Sounds like Grandma and Grandpa had a great trip. I sure do want to go there someday, it´s a definate goal of mine. I´d sure love to hear about their trip which I´m sure I will. I can´t believe that Christmas is coming up so soon. It doesn´t seem long ago that I was sitting on the floor in my Trapiche pench talking to you all on the phone after all of the crazy phone card issues. Thankfully I´ll be in the offices and I´ll be able to use the vonage phone here at the offices which is an 801 number. The only issue is that I´ll be splitting that phone with 5 other missionaries, trying to find enough time for the amount of time we usually talk for might be hard unless you decide to buy a card and call the regular office line. We´ll work out those details whenever you want to, we have about a month still. You´ll have to ask grandma and grandpa what the new security is like in the airports. Someone told us that they are getting really frisky now after some terrorist scare they had. I´d like to know seeing as how I´m going to come home sometime haha.
The birthday package was great! I ended up only paying 30 pesos in fees. (its all about what you declare on the outside, and hiding the rest of it) Scott and Mel know me alllllll too well, couldn´t have been any better seriously! The socks were great, as were the little candies. I think the best was the memory stick though! I´m thinking that maybe you´d like it if i sent that back with all of my pictures on them? Let me know on that one. I think ive sent cards back home before..... tell me which folders i´ve already sent. I have folders up to this point catagorized by my areas. MTC, Gerogia pictures I believe I sent all home because i don´t have any of those files with me here. Then I have folders titled 1.Trapiche 2.Alvear 3.Tunuyan 4.Cordon 5.San Juan and 6.Offices. I can try and send back as many files as possible and maybe you could work on putting something together cool. I´ve always said the first thing I´d grab in a fire would be my scrapbooks. Sure would be cool to have a photo album of my mission. I know thats quite a bit to scrapbook all professionally so just an album would even do. Priceless treasures. Just a way to remember everything ya know. I´m so pumped for Carter!!!! He´s such a stud, good for him. He might not get a ton of playing time but that´ll be such a priceless experience for him. I´m proud he worked hard, and then saw the result.
It´s so great that PJ is going to go on a mission. I´m so proud of him, i thought i´d never see that day come to be honest. You´ll have to get someone to tell him somehow that I´m really happy for him. Anyways, i should probably go. We´re making a movie for the mission to see at the Christmas party. It´s going to be really funny. Let me know about that pictures thing. A big request for the package is that you send A BUNCH of stuff to make SMORES. There is nothing here even close to marshmellows or hersheys chocolate, or graham crackers. We were thinking for Christmas we´d make SMORES. Elder Frischknecht´s family sent us a box full of smores stuff when we were together and it lasted us two a couple of smore nights. We have 6 misionaries it might have to be a full box of stuff to get us Christmas night eating smores. Just a thought, would be cool! Thanks so much, love you all tons!
