i have to giv ethe turtle away because we cant have pets, and i am learnig to cook some real mexican food, its really good, and i am starting to get used to the spicy stuff, kills my stomach later but my mouth loves it.

I have decided to leave this in Jordan's typing (spelling and all) It's fun to translate the English/ Spanish typing on a Spanish keyboard. Good luck with the translations:)
So glad that he has had some baptisms, prayers have been answered and hearts softened!

  1. Hola Elder Weaver!
    I stumbled upon your blog in searching for topics on Veracruz. We are a member family living in barrio Cardel. I pray you are blessed while serving here, and that some day we have the opportunity to meet you - perhaps you will serve in our little barrio.
