Everyone Chilllll



Ok here we go, I am indeed back yall. (Elder Lloyd...) I didn't realize that it has been almost a whole month since I last wrote my email so here yall go.


I honestly don't have much to say besides 1st BAPPY BABY. Yes that's right a baptism.  It  felt so good to actually have a baptism that I taught them the whole time. Unfortunately I wasn't the one who did the baptizing but it was so cool to see Jasmine get baptized and the members showed up and brought so much food it was actually so hype.  Awhile back the senior couple helped order her birth certificate so they could get married.  That happened last p-day.  I'm so happy for them.  But ya I guess thats the peak of what happened the past little while. 

Everyone always wants to know how the language is coming, Spanish is starting to pick up again. Definitely not fluent but I'm fine I get by. haha. 

I am defiantly gaining some weight though. One night I stepped on the scale and it said 175lbs and I was like dangggg boy I'm getting big. ( I left at around 150 lbs by the way) Good news is I've been hitting the gym so I don't get to chubby. Also I cook now which is good. I try to eat somewhat healthy but sometimes McDonalds  is just looking to good. But you can bet that I will be bulking this year lol. 

This transfer is flying by and I'm interested to see what happens because President didn't know that me and Elder Stillwell were in the same stake and he wasn't very happy about that so there is about a 1% chance that me and him stay together next transfer. 

Anyways I've been doing good, been trying to lock in every day so I can be the best missionary possible. I guess a little spiritual thought is to try and live in a way where you can always be intune with the spirit. In life there are so many distractions that steer us away from focusing on the Savior but I have come to find that as I constantly try to be in tune with the spirit everything flows much better.

I will try to write next week but no promises, also my pday will probably be on wednesday cuz we are going to the temple. Anyways if you want to write an email to me it would be much appreciated cuz I want to hear from yall. Love you and keep being awesome!!

Begin Black Out!

  Fun fact y'all, I'm still alive haha. Man I don't know where to start.  There is so much I could talk about. I don't want to write to long of an email so I will try to keep everything brief and not go into to much detail. Also I have my next pday in like 4 days so I can write more then I guess. Spanish Everyone always wants to know how the language is going so figured I would start with it. Spanish is coming along. I feel way  more comfortable about my Spanish after teaching a few lessons all by myself on exchanges. I put it in the simplest way possible, I can teach in Spanish but the every day conversation stuff is still coming along but it does feel like I'm starting to learn a lot more and faster which is good.  BOM! Yes sir, I finished Book Of Mormon for the first time ever front to back. Ya its a little sad but hey, I was soooo hyped to finally finished it. It felt sooo good and you can hear it from me here first, that book is TRUE! So happy I finished it...

  Alright so we indeed got transferred. Actually we got whitewashed without getting a call so that was different.  but I'm grateful to be here. I was really sad to leave Kent but I think this place might be better. Im innnnn... Sammamish Valley / Bothell. Ya... no but fr we got blessed up. We live in such a nice apartment and I  got a w companion. We also live with 3 other spanish Elders who are all so chill so that makes it fun. We play catan every night so far. There's also a pool table down the hall so we played some pool today. I went 4-0 heck ya Spanish  I'm going to be honest I hardly used any Spanish last transfer in Kent. Things were just slow and we weren't finding to many people. But  we cooking here. My Spanish is actually so much better and I usually feel confident in conversations and talking. I still need to learn subjunctive tho... they don't tell you about that in the mtc... but it's chill we will learn aventually. Clean Slate... So basically me ...

Almost Transfers

Image
Ya so apparently this transfer is already over and I feel like I will be staying the same area. We will see what happens though. This week was lowkey mad fun and some crazy things happened but I don't wanna right a super long email so we will see what makes it in.  Overall this transfer was fun but honestly could have been a lot better work wise. Some days definitely felt like we could have done more but thats something  I can work on next transfer. Also my boy Elder Jeffs will probably get transfered out so thats sad but it'll be alright. Hopefully he stays. Language... To be honest I don't feel like my language improved to much this transfer but its all good I can still hold conversations and get around without feeling dumb. It'll get better though trust.  Gave two blessings yesterday which was cool. Yesterday was stake conference which was really cool and interesting. Some very interesting people spoke but it all ended up turning out ok. It was low key a spiritual...
