Dad, did you catch General Sherman up fishin´? And how did the girls trip finish up? haha i have to comment on the pic you sent me, the gum wall was just hilarious! who knows what goes down on the girls trip (beignet and babaganoush??), but im sure its just a blast ;) ! You´re all such great sisters and moms, I love you all!
Well so this week was great. I can finally say that im excited to leave the offices. Did i really say that? thought i never would. Im gonna love being a normal missionary again! we´ll see where i go! I thinkin this time ill be outside of Merida, but who knows! But what im not excited about is leaving my area, here in Aeropuerto. It always seems to happen to me ha, but right when i have to leave, the work starts the roll again. We had a miracle this week, we have this sister and 2 kids that we are teaching that is prepared more than ever! We are taking them to a baptism today at 5 so they can see how it is and get excited for theirs. The kids names are Fernando(13) and Natalie (9)! haha i love it when there are names from my family members! It makes it easier to remember them ;) Go Nat! The sisters name is Cristina, and they are just awesome. Im excited to work with them. Also we visited a reference that i got like 3 months ago again, but this time they were home, and now were teaching Isabel (19) and Mary (21). Also we have Juan and his wife, who dont really make the move to go to church, but are great. Jonni keeps going to church, we visited him this week, and we may have found his need. We´re planning our class tomorrow in the 2nd hour of church around Joni and Cristina. It´ll be great
The offices are going good, and we got some fun activities comin up, including our barbeque with Pres and his wife at their house and our "How to mark and study the scriptures class, Part II" with President Salinas comin up, before i bounce and leave the office. Im slowly getting things packed up and organized. Got all my pictures and videos saved to my hard drive and DVDs so ill leave the offices with empty everything so i can fill up the cards with Year 2 pics and memories. Some big things that are going on is that we are going to be moving out of the offices! For me, it wont effect anything, just the 2 weeks i have left here. The Area General Authorities sent out a letter to all the missions in Mexico and now missionaries cant live in the offices. Its crazy how much things have changed these past 8 months. So we´re out house searching while we work out in our area. If you happen to know anyone with a house rental, let me know ;)
So what else? Well i found out from experience that i am elergic to Moxasillin ? (spelling?) . It wasnt on my papers that i have allergies to anything, so i got sick, we went to the hospital, they gave me moxasillin and i broke out with crazy hives for 4 days! (but it did cure me ok) hahaha it was a memory. im better know, but it was a scratch-myself-silly few days. and you dont wanna know how difficult it is to sleep in a hammack with hives! DONT MOVE! haha
Well i hear Fictionist is comin out with something soon! And i also heard that the 60 minute foot rub went spectacular, can i order one of those for next P-day? And also that the Beach Boys still got their groove, even after 50 years! FUN, FUN, FUN! Happy birthday to Sarah Spencer, Big H Connolly (who i havent met yet) and Dave Connolly these past few weeks! Happy Birthday to America too, go 4th of July! yes, we did celebrate it here, we ordered our 6 Dollar Burgers from Carls Jr. with some waffle fries and a Coke...oh wait we cant drink Coke in the mission... well with juice ;) . I remember last year when we watched the fireworks out in the parking lot of the MTC from the Stadium of Fire 2011, and here comes the repeat of the holidays in year 2! American Pride! thanks for the e-card. and Todd i got your letter here already, your such a stud bro! i wanna hear about your jew-fro dunkin´ basketballs this next season aight? Ill hit you up with the pen and pad later. also to all, i would recommend using the PO box Pouch service to send letters, they get here by Fedex every week, and its alot quicker and cheaper! Its Mexico Merida Mission, POB 30150, SLC, UT 84130-0150 POUCH .
Well i love you all, im outtie. Thanks for all your prayers and support! Later,
elder connolly
