The house is looking pretty nice! When are you all
officially going to move on in? I can´t wait to see the house when its
all done! Phil is back now as well with Adrienne coming back this
week! Wow, it does feel like everyone is coming back! Super cool.
I´ll still be waiting one more year, today was 11 month mark here in the
mission field so that was super exciting. Band looks like a lot of
fun. How did the parades go? Those new clothes are pretty nice!
This week was pretty normal here in Brasil. Nothing extremely
exciting happened this week. Tuesday was District meeting with two
districts which was cool. Wednesday was pretty normal, just walking and
talking. Right now we are trying to find more people to teach along
with reactivate a lot of the less actives here . The branch here just
needs a few more priesthood holders along with 30 more people to be able
to turn into a ward so right now we are trying to do a lot of
reactivation! Its been going pretty well so far and hopefully we´ll
continue to have success. Thursday and the rest of the week were
pretty normal. Not much happened out of the ordinary. Saturday was
Brasil playing against Chile which turned out to be really really
intense. To give you a good idea of how the World Cup games work,
There are two 45 minutes halfs, with a 20 minute break in between. If
you reach the end of the 90 total are the scored is still tied, there is
30 more minutes added on to the game to give the teams a little bit
more time to rest and make a goal. If by the time those 30 minutes are
up and the score is still tied, they start doing penalty kicks to make
goals which simply is one player and opposing teams goalie. The player
has one opportunity to kick the ball and make a goal and the goalie has
to try and save it. Each team has 5 penalty kicks and the team with the
most goals at the end wins. Brasil and Chile didn´t manage to break
the tie of 1-1 until the very last penalty kick which Brasil managed to
score and win. We were with a bunch of other members and their families
and when Brasil made the final goal, they all started jumping up and
down screaming they were so happy. Pretty darn funny to see. This
week here as well Saturday night I think it dropped down to 68 degrees
and everyone the next day was all bundled up with long sleeves they were
so cold. Its kinda of weird of you get accustomed to the heat so much
that when it drops it can feel a lot colder than it really is!
