May 16, 2011

Hi!

Thanks for the return kiss :)  And thanks for keeping up the blog, I enjoy it - Tiffany´s is awesome, too :)  Here´s an idea, if friends of Tiffany or me want to know about the missions, but don´t know about the blog - you could put the address of the blog on facebook - Tiffany´s address on her page and mine on mine, or something like that.  Maybe, I don´t know.

I`m going to mail the box today.  I finally got it ready this week to put in the mail, along with a few other letters.  

I`m glad to hear everything`s going well.  I enjoyed the pictures of Diane´s family - Holy cow, they look older (Nikki and Bryon)!

Yes, I would come from Oregon to play the Tabernacle Organ.  Although seeing as I´ve already played that (for only 2 minutes, but still...), the Conference Center Organ is higher on my bucket list right now.

Not much to write, nothing much happened out of the ordinary.  Oh, I think I forgot to tell you - a few weeks ago, when we contacted someone sitting on his front porch, his wife brought an English Bible, King James Version (but not the LDS version - it doesn´t have the references to the modern scriptures).  It´s white, and the words of Christ are in red.  Their son had recieved it as a gift in an activity, and they don´t speak English, so they didn´t want it.  So I have another Bible in English, the same version that we use, but without modern references.  They didn´t accept our message, though.

Ummm......

If I´ve ever said that I´d never get tired of Mexican food, I take it back.  I´m not completely sick of it, but it is kind of boring sometimes - almost every day tortillas, beans, rice or vegetables, and some type of meat.  Every once in a while, there´s something different, but mostly that.  But, it´s food, and I have to eat, so...  I love the mangos, though.  At this time of year, we get offered a mango almost every day, because the mango trees (there are a lot of those) are producing.  There are also lime trees everywhere.

Oh, I decided that I want to learn to dance when I get home.  My companion dances (folklore).  He was dancing in BenAmerito (the Mexican version of BYU - founded and kept by the church), and he really misses being able to dance all the time.  Also, there was a folklore dance program put on by the youth in the stake this week, to which we went.  So, I got the desire to learn to dance.  Besides, any wife loves her husband more if he knows how to dance (hehehe).

The church is true!!  Take care of yourself, and keep up with your testimony.

I love you.
