Pictures!

We finally got some pictures:
This picture is of me, drinking my very first red creme soda while my companion was getting his hair cut. I like red creme soda.


This is my district! We all look insane! I'm the third from the left, and the two directly behind me are my companions, Elder Lemmon and Elder Blackhom (sp?).

This picture was intended to be a plea for more Swedish Fish (the solitary fish being the last of my supply) but it took me too long to develop the picture and I got impatient.

So!
At mealtime, i normally get like one tray and a dessert and am just right. One of my companions gets like three platters all the time. i don't know how he does it, maybe its because he fidgets hard core all day long, but even so hes just lanky. So anywho, its always been funny to compare what we've eaten, becuase he's conquered probably four times as much food as i. One day however, the options were a navajo taco (we know how good those are!) and a grilled chicken sandwich on a kaiser roll. well i had to get the taco, which i ate quite successfully. but as i looked on some passerbys' trays, i longed to also have the chicken sandwich, and you know, they might not ever have that again, so i got it, and conquered that. Feeling quite good about myself, having matched my companions food amounts in every way (though they had 2 tacos as opposed to 1 and 1) i was ready to go. just then though, my companion from utah gets an idea, get the scone, thats right, scone from the bottom of the taco, and put icecream on top of it! knowing how proud dad would be of me, and how delicious the scone would undoubtedly be, i had know choice but to accept the idea. Plus, not only was it a big deal to have scones ready at hand, but we get ice cream but twice a week, so to have the both fall on the same day, the same meal was quite an occurence. we were the talk of the cafetiria that day, and it was a huge step for all mankind.and, it was probably the best thing ever.Ive documented some of the glory that i will later send for your viewing pleasure!And be ready, cause ive got another story coming your way tambien!It is even more exciting, believe it or not. other than that, ive got like two more weeks, though the spooky stories of missionaries being here for 2,3,4 extra weeks are multiplying like cockroaches! but have fun everybody!
i love you!
adios!
