"I got my new companion Elder Fox. He's pretty cool."

So this week was pretty cool. We had our transfer yesterday. We took Elder Sant'anna to the airport and there Igot my new companion elder Fox. He's pretty cool, reminds me alot of my first companion Elder Sullivan. Serious about working but still likes to joke around. He's got two more months than me here in the mission and we're pretty excited to work here now. We almost didn't arrive in the airport in time to get Elder Sant'anna plane. We had to change out the tire on a car on the way. on the way back we ran out of gas... We played some more soccer today and the members made a lot of BBQ's this weekend to give elder Sant'anna a going away kind of thing. The bartender i haven't seen for about a week. He seems interested, but we invited him to be baptized in our first lesson, and he wasn't very interested in that.  There's another girl that i think we'll baptize next week. The missionaries were working a bunch with her family, but not her. I invited her to read a part in the book of mormon (3 Nephi 11), think about that part, pray to know if it's true and pray with the intent to follow the answer you receive. We're going to pass by today to see how it went. Haha yes i have a bunch of "pets" in my house, but they're all going away soon. 

That's cool that you guys all went on the campout. it's always a blast to hangout with the ward. Piano is great, because it gives you a clear understanding of music and a piano can be played alone and it still sounds good, where as other instruments like a bass or guitar or trumpet, are almost always accompanied by another instrument. besides, you can sing along with the piano while you're playing and everyone thinks that's cool ;) i still haven't heard anything about the other package, i'm not sure what happened to it. about the cd with the pictures, we're searching for a post office to mail our stuff now. so, when i find the post office, i'll mail you the cd. i've been putting all of my pictures on my flashdrive, as an insurance. Thanks for the pictures of the campout. Highschool isn't fun, but you get through it, and then you say, "wow, i'm glad that's over." I've only heard about one person that had a pleasant highschool experience, so yah, it's something everyone passes through that wants a good job. Glad to hear from all you guys again, hope everything is going well with you guys there. Have a good one, talk to you guys next week! Love you guys!
