Week Fifty Three

Hi Mom!

This week was tough because of Elder Serrano´s sickness, and I have a ton of meetings and interviews to do this week (including a girl in our area who´s going to be baptized!) so this week won´t be any less crazy.

Next week, too; we´re going to the temple, I think I´m going to do a division with the elders in my district and with the zone leaders, and we have a zone conference! It´s crazy to think about how much busier my life just got, but so far, so good. I´ll see how much I can handle I guess.

I´m glad you´re relaxing, and I hope you can make it a tradition, too! I think that´d be cool for you guys, because I know you made a lot of sacrifices for us while we were growing up. Now, you deserve to relax.

We had a district activity today that took a long time, but it was super fun. Sister Alves turned 23 today, so we made lunch for her, and one of the members of her ward made a cake for her! We made like a ramen type thing with a bunch of meat and veggies, which took a while but was super good. I´ve taken a break from baking, it takes a lot of time, which is now a rarity for me. But it was fun to cook again, and I´m going to make spaghetti and meatballs tonight, and burgers tomorrow. Lots of cooking, and then lots of meetings again! It was really fun.

I love you so much. Happy Birthday to you too, by the way! Sorry I forgot last week.
Love you!!!!!!
Love, Eric



Hi Dad!

Hope all´s awesome on the beach, and that you catch a bunch of crab too. I hope you guys can really make a tradition out of that, because that´d be really fun, I think. That would be cool to hit the beach right as I get home, huh? That´s a ways off though, for sure.

I love you Dad, and hope you´re enjoying your vacation! Eat an extra crab for me, OK? Love you!!!!!

Love, Eric
