hellooooo!!! how is everyone??? first of all, happy birthday to annie and mom!!!!!!!!! apparently mom is in some place I've never heard of.. classic. O and i got the most insane box ever from mom. hahaha mom, thank you. Its about, 40 pounds of junk food. no joke. haha i am officially well fed. my entire hall is very grateful for it. So everything is great! i got one more week! next Wednesday I'll be in cali !!! I'm soooo excited! ahhh its gonna be so awesome! man its been such a fast and good week. our progressive investigator is sooo good. one of em, we had our last visit with. and its our teacher. hahaha it was sooo funny. So since it was our last visit with "juanita" we wanted her to have a friend in the church so she would stay connected. hahaha so we brought another kid in our district as the "member." Haha it was classic. HA we totally suprised my teacher but then it went sooooo well. haha it was so awesome. He was a convert who told this whole made up story but was actually sooooo good. hahaha member work is crucial! haha well everything is awesome. Spanish is great, we read the book of Mormon tons everyday in spanish i love it. haha i think its more power5ful in spanish haha. Man the book of Mormon is so true its like a joke. It is the main tool in the conversion process. how cool is it that we can just pray to know if its true after reading it and receive an answer? amazing. This week we had some lessons that went sooo well. Like the spirit was completely directing it. Its amazing how important it is to listen to the spirit and just say what your told to.. it always works. But I'm still not very good at it, i have a LONG way to go. But one day!!! hopefully soon because i only have a week! haha anyway so yea sidney and jenn are here.. haha its soo funny. Jenn is in my study building haha...what are the chances? Its really funny seeing her, I try to make it as awkward as possible. haha which actually isnt that hard to do. hahaha but Sidney is soo great, i see her a ton because shes spanish speaking but shes not in my building. But shes awesome. She seems really happy. And Ian Blades got here.. how random, and I was hosting when he got here so i got to pick him up at the curb and give him a tour and stuff. haha it was awesome. So we got two new elders in our room this week. haha i talked to them in a british accent for like awhile and they thought i really was from england. Like the whole first day, they were a bit bummed when i told them i was from DC. haha their awesome though and one of them is a gymnyst so we do flips together and I'm getting better at hand stands!!! So an elder in my district got suuper sick this week so i spent a lot of time just hanging out in his room and studying while he slept. haha it actually wasn't bad, i think i like studying by myself wayyy more than class. HAha so my teacher leaves tomorrow, im sooo bummed i love her! its weird shes just like katherine and i just found out her first name is katrina! haha close! haha anyway. glad to hear everyone had fun skiing, and that jack didn't snowboard. I'm not really sure where anyone is actually. Its extremely confusing. You all were here or are coming here? haha i don't know. o btw i love all of you so much... but please don't come to the airport. haha thanks. so we went to the Temple today, it was sooo good. i love it! So we had some awesome firesides this week! soo good. remember the guy who spoke at priesthood session and told the story about the scorpion biting him? he came and spoke and it was soooo good! ahhh hes awesome. And we had another awesome one about tribulations in the mission. Some people told some stories about whats been hard for them and its nuts. People give so much to go on missions. I'm very lucky. A ton of missionaries were completely disowned from their fam cuz of it. nuts. and we sang army of Helaman and some of us stood up at the end and they made us sit down but it was awesome! anyway! out of time! love you!
love, elder foulger
