miss u all....

peace out
