Week 100 - See you in two.......... days (Last Post)

Soooooo....

Any last, profound words? Not really.

I love you guys a bunch and I'll see you on Wednesday.

This week was cool we had a baptism on my last Saturday. she is super cool, her name is nancy which surprisingly nancy is a common name for teenage girls here in Mexico. we told her about the baptismal interview and she was like dang i have to be super prepared for that. hahaha she read all her pamphlets again watched the Thomas s monson video, read her book of mormon for like an hour hahahaha she wanted to be ready and she totally was.

What else I had a very cool spiritual interview with pres. talked about careers marriage..... awks..... hahaha and my service here in Mexico and what impact it had on my life. how to be more optimistic. idk it was a wonderful experience. to have the president say that christ saw my efforts and my work and he was proud of me.

umm what else...... i love Mexico and my converts and the people that helped me along the way.

and I'm going to be in mi casita on Wednesday.

Loves!

Week 98 - I'm dreaming of a white christmas too...

HEY

sorry im writing sooo late its cause i went to visit guelatao, my old area today. hahaha that was super super great! but..... it took all day......

but it was super super great. idk i really loved visiting my old area today adn the people that i taught... like a plus and a huge con, is that im still the last missionary thats been there. sooo they all were like hey elder blotter!!!  its been sooo long are you back here to stay? and i had to say like noooo... in going home.... soon.... hahaha but it was super nice i love the people there.... hahahahaha i really disliked the ward, but the people there are super wonderful nice, dont really work in callings or visit... but i love them, a whole lot has changed babies born actives gone innactive, new people moved into the ward, idk tons of changs.

this week in teh area it was tough, haha had meetings or weekly planning idk i felt like the days just got swallowed it goes by sooooo fast now, sooo fast, its already december 7th, thats insane, our inv cousin died so she couldnt go to church, that stinks... but we had like another 17 less actives. there is a family here with the hourd of children that i really love. hahah the kids are just so genuine and i love them they have come to church twice in a row now which is awesome.

ummm love my comps, we live 5 in the house and its always a party i try and help them stay on task which i find backwards..... cause im the one with 23 months.... hahahahaha we started waking up early to go to the gym, feeling great. my comp is a homey and likes cooking sooo he makes brecky.

ummm... i was studying and idk its been weird for me to study these last couple weeks cause i feel like ive studied, and i dont know what new to study... not like ive learnedd it all but like what do i study at the end of my mission? so ive been reading old general conf talks and i started reading Doctrine and convenants. and this week we visited the family with tons fo kids and i fely like i needed to share a scrip which is in like DC 6 talks about rich is having eternal life not money, cause this family is poor, and are kind of focusedd on working and its a problem but she was like elder why did you share that? im like idk, i read it this morning and i really liked it, and she says elder i felt like that was just for me, the ear tugging i needed. and then she came to church for the first time in a long while, and brought her mother and oldest daughter who hadnt come the week before... ie the only onther week i went to church here.

next week is insane, deárture interviews, then zone conf then have like 2 days of not leaving the house the temple dedication, then in two weeks is the mission christmas party then my generatino is going to the temple.......... as in chrustmas is cool but almost impossible for missionary work.

LOVE you guys tons. ahhahaha yes mom i watched the christmas devotional live. super cool you went, im sure it was better in english.

my comps father showed up to church this sunday.... hahaha oops? hahaha it was weird.

idk, highlight of the week was probably going and visitng my area today. im still pretty happy. such good people stinks hard that the ward is unsafe, hahahaha id be willing to go back. hahahaha

Oh..... ixtapaluca will be becomming part of our mission in january.... tell brad he´ll be excited he was there.
