Listen to Conference

thats way awesome about the weather, its really startin to warm up
here too, it was like 82 or something like that yesterday. i think the
weather really does effect your attitude ha cuz when its sunny usually
people are happy and it helps. idk how the kids wouldnt want to be
outside doing stuff even if it is work, its 70 degrees.

im glad jose has been comin out, i was really worried i wont lie... tell Bishop thanks for
worryin about me, i am doin alright but definately heart broken. jose
is my brother and it hurts that way... i did get joses email and i am
gonna write a letter and email it to you and have you give it to him.

im so happy that you are still going to the temple, idk i think that
if i didnt do anything else on my mission, which i know isnt true cuz
i have helped lots of people, im happy that i have helped you guys get
into that habit and hopefully helped some other people there.

i love karter and sam they are 2 awesome guys i miss sam, next time you see him
let him know that he is the man and same with karter.

thank you for sharing that experience with me, i needed it. we go to
the temple on wednesday at 7 am and for us that means we gotta wake up
early but its so worth it cuz its true, we really can be "healed" in
the temple. i know that there has been times here and i have felt
terrible and we go to the temple and its amazing the change in spirit.
we can over come all, the savior said "fear not for i have overcome
the world" we can really do that and temple attendance helps.

the week was way good! we had some fun expierneces and some funny
ones. so a funny one, we were reading in the book of mormon and we
were in alma 34 verse 38 and elder barfuss was reading and in spanish
it says "y que vivieseis cada día en dacción de gracias por las muchas
misericordias y bendiciones que él confiere sobre vosotros" so in
english its like "so that you live in thanksgiving for the many
mercies and blessings that he bestows upon you" well instead of saying
muchas he said muchachas and the he skipped misericordias and
continued on so it translated to "that you live in thanksgiving for
the women,or girls, and blessings that he bestows upon you." i almost
died laughing inside it was super funny,at least to me.anyway other
than that elder barfuss is great he is goin strong and is way awesome.
some cool stuff happened lastnight, we set a baptismal date with a kid
named josue, its for the 21st so i am super stoked!!! that happened
last night and i am super happy! we will watch confrence at the stake
center this year. i am super excited for it too, i love confrence! we
learn so much and i cant wait what the main topic is for this one. i
hope that you all listen and take notes, but as you take notes dont
try and write everything just the small impressions that you get and
you will all lear alot. im almost out of time and i gotta write jose a
quick letter that i want you to print and give to him. i love you all,
thank you soooooooo much for all that you do for me and for your
support!

love

Training a Greenie!

haha good old family dentist appointments poor stewart. thats good that the snow is gone though. just be happy that brody doesnt eat mexican candy or he wouldnt have teeth ha.

i cannot believe that bridger is 14 that is super weird... tell him happy birthday for me a little late ha. livvy will be 10, that is rediculous also. scary stuff, everyone is growing up. its crazy how fast time goes, does anyone else feel like it is flying cuz thats how it is for me.
yeah i dont really know much about mitt romney or anything that is happening, we dont hear too much. thats way cool though that you got to go see that. there was a huge debate here on feb 20th or something like that. i would be really interested in what it would do to the church also, i can see alot of people becoming interested but also alot of people going farther away, cuz theres lots of people that believe that we shouldnt be part of government or work for them cuz God doesnt support gov and this that and the other and they are just crazy but i hope he wins also.

i cant wait to hear people sing and what not when i get home! i miss going to concerts and watching and listening. oh speaking of karter i need to write him, there are so many people that i need to write i just always feel like i ddontt have time and it goes to fast. tell him i didnt forget about him. im glad that all the other guys are doin well, i always put their names in the temple when i go and i prayed for bub lots lately.

so lets talk about transfer news. so on saturday night we were visiting some people and it was about 645 and normally if you are gonna train you get a call around 4 or 5 and if your gonna be a DL or ZL they call around 6 ish and so we are pullin in to a hhouse and all of a sudden the phone rings and i look at it and it says mission office so i was thinkin ok well its for elder paschoalini, he is gonna go be a DL somewhere cuz i just became a DL so i wont go ZL and well President talked to me for a second and then he gave us the news. elder paschoalini is leaving and i will be training a new missionary... i am for sure nervous and scared but it will definately be an interesting 2 transfers cuz thats usually how long you stay with your trainer now. im super excited but i will be DL still and i will also have to teach the elder all sorts of things. it was definately a curve ball for me.i figured i would just stay a DL.

as for the work its goin ok, there is lots of people to teach but not so many that want to progress. most people are pretty lazy ha. physically and spiritually. spiritually good, i feel like i grow each day sometimes i cant see the actual thing that changed but i can just feel a difference if that makes any sense at all.

andrew coming home CRAZY, maybe he will go to utah state and he can room with me. i will definately keep petersons in my prayers. anyways i have no more time but i want you to know that i love you all and that i am excited to get your letters.

love taylor
