yeah i got all my snow stuff. ive had it for a while. i got transfered way out denver side to Roxburough. inbetween denver and colorado springs. its pretty nice out here. im loving it but i do miss my last area. i sent a letter on saturday so hope you get it soon. its kinda crappy but oh well
 
My new companion is Elder Izatt. (eye-zit) hes soo funny i love him. we get along so well and we are so much alike its scary. we have pretty much the same backround and past so we relate so well. we live pretty much in a mansion by ourselves. the family is in costa rica till february so its pretty nice. we stay in the basement which is under construction so its a mess but still nice. and we have a ping pong table and Izatt kicks my but all the time its sad but im getting better. im so excited for this next transfer i can already see the blessings and miracles beginnig to flow.
 
Izatt is from Gillete Wyoming. and he is way cool. He is a Visa waiter going to Brazil. His portugese is pretty impressive. he gave me the whole first lesson and i understood most of it and the spirit is way strong still. i love hearing him teach hes awesome. he has come from a really rough past. three of his best friends commited suicide within a year. and after all that he has been through he is so strong and he has come a long way. hes great. i love him. i cant help but tear up when i hear his story. he already has some people on date and thatll be happening soon. the Amsbacher family is soo cool. the kids were baptise a while ago and now the dad steve is going to be baptised soon and his wife tracy soon after hopefully.
 
there is a brother in the ward. brother massias he is soo amazing. we had dinner with their family and i kinda told him where im coming from and my struggles and he is soo full of love its crazy. he gave me an awesome pep talk. i needed it too. i love how the lord works. im doing so much better now. we have a car still so im happy about that. im loving my mission and its all flying by its crazy. theres some really great families in this ward.
 
the letter i sent has a bunch of videos on the sd cards for you guys so hope you enjoy haha. i miss you guys so much its crazy. it feels like ive been out for a while now. and im loveing every second of it. I AM A MISSIONARY.

oh and we got to go to the temple. i loved it. we go the first wednesday of every month 730 morning session. the new video was great. i loved it. i thought it was funny how adam and eve got sent to the desert wasteland and it was just arizona haha. of course. its wierd tho cuz they do if from start to finish all in one room. then you go the the celestial room. it was way cool i love the temple so much. and i got to see a bunch of my friends. it was great. tell wendy and Mike and laura to call president and they can get permission to come see me and take us out to lunch or something ;) haha 303-929-2483,  i guess im living in littleton. but i live up in roxburough state park.. idk the ward is called roxburough.. just google the address i gave you. im really close to colorado springs.

i am being transferred. ill let you know where im at as soon as i can. transfers are tomorrow so yeah .. i hate this we just barely put like 6 people on date for next transfer and i have to leave. one of them went up to president murdock after stake conference and demanded that i come back for his baptism haha "we started this thing and were gonna finish it together" i love him. the other one pretty much said the same. i hate this feeling. ive grown so close to this ward and i love the people that we are teaching and now im being torn away. weve all become like family up here. weve been teaching a family and weve grown so close to them Michelle Butler said she has adopted me and Mickelsen. haha i love them im so sad that i have to leave them. theres lots of amazing people here. me and another elder.. elder muir went on exchanges and we went to see sister Duty and gave her and her daughter in-law blessings before they went to the temple. and it was so amazing. both blessings they said pretty much quoted their patriarchal blessings word for word. it was soo amazing. im gonna miss them. my comp was amazing and it sucks to have to leave after only one transfer together. he said hes gonna miss my cooking haha. got a reputation. its crazy cuz sometimes ill catch myself just talking like ive been out for over a year. and im like did i really just say that? i just got all spiritual.. haha i love it. most of the time i just act like i know whats going on.. haha i just wing it. theres pretty much no way to plan anything around here. i really hope i get to come back for the baptisms. i love you guys soo much but i gotta go. ill write alot more soon. i got lots to say.
love
