Hola familia! from Elder Terry

Hola familia!

How is life going dear family? Life is going pretty well for me here at the MTC. Learnin a ton and dominating this spanish thing, ha ha not really but its coming a lot much better than expected. Yesterday my whole district (about 8 other elders) went the whole day without speaking any english. It helps a lot that way so we can see what we need to work on.

Ty and Trev thanks for your letters, its fun getting them and seeing what you guys are up to. Ty have you built a butler robot yet? Trev is it pretty cool having shorter hair?

So a pretty funny story. I was happy to see that I had recieved about 5 dearelder letters, so I was pretty stoked. I opened them all...and 4 out of 5 of them were addressed to Jake Terry...even tho the front had my name on it. I was like "what the..."sad huh? It took me a while to figure out they were not to me...I was like I don't really know who these people are! I've been gone for a month and you forgot my name!? ha ha :) the icing on the top was their mom's name is Joyce also...so I was like really mom, you forgot my name already? :) chiste (joke) So if you do send dearelder letters and I dont mention them that is why.

Oh, FYI everyone here is named Elder Terry...its nuts. They are everywhere! By far the most common name here, which is really wierd because I never really knew many other Terry's in highschool and all that jazz. Some from California, Idaho, and Nevada.

Oh behalf of Stanly I would like to thank everyone who was involved in his selling. He will be missed, however he has served his purpose. I hope you saved the License Plate.

Elder Ballard came to speak to us last Tuesday! It was really good. He talked about how we need to have a positive attitute, and a lot of other great things. IT was amazing you could feel he was there before he you actually saw him.

Hmm, another funny story. my companion and another roomate talk in there sleep. The other night my companion yells "thats right!" and rolls over to go back to sleep...it was so funnY! The other one just moans in his sleep, but its still super funny.

With the Referal Center I talked to a lady for an hour and a half! It was a great talk and she agreed to have another appointment for saturday! We prayed over the phone together and she agreed to read some of the Book of Mormon before then. It is all about the Book of Mormon, everything that we believe rests on wheter its the truth. Nothing else. If the Book of Mormon is true, then Joseph Smith talked to God and everything after that is what He told them.

Today they started handing out our light sabers, Ty and Trev, I'll send back the pictures...they are super fun to play around with. I also am learning how to walk on walls. cool huh?

I have realized that I have not been adding quotes, but I have been thinking of a ton.

1st one: Everyman in someway is my superior
2nd one: Know this that man is free, to chose his life and what he'll be
3rd one: Yo quiro Taco Bell (that ones for you Jon and Trev :) ) I laughed forever
4th one: Do or Do not, there is no try -Yoda

Love you all and hope everything is going well!
