nothing very exciting happened this week. i really wish i could share a cool story or something. we almost got a baptismal date. but he didn't want to because his wife isn't interested very much, and he doesn't want to do it alone. afterward we had a really good chat with her and she is going to cook us dinner and going to buy us those masks that the Mexican wrestlers wear on nacho libre. also another funny moment is i was talking with elder sonntag( and yes he is related to them. he is his uncle and i think it was temple pres. but not sure) we were talking about the phrase me cayo bien. which means he/she fell good with me. or we hit it off kind of thing. when you meet someone its like saying ya he is cool we got along. and so i switched the phrase to i fell good with him/her. le cai bien. and right when i said that i stepped i little bit off of the sidewalk and fell right into a garden. there were no flowers or anything like that but i just totally fell belly first. luckily i had an old rain coat on so i didn't get the dirt on my suit. that was pretty funny.

that same night we were wondering where to go and who to visit because i didn't feel good about our plan A and elder sonntag didn't feel good about our plan B. so we prayed on the street to know what to do. so we went to Urbano and Juanna. (some investigator that are soooo hard to find) and they were there. we had a really nice lesson with them about the plan of salvation and she believed it was true. it was really cool.. it was sweet... and at the same time kind of annoying because they say they believe in the things we teach are true but they don't really understand our purpose. for example, some people say that they know Joseph Smith was a true prophet but they don't understand why the authority is important... but we have been making a big improvements with using illustrations and hands on activities. so its getting A LOT better though... on another note.. to keep it short.. the quantity of finding/teaching has gone down. but the quality is getting much better(for investigators) hopefully we can get a good balence of both.

i am doing really good. it's good that you told me about the coat because i was looking to buy one today. so that's good.....IV BEEN OUT FOR ALMOST 7 MONTHS.. SO CRAZY. i cant even believe it.
