ll safe and sound back in good old yucaipa huh? im very glad to hear that grandpa is doing well in rehab. (sounds like hes getting off of the drugs or alcohol haha). Thats a lot of therapy but its better to do it a lot so that he recovers quickly.
Just to let you know i recieved your package already! i liked how the tie was rigged to fall down haha. Great idea. Thanks for the candy and stuff. I havent opened the card yet (not until the bday). Glad to hear that you all enjoyed the stuff that i sent you. but sad to hear tht ryan already fits in my shoes! wowo thats crazy. I cant imagine him already taller than I.
So im in managua and its way different than the places ive been in. Here all of the houses are pegged together like cardboard. In one block there are at least 30 houses on each side and the blocks are only 200 ft long. Its really suprising how small but how populated my area is. We dont live in the church (its actually a chapel now) we live in a house right across the street from it. We eat about a 1 minute walk right behind the church and the sister washes our cloths too. But she feeds and washes for 6 missionaries. I buy my breakfast at a bread shop evry morning. They sell cinamon rolls and lots of breads that are really good.
well spencer stayed in his area. And he stayed with the same companion. Its really a good opportunity for him to learn a whole lot.
This last week we had a series of trainings for the zls. From tuesday to friday we were with president monestel learning basic points taht we need to change so that we can become better teachers nad have more success. MY comp and i have already put in practice some of the things we have learnd and we have seen the difference the simple changes make. Right now we are planning a stake activity called the titanic. We aer goign to build a boat out of cardboard and have a big activity abuot parents and fathers and their roles in life and how they can be good examples and leaders in the home.
WEll mom thanks for everything. I hope you are all doing great up there! Keep working hard and keep the kids with their minds on the mission!
I lvoe you all so much,
Love jonny boy
