Hi mom
I know that you are there in the office waiting for me, but I found out we aren't supposed to chat with our families on-line. Sorry, I always liked talking with you but it's against the rules...so this is going to be a long letter.
We didn't go paintballing today, we just stayed home and cleaned and wrote letters, I wrote you all a letter and sent some pictures with it too. You will have to let me know when you get it. Last time I left because my hour was up, I thought I sent you a letter saying I was leaving but you must not have gotten it. I also wrote a letter for Grandma Pat, and sent her a picture too.
This week has been a good week, my teaching is better and I am learning the language. The baptisms this week were good except I had to baptize one hermana twice because I didn't get her name right and I kept forgetting one word in the prayer, I had to say it 5 different times until I got it right. Yesterday we gave two blessings to a baby and a hermana with a bad headache. It was cool even though I didn't know what to say for the anointing of the oil in Spanish.
Friday we ate at one hermanas house and she was mad at me for not telling her that I don't eat the pork down here because it gives me diarrhea, so she made me eat baby food, cream of carrots to be exact, it wasn't half bad, and I got some pictures of it.
Last night we were offered some beer from a family who we had asked if they would like to hear a message, they said yes and we went up to the house and there was a box of beer, and two guys are holding bottles in their hands, and they point to the box and ask if we wanted any. We said no and asked if we could come back another time when they were sober, they said yes, but I doubt they knew what they were saying yes to. We got a good laugh from being offered beer.
You have to be careful of the dogs around here, some are good but then some, if they can will sneak up on you and get ya, luckily we watch all the dogs because if they know that you are watching them they won't come near ya.
Dad, I am really excited for ya, bein hecho on the "Crash Crits" How is work coming along, whats the word on Park City, how is Jacer working for ya, does he feel like you yell at him too, or does he know that you need to be heard above the noise, haha, love ya Dad
Jax, Hey buddy how are you doing? Great on getting Brian Johnson's autograph, I can't believe how big you must be, size 7 mens for shoes, my goodness you'll be bigger than me when I get back. Is it nice to be out of school and helping mom clean the house? HaHa Love ya, goofy.
Justin, Lucky, mom wouldn't let me keep my cast, but I didn't have a famous football player sign mine either, so I guess it's fair. I am excited that you will be able to do 7 on 7 with Bonneville, be safe and don't get hurt, show them how a Weaver plays football and make Mom and Dad proud. Love ya and HIT THEM HARD!!!!
Jace, How is it driving? Is it as much fun as you thought it would be, and how about work what does Dad have you do, probably all of the same stuff that I did except driving alone to get lunch or tools huh, bud. Prepare for high school and be careful around girls, show them all what you got and be the best that you can be, (the teachers and coaches, not the girls)love you and be smart.
Hi Mom, love you and hope that the little boys are behaving themselves for you, can you send me Landon's address and how is Jeff doing? How is Jericho? How are you doing on your bike rides, do you ride a lot with Dad? Well here is the weekly report, sorry we can't chat anymore. Love you and have you all in my prayers.
Talk to you next week,
Your oldest Stripling Warrior, Elder Jordan Ross Weaver
Mom's note-makes me sad that we cannot chat anymore, but grateful for the times we did! He sounds so grown up-giving advice to his brothers! Just a note-Ross was in "Cash Crits" not "Crash" :) Can't wait for his letter with pictures-yea!
