So Bro. Hemming is the 2nd counselor...cool stuff man. He'll be good for it. That's great for him really. Tell him congrats for me. And as for the Young Men's President...I don't really remember who was in the young men's organization...but I'd say Bro. Beck. Yeah...we'll just say Bro. Beck.

Lets see....so this week we baptized 2 more. One is Pedro and has 18 years. He is a friend with Elder...that kid we baptized with his family like 2 weeks ago...and he wanted to get baptized with them...we just hadn't taught him enough when they got baptized. But this kid has had a strong desire to get baptized since the first time that Elder invited him to Church. Great kid.

And the other kid only is 8 years old...and we kind of lucked into this baptism. His name is Carlos and his grandparents are members. He lives with them because his parents live in the US. Friday we went and told the YW president about Pedro's baptism to tell the YW and she told us to go visit this family. When we got there the grandma was like...my grandson wants to get baptized. And it was easy because he has gone to primary his whole life. So we were like...how bout tomorrow?...the ZLs came did the interview and boom...everything good to go.

Fun stuff huh? Haha...God blessed us. Really because Pedro always wanted to get baptized and the kid was already prepared. Both were pretty much gold.

So yeah...that's about all I got. I'll try to do something interesting this week.

Oh yeah, we were playing UNO just a little bit ago. SO fun. And it brought back some memories. I miss UNO night.

Anyways...love you guys...and miss you
