ola minha familia, bacana. i hope everything is going well. this week was crazy, awsome and a bunch of other stuff. time is flying by like crazy, i canīt believe i have been here for one year, it feels like i got here yesterday, i feel like i havnīt done anything yet. i actually didnīt even remember the day that i completed one year until the day after. thanks for eating cookies for me, they looked really good. so what is everyone up to? i am doing the same old same old, teaching,preaching, finding, baptizing. this week we had one baptism. her name is Lais, she is 15 years old, the rest of her family was already baptized but she was traveling so she wasnīt baptized with them. she flipped a coin to see who would baptize her because she coulnīt decide and i won th toss so i was able to perform the baptism. i donīt have any pictures because my camera was stolen last week but i will send some with my comps camera. so what are the plans for thanksgiving, and Natal? how was halloween, you guys should send me some candy, i really miss american candy. oh last week we did a service project and we finished on saturday. we built two rooms onto a house of a member and on saturday we put on the roofing, it was funny, the roofing is like fiberglass, really thin and brittle and i was standing on a beam and i accidently put my weight on the roofing and it broke and i fell and landed on my head. just kidding i didnīt fall but it was pretty funny. oh funny story, this week i ate CRAP. it was actually pretty good. ha ha ha. here in the streets they sell a food, itīs like a grilled cheese sandwich and itīs called CRAP, itīs spelled CREPE but they pronounce it like CRAP, so the first time i heard someone say CREPE i started to laugh so hard. there was a lady selling it and she asked me if i wanted some CRAP, and i couldnīt help it i started laughing and i told her that i donīt eat CRAP and she oh but itīt really good with cheese and meat. i kept on laughing, i started to cry i was laughing so hard and she just kinda looked at me funny. afterwards i ate some CRAP and it was actually really good. well thats my life, i hope everything is going well, hope to hear from everyone soon.
