Como você está! Homefries!

Hello family, I´ve really missed you guys. A lot has happened this week. The Portuguese is hard but I´m loving every second of it. It gets hard here sometimes. We´ve had some struggles. There were times that I didn´t know if I could keep on going. But my companions are a great support, (Sometimes they can be annoying), but they´re still a great district to be with. It was kind of exciting to know that we are half way done with our mission. It seriously feels like I have been here for only a few days but we just started our 3rd week here. I´m really excited to get out into the field.

I heard about Carlee, you know. Those guys are real idiots. They´re really missing something in not dating my sister. If you want, when I get back, let me come back and knock some sense into them. But not literally, and I´m just kidding. But seriously they are missing out on an amazing woman.

Zac! What are you doing man! You should be killing all of those other runners out there? Why isn´t your team keeping up with you? Just kidding. Hey keep working hard on the running, I know that you are one of the greatest runners in the state and probably in the country. I know you´ll be amazing when I get back. I might actually be able to run with you, when I get back. We do a lot of running here.

Oh by the way, are you guys mad that I took your home-fries gimmick? ( I don´t know if I spelt that right?)

Hey tell Elder Jolley that I´m really proud of him. I don´t get very much time to write emails here. So I can´t get them out to everyone. He really sounds like he´s turning into a great missionary. Serve the Lord with a strong heart Cameron! See you when I get home! Tell him that he better come to my homecoming, because I went to his farewell.

Jordon and Jen, make sure you let Derek remember me. I don´t want my nephew to be scared of me when I get home. Just kidding, I know he won´t be. Hey I really miss you guys. I hope your doing well down in Las Vegas. Man! I´d love to be in that cold weather right now. It is hot down here almost everyday. Not almost, it is everyday.

Yeah things are going great down here. I also will be sending some Christmas Cards home soon, but don´t open them until Christmas Morning, when you're all gathered around, about to open presents. I also think it would be nice to get letters down here instead of email. But don´t do that unless if I say in the next email, I write. Well it´s time to go. I love you guys! Tchau!
