Family, 

Another week that went by way too fast. I feel like i say that every week, but that´s really how i feel! Elder Cox and I are kind of discouraged because again, none of our investigators came to church on sunday. It´s impossible for them to progress if they don´t come to church! Everyone tells us they´ll go, we even send members to pick them up, but things always come up and they don´t show on Sunday. When it comes down to it, it´s their choice and we can´t force them, but we´re going to give a last effort this week and if they still don´t show up we´ll have to drop a few investigators. But we have one investigator, Marjori, an 18 year old nursing student, who´s awesome. She couldn´t go to church this last week because her uncle died and she had to go to his funeral, but she accepted a baptismal date and we´re excited to work with her. 

Yes, elder Cox is from Utah state.. It´s a shame. But he´s going there for engineering on a scholarship- a really smart guy. He says he´s thinking about changing his major to something with computers and then he would transfer to BYU. I´m encouraging him to make the right choice :) And it´s really funny that we look so much alike- we get asked all the time if we´re twins. 

Where we live now just he and i are there. The zone leaders get nicer, bigger houses with a kitchen. Our new house is awesome. It´s easily the nicest place i´ve lived. The only problem is that water only comes three hours a day. they´re going to fix that today though supposedly. 

yes, Kraps crackers are just like Ritz and i love them. I also eat a lot of piqueo snax. It´s doritos, spicy fritos, cheetos, and lays mixed. It´s amazing. I also eat apples.. that´s the only fruit i eat. For dinner i usually eat hotdogs or grilled cheese and cereal  for breakfast. I feel like i´m back in college again, i love it! Not as good as mom´s cooking, but i´ll take it. 

I wear my glasses almost all the time. If i´m not wearing them in pictures it´s because i usually take them off. I would wear my contacts, but there is SO MUCH dust in the air it´s ridiculous, and i always have dust in my eyes, and i feel like contacts would be miserable. 

This week is transfers. We already got the info- we´re both staying here, but seven missionaries are being changed from our zone. So it´ll be another fun and exciting week! Sorry Brooke for not writing back.. I´m bad at writing back in emails, i don´t have much time. But i´ll write you right now :) 

Love you family!
