Friday is his P-Day!!!

His mom waited, waited and waited and here the long awaited email was- early in the morning!!!

Here's his email:

sorry I haven't been able to email last week after arriving. I had found out that my p days are on Friday but they had counted Tuesday as my p day. my schedule has been pretty busy but i've been able to stay pretty relaxed even though my companion has been freaking out. btw my companion is the elder we met in the temple in my first endowment. he is very loud and likes to talk a lot while I have been very quiet. something cool I've found out is that the trees talk but you also want to avoid them because they will drop bombs. soy de lorax. there are many beautiful birds and palm trees (those are the trees that "talk"). the temp is about 60 to 70 degrees and i know that makes you jealous mom. I want to share a scripture that has kept me going and kept me so relaxed. 2 nephi 9:45, remember the lord and use him as your foundations and you can shake off anything. I have yet to find anyone who is going to the same mission as me other than my companion. every one who is in my district is going to Uruguay except me and my companion. my district are such awesome people and we get along pretty well. the new sleep schedule was pretty easy to get used to. the food is fairly good and we can eat as much as we want. doesn't mean i do though. learning Spanish has been a bit easier than I thought it would be but that's because we have the lord. Loved reading all the emails but dad you need to say a little more I want to read more from you. mom you are right Sundays are awesome it's like a breath of fresh air from all the work I had been doing. about being able to call home I don't know how often I would like to to that. probably only on special occasions like birthdays and holidays. I'll let you know ahead of time if I want to call on any other day. you'll have to remind me when everyone's birthdays are. I feel terrible for saying that I should already remember all your birthdays are. something else that is funny is my companion forgot so many things that we made a list. luckily he could find a lot of it at la tienda. sorry I have no pictures yet I will send you guys some next week. we're going to the temple today so  I can send you guys some pictures of that. oh and i also forgot to bring my keys for my suitcase so that worried me a little but I remembered I can just stick a pen between the zipper to open it so I could get to my clothes. I have been pretty careful so I don't think I will end up like the missionary in the Republica Dominicana. oh and mom I'm keeping my room clean and organized. I keep forgetting to put sunscreen on so I've got a bit of a sunburn. luckily i tan though. love you guys and I miss everyone. email you guys next week along with some pictures.
