Hey!

How´s everyone doing?! Sounds like you guys are still staying busy.That´s cool you guys are fixing up the brown house, i didn´t know youwere doing all that stuff. It´s going to look way different by thetime i get back. Football is doing good by what I hear. I´m nervousfor you guys this friday I hope you beat royal! Has chandler beenplaying linebacker at all? All i ever hear is him playing quarterback.BUt it sounds like he´´s having a good time. THat´s good that garrettis getting opportunities to play, too bad he wasn´t there in the lastgame.The members here are pretty good about feeding the missionaries well,although we had somewhat of a funny experience happen just the otherday. IT´s funny now but at the time we were dying. So we´re heading tothe members house for lunch, which is on the other side of town. Weget there and we sit down to eat and what´s different is that thefamily doesn´t eat with you. THey´re eaither in another room doingsomething or they leave. Even the mom left the kitchen, but anyways wehave Nothing to drink, the meat tasted like dog (not sure what dogtastes like, but i really think it was dog) and they don´t havedessert. I wasn´t disappointed about the dessert, we usually are luckyif we get dessert. BUt it was quite interesting, then after we werefinished everyone comes in and we´re all talking. It´s a bit differentand it´s not usually like this all the time. But I can´t complain,it´s better than nothing and they take the time to make the meals forus and i really am greatful. Lots of times the members ask us what welike and honestly I will eat anything. BUt they like to make something"different" for us rather than beans and rice. Honestly though, i lovethe beans and rice i don´t want them to "change it up" THe meals forthe most part though are really good. Well, we had a baptismsaturday(another neighbor) and it was really neat. REmember the girland boy that we were teaching last transfer that I told you about, andthe experience we had with them? Marilia and João Victor, well I thinkthey´re going to be baptized! Marilia was talking about it last nightand now that her brother and nephew are members I think she´ll realizewhat the right choice is. THey all live in the same house and hernephew goes to seminary every night and she´s really good friends withour other neighbors and some of the kids from the ward. We´ll see whathappens this week, we´re going to talk with them. Well, i have to getgoing. Hope all is well and hope you all have a great week! I love you!!!!!!!!!!

love, sister salisbury
