hola todos!

como estáis? yo espero que todos esta bien! how ... is everyone? from what i hear its been a good week for yal! thats awesome! im glad you got rid of the van and motorhome... or else jj woulda been drivin around pimpin that van like mad hahaha.

cass your comment about bein able to hear my voice when you read my emails made me laugh and made me have to do this...RAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWRRRRR!!! I HOPE WHEN YOU HEAR THIS IN YOUR HEAD YOU FEEL FREAKIN CRAZY!!! JEEEEWWWWW!!! HAHAHAHA ok now that i got that out of my system... but anyway. time really does freakin just fly by huh!? 2 months down already... only what... 93 more sundays and 22 fast sundays to go? but whos counting anyway... I'm really not i just happen to know odd facts like how many months days hours and minutes until i get home... hahahahaa

im in a pretty good mood if yal cant tell! im just kinda restless to finally get out in the freakin field and actually do some good in this world! ha i know we need to get ready and prepare and everything... but dang! you can only teach your companions and fake investigators each lesson a couple hundred times before you start freakin out! hahaha i freakin love little kids i decided... they are the bomb. they are always so open and so freakin cute. here in spain the TRUE spaniards that are really from here, have the most amazing freakin eyes ever. espcially when they are little. they are like a light green mixed with blue kinda... its the coolest thing in the world. and apparently they love our eyes right back just cause they are blue. its funny every missionary here has blue eyes right now and that alone attracts attention when we walk down the street hahaha. it makes me giggle.

so i will be trying to get a phone card today and seein what i can do. and yes i will be calling from the airport on tuesday morning if i find the time... i really hope i do. its totally up to all you guys if you just want it to be family or if you want you can envite some of my close friends or just whatever you guys want to do... its never a bad thing to here my favorite little girls´s voices =) ha so just do what you can. i will probably be calling in the morning here so prolly late night there... most likey around 1 or 2 there... so sorry if thats no bien para ustedes pero... yo no contollar el tiempo aqui... jajaja si entoces... aw crap. ya my bad. just let josh or j tell you what it means... im sure yal are enjoyin the silence with me gone =) so love it up cause in 22 more months its gone!

dad and jj that fire story was hilarious. and im glad yal like the bobcat story haha. mom nice work with the diet! thats impressive! im jealous!

im sorry to hear about scotty b´s dad... es muy triste... pero yo se que su padre es viviend con dios y jesucristo ahora... y esta muy feliz. sometimes we have trials in this life. but now when he goes out to the field he has the oppertunity to servie WITH his father even though he will be on the other side... im prayin for him and hope yal are to. i love you all so much! hope to hear from you soon!
