well whats up everyone!


this week went by great. after i wrote you all last week we made brownies for a family. i about cried they were so good. i forgot about the simplicities of life like brownies.

we found a lot of really good people this week and one of them decided to get baptised last night. she has to wait a couple months because she doesnt have anyone in her house to go to the church to encourage her and stuff so there is a rule about that. but dont worry, we met her mom and we are going to baptize he to i decided. then we can baptize them in 3 weeks!

i think i already told you but im going to stay with my comp for another transfer so we are excited. we want to finish a lot of things before i go.

man it is weird to think that you all exist and stuff up there in gringolandia. its already been so long it almost just seems so fake. its messed up but chill.

dang so everyone started school and everything! how is it going to for you katie and kev? is kevin still going to thomas edison or to south cache now. i think that katie is a senor now. that is just messed up......hey so how is my car and cell phone doing? you can actually keep my cell phone katie. im getting a iphone 4 when i get home. i heard that they are so sick! only.............15 months! hahaha tahts a lot but its cool.

well i am doing really good. i really appreciate all of your prayers and support. i hope that you are all doing great and you are getting a butt load of blessings because i am. i love you. big squeeze. welp................see ya later!

Glad you all had a great time at the Brimhall reunion!

man another fast week! i dont know if i like it or not....but it is what it is right?

Dad thanks so much for sending the brimhall reunion video of all my family saying Hi to me.  it was so awesome to see everyone and hear them say hi.  glad to meet heaths girlfriend. they look very happy. glad to see all my cousins, aunts, uncles, and especially grandma goodman. i sure enjoyed hearing grandmas testimony that she gave on sunday. i have such a wonderful family. i enjoy teaching people here about how families can be together forever.  i love you all so very much!

things were pretty sweet this week. we baptised two peole on sat. hahaha i think i wrote you all about a couple months ago how i was in the water with this girl and she got all freaked out and in the end didnt get baptised and a bunch of stuff.....well she got baptized on sat! finally. he dad did it. and it took 3 times before she would go under the water. she wouldnt let him! all well it happened finally haha.

oh ya ha so after i finished my letter last week we went home and had to stay in the house because my companion was throwing up and stuff and so he went to bed really early. so i started to read the book of mormon and after an hour or so i took a break and started cleaning the house and stuff. well anyway i have this plastic thing that holds my bar of soap for the shower and i wanted to put wholes in it so that the water would leak out and stuff instead of just sit in there and ruin my bar of soap.......so i had my knife and..........i had the plastic thing in my hand and with my other hand i was drilling and it slipped and i stabbed myselft......hahahahha ya i know i am an idiot. it went in my hand like an inch and was bleeding all over the place. it was awesome! well my comp was way sick and couldnt get out of bed so i called a bunch or people and no one would answer for like 15 min! i thought i was going to die! i guess it wouldnt be so bad i would go straight to heaven i guess....but finally i got a hold of my zone leader and we went to the hospital. after and hour and a half they finally called my name. and on top of that they put two stitches in becuase it wasnt wide just deep( and the stitches fell out after 3 days) and they charged me 110 bucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i think it is because i have a rich gringo face and they took advantage of me. i dont know but it is retarded. the medical system in chile is soooooo good! if they charged me that much for 2 stitches im just glad i didnt cut off my hand! probably like 5000000092 dollars or something. but its chill i love chile still.

we have transfers this week and i have been asking my pres to let me stay here for another transfer and we are both staying! actually something really cool happened. Liliana ( the lady i always talk about) actually fasted that we would stay. its because we are finally getting in with her sons and are teaching them. man i love that family.
oh ya i hope you liked the pig pictures i sent! sorry if they were too graphic.....it was a crazy experience thats for sure. i know dad only put one up on my blog...which was a good shot of me showing the guts of the pig.
well i love you all so much. i hope things are going great for you all. things are great here. be good now and i will let you know whats up next week!

hahahahah this little kid ripped open a bag of cement and was playing in it while i was talking to his mom Liliana. oh man it was so funny we laughed our heads off.

