     I don't know why but I have just put off emailing you as long as I can.. It's not that I don't love you or anything but I just don't really have that much to say. We did have district conference this week which was really fun. We had a member of the seventy come who was super fun and nice but I am not even gonna try to spell his name. Just know that he is Filipino and I really liked him. Last Monday elder Kapeli and I bought a cake to celebrate our 1 year mark and the worker just looked at me like I was crazy when I said put happy one year on the cake. So then I had to explain myself but whatever.  Tuesday I went of exchanges with elder Kapeli and we had a blast. He was always laughing and having a good time so I really enjoyed my time with him. He says he will be going to byu so maybe you'll get to meet him because I promised to teach him how to snowboard. Wednesday we did a csp at a members house in pamplona. they are super nice and old. they live here half the year and Seattle the other half so they are trying to get their house ready for that. clean up the yard and stuff. So I had a good old time hacking at all this undergrowth with a machete. They also made us pancakes with mix from America that was so so good. other than that it was a pretty normal day probably because I honestly don't remember anything that happened on it. Thursday was weekly planning which was a party as always. We have really been striving to step up our weekly planning so it took us a long time but luckily I had snacks. Friday of course was district council which I love. the workshop was on preparing people for baptism and it went pretty well. We also found out that one of the people that we had plans to baptize, Judy an, is moving to Manila for work... sad day :( but she says she will continue while she is there and probably get baptized there so whoever the missionaries are out there are freakin lucky.  Sturday we walked a freakin ton. but all of our planned lessons fell through. some days are just like that I guess. but we were able to talk to a lot of people so that was fun. Sunday was district conference which was great. lots and lots of people came but we didn't all really fit in the building. thats all good though I guess.
