this week was a pretty dang good week. this week we were working with a guy named peterson who is having problems with the word of wisdom. he smokes tobacco so we are helping him to stop smoking. then later this week we caught him lighting up and we had to re commit him to stop. so we are trying to him polle polle (little by little in swahili) something that was kinda kool that happened this week was the relief society was having a party this week because of the national holiday called Mashujaa (Hero's day). and they made food and had a little get together. they made the best chapati/chapos that i have ever had. they are the tortilla like food but a little bit different. they had all the kids there and we played with them a little. then a bunch of the kids from around the church came in and we started playing with them. they found a hose and were playing tug of war with it so i told all of the kids to pull on one side and i would pull on the other. there was like 20 kids too and i was still beating them hah. it was so funny i will send you a pic of it. we also had like 7 investigators come to church so it was really surprising. it was the first time that, that many new people have been at church. so i kinda felt kool.
well im glad that you and sammy are having a good time getting ready for halloween.i kinda wish they had halloween here so i could get some free candy. cause i miss american candy and reeses hah. im also gald that you are having fun with milee. make sure you say hi to her for me and that i say thank you for all the stuff it has helped a lot. im excited to hear about how trick or treating goes. i miss good candy really bad. all the chocolate here is mostly wafers and stuff. anyways tell jay that im mad at him for hurting himself. he should have gotten that looked at awhile ago so he could have gotten it taken care of. and tell him to email me about football. also im glad that my dad made it to jays senior night too. i remember when he came to mine. i was so happy that he was there. im jealous that aunt margret and uncle moe were there. i hope they will come see one of my games when i get back.
the pics should be there by hopefully wednesday if they sent them as soon as they got home and hopefully by friday. dont worry i wont erase the card because i can take almost 7000 more pictures until it is full so i probably will never send it. so you can tell people to send me candy, burts bees and seasoning packets (taco, zatarans, etc) they do have american type food but nothing really like america. and unlike at home canned food is the most expensive food and boxed food. like mac and cheese is like 300/- which is like $3. so i have been eating a lot of ramen noodles but we do get to eat at members houses often so its alright. but i hope that i will have a ton more experiences like that. will you tell will lewis that when he gets to the MTC to buy me like 10 tempo candy bars and tell him that i will pay him back when he gets to kenya hah. im hoping that i will have an accent by then.
love Reese