Have fun at the Brimhall family reunion!

well i loved all of your letters a ton! i had 22. ya it was a lot and i read them all but i wont be able to reply to them all but i will try to include everything!

now i understand that my father is going to be reading this at the brimhall reunion. so dont worry i will try to make this as juicy as a can for you all. i miss you all and i will see you in the 2012 reunion and ill be with a babe of course dont worry.

well to start things off i need to get something off my chest......i broke a commandment. i killed something. i killed a giant pig!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a lady took a ton of pics for me and ill send them to ya. sorry if you dont like (dad you can take some out if you want.) man it was such a crazy experience. first we went and picked the one that we were gonna kill. dont worry tho, we taught him repentance and we also baptised him. well first of all we had to lift him up and this table thing and i had to pin him down and the beast was squirmin like crazy and screamin and all it was freakin awesome. well my bishop was the one that killed it but i was right there to see all of it. it was pretty sad to kill it but i got over it i guess. man that sounds bad....after we killed him (with a knife fast in the heart) we had to put him into this huge barrel filled with boiling water to be able to take off all the hair and crap(litteraly) the whole experience reminded me of something that uncle Bert would do with channing and seth. well after we got done pulling off all the hair we had to shave it with face shavers and all. after that we got to the fun part. we opened up the sucker. well before that we had to cut off his goods i guess you could say and then we opened him up. the bishop started and once he started the smell just spilled out and i about lost it. but after i got used to it. i took out all the guts and stuff and i opened up his rib cage and put in a little tea cup to take out all the blood. i was covered. well long story short the whole thing was awesome. tonight we are going to have a BBQ and family night with some people and guess what we are going to eat....yep cow.

chile is so awesome i love it here. my area is huge and we walk a ton. i asked for some bikes and my mission pres said no because they will get stolen....so i guess not. we are having a lot of baptisms here. the ward that i am in has a ton of really good people that are helpin us. right we kinda hit a stump of finding people that want to progress so we would really appreciate your prayers.

man i can just picture you all there right now sitting around all together. ill try to take advantage of this then. grandma goodman, man i miss be able to talk to you and hear your voice. i love you so much grandma. thank you so much for all you have done for me and for always buying me treats as a little kid. you have always been such a hard worker and i really noticed that from you. and all those sunday nights that we were able to go to your house and just chat. dont worry we´ll be doing that again after i finish with the brown people down here. i love you so much grandma. take care.

man i remember being at the ranch with all the cousins. we did so much stupid stuff. hahahaha i dont know if i should share this but all well. what happened was that we were being just us stupid kids and we decided it would be funny to pee in a yellow gatorade bottle. so we did it! well that wasnt enough for us. we opened it up a little so the cap was just barely on and we started throwing rocks at it just it would explode and stuff. well it wasnt workin so channing goodman went and got this huge rock i mean a big ol one and said "you need a professional!" well anyway when he threw it down it back fired on him. he got covered with all the contents that was inside the bottle. oh man it was so funny we left running for the shower. man i hope he is there listening to this. also i remember all the otter pops we ate. i remember that someone got baptised there. that would be pretty tight. the rope swing!!!!!!!!!!! man i hope it is still there. so many good things. but the best is the white fence at the entrance. it just brings all the memories back. i wont lie i cant remember my mom too much. it drives me crazy but being here in chile and being able to help these people has been able to help me. i love being here. i know that what i am doing changes lives. i have seen it with my own eyes and experiences. i am so grateful that i was born into the true church that jesus formed. i never really even noticed before how much confusing there is in the world. so many people are lost and are looking for the truth but just dont find it. thats why there are missionaries. thats why tanner, michael, amber and i are missionaries right now. our family is freakin huge and we have put a ton of missionaries out already and for you all that havent gone get out there. it is the number one best thing you will do.

i love you all so much. thank you all for your support and hope you enjoy your time together. take care and behave yourselves dangit.
