Hey guys,

Sounds like you guys had a good week. Well we would of had a baptism yesterday, but she did not want to go to church. Oh well that is what happens sometimes. Well this week was okay. I have to tell you guys a funny story. Well Friday night about 8 PM we were walking and some kids stopped us. They said something in English. I asked them if they spoke English. They said no. Well then they wanted me to speak in English. So I did. They did not believe me. Me and my comp said I am from the US and I speak English. Well the kids wanted me to speak Portuguese. So I put out a little. They said that I was lying that I spoke English. I thought that was a funny story.

Hey I have an idea for birthday presents. It will cost a little bit but I know you guys will like it. I need to take some money out. How much do I have in my account? It is a plaque with your name. I hope it will be okay. Also I found something else a cow horn thing. It is pretty cool. The reason I am taking out money is so I don’t have to use my debit card a lot. I hope you guys will understand. Hey don’t worry about sending me batteries. I remembered that I have a battery charger in my bag. Hey I think I will be going home in Sept not Aug. Just letting you know for future plans. They usually send you home a week before 2 years.

Well congrats on the b-ball game Jani and Mom. Sounds like Laurels camp was good. Sounds like everyone is doing well at home. Hey please send me a list of movies because Elder Beagles is going home in 3 weeks and wants to know.

Hey this is for you dad. I was walking and I saw 4 people in biking spandex, it reminded me of you guys.

Well Happy B-day dad on Friday, wow 45. Thanks for telling me because I totally forgot how old you were. Hey I have an idea for your b-day present.
Well have a good one. Take care of yourselves. Love you always.

Elder Shelley
