Happy Birthday Week!

Not much in the way of New news this week. I am very excited for my birthday. We will possibly have meetings on that day, but they usually are really great and a nice break. Elder Sam Skidmore gave me referral all the way from Florida! He met a Cambodian who had a relative in Long Beach... pretty cool! 

Here's a picture of me and my companion in the mission home. He's a really great guy and things are going well. 

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

This is Halloween....Cambodian style!

 I'm excited for Halloween, although we are just going to be cleaning our apartment. It's going to be a fun week. Our ward Halloween party was crazy. The bishop's wife did it all in a Nightmare Before Christmas theme.  It takes forever to attach pictures so I'm just going to send one or two. It was really cool and decked out. The Cambodian people are great.  The deaf man we have been teaching came to church! All dressed up with his hair slicked back.  We were so glad to see him.We have started to find a lot of people which is nice. Hopefully we won't have to transfer even more to the singles ward! 

I can't tell you all what it means to get a letter from friends and family.  I may not have time to write back, but I don't want you to think that I don't greatly appreciate the time you take to just say, Hi! Or telling me what is going on with you and your families.  I love hearing about even the smallest things.  So a big THANK YOU to all of you, from the bottom of my heart!
