Package!

As you can tell I've got more pictures!!! Josh has been working on getting us a package for months now, but could never afford it or find the time to get it mailed. Before he got transferred out of his last area the sisters there told him they knew someone going to Phx to be with their family so he sent my package there. He sent me an address, name and phone number and a sentence to tell them in Spanish (since they spoke no English) and laughed and said "good luck!" Well Blanche and her family tried to call, but they said they didn't know anything about a package. I could care less about the stuff, I knew he sent me a photo cd! So a month goes by and we find ourselves again in Phx for my sisters sealing. We tried the number again (lucky I have brother in laws who are fluent) 3 phone calls later and 1 1/2 hours in the car and we got our package!!!! I'll post pictures of the purse later and the shirt he sent the kids! I got not one photo cd but 4!!! He already apologized for the first two, lost of scenery few pics of him. At least he's learning I don't care how cool the background is as long as he's in the foreground! I'm sure he'll enjoy them though. So for now we are blessed! He's doing well! Little freaked out, but really doing great! Thanks so much for all your prayers and concerns for him! If you have any questions feel free to call!
Love you all!

More about Swine flu

so yeah this week has been straight up crazy!!! this influenza is getting a little scary, as of yesterday 1,100 people (not sure on the numbers there are lots of rumors )have died here and everyone is freaking out but our president told us to keep working with Faith so we have been working but no one wants to talk to us because they are afraid of getting sick so its a little difficult but we are doing our best to stay healthy, been giving lots of blessings so hopefully we will be safe, but yeah we didnt have church yesterday and pretty sure not this week either so yeah its serious, but im really not that worried about it we have our mission doctor and stuff so yeah
so im glad that the temple was good im soo happy for Kim and Adam i wish i could have been there. so you guys finally got that package haha yeah i thought lia might like that purse and the shirt is the only one i have it just doesnt fit me so i sent it home and yeah the money haha those arent worth anything they are 1/10 of a peso they are less than a penny and good for nothing here haha.
so about the mothers day call im not sure anything about it haha its the 10th of may right? haha but if you guys want to go down to safford to call thats cool i wouldnt mind talking to everyone but if you cant thats cool too president hasnt said anything about it yet so ill let you know. I'm having the time of my life and love it, let everyone know how much i love them give lia and sam hugs and i love you guys soo much, keep us in your prayers this is a pretty tough time down here right now, thanks! well i better get going i love you

MEN

(I just love how he starts a letter making fun of my questions, but at least he's trying to answer)
ha ha I forget to explain things. a sistern is a huge box underground that holds water because in mexico the government turns off the water like 2 days a week so people get these so they never run out.
but as for T... wow im not even sure what to say im soo happy for him and deciding to go home and take care of it and get his life back on track what a hard trial. but he will be stronger, being on a mission is amazing it is the hardest thing ive ever done but with the sacrifice comes blessings and that is the best part, in these 2 years soo many things happen in our life soo many changes take place and even though we left "boys" we return as "MEN" there is nowhere else i would rather be right now i couldnt imagine my life without serving a mission i love it.
Soo yeah thats the news for now but ill let you know if anything happens we cant work so we have a lot of free time haha well i love you guys and take care, see if you can find anything out on that package i sent with that lady for you guys in the valley and tell cami i said "HELLO FROM MEXICO!!!" well i better get going
Adios,
