"I don't give my autograph to just anyone...;)"


Hey family!
We had a pretty good week. thanks for the photos. Does grandpa shoot pretty well? :) we had a baptism last week which was neat, a 15 year old girl. She was a reference from a member here, and it was pretty simple teaching her because she didn't have any problems with any of the commandments and her friend would take her to church. That stinks that Laura got the stomach flu. really annoying just laying awake in your bed trying to sleep and then run to the bathroom again and again. i know.. i know.. ;) did Carlan get through the sickness and seizure effects? That's cool that Isaac got out to the MTC. That's way awesome that Jordan is going to Taipei, Taiwan. He'll be one of those missionaries that get back and when everyone's talking about their mission he'll just kinda blow everyone with his stories... haha.. even though the mission really isn't about that it's just like... ya.. seems like he should get some pretty unique experiences there. :) Speaking of unique experiences... we got to play basketball here for i think the first time outside of the MTC. We all kind of had to relearn it but when we got it going, we had a blast. The Brazilians that we're passing by just kind of watched all curious like. We invited them to play, but they just tried playing after we left to get some water. They probably never seen basketball except on TV.. if that. Everyone's just way interested in soccer here, the world cup and all. Last night was pretty interesting. Two girls stopped us and.. asked for our autograph. I guess the mormon americans are getting pretty famous or something here in the neighborhood.. but i told them that they'll only get an autograph if they go to church this sunday. it's true.. i don't give my autograph to just anyone... ;) So this is the last week of the transfer, next time i talk to you guys i might have a new comp or be in a new area. I'm not exactly sure when i'm supposed to come home. There's some weird stuff happening with the missionaries that came from the other mission so i might be coming back in the end of august. There's a missionary from my district that's going to go i think a transfer early, which is six weeks, because of the mission trade, so my companion thinks that'll happen to me too... i'm not sure how switching mission has an effect on our leave date, because the visas don't change, but i'll talk to the secretaries next time i'm there to see exactly when i'm marked to go.

Thanks for the photos, if you guys want to send more, that's fine by me. I'll try to send some photos to you guys. Love you guys a bunch! Thanks for the emails! Talk to you guys next week.
Love, Andrew
