June 30, 2014

Lacey:
hello there klayton Kelsey :) How is your life progressing? How is your mission progressing? How are the argentines? Is the food getting any better? what about yeny? was this week the week for her baptism? I hope so! cause that is super importante. if it didn't happen this week, just make sure that it happens!
yes I made that birthday cake for your birthday :) haha I celebrated... without ya. ha my dad ate most of the cake... but that's ok :) I even blew out a candle for you and made a special wish :) did you blow out candles on your birthday?
I am glad that you sent me that voice recording... it gave me peace. I have been waiting since... like march for you to get that letter, and every week I was freaking out a little. I trusted that you would forgive me and everything would be ok, but I still was nervous. So.. i'm glad you got it, and thank you for forgiving me. It did make my love for you stronger. While I was dating him, it reminded me of myself in high school, and I wasn't happy. Sometimes I thought I was happy cause I wasn't so lonely... but now that I look back I wasn't happy. You are the only person I have ever been in a relationship that hasn't put me in a situation where I felt guilty. You are the only one I have truly been in love with. There is something different with us :) and I love it, a lot. so i'm not going to risk that for attention anymore, it is too important.  This experience has showed me that you will be there for me no matter what! you will love me no matter what, and I am grateful for that. I just hope I can show you more that I deserve that love.
this week I worked my bum off. which is good ha I would rather work hard and be tired than stay home and do nothing! really that is all I did haha we leave at 5 in the a.m. and then get back at 7:30, then I eat and shower and write in your book thing, then go to bed so i'm not dead tired the next day haha then do it all again all week. Friday night I did go to your sisters house. Trev was at scout camp so I thought I should visit her. we stayed up talking until 12.. haha I love her. she tries hard klay. She really wants to be the best she can. That is something that I love to see in people, desire to do good. Because that is one step closer to being better than people that just don't care to change. My roommates... they had no desire. They wouldn't even pray on their own or read the scriptures to see if they could get an answer, they wouldn't even answer the questions that the missionaries would ask them, they would just say, "i don't know" and shrug their shoulders, it was the most frustrating thing in the world. But anyway, we had a good talk, I am going to write you a letter about it. :) and I just can't wait for you to see britlee and hear the things she says, I could just hang out with her all day and be fully entertained :)
My calling is going well.. kinda. It is frustrating cause the other leader has said some things that are honestly kind of inappropriate.. I don't even know why she brought them up. but she did and the girls went home and told their parents and now all the parents are upset...ugh. drama. it's just her personality though... like she just says stuff without thinking sometimes, and I don't want to confront her in front of the girls... so idk I think I need to go talk to cam. I just want it to be fun! I want the girls to learn important things and learn how to be good people and have fun in activity days, everything will work out, it's just frustrating cause the other leader is like 30 and I'm 19 so I don't feel like I should be telling her what to do. it will be ok haha I am in charge of activity days next week and we are going to play water games :) i'm excited it'll be fun! I am only going to be their leader for a little while until I go back to weber, which is kinda sad... but oh well. I think I am going to buy them those ctr rings as a goodbye present or something haha Ty wants a ring too... so i'm gonna get him one
Quote for the week, "doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will". -Karim Seddiki. This is so true! Remember when you were a kid? Did you ever dream about being something super amazing when you grew up? Like kids dream about being president or idk... being a professional sports player or something. I wanted to be a professional dancer. So how come I don't dance anymore? because I doubted it would ever happen, and I wonder a lot what would have happened if I would have believed in myself a little more and kept dancing. One thing I have never doubted though is that I would wait for you :) never ever. A lot of people have doubted that I could do it... but I never have. Because that is one dream i'm not going to let slip away from me. Don't doubt yourself klay! doubt in yourself only leads to "what if". And don't doubt other people! Only encourage :)
Do you like my nails? :) haha my family is upset with me cause I want argentina to win the world cup more than America :) haha I just think argentina is going to win! they have a better team than the US.
well, I love you klay. very much so :) I hope you have a great week with much success, good luck!!! :)
love lou



Also I forgot to put a quote on last weeks email... sooo here it is, "may your life preach more loudly than your lips" -William Elery Channing. This is so important. especially with kiddos! They don't care how much you to tell them to be like Christ, if you aren't living like Christ, they aren't going to listen. Our actions mean so much to people, I know I notice when people do good.  You are very good at this I have noticed. :) You live as an example of the believers! and I love that! So keep it up :) let us always live as if Christ is walking by our side. love you!

Klay:
hahahahahaha that is so sweet lou!!!!! i hope that argentina wins too!!! you know why? cuz i am behind enemy lines and they are going to kill me if the states win :) so i just will be happy!!! haha but your nails are fantastic! this week Yenny is going to get baptized for sure! i am very happy for your decision to wait for me. dont you dare doubt :) you are my hero. if i lose ya, i lose a mission of spiritual impressions as to how i wanted to bless you are make you happy in your life, the which every one is written in paper. and i expect to use every one of them. just be patient :) just keep swimming. light attracts light and darkness the darkness. if you stay in the light and hold tight to Christ, you are mine. ;) hehe dont play with fire and keep kicking guys like you did with the blood donor guy which made me overly happy. i need your help in your prayers continually. you are such a support for me. and every prayer is a great help for me. If it doesnt hurt a little, it aint a sacrifice . . .i love that quote :) keep sending me them :) they help me out. i hope that you like the story about your tie in the voice recording :) remember lace with your calling. the difficulties are part of the gospel. thats why adam fell. remember that correction is necessary, but Christ did it in private. buy her a coke and go chat with her at the dam. you can change her life. share your testimony. search for the story of the young rich boy with Christ in the bible and search for what Christ did before correcting the young rich boy. that is the study that i am leaving you :) thank you for helping my sister :) you are a strong pillar in her life :) help everyone lou lou. i will do my part as well as i can. this kingdom is Gods and his kingdom can be freely given and not lose a single part. i love you little one. know that. work hard and dont worry about the dead animals on the side of the road ;) the bull is at the end of the journey hahahhaaha. and i lost a pound today kicking a goal in soccer!!!! so i am very skinny and handsome :) haha. keep praying. iluyaguts! GO ARGENTINA! love you my little hero. Your Elder. 

alright, ima write you a little more. i am sending a letter of a few ideas :) tell me what you think about them. also, i am sorry if i havent been able to reply all of your questions. i am very busy.haha but keep wearing your CTR ring! Choose the right! in spanish for the missionaries Cambia Tu Religion hahahah that means change your religion ;) love ya lou!
