The time just keeps on flying by. Just like the kites we see in our sector everyday. That is one of the cool things about where we are is that it is a pretty humble neighborhood and so there are always just lots of things happening out in the street. But these last few weeks all the kids have started to come out with their kites and flying them. but it is a different ball game than the states. When I flew kites it was basically throw them in the air and they would fly... but here it is a process and a talent. You have to know the techniques or they wont stay up. There are also some kids that are pretty gangster and use string that has glass on it and they fly their kites into other peoples kites and cut their string with theirs so that their kite goes flying off in the wind it is serious business. 

Everything is going really well. We found a really awesome family from peru this week who are really excited to go to church. Daniella is doing well and is getting ready for her baptism. We are excited for her. We are to the part of the change that is a little bit more chill for us without so many trainings and stuff so we get to have so more time in our sector and in divisions which is relly great.

I cant believe that school has already started! Everyone is getting so old. I hope the school year started well and that everyone gets all 7's. (that is how they do the grades down here 1-7 instead of A, or B or C. 7 is the best.) 

We have also been teaching a venezuelan named carlos that is super cool. Our new ward mission leader has also been taking out the trash with all of our investigators and inviting them over to his house and stuff like that. So the invitation this week is that you can find someone for the missionaries to teach in our house. It will be hard... but not impossible. If you do it I will give everyone a big high five.

P.S. it sounds like they can't buy the plane tickets until like 50 days before I go home or something like that... but I am pretty sure that my release date is like the 30 or so... I should be heading out from here on the 29 of october and be back the next day. I will be back just in time for halloween.
