Mother dear and family!!!

Yes, doing intercambios is always fun as you get to see the progress you have made from a missionary just starting and when you have been in for some time.  Not only in the language but also in recognizing the spirit and how much you truly learn from studying all the time and things.  They are always so excited so it makes me want to work harder just seeing how happy they are to be here starting and how fresh they are!  It's awesome!  I have liked doing them but that was my last time! Transfers are this week and I'm leaving.   I'm going to the zone of Las Caobas again but I'm going to be a Zone Leader this time!  It's the same zone where elder Holt was Zone Leader.  So I'm headed back there and I'm excited but I'm nervous as well.   It's going to be alot more responsibility and i just hope i will be the best i can and help the zone to get better.  The lord knows best so it should be great! My new comps name is Elder Richardson.   He is actually from my group in the mission and he is a cool guy so I'm excited about that as well!   The lord just keeps on blessing me that's for sure!  I can't believe it's Thanksgiving already!  The month of November is flying by and that's crazy that Aunt Betsy is having another little one!  Tell her congrats!   That's a bit of a bummer that you aren't having the traditional Thanksgiving in Pinedale but that should be fun doing it at the Cole's!  I hope you all enjoy it and all!

Yes this country is crazy - that's for sure!  I've learned tons and its alot different from home that's for sure but its been a great experience!  i have seen some things that i will never forget that's for sure! And yes I'm pretty faithful when it comes to the journal!   Our investigators are doing great!  Alot of them will be entering the waters of baptism soon.  We have a couple next week but i won't be here but at least i was able to plant the seed and help them out so that's been great!  But once again it's been a bit hard saying goodbye to people.   i don't like it when the people cry, ha!  It really has been great making new friends and i've learned a ton from the people here in my area!  A lot of strong people that have helped me out so much!  It's been great serving here and yet I'm excited for the next assignment and to see what happens.  It will also be cool because an area that i served in before is part of the zone I'm going to be in now so hopefully i get to see some people again but I'll let you all know what happens!

Wow - thanks for the little update on everyone in the family!   I sure love you all!  Keep up the good work and keep going to the temple!   I love that place!  We actually went there this past Saturday!  We took some recent converts to do baptisms so it was great to enter the doors of the Lord's house again!  i love the spirit that's there and it was cool to see some of our converts get baptized for some of their own ancestors and all!   Tell thunder and Rach that i can't wait till the baby is here as well - thats going to be awesome!  I thought Paul and Celeste were thinking about heading up north or not really?  That's coool they are so close now!  And good old Clayton - I'm sure he is loving the Sedona red rock and that area - it's way nice up there!  Is he living there?  Tell Morgs to get feeling better!!! And mom and dad - keep up the great work!   I sure love you all so very much and I'm glad to hear  that you are all doing so great - it makes me happy!   I love you all so very much!  We will talk to you soon!!! xoxoxo
