Matt: March 23rd 2011

Dearest most masterful family,
I am super sad to hear about Nena. It was wierd just this week I was saying to my comp, "I should write my grandma this p day." Who knew that all this would happen right then. As sad as I am for the loss of our beloved Nena, it makes me happy that she finally got her wish to pass on from this life and be reunited with Granddad.
So this week was pretty crazy. Kinda like the life of my beloved oldest sister who just turned 30...something ;)
YEAH WOOOO HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALISON!!!

So yeah this week we had a triple baptism. The moça that didn´t get baptized last week, and then a brother and a sister who me and my comp baptized. It was great. My comp elder Allgaier left the heater running for 3 hours and so it was pretty much like baptizing in a hot tub. No joke! It was almost baptism by water and by fire in the same instant. It´s way better than baptizing in freezing cold water so I can´t complain. What else? It seems like I´ve just been working my brains out, but it really is better that way. This week I saw my first drunk fight. It was just two guys throwing errant hay-makers and just airballs of punches at eachother until they both just grabbed eachother and fell down. Kinda scary, but not really.

I got letters from Nate J, Rhett, Nick, and Michael this week so THANK YOU!
Nate- that talk rocked my world.
Rhett- dude the new Pedro. NICE!
Nick- I have a list of stuff for us to do too ;)

Well I don´t have my notes and that´s all I can think to write about. I love you all like a Brasileiro loves soccer!
