Hey yo! Que passooo??? como estuvo tu semana? :) I tried to find that other voice recording for you but i just can't find it!!! i think my email must have deleted it somehow :( i will do a new one tonight for you my love :) Did Anna Marie get baptized this week?? i sure hope so!! i hope you are doing good and always remembering how amazing you are!!! seriously Klay, you can do anything :) with the lord you can do anything :) My friends were supposed to get baptized this week but it didn't happen... their dates have been pushed back a couple of weeks if they really decide that they want to get baptized. which i hope they do!! i'm not giving up on them!! i still believe that they will receive that witness from the holy ghost :) we talked about the gift of the holy ghost in church today, it was muy muy bueno :) All of them are having a problem with all of the "rules" that the church has, like no coffee or tee, or other things like that. it drives me nuts. They ask why too much. I just want to say "you just do what the lord asks, you don't question it!" ha but i can't because they want a reason... or they think it's a useless rule. Any suggestions for what to say to them? I have used what you said to me, that the commandments are pure love from god, not restrictions. But I don't think that makes sense in their brains for some reason.
This week was halloween and it was possibly the least exciting halloween ever ha i literally did nothing, didn't even dress up or give little kiddos candy or anything! oh well i don't like halloween anyways haha
te amo!!!!! :) ha i really do yo :) I haven't gotten any letters from you in quite a while :( have you sent any to my University Village yet? or have you still been sending them to my house? I'm supa excited to get another :)
Do you have any questions for me? i will answer pretty much anything sir. I am really trying to think of questions to ask you... um.. what does your president say about me? has he encouraged you to forget about me? ha i sincerely hope not. I hope i am a source of support for you and not a distraction. So i will be waiting for that letter that tells me what i need to do to be better for you :) I want to be the best I can for you Klay... I don't want you to have to settle, I want to be everything that you want me to be. I can't believe how fast time is going by! At Christmas it will be 8 months... and christmas is not far away at all ha seriously it makes me so happy that it is going by fast now :) I hope it continues like this!!! :)
So i just want to tell you where I stand right now. I love my Savior Klay. I really truly love him. I don't know what I would do without him so close to me, I would probably be very lost and sad. I love what he did for me but I also hate it. I hate that I made him suffer... it makes me so sad. Lately I have tried to live by this.... I know I was part of his sufferring... but i want to be the least part of that as possible. you know? And everytime I do something bad i think about how that was one more thing that he had to suffer for. It makes me so sad, yet so grateful at the same time that he was willing to suffer for me, so that I wouldn't have to. I know that as I get closer to him, I get closer to you :) And that is a beautiful thing. That's how I know we will last. Through all the storms and cloudy days of our relationship, christ will be there to calm the waters and make everything ok again :) Keep him close and you keep me close. :) I love you klay, don't you dare forget that.
Love lou lou
Here is a voice recording for you darlin :)
enjoy :)

Hey!!! dont you give up on those girls and bear your testimony to them. Bear your testimony of the Word of Wisdom and Testify to them that they will feel the presence of the Holy Messenger of God. that he will testify to them that Joseph Smith was a prophet. God sees tea and coffee as beautiful excuses to convert people unto Him. If you challenge them to not drink coffee or tea for a week and pray at least once a day and read the book of mormon, they will recieve a prompting of the Holy Ghost and an understanding that they were seperating themselves from God and that the word of wisdom is the way to be spiritually mentally and physically strong to be able to overcome the world. as christ says. Fear not for i have overcome the world. Because He was perfectly obedient even if He didnt understand. When He was on the cross He said if it be thy will take this cup from me. A punishment that made even a God tremble, yet he still did it just to be obedient to God. and all they have to do is stop drinking a liquid. Tell them if they want an answer to ask God.
hehe thank you lou lou :) tell you friends that the reason for not drinking tea and coffee is the fact that when we drink it, it distances us from the spirit and we cant feel the love of God as directly. its like putting on a boxing glove to scratch someone back. He just wants to love you with all He has and not have to hold back because we werent willing to listen to him. Coffee and tea are very powerful and addicting. Many cant wake up without their coffee and the first commandment is love God and put no Gods before Him. If we cant wake up without coffee but we can get on with our day without a prayer to God, Coffee has put God in second place. Goes for tea also. Tell them that if they want to experience the heartbreak, keep leaning upon the arms of the flesh and not that of God. But if they want to experience freedom that comes of Christ, Do the things that he asks. Christ knew many would make excuses so he states it very clearly in matt 15 16 i do believe. If ye love me, keep my commandments. He has commanded us not to drink coffee and tea. If the reason of loving the Savior isnt strong enough, i have never met someone so ungrateful for an atonement. To not put aside a simple drink to confess your love for the Savior by following His simple commandments.
MWAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Okay haha it's just hard. Chi says that tea is good for you...like it has health benefits and she says she's not addicted to it because she only has it occasionally... so I don't know? Ha then I tried to use the "dont drink hot drinks" argument and they say, well what about hot chocolate? Ha yeah it is confusing me
Ah i love you, you are smart :) I will tell them :) I just dont like it how people get so hung up on the silliest things...like it doesn't matter people! Haha
