This week was fun we didn't baptize but I almost got attacked by two dogs, one on one day, the other another day, but nothing happened.
The new house is cool, but it gets really hot at night, but that's okay because we have two fans that make the house feel really cool at night. The weather is always the same here in Coatza, but it sounds nice that you guys are able to enjoy a different climate every once in a while. I am glad that everyone is doing well at home.
Justin I sure am glad that your track meeting went well and I sure am excited that our going to be an SBO
Jax enjoy your game tonight and be sure to get a few home runs for me, and be sure to enjoy a little bit of fun.
Jace I sure hope that the football training with Unga is go well. I am glad that you were able to talk in sacrament and hope that it went well.
Well I sure am glad that Dad is doing well in work and that thing are starting to pick up, so where are you working now Dad?
So far I don't know anything about Mother's Day, but next week I will have more information for ya, I haven't spoken in sacrament but we are starting to have some more success in this area and we are hoping for some more baptisms next week, also this week, but they aren't sure. Sorry that there aren't any pictures for ya today but next week I will send some.
I was cool this week because as we were coming home on Saturday night a lady started talking to us, she is from South Jordan and her maiden name is Price, so maybe you guys can ask Bro. and Sis. Price if they have a son-in-law who is Mexican, because that would be cool if I met their daughter here in my area.
Well that's it for this week,
Sure do love you guys talk to ya next week.

Man does it get hot down here...
I am doing good and man does it get hot down here, but it's okay, they say the more a missionary works in the sun the better looking his wife will be...Wow, what am I thinking about, ha, ha, lol, don't worry that's the third thing on my mind-LOL!
And now to explain the pictures the first is of the baptism we had on Saturday, it was at the church, the second is of me today at the beach with my sand tower, cool huh. The third is of me with a really big fish that they sell for 40 pesos, and the last is of me in front of a sign that says...Here come the best, here come Elder Weaver :)
This week was pretty good, we are working and Zone Conference was fun, we learned a lot about the Holy Ghost and repentance, I have a list of books that I need to read for when I get home, Doctrine of Salvation 1-3 and the Miracle of Forgiveness. If you guys can get these books for me and keep them for when I get home I would appreciate it.
Life is fun is Coatza, we only baptized one person but we are hoping for three this week, we always teach in the persons home but if we can we teach in the chapel to feel the spirit stronger. we are in a middle class town.
So Dad got the kitchen looking better and it only took three swear words wow Dad you have grown a lot, I remember working in the basement and...well there was a lot more then three...and how is my room looking?
I hope that you didn't send a package Mom and only the letters like I asked because I have no room for all the stuff that you guys all send me and I don't need anything at the time being so I hope that you are still waiting on that package.
Jace, Justin, and Jax, Hi guys, hope that all is going well for you at the time and that you are all being obedient to Mom and Dad. Remember to read your scriptures and do your prayers, so that you won't be tempted over what you can bear. Love one another and be willing to help each other okay guys, I sure do love and miss you all but the time is passing by quickly. Be examples of who you believe okay...
Well my time is up, love ya guys and I am sorry that these are getting shorter, but nothing much happens anymore, it's a normal life.
Love you all

Kisses from Mexico!
I am sending three pictures, the first is of me with a kiss, and that's the closest I have ever been to a kiss on my mission, the other is of me kissing the kiss, something I can't do the girls because I am a missionary, the third is a bumper sticker that says "don't follow me, I am lost" pretty cool huh,

After General Conference
This weekend was fun but it's not the same like at home, for instance, there is no Easter Bunny here, and on Crucifixion Fridays people volunteer to be crucified in remembrance of Jesus Christ.
The first picture is of use taking our mini fridge out of the trunk of a car, the second is where we had lunch after the Saturday morning session of conference, and the third is of another car I have fallen in love with, (it didn't come through)
I was able to see the five sessions in English and I was with 7 other Americans and one Samoan. It was really cool, I learned a lot and my favorite talk was by Elder Holland from the Priesthood Session. (Ross says Elder Holland didn't speak in this session, maybe he meant the 2nd session, or confused him with someone else?) We watched conference at the stake center it was fun.
Yes we moved and the house is good, it just really gets hot at night but we have two fans working all the time. We are going to put hooks up so I can use my hammock.
Mom my stomach is fine, has been fine and always will be fine, so there is no need to worry. (Silly me, I thought he asked us to pray about his health and stomach ache, and he has been losing weight, I think I'm losing it, won't ask anymore)
The street name is Quevedo number 607
We have two baptism dates for the 17th of this month and more on the way, it's cool because we found a family of three and they are really excited to be baptized we just have to divorce the man with his first wife and then have him marry the woman he lives with at the moment, and they have a 13 year old boy who is really excited. Every Friday night we go to the chapel and play soccer with the youth and their friends who aren't members we talk to.
Jace, Justin, and Jax, I hope that you put a lot of attention to the talks during conference because they did a lot of talking about the family and missionary work, I am glad that you are all enjoying being young still, and hope that you will grow the way the Lord wants you to.
I am starting in Alma, so I hope that I am still with you guys in the Book of Mormon reading, well I sure do love you guys, I hurried and loaded a video of a guy making pizza hope you like it,
I will send another in a minute. Love ya
Elder Jordan Ross Weaver

Hi Dad I am glad to hear from ya,
Dad one thing I learned during conference was about the importance of family interaction, I am sorry I didn't want much to do with you, but I am going to try harder when I get home,
Love ya Dad,
Your son, Jordan
