Hola!
It’s only
been 7 days but it feels like an eternity away from IF ha ha. Time passes differently at the MTC. Thank for
the letters, I’ve got them both but I haven’t been able to send any yet because
I’ve been super busy but I’ve written some out and I’ll try to find time to
send them. Life here is good, the dorms are okay, the teachers are cool and
food is awful. Spanish is hard but I’m picking it up a lot faster than I
thought I'd be, apparently Hermana Estrada(our teacher) said we're learning it
quicker than any other group she’s taught so that's kind of exciting. The
cinnamon rolls were an awesome package, thank you! So one member of our
district ended up leaving the first day we got here so his companion ended up
joining us making me and my companion a three some. There’s Elder Russell from
Indiana and Elder Palmer from Utah, they’re both pretty cool, easy to get along
with. We also lucked out and were sharing a 6 man apartment with two bathrooms
with just our companionship, it’s nice. My district is way cool, everyone in
our district is going to the exact same mission so there's a good chance I’ll
see most of them again which is awesome. They're downsizing our campus though
and this Friday we're moving to the main and my p day will change to Friday and
my mailing address will change but I’m not sure to what yet. It’ll be cool
though, they’re supposed to have better food. Sorry if I can’t say much we
don't have a lot of time, I also didn't want to write 2 emails so I’m just
going to respond to this one. Elder Ballard came yesterday, he gave an hour
long devotional about being a missionary what’s expected of you, it was
awesome, it was amazing to see how focused everybody was when he was speaking. Next
week another apostle is supposed to come but we don't know who yet, were all making
bets. So yeah life here is good, glad to
see life in Idaho is great! Here’s a picture, Elder Russell is on the left and
Elder Palmer is on the right
Love,
Elder Wixom
