Hey guys!
Today is transfers. Saturday we found out if we were leaving or not and you guessed it! I'm staying in ol Baytown for another transfer....Six months here. That means you could send packages and stuff too. Would be happy to receive them. My pancakes are really good because I add special ingredients. I still hate normal pancakes though so no worries mom.
My week was good it was the last week of the transfer so not much happened. Monday we bowled as usual. I didn't do very well this time for some reason. After we played some volleyball and chilled at the church.
The rest of the week wasn't exciting really. Elder Carter and I had lots of fun just nothing really nothing of note. We met some people that were cool, but all of their appointments fell through this week so we were not able to visit them again. We talked to this lady from Peru, but she's leaving to Peru for the rest of the summer.
We ate lots of Ramen this week because we are out of money. Carter got a package and it was full of fourth of July decorations so we put those up. We went on exchanges this week again. I was with Elder Nebeker in his area. It was really fun. We did service at a ladies house and she fed us breakfast. We then pulled weeds and fixed up her backyard in 95 degree weather. With the humidity it felt like about 105. It was really hot and right when we got outside we just poured sweat. It was crazy.
That's pretty much it. Hope yall have a good week!

Pancake Master
Hello!
I am doing pretty good here. My week was good it went smooth and flew by. We have been able to find people just fine but no one solid yet. It'll be cool getting a new president but Drake was a really good guy and really nice. I'll miss having him around.
Transfers are next week. I think I will leave. Or at least I hope I leave. I don't think I can stay another one out here.
Last Monday we had some fun! We went bowling that morning.
Tuesday I made lunch for the other Elders and dinner for the Hermanas. You should be proud for my growing culinary skills, I am the only one who cooks for everybody. I grill burgers, make bomb pancakes, other breakfast foods, etc. And I will say my pancakes are the best. Add all sorts of secret ingredients. We had a lesson with a lady named Nancy, but found out she was going on vacation till August so that was a bummer.
Wednesday we were on exchanges with the zone leaders. Elder Martinez came with Elder Carter and I. He is awesome! I've known him my whole mission and he became ZL this transfer. It is also his last one so he goes home next week. We talked and talked about all sorts of stuff. Lost precious sleep haha. The day was good we ate with the other Elders and Elder Stucki at Johnny Carinos. It is kind of a ZL exchange tradition with them. We contacted a ton of people and it was great! We got slushes too because it was super hot that day!
Thursday we didn't do too much, but we were able to eat with the Hernandez family. They are so nice and so fun. We always talk to Hermano Hernandez about stars and pyramids. That night we went to
mutual and played basketball with the young men. That was a fun time!
Friday we did service in the morning and helped a lady in the English ward clean out her art classroom. We have helped her for a few weeks but that thing was a mess! She was moving into the room and the old teacher left everything so there was a ton of junk. You could hardly move in there! After that we went to sonic with the Hermanas. They bought us food because they had gift cards. We had district Training that night too. The ZLs came and taught us.
Saturday wasn't very exciting either. I made more pancakes, peanut butter and chocolate ones. They were super good. Good thing I make my pancakes with lots of crazy good ingredients because normal ones are nasty! We ate dinner at brother Manns house. He is in the English ward and really cool. We ate Chinese food. We haven't had that in forever so it was a good change.
Sunday we had church which was good as always. We ate lunch with the Rodriguez family as well. They are so awesome! Hermano Rodriguez always has me laughing! It is so funny when he talks in English too. She is a really good cook too so we were well fed.
My week was good and I am doing just fine! Elder Carter is great and we had an awesome week. Hope yall have a good one! Coming up on ten months so I'll be in the double digits. I'm excited to hit a year! And I will be twenty years old soon too so no more teenagers in the family. That's weird. Well Love yall!

Fruity Pebbles and Zone Conference
This week was really good. It was fast too.
Monday was good, we played lots of basketball and went bowling again. I won once more. Thinking of which I won overall today as well. We bought a lot of groceries and we got a lot of good stuff. Because of that we lived very comfortable this last week. I've gotten addicted to a new cereal... Poor Grandma Marie. She would be disappointed... They are fruity pebbles with Marshmallows! They are so tasty. Sugar bombs, but tasty.
Tuesday we had Zone Conference and I was able to see Elder Riches again! It was soooo awesome! Elder Riches is companions with Elder Johnson, he was in my MTC district! They are great. After Zone Conference we went out to eat with them. It was great to catch up. We were laughing non stop sharing stories of stuff we did together!
The rest of the week we did stuff but I cannot remember! It was a good week though. Sadly our only investigator, Carlos, goes to jail today... He was close to Baptism, but the cops got him first! Too bad.
I'm doing good thanks for everything! Love yall!
