So that will be a cool way to spend my birthday.

Hey guys how is y’alls week going? It looks like there is a lot going on with the summer coming up. I’m getting excited to be able to talk with you guys next Sunday for Mother’s Day!!! What time do y’all have church right now? Congrats to Makenzie for her throwing and Jacob looks pretty studly with that bow tie. I have a bow tie Ill bring home with me and Jacob and I can go to church with bow ties.  

So we were going to have a wedding today but there was a little problem with the birth certificates, they only had copies but they needed the originals so they should have them today. They went on Monday to go apply for them. So it looks like Jose and Isabel will be getting baptized next Saturday, the 12th of May!!!!!!!! So that will be a cool way to spend my birthday. They are doing really well, we went with our Elder's Quorum President to their house last night and we had a good lesson with them.  

Also we are teaching a member's wife that isn’t a member and she now has a desire to get baptized and it is a young couple and the husband is a return missionary so we will get to complete a family! Also Winston is doing really well but his extended family is giving him some heat for going to our church.  

This Sunday we get to give a class to the Ward about how they can participate in the missionary work so that will be good help for us. At least the rain has stopped for the most part and we haven’t had any problems with that this week.  

The photo book is really cool! This week one of the missionaries in our Mission finished his mission and his homecoming ward is my ward so it was weird being at his homecoming party seeing Elder Perez for almost my whole mission and now he is home so it trunked me out a bit but not too much. 

Well I hope that all keeps going well and 11 more days till Mother's Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Take care and have a great week!!! 

Love,

Elder Smith
