New Cancun mission president and wife - President Kirkham I'm not really that tall. I'm standing on a step. |
So between having our second Book of Mormon play and my
Birthday; this week has been pretty sweet! Our play about Nephi and the
Brass Plates went really well for the little time we had to practice (a
hour before) ha and of course all of the investigators and members who
came said they loved it. We didn't end up having our baptism with Claudia
this week because we couldn't get her married in time before she leaves on
vacation tomorrow for a month. BUMMER! We did all we could and she is more than ready, but I guess it just wasn't God's will.
Our district |
In brighter news, an awesome member family and all of the elders
from my ward threw me the best birthday fiesta last night. We watched a
recording of the play, they sang me Mexican birthday songs, let me wear
the birthday sombrero, got me 2 CAKES with my name on them!, and did a
Mexican tradition where they told me to take a big bite of the cake and
then they shoved my face into it! Haha. I think I'm going to steal that
tradition because it's awesome. Long story short, it was a day to remember
for sure.
SHOUT OUTS for the tons of awesome people who sent
be birthday emails! That means YOU: Mom, dad, Travis, Aaron, Aunt Mel,
Aunt Lyn, SARAH, Rose, Maren, Tommy, and my missionary buddies Elders
Mitch and Landon! And a SPECIAL MEGA AWESOME SHOUTOUT for my mom, Grandma Due, and The Fultons (Aunt Jill, Sam, and Tommy) for my birthday packages! I have
enough candy and sugar for the whole village of Tizimin! THANK YOU ALL
SO SO SO SO MUCH!!!
I hope you like the pics this week
and for those who didn't send me anything, for my present you can READ
YOUR SCRIPTURES ha just kidding. EVERYBODY SHOULD READ THEIR SCRIPTURES!
Ha I love you all!
Love,
The Happiest Elder in the World!
