I got back with my ex wife... and we have another child 👪💥
Holaaaaaaa
That's the only pic I have with all of them in it, but here's one of us with los padres!!
That's right, we throwin' it back! Apparently Hna Carson and I didn't traumatize our last child (Hna Gray) too badly, so Prez has now entrusted us with...
Hermana Day!
And we mostly haven't traumatized her either. (Other than that one nightmare she had where we went around knocking doors and poisoning people with lemon bars 😬.)
Anyways, we might be shipping this one off to Peru in a little bit. (She's a visa waiter, so she could leave today or in like 5 months jaja.)
I'm also in a new area now!!!!! After 6 beautiful months in good ol' Hurstbourne, I have now been moved so, so far away to BROOKSIDE!
It's actually only like 30 minutes away and in my same District, zone, and stake, but it's a different ward! And it's my first time not being in a spanish branch! Basically our ward has a spanish "group" connected to it, but honestly it's pretty half n half between Kentucky crazies and awesome latinos! Including the...
Perez Family!
That's the only pic I have with all of them in it, but here's one of us with los padres!!
They. Are. Awesome!!!!
They basically run the group, and Presidente Perez (the one in the sombrero) is in the stake presidency!
Anyways, I love them!! Their house also is my dream house. They said that they purposely chose to style it after the Ghibli movies, so I hope that gives y'all an idea because I don't have many pictures of it 😅
And now... I'm just gonna give y'all a random list of things that happened. ✨️disfruten✨️
WE CONVERTED AN ORANGUTAN
So we went to the zoo again last week, and we were trying to get this Orangutan to come up to the glass because he was in the back of his enclosure and we couldn't see him very well. So one of the other Hermanas whipped out a picture of Joseph Smith and the first vision and put it up against the glass. Within minutes, our ape friend came right up in front of us, stared at the picture, and put his fingers up to his chin in contemplation. I think he's gonna pray to know if it's true you guys!

MULTICULTURAL FESTIVAL
We had the most hype Stake Party ever, with DELICIOUS food from like 50 different countries, and we got to perform a few different spanish songs with some of the spanish group! There was also a bunch of cool dances!! And all of us missionaries performed cotton eyed Joe jaja.
BAPPY-DATE
On our third day in the area, we had a lesson with a cool dude named Andres! He's a horse jockey for the kentucky Derby! Anyways, this was like our second lesson with this guy, and as we're explaining baptism, Hermana Day nudges me in the shoulder and gestures to her phone, where she has written down, "Invite to be baptized?" And we were like eh ok why not? And so we did, and he excepted! And even better, we gave him a Book of Mormon and invited him to read 3 nephi 11, and in our next lesson he went IN DEPTH with all the things he liked from it and about why baptism needs to be done by the right authority and just... GAH! He's so awesome you guys! (I don't have pictures of him rn I sorry)
GRAVEYARD CLEANING
We helped clean up an abandoned graveyard that got re-bought. Muy bien, 10/10 service
✨️TRANSLATING✨️
Normally our spanish group meets separately for sacrament meeting, but this last Sunday we had the primary program, so spanish and English met together. So I had the lovely opportunity to help translate. And oh boy, did it humble me.
EL FIN
Anyways, this area is awesome. I be vibin' out here. If y'all made it this far, tell me what's your favorite foreign food you've eaten?
Jesus les ama!!
