Dear Family!

This week i was transfered to Rio Verde. (Green River)

Its the place where everyone wants to go. They split this zone into two zones this transfer.  Im in a branch that now has 6 missionaries here.  My comp and i opened a third area in this branch, so we share an area with 4 other missionaries, but its awesome, Elder Cunha, my second trainer is here with me, he is my zone leader and Elder Carter, my comp from the mtc is here with me as well!   We had a baptism this week and so did another companionship in our area, they are neighbors! it was great!

We got a new house too, with everything new inside, its pretty sweet.  their is a ton of things we have to build still, because everything is in boxes still. and thier isnt a manual... ha. i think we will have to call someone.  its super hot here, about 100 everyday...im literally melting

thats so cool what happened with Brysons family! wow. thats every missionaries dream!

My comp is super tight, he only has 3 months on the mish, but he knows the lessons and stuff pretty well!  He is a brasilian, but is obsessed with american football!!! who would´ve thought?! ha. we will go to a field next week and throw the football. we´re pretty dead from this week so today we will just sleep.

Wow, thats pretty amazing about Olivia. congrats livs!  i hope the discussion went well.

Im so pumped for ger ger! thats awesome! i bet they had a blast.  i remember my first jamboree.  i was pretty dang nervous.  

I cant believe football already started up again. The Grind!

Ha, mariage and family therapy,  i think you know a thing or two about that topic!!!

I was talking about that with some other Elders the other day and my comp, how you learn to love learning and studying on the mission. you really turn into a nerd out here. ha.

Oh, so since we moved into a new house, it didnt have a lot of things, i had to pay for a ton of crap with my debit card, but i will be reimbursed this next week.  So thats what happened if you were wondereing why my account was draining.

Well i love you fam!  have a great week!
