Hey yall!

As the title says we baptized two more people and the cool part is that these two families are complete. Now they’re all MORMONS! How cool is that?!

Good to hear you dropped a little weight and your blood pressure went down, good job, keep up the good work! How do you get chicken pox? Man you get to do all the fun stuff, good luck with that! The old folks are falling apart, I feel ya because I am still going bald, so I will be in the same boat as Dad when I get home, how crazy is that?!

Yes, Brother Solomon is awesome; I knew it a long time ago! It's true! No family is perfect no matter how loving or active in the church they may be, but were not here to be perfect or seem perfect, were here to prepare to live with our families for time and all eternity if we follow the commandments and do all in our power to perceiver till the end, then we will have the honor to do so.

Good to hear Jackie’s health is improving. It seems that Vic hasn’t changed much, and the same goes for Jeff. As for the INA business if you REALLY believe you can do it and that its really WORTH the effort you will FIND A WAY to make it happen. Be creative, and work with what you have. You will beat this thing I know it! Don’t worry about what the Young Guns do or don’t do just do your very best and you will reap the rewards soon.

Its a shame about Mike & Sunny moving into a 5th wheel for a year before they can afford to buy a home a home to raise their baby in, but they will overcome this trial. The cool thing is that Sunshine will be able to stay home with the kid and raise him the way they want to raise him.

Are Wally, Jenn, and Claire are crazy as ever? That's too bad they weren't able to stop by for Mother's Day. On a lighter note its super hot here and I’m looking like a balding Peruvian. I really like the jungle even though it’s an entire different world. I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since we were in Utah saying good bye. Man does time fly by when you’re having fun! It hasn’t been easy but it’s been an experience that I will never forget. In regards to the photos basically the computers suck here so I haven’t been able to burn a CD but I found a place that I can burn CDs straight from my disc. So I will send the disc to you guys tomorrow. Sorry about the delay but I did all that I can do to find a place for 2-3 P-days. My comp Elder Choc is helping me a whole lot with my Spanish and adjusting to the life of a good missionary. Who would have thought? Me of all people, a missionary and almost a good one at that. Being a good missionary was never something I thought I was capable of but I have changed a whole lot. I really understand the importance of the family unit, and my fear of people is pretty much gone with my pride out the window. I am so very grateful for the family and friends that put up with me all those years.

Please say hi to the family and friends for me. I love them very much. More than they know. Please keep me updated with everybody and what’s new with them.

Oh yes if you could send razors and that Nutrilite "Cal Mag D" that would be great because the food here doesn’t have much Calcium.


Remember NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE!

Love,
Elder Morton
