Hes cool the only thing that i dont like is that he always has to be right...

Did your president put that rule...if pdays fall on holidays you work? because the people are home and are more available? Or because he doesn't want you partying too?

yup cuz Familys are at home and DRUNK and unaccecable 

How many other missionaries had baptism pictures? 

Like 30 from the zones that were there

 I LOVE the pictures you sent me...is the last one your companion?  Remind how long he has?  I like his first name alot.  YOU look fantastic!
