I'M HOME!!!

well as you can tell from the title, i have just returned from my great mission in chile, it was a great experience, i was able to travel to very many different places and learn to speak spanish which i know will help me in the long run of life.

here are some of the places i was in starting with caupolican, then futrono, followed by purranque, then comes valdivia, then i headed to pangupulli, then i finished my mission in the small islan of calbuco. so as you can see by the list, i got to enjoy many great and wonderfull memories.

i will ever be so greatfull for my companions that also served this great mission with me, in total i had 13 companion during my two year, they are the following, Elder fuentes, hernandez, lainez, serradel, anderson, martinez, bazan, castelo, darrington, rosas, welling, osborn, and finally elmer. they were great and amazing people and they came from all over, like argentina, ecuador, chile, bolivia, and the united states, so i got to experience different cultures and people.

i'm happy for the choice i made to serve, i know it will and has impacted my life.

Disneyland

This last weekend i got to go to Disneyland with my dad for our last little get away before i leave for my mission and it was a blast! the hotel we stayed in was huge and our room had three seprate rooms plus a bathroom and a washing area, it was the nicest hotel i've ever stayed in. We went to Disneyland for three days and had a great time, we where able to ride all the rides with hardly a line and we got some really good pics and we ate extreamly well. On our last day we walked through the gate and was selected to do an activity in front of the crowd and it was funny. i really enjoyed the time i got to spend with my dad just me and him for a weekend, it's not every day we get to do that and i'm going to miss it.

Temple

Today i was able to go through the temple and if you've been through you know how spiritual it is and how much at peace you feel when your there. I was so happy and i have never felt better in my life! it was so great. I was able to have my dad, sister, and my brother and his wife join me in this wonderful experience. i was extreamly grateful they could be there to support me in my decision. I can't wait till i can get married there, just to know that i'll have my family forever and all eternity. I'm definitely planning on going a couple of more times before i leave for my mission.

My Mission

Hey everybody well if you know me well enough you know that i have received my mission call and i'm going to Osorno, Chile and i leave on June 11th so i got a month left. I'm really excited but I'm also REALLY nervous! I've started to pack and it is really awkward cuz your sitting there thinking wow i'm really leaving, what am i supposed to do with my last month? I can't get a girlfriend, i can't get a job, i can't do anything except prepare my self for the next two years, which i guess isn't a bad thing.
