 HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM !!!!

 Mac N Cheese!

Above our apartment building!  Yay!

 

So, I am already out of time basically. Sorry. First off, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM! I love you Mom, and hope that you are having a great day. Also, Happy Fathers Day Dad! I love you Dad. This week was another fast week in my life. As always. Ha. Its been a normal week of visiting people and teaching them. We have been trying to find new people, and the man that showed up at church on Sunday, we went and taught him. Samuel is his name. He will be travelling a lot in the near future, but he was greatly interested. He has been a part of the "Congregação Cristão No Brazil" for all his life, but he was interested and drawn to the church. We weren't able to visit Gisele and Marcello this week, but we will this coming week. And as for wiring showers, It wasn't a complicated wiring, ha, just a quick fix up. Nothing to worry about either, all is done. Ha. Sorry that my time is short, but I would like to leave you with a scripture in 1 Thessalonians 5:16. It is very simple, but its something that we should all seek. We truly do have many reasons to be joyful, and to rejoice. I love you all, and hope you all have a great week.

Abraço,

Elder Tanner Ross Paxman

PS: I do miss a good american BBQ. Ha. As for our food here, everyday we eat with the members, or on some occasions we get money from them. But here, we eat Almoço, or Lunch, with them. Only on P-day we make our own stuff, or sometimes for a dinner at night. Our apartment is a two bedroom apartment with two bathrooms, a "big room" and a kitchen with a side "Laundry room." Its all tile, and its not bad at all. As for the boyfriend girlfriend day, its basically our valentines day, but its only among those that are dating or married. Its not the "everyone gets candy" kind of thing.
