hey mom

this week was pretty good. oh and ps thanks for telling me the big Conference news..... NOT!! i wanted to find out when i watched. but i guess its ok. im sure someone would have told me earlier anyways. contacting went well this week although we didnt really find anyone new, but things are going well. our new swahili teacher is awesome! like a 100% difference... im now excited to be learning it again. i will tell sister ndiwalana thank you, for you. i think she will think it will be funny to get her something for her birthday. if you put something in my account i would love to do something nice for her. her birthday is nov 15th so hopefully i can think of something by then haha. she is from uganda. she is pretty kool. i think its funny that you watched "the district" haha. in the mtc we watched those things to help us to learn how to teach and stuff haha. well about jess and stuff. i did get her email about it and i believe i wrote her a message. i even asked her what the baby's name is going to be. i think it should be a swahili name so that i can know what the name means haha. i think that wet n wild would be great thing to do especially if it involved really really nice food. because i like and miss food a lot haha. ok well for me im pretty much fine here. thanks for asking. if i need anything i will definitely let you know. wow im glad that dixie is doing well. i hope that i will be there when they are still pretty good. hah. well no one has come from nairobi yet to deliver any packages. i think i might have to wait until november when the aps come to dar again. so i dont know when i will get you and grandma's birthday present. and ya i know she sent it in july!

well this week was pretty nice. we had some pretty good lessons and stuff. we got a new swahili teacher like i said and he is awesome. the old teacher would just be like a dictionary and would just tell us words and stuff because he really sucked. i hated class when he was the teacher because i pretty much had to learn by myself. also this week we went to get some burgers and they were really good. i think i might just get some today too haha. well this week we had a really powerful lesson. we were teaching a girl that we have been teaching for awhile. we taught her about the authority from God that is needed in the church. she opened up a little and told us that she has been having some problems but when we come she feels peace and stuff and she cried. it was the first lesson that ive had where some one cried, but its was good. then on saturday we had a contacting day. we did this mainly because no one really knows that our church is a church because it just looks like a really big house. we have been teaching a guy with the sisters and he is going to be baptized either this week or two weeks after because the week after next we will be watching conference. im really excited for conference too. it will be my third time watching conference in Africa. it will be nice.

 

well thats pretty much it from me this week. i hope that you are doing well. i love ya

love reese
