What is up my Family!!!!!!!
I remember before i left somebody told me that in Puebla they are celebrating something every day hahaha and that is flat out true. They celebrate the weirdest stuff and I just dont understand. This whole week has been so weird and everybody ahs been walking around with a big baby of Jesus, i have no clue why but they buy different outfits for him and everything. Some of the things they do here are just so weird haha

Another sick, delicious awesome week here in tlaxcallan and the work is going forward and were just kickin it and working hard and having fun.

We continue to teach Emilio and he is just flat out sweet and has his baptism for sunday the 15 at seven am in the morning haha dont ask me why but thats when he wanted it. He is so ready and is going to be solid in this gospel. This week i have been teaching his daughter english too, she is 17 and actually has pretty good english haha and its pretty sweet because Emilio just makes us food the whole time and he just loves the missionaries. His wife is still kinda cold but when he takes us home after our lessons he always has us teach his daughter in his car on the way to our house its pretty funny and hes so sweet and were going to climb a volcano with him in his ferrari car the next monday haha

We taught the family preciado this week again and we just had such a sweet lesson with them about the plan of salvation with them and the bishop came with us so that was sweet and the spirit was so strong. Ive learned the best way to get someone to do anything is to talk about the family, because everybody wants and loves their family and wants the best for them. So we just really focused our lesson on that and how a family witht his gospel can return to the presence of god for all eternity. That is why this is the gospel of happiness and i love it. We have our next lesson with them on wednesday and were going to try putting a date for baptism so we will see how that goes.

We continue to teach fausta and reynaldo, alli swell with them and they were both at church yesterday and you would just think they wer emembers and bring their hymnbooks and everything ha they are golden and are just waiting for this paper. 

So this week we had our ward mission activity and it was jsut flat out sweet. We talked about the difference between the church and the gospel and the spirit was so strong. Maybe were going to church every sunday and the activities but are we reallyu doing those things that will lead us to the celestial kingdom. Before the mission i just kinda went through the motions and in church i was always thinking about ball or something haha but now i have my own testimony andf i just love the church and the spirit that we feel here and know that just going to activities wont get us to our goal.

This wednesday i was a judge for a school for their english spelling bee. I was judge for four different groups of kids from liked 5 to 13 and it was just flat out terrible. THey were such bad spellers and of course i was the person who had to ring the bell and tell them it was wrong and spell the right word haha needless to say i never want to be a judge again.

On saturday our high priests had an activity and we wen t with them and it was so funny because all we did for 6 hours was eat and play soccer and it was the elders, teh four of us vs the 8 high priests and i was really surprised because their not the youngest bunch of peeps and they went all out and needless to say their were some really sore high preists yesterday at church and they actually won us in soccer haha

Thats about it for my week. Life is good and cant believe i almost have 8 months. THe church is so true and im soooo grateful for my mission and all that im learning. Its not the best two years of my life but its the best two years for my life. Love you guys.
