Lance - PLEASE answer my questions!

1. What do you eat?- I eat a lot of rice, chicken, roti, and just sandwhich bread haha. not a whole lot of variety here but I like it.


2. Do you walk everywhere? -yes we walk every where and when we don't we ride in something called a tapeir (tap ear)


3. What is your house like? our house is really big. it has 2 bathrooms, and 3 bedrooms, a big couch and table so it's really nice.


4. Who is the senior couple who you deal with? Elder and Sister Larsen are the couple that's over us. I like them a lot.


5. Do you ever get close to monkeys? ya monkeys are really sweet here. I've held one or two but a lot are scared of people and scream at you when you try to pet them


6. Do you ever see other wild animals? I don't see a lot. I've seen monkeys, parrots, and alligators. I mostly see dogs cats and cows and goats.


7. Has your camera come yet? nope still waiting on it. also I'm watching out for my sweet ties to come.



This week was awesome, we baptized 4 people. I did them all then confirmed 2 of them. It was a lot of fun. We did it at the beach and the water was really warm and nice. I would have so many good pics to show you all but first I need a camera. President Robison talked with me at zone conference which was 2 weeks ago, I think, and told me that I would be staying in Skeldon til I had been out 6 months. I'm pretty stoked for that. Me and Elder Sorber have been with the traveling assistants a lot and they are sweet. Last week I was with Elder Dayton who is just a stud. I would love serving with him. Anyway, I was showing him this basketball court by our house and these two big black dudes were playin ball. We challeged them and played them just in our missionary clothes. haha beat them bad. and they were pretty good, so it was really sweet.
We are teaching some cool families but no one really sweet. We baptized this lady named Ashmon who is like 24 and has a girl that's already 9 that we also baptized. She only has like 6 teeth and one of them is a gold one. She is really really weird. but she is funny.
Last Wednesday, we were out in the morning running and we came home at 7 and in front of our house there is an old car that just sits in front of our house but no one uses it. Inside we look and there is a little boy from a family we have been teaching that ran away from home a week earlier and had just been living on the streets for the past week. We called his dad and he came and got him. He probably gave him bad lashings. I guess that's a big problem here. Kids will run away for weeks and just live on the streets and thief people to eat.

Guess that's it for the week. I hope everything is good.
I love you all.
