Elder Munoz: Visit With My Bro.... August 10, 2011 Letter with Photos!

hey MAH!!

i am still workin hard, but not really the rest of the things... haha i mean here's the deal. eating healthy is really hard to do when you have only 2 MAYBE 3 meals coming in for the week. haha it's hard to be healthy grocery shopping when many days you have to make 3 meals. p90x and knitting? well we are keeping pretty diligent and so i'm too tired to do those things! but don't worry i'm still applying many good things in my life continually! i've been writing in my journal still and my comp and i work continually to self-improve. we are working hard to increase in diligence, obedience, and faith. 3 keys to success!

you chatted with annie's mom? haha that's fun. i didn't really know that you had ever communicated. annie sent me a christmas package! haha yeah she's a little late but Christmas in August is still cool. she made a stocking that was a missionary! haha it was a shirt, tie and tag. stuffed with candy! and i was TRYING to eat healthy! but man. when you just place candy in front of me...

well i gave dad some details of the visit with dev and kat. like i told him we just ate, talked and enjoyed our few moments together. i really enjoyed it. but i was explainging to dad that i couldn't think of what to say cuz i was just happy he was there! i really enjoyed the company of my new sis-in-law too. haha i really wanted her to step outside her comfort zone though. i'm not sure how she appreciated it... haha i took them out to eat at authentic mexican places, and i had them stay with a mexican couple that hardly spoke english and iwasn't able to be there to introduce them. Kat wanted to stay in a hotel but i insisted that they didn't. hahaha i think the mission has REALLY taught me to step outside my comfort zone and try new things. i'm not sure if i told you but recently when we went out to eat i voluntarily ordered cow tongue. i think i said that last week... but i like tryin new things.

anyways, it was a great visit. i can't wait to get home and visit with all of you!!!

but i still have 6 months left. it's going to go by FAST so i'm trying to enjoy every moment of it and work hard. it's gonna fly by, but it's plenty of time for me to have a great influence and do a lot of good work in the mission field. we have been finding like crazy. however we are filtering trhough many of them because we are striving to find the Lords elect! it's a fun quest.

i love ya. guess what?? i'm going to be ordering some pictures today so within the next week you should be getting some k? love ya'll.
