Mom and dad,
This week went by so so fast I couldn't believe it! We had a zone conference and it was great to see Elder Rodabough and the NEW assistant Elder Payan my other companion! They spoil me!!

I told Rodabough and Payan about my struggle with spanish and with the comments that everyone makes. They really helped me think of the gifts that I do have. The gift of making everyone happy no matter what. The gift of humility. The gift of knowing how to have fun while being obedient. And the gift of the Holy Ghost. It made me feel great about how I'm doing and how I'm growing. Sometimes its just better, no matter how hard it is, to think of the blessings you have received in your life rather then blessings that we want but we can't control. We can't control the will of God! All we need to do is have patience.
This week was great teaching MDC. We watched the 20 min video of the restoration in spanish AND in sign language for her daughter Dora. The sprit always is there testifying that Joseph really saw two personages- the Father and the Son. I'm learning a ton of sign language and its hilarious but its coming along. Gift of tongues and the gift of signs!! HAHA!!!
Sunday was great and difficult! MDC got confirmed and it was great! BUT J and S didn't. They were sick so they didn't come. It was tough but there is always this next sunday. Oh well! All we can do is do our part and let the Lord do the rest.
Today as a district activity we climbed Cerro De La Silla! OH IT WAS COOL!!!!!!!!!! It was the coolest thing I have ever done in my life. It was so SICK and you could see everything - ALL of Monterrey and even more! We had a ton of fun as a district and also the hike was so so hard my legs were shaking after. Haha! I have the coolest photos I'll send to you.

I'M SO PROUD OF MY COWBOYS! They must be doing a heck of a job! You all know why they are doing so good??..... cuz I'm on my mission! GO COWBOYS!
With my package I would love a ZEEK t-shirt jersey. Also I would love SEEDS and another mini basketball hoop becuase it broke while Elder Rodabough and I were playing hard core! I would love NEW PHOTOS to see everyone again! ALSO another stockton tie or a cowboys tie! Just some things that I was thinking BUT I will love whatever I receive.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! I hope everything goes well tonight for your dance party.
I love you guys so much! Congrats Sydney for getting the makeup job- you're going to do great grease monkey! I really would love Alaska to be honest! I'm dying to be back on the river BUT if you really want to we can think of something to do together with the whole family but I do have FLY FEVER!
