I would like it if y'all could send me some photos in the next email of the family together, I don't have any good ones with me! Maybe some of the ones we have of being at the park in Gordon. Also, how is getting the house sold going? I've been thinking about it here and there, praying for it to sell. Let me know as soon as the prayers work! I wanna get that hundred year-old puppy sollld!
Agh. The news about Jesse, so sad. I actually did know him somewhat, got to talk to him a good little bit. State champ wrestler, bright kid, decent person, I'll be praying for his family.
ALSOOOO do NOT mention the beach EVER EVER EVER EVER AGAIN! Not 'til after the mission! NAUUUUGGGHHT fair! Bah!
HEY GOOD NEWS!! If y'all would like to hand-craft a letter for me, for the next two weeks (safely), you can send them to my house address right HERE:

Things are going good out here, I'm getting yet more and more comfy with Portuguese, and I'm enjoying myself more. I'd be lying if I EVER said it was all peaches and cream, because it's more like peaches with sour cream...the delightsomely tasty fruit is still there, but you gotta learn to deal with the sour stuff too if you wanna get anything out of it at all!
Before leaving you wanting for more words from me I'm gonna leave you with some important facts to remember, each one of you! They are the following:
1) You are ALL actually cool. I would TOTALLY 'like' you all on facebook.
2) If you were a star, I would say you were a pulsar, 'cause you're all super bright, and not necessarily very hot, but you're all the astronomy fanatics can think about, even if you did just start out as a blobby mass before you were born that no one cared about. Love you ;)
3) I love you all. Think about you a sufficient amount, that's for sure. I work hard so that you all can receive extra blessings, so make sure you're paying attention when those blessings come your way, and recognize your Heavenly Father for it! Seriously!
4) The Gospel is true. I promise. And it's absolutely stunningly beautiful, because its principles and precepts are built into nature, into this beautiful earth. For example, read 2 Ne. 28:30. Bit by bit, we're designed to grow, and eventually become like the Lord. The same way that each unimposing drop that falls from a stalactite on the ceiling of a cave, gives, bit by bit, a little more substance to the stalagmite on the cave floor. It's slow, and unnoticeable, but using every bit of mineral given by the drops falling from above, the stalagmite eventually gains enough mass to reach the stalactite, and the two then are joined together, never to be separated again. Never ever ignore the gifts our Heavenly Father gives, every single one is designed to get us back to Him!
Bye, love you guys :) Sending some pictures, so heads up!
God be with you,
Elder Reneer
