Hello From the MTC

To answer some of the questions

The flight went flawlessly

The Package Mom Sent Came and i enjoyed it

I see Sister Kramer almost every day and i got to visit with her on our temple walk

Lots of fun here.  Learning the language is hard but considering i am only a week and a half here i don't mind the fact that i don't know the language.

It is nice living in a place were everybody is willing to work hard and try to be their best.

Tell David that i am very grateful for him waiting for me at the MTC when i came here.  I will try to send letters when i can on P Day, however there is always something that needs to be done

That was a pretty neat story about the people who live at the Fordhams old house.  Hope that turns out well.

Whenever we here a devotional here it makes us very excited to get into the field even though we don't know Portuguese yet.  Everyone just wants to go out to the field and teach.

It is kind of interesting to see how desperate people here are to hear from home.  Everyone loves letters and packages.

One person in our district got his new flight itinerary to go to Sao Paulo.  It is very random it seems as to who has been getting their visas.  I figure the lord still wants me to learn things here before he sends me out. 

Something random that happened though was that i found out that one of my pants we ordered was a size 34 by 34.  I thought it was strange that all the other ones fit but this one.  The Stafford shirts we got are very nice and i like them a lot.

Elder Ballard and his wife spoke at last Tuesday's devotional and that was very awesome.  Mckenna will probably tell you if anything cool happens.

I get to play soccer here almost everyday.  It is a lot of fun.  However here there are no cleats no headers and no slide tackles.  Even though this was to be expected it took a while to get used to the change and start playing well.

Thanks for keeping me up to date.  I have almost no idea what goes on beyond the MTC.
