Week of March 31st 2009

Yo Family,
so the weather gave ya a little site of spring but now it is back to snow huh... it can't stay like that for too much longer so just enjoy it all ya can i guess.
we had a good week this week and everything is going well. i'm noticing that i'm able to turn the Portuguese on and off pretty naturally now. i'm able to just speak without thinking too hard. pretty cool!
i got the easter package this week also and me and my comp are enjoying it. in fact it's pretty much gone already.
the camera is way nice and it got to me untouched luckily. usually if you list that there is some kind of electronic thing in the box, the post office holds it and you have to pay a big fine to get it back. but it went through smoothly. i liked the utah jazz t shirt also. thanks for the birthday presents.
ty and jud are already getting back into the riding this year. i'm sure that they're happy with that. so what kind of bike did ty buy??
it's already spring break at school!! just 2 more months and he will be out for the summer already!! arien will be glad for the break too i bet. that is cool that the principal already had her sign for next year.
so has grandma called ya today to do her traditional april fools joke of the circus in the back yard? silly grandma. ha ha. april fools is celebrated here also. its called dia da mentira. (day of the liar. )
i'm still with my comp from idaho falls and he is going home in 15 days. he is so excited. i guess two years would do that to ya.. we're doing great though and we've got some baptisms marked this month so 'im hoping that we can help these investigators out. i'm gonna be in this area for at least 7 more weeks. i'll make 6 months here in this area but it's all good cause this is a good area. i know right where almost all the streets are here now.
i'm glad that all the guys are doing good in their parts of the world. it's sure gonna be an awesome reunion when we all get back together again to talk our strange languages and talk about the missions.
i get to call you guys next month. mothers day. it will be here before we know it.
i love you guys!!!!!! have a great week.
XOXOXOXOXOXOOXOXOXOXOXXO
