How many minutes does it take to make a cup of noodles...?

cause thats how many weeks i have left too. =) haha!

So this week was pretty much nuts... we had a super dramatic thing happen in the mission. sadly this week we had a missionary go home from his mission early. which left his companion without a companion. so the Companionless, Elder De oliveira has to come stay at our house and now the other companionship in our house is now a trio. well we also had an emergency transfer all of the sudden and one of the elders in the was taken to Sergipe. and we got a new guy. so our house has dramatically changed and is really weird. We now have a companionless missionary that just stays at our house and goes to his area when the member from his area comes to get him. we have two brand new DL´s who´ve never been any type of leadership position on there missions before so they are both being baptized by fire in this experience. A trainee that will have his training finished by the "new DL" and then me.... the dying missionary... haha! so all in all we have 5 people in our house. all of which are in really unique positions. haha! 

Well carson and all you guys have made it super clear to the fact that utah is now cold.... it hurt my soul a little bit looking at the snow and the blizzard video that carson sent me... yep i´m going to be wrapped up in about 5 blankets sitting over the vent when i get home for about 5 ours a day. dont forget a coat for me. haha!

also this week in realation to the work we were able to find a rapaz that has already gone to the church a ton but he just needed to resolve a couple things before his baptism. we were able to talk to him this week and he agreed to be baptized this saturday. this was definatly a tender mercy present from god. =) we are super excited for him and will be trying to get the ward involved with his baptism. 
well on this thursday i believe you can start counting down on all your fingers and toes how many days i have left before i´ll be hugging you guys. dont get to trunky on me family. =) haha! talk to you next week! love you all!
