F A M I L Y ,
how is everyone? we had quite the week, so i will try to tell you everything without sounding like a missionary who tries to impress people with his stories (: haha. let´s start with news.

angelita got baptized! crazy stuff. it was a little roller coaster. on thursday we went into her house to tell her what to bring to the baptism and we asked her how she was doing....she was like..."estoy bien, pero no me voy a bautizar sabado....". (GASP)....crazy stuff. satan was making her feel all nervous. so i told my comp in english, we will just listen to her and let her tell us how she feels and be polite but let her know that she is seriously ready to get baptized. it was an intense 45 minutes, but the last thing she said before the closing prayer was, "bueno...me voy a bautizar sabado. esta bien.". MM. relief filled the room and i could already fill the font being filled with the san luis water (: hahaha. crazy stuff.

consejo was super fun. being with the zone leaders was like being with a big group of fun, obedient, happy, hard working elders. it was the funnest hours of my mission. it was good to escape the district leader that has to get on people for being disobdient. it was nice to see president and just relax and also be serious about the success of the mission while people cared. good times.

i saw elder burns and actually we went out and worked for a little bit was was pretty fun. good missionary too.

this week we went to some waterfall things for pday....i hope you guys liked the photos. it was a hard climb but worth it. i got a little water trunky...i wanted to swim way bad. 17 months...i´m a dry kid.

i got your valentines day package!! it was sick! tell thanks to the mia maid president for the letter. haha. weird. anyways, i am going to enjoy all that ranch mix soon...and i will also dig the gravy soon. hahaha. anyways, so thanks for everything. i had a happy valentines day. some of the elders i think are jealous that i get spanish valentines from dad. you guys are the best. i love bilingual relationships. good job guys.

i hope the letters made up for some of the writing. i love you guys. oh yeah, i saw the new brandon flowers "im a mormon" video on mormon.org. amazing! i thought dad would like it!

love you guys,
elder jay valle
