Hi

Yeah so i don't have that much to write about.  Things are going good you all know that i am training ummmmm.....yeah i don't know haha.  Last week turned out not being that great. It was good but we have about 7 or 8 rendez-vous fall through and almost every number we recieved was a bad one so that was kinda of really annoying but it is ok.  Also patrick our baptism fell through.  He said that he is "to busy" and that he is "to stressed" to that I say that is "TO BAD!" He was actually extremely difficult and i am just praying that he comes around and realizes that this is more than just an event. Also we got dropped by one of our families because the father of the family told the mother that she couldn't let us teach any more.  So yeah that was difficult also.  Honestly we are facing a lot of adversity.  Not to much but definately some.  I want my blue to come in with such an awesome work load and have an expercience like i did in his blueville.  So yeah that is about it for opposition, well "big" opposition.

I am so stoked for my blue i can't even explain.  I know there are at least two frenchies but there is a tahaittian, new zelander, and a couple from south america, and only one american.  I don't know who it is yet but i am excited to find out that is for sure!!!!  It is going to be such a blast.  Also it is comforting knowing that i will be here at least until January.  I know i will be here for all the holidays and everything like that so there wont be any confusion of if i'll move or not.  So yeah i am excited and i hope that i can be a good trainer and district leader.  I am nervous.  Fun stuff!Also yesterday i got an awesome phone call from an unexpected person!  Haha I was at a members house and the phone rang and Elder Wood answered it and then passed it to me and said i think it is someone french.  I was confused but then i answered it and this person then said some inside jokes and stuff and i then realized that it was Lucas and Rachel!!!!! LOL they called me! Lol so they were super excited i was so happy to hear from them! So they are all like "well when we come to the states i think that we are gonna need 3 buddy passes if you could do that." I was like why would you and rachel need to have 3.....omg.......Lucas tell me if it's what i...... Omg i don't want to assume here this could be touchy.....!!!!....Tell rachel to tell me why! HAHA....So then she said I'm PREGNANT!!!! HA I was so Happy for them and Lucas was so proud!!! Ha it was such a good little phone call and it was definately the highlight of the week next to hearing I was training! They were so happy and it meant so much to me that they wanted to call and tell me personally! Ha Lucas was all "you are gonna be an uncle you know?!" i hope you can change diapers!" Ha It was so good and the best part is that she will be due in July!  Right before i go home!  So i think either we'll see them right before or hopefully right after she has the baby!  How fun?! I was so stoked! Well anyway so i thin that is about it that happened this week.  I will have lots of pictures and news for you next week! Also thank you for the package.  Me and my companion loved it.  Thank you so much for everything you do for me and all the love you show me.


Avec Tout Amour,
