Hola hola hola a todos! This has been another big aand fun week with some great memories! The assistents went to the north and I had to give them soem cash, but my cash flow was on the low side. Luckily I had enough that I could give them and then I started to do a reimbursement! I also went through and did a bunch of reimbursements so that I could get it down lower so that I could pull out more. I knew that I would have some future payments to make as well, but I knew that I could do it all! But it was the lowest that I think maybe the cash flow has gotten! haha It was kinda fun! I also went through and this special paper that was so hard to find last week, well turns out I got the wrong stuff last week and I had to go get it changed again! haha but now we are all well and we are ready to give all the necessary stuff to the misionaries who are going home. We also had to get ready for President Gillespies last conferences this week. They all went so well! I heard in the North they presented the plack that we all put in to buy for him and it turned out great! Hermana Gillespie was still teary eyed about it in the last conference. Wednesday Elder Young and I got to go shopping with Hermana Gillespie so that we can know what to do for the conference food once the Kahnlein family gets here. That actually was kinda fun! Its crazy to have to buy 2 carts worth of food, but it was fun, and in the end Hermana Gillespie said that we could both pick out a treat! haha Made me think of shopping with grandma marvin as a kid! We always got treats then too! haha Then friday we had our last conference with president and it all went well! It was a pretty short conference, but in the end he went through personally said goodbye with his wife to every single one of the missionaries. That was really cool! And when they were giving their talks and everything it was really carzy! He gave a small bio on the new president and they showed us a picture of their family. Their two oldest boys are the age of Brody and Briggs and then they have 2 more little ones that are younger. And as hard as it is to think that they will have to replace the gillespies, I couldn´t help but think "Man, they are a happy family." It was a really cool moment and to think that I will be losing one of the best mission presidents and receiving another one all on my birthday! Happy birthday to me! haha It was awesome! Then this morning we took a hand saw and we went and did service for one of our investigators. It was a long job because we had to cut aoubt 10 ft with a hand saw and its hard to stay straight with that, but it all went well! haha Oh, and yesterday I got my birthday package and also 3 letters all at the same time! haha It was an awesome early birthday for me! haha ya, I didnt wait... but igual! haha I was too excited after reading the letters and my box was wet too, so I had to make sure that all would be well with what was inside! and I must admit, I was confused seeing a camoflage hat on top. I dont wear hats that often... then I realized it says "Redhead" on the front and it all clicked into place! ;P hehe What a great hat! haha Thanks to everyone, and remember to send some love to all your dads! I LOVE YOU DAD!!! Loves to all, Elder Marvin
