Just another week in Florida.

This week was another slow one for us. Yesterday was a pretty good day though. There was a baptism of an 8 year old. The family is one of the coolest families I've met out here.

Side note: It just started to rain really super hard outside. Cool. But it will probably be over in about 15-20 minutes. That's usually how these rainstorms work. But they can be fun while they last.

Back. The baptism was really cool. They have a 17 or 18 year old that doesn't come to church very often that came to the baptism. I only hope that he may have gotten something out of it.

Then after church we went to another members, the Mullins, house for lunch. It was probably the most fun lunch that I've ever had. We talked about everything from Cache Valley cheese to Obama to slaughtering animals to elphants sitting on people. It was quite interesting. But we had a blast. We of course left on a good note with a nice thought on prayer.

Then we went to the MacQuarry's house. They are the family that had the baptism. We had some more food. Just small sandwiches and such. But it was really fun to visit with them. Brother MacQuarry has a Yamaha V-star. Really pretty bike. He showed it to us and I just drooled a bit. But I'm ok now.

We also found out that Brother Brightly, a member of the Bishopric here, is now able to adopt 2 of his foster kids and they both want to be baptized before they move out to Wyoming in June. It was really exciting news for them. We are going to begin teaching them on Tuesday. We are really excited about that.

Now, about today. We were planning on going to play some sand volleyball today and some basketball as well, but we woke up to it being very wet outside and kind of sprinkling. So now we are not quite sure as to what we are going to do. But it is no longer pouring outside. Like I said earlier, it only lasted about 25 minutes. So maybe it will dry up enough that we might be able to at least play some basketball. We'll see.

As some of you may know, today is my 11 month mark!! It is crazy to think that I have been out here for that long already. Time is really flying by out here. It's nuts. But I am loving it.

And as maybe a few more of you may know, my birthday is this upcoming Sunday! I am going to be 20! Wierd! No longer a teenager! That's right, mother, you only have one more of those left. It's crazy. But it must happen I guess.

I think that is all that I have to update on for this week. I hope all is well for everyone back there.
