Hey guys!
Not a whole lot to report here. Conference was super duper. In between sessions on Sunday we held the baptism of nine year old Anahí Llano. It was a really good experience and the Spirit was strongly present just as in every baptism. On Saturday we made breakfast at their house with Elders Thueson and Vergara and afterwards Thueson did the baptismal interview. We made french toast and it was delicious. While Elder Thueson and I were cooking he turned the bread over in his pan and it was a little black. He looked at me and said man I don't know how my mom does it but every time she makes french toast, it looks perfect! I said yeah mine too. I said moms are just awesome like that. They really liked the french toast. It was something new to them and it was funny watching them try to figure out how its eaten. I made Maxfield's buttermilk syrup recipe and Thueson made his mom's vanilla syrup. It was a good time. Its interesting because Anahí has a 13 year old cousin that lives in El Jagüel named Aaron that I knew. He is a really good kid. Really polite with a funny sense of humor. Aaron lives with his dad and we did most of Anahí's teaching in the house of Aaron's mom with his sister present. Anahí's mother doesn't go to church but she goes with her grandma and her aunt Analía- Aaron's mom. Whenever we go over there Analía asks me to tell her about Aaron. She doesn't get to see him very much. They're probably my favorite family to visit here in La Florida. Analía kind of reminds me of my own mom.
This is the last P-Day of the transfer. Next week I may have a new companion, but I doubt I'll go to a different area. We'll see what happens. I love you guys lots and I'll be talking to you in about a month! Yeah!! Thanks for your support.
Love, Matt
