Noah the Goat
He's now curing in the refrigerator at the slaughter house. Sorry Aaron. Friends were getting rid of all their goats because of the expense. They are dairy goats so the mama's found homes and the daddy's went to the slaughterhouse. Noah either shot blanks or made boys so he wasn't much use as a stud.

Hola mi familia amada. Im super excited to be able to write you all this beloved Monday. Things in Sahagún are just wonderful. We have changes tomorrow though and so I´m going to lose my beloved companion elder Tzab. Oh well I guess everything cant be perfect. Angela also wrote me the Dear John letter so you can all send me the I told you so remarks freely now. However I would just like to comment about the talk that Elder Jeffrey R. Holland wrote in January. Read that first before you start throwing the mud. Dont worry though it was pretty much over before I even left the MTC she just made it oficial today. Its funny how life Works sometimes. Things here in Mexico are going great! We brought seven investigators to church yesterday and the members were just awesome! I was like dropping a fly without wings in the middle of an anthill. The members were just all over introducing themselves and asking their names and where they live and the releif society president took their adresses to be able to visit them. It was so wonderful! I love these wards so much and Im so happy to have at least another six weeks here. The family that we baptized are also progressing so fast! Then more wonderful news is that they have finished the church building. We had been meeting in a house of prayer while they renovated and expanded the old church building and next week we are going to meet there. Its flippin sweet too! Its also going to provide a ton of opurtunities to expand the work. I´m hoping for a powerhouse companion becasue this entire city is about to be baptized. There are going to change the name to Anti-Nephi Sahagunitas! I love this work so flippin much! Nobody can stop it and nobody can stop me! I love you all and stay true to the faith!

Hello my wonderful family. I need to start with some begging. I really need socks and some white shirts. I would by them here but the quality of cloths kind of stinks. Plus I really like my shirt from distribution services that you got me so if you could send me like three more of those that would be great. Its size sixteen and a half thirty six thirty seven and as for the sox just send like eight pairs because I really don’t have any left without holes in them. Other than that though I guess I have to say that I really do love you all. I got a lot of emails this week from everyone and it really made me happy. I need Tyrels address as soon as you can get it to me because I need to tease him about his homesick experience. Also Katie sounds like she´s kicking butt and taking names on the basketball court. I have to admit I´m proud of my family and especially when I hear about how there helping the missionary work. It brings tears to my eyes I love this work so much! Although here its going sort of slow I´m still having the time of my life, this week we must have knocked a thousand doors with virtually no results. I love every minute of it though. I love coming home after a hard day and socking wet from the rain and dead tired and knowing that I did my best and that tomorrow I get to do it again. I love every minute I have to teach and I love bearing my testimony to all these people. Its hard when they reject me because I feel like they are rejecting the best thing in the world. Well actually they are rejecting the best thing in the world. However I am learning a lesson again and again about this work. I am learning that as I give my all in every moment and speak with the spirit and testify of Jesus Christ and the restored gospel. Even when it falls on deaf ears I know that when I leave they cannot deny that I have a powerful testimony of what I taught them. I have learned that as I build others the spirit builds me. Sometimes I feel like I´m just baptizing myself over and over again and to me that’s okay. I know this church is true and oh how I love it so much! That’s really what gets me down is that this is not just a bible study class but really a true and living church and no matter how well I explain it they just don´t understand sometimes. However as I feel the spirit teach through me I find myself deeper and deeper entrenched in the love I have for this gospel and for these people. Thank you all so much for raising me in this gospel. I know that it is true.
My ing information is in that black file box that I left. That has the costumer number and the password I cant remember but If you send me the costumer number than I can get it. Or you can say you forgot the password and theres some security questions that you can probably answer
