But yeah, everything is going well!

Hey Mom, 

OK, so, Erwin will be coming in at Terminal __________ His flight number _____. If you have any problems, you can look up his flight on the _____________ website and his reservation number is _________"_I think that is all it asks for. You should think after dealing with that for four and a half months I would remember! Ha ha! But I'm not sure. I think that should be all the information you need anyway... 

I'm sure that you can take him to get something if you want. He doesn't have to be in the MTC until Tuesday but they said because of his flight they will accept him at any time on Monday. I haven't talked to him about it though so if you want I can let him know that you are going to take him to dinner...

So for p-day we played a little bIt of soccer today but not a ton. We played weird Latino around the world today for a lot of the time. I kicked some trash! haha. It is like around the world, like with a basketball ya know? But with different rules.

But yeah, everything is going well. We are kinda having a tough little while with the zone, but it's OK. It is just hard to keep everyone working. It is incredible really how things work. Idk, it is just at the beginning of my change here we saw huge progress, now it is just like everyone just burned out and is not working. We are trying super hard but idk....we'll figure it out though. But everything is OK. 

So what do you want to know about my area? and where is this chemical waste area?......Oh....So, I've got some good news and some bad news.....the good new is, I loved your advice, and I love you!!!! The bad news is, after looking at those coordinates of the chemical thing....they are the borders of my area. Hahahahahahahaha

Well, mom you asked me about my area and stuff, but idk what to say about it. haha Next week I will try and take some pictures of our house and send them. But, out of all the houses I know in the capital (and I know a whole lot!) I think it is definitely the best other then the office house. That one is incredible. The only think we have to do is get a new water heater because before I got here it broke and we still havent fixed it so we just shower with cold water haha. 

Well that sounds fun.......You and Abby..... oh boy! Now we're gonna have two of you!!!! Ha ha ha! How are things going

Oh and I just read about Tay's text....yea...that question definitely could have been worded a little better. Hahaha that is hilarious. 

So are bryan and whittney coming up like right now? or what?

I love you! bye!

Elder Welch

And this is to Abby—

How the heck are you doin Bagabsta?! And tell Bryan and Grant hi!

Oh and...........HAPPY FREAKIN BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!! Little miss fourteen-year-old! I love you!

Hade

alright, so, the first two are of me and elder Velasquez on a surprize visit we made to some elders in an area called Durazno to eat breakfast and study with them and stuff.

 It was a super good day. And the next is of Elder Velasquez and I at the front door of the temple when we went as a zone and the other three are of concilio. I will send some more of concilio too

Same generous Hade!

HI, 


So— I am not up to much today. I just got done playin some serious soccer all morning. I'm wiped! But we won! So it's OK! Ha ha! 


So, before I forget, how much money do I have in my personal account.......that is actually mine though. I might ask you to do me a favor. Well here's the deal. You know E. right? The kid that you are going to pick up from the airport? Well I love that kid!  I asked him if he still needed anything for his mission and he said that he still needs to find a pair of dress shoes. So I was wondering if maybe you could take some of my money and go buy him a pair of Eccos to give him when you pick him up. I don't even remember how much they were but if I don't have enough I will pay you back when I get home. This kid is such a stud. I really wanna help him! Would that be something you could do? OK, so, I don't know what kind, just nice black ones like mine if you remember. Just ask them which are the best and that don't split at the sides and which sole will wear the best. He wears a size 41. Don't worry, I'm not crazy. Ecco works in European sizes. And we got mine at the University Mall. I got one pair at Nordstrom and one at Mr. Mac. You'll probably just have to see which one has the best prices. I'm not sure about anything else he might need. I'm sure some gold toe socks while your there at Mr. Mac wouldn't hurt. But If you do just get some black ones cuz I think that's all he's got to match with. But idk. Whatever your heart tells you would be nice. Ha ha ha ha! And about the flight, I don't have the information right now. Sorry, I definitely dropped the ball on that one. I didn't even think about it. But I will look at his papers to make sure and either let you know next week or I will have him call you or something. And—yeah he does. He works in a call center and speaks super good English. 


Alright, as for the room. Ha ha! No! I am totally fine with it! I want to change it anyway. I would have never left all that junk up there anyway. At least not the Lexi junk! And don't worry about fixing it up when I get home. I can do it. It will be fun. Put everything in a box. Posters, pictures, everything and just stick it somewhere. I'll go through it and see how much I chuck when I get home and go ahead and paint it however. Please do leave the Across the Universe Strawberry though. That I definitely want to finish sometime. And I figure, other than that I can buy paint and repaint it if I want when I get home anyway...right now, I don't really care to be honest.  I'm going to be able to do so many things I want to do when I get home, and do them right and be happy that I don't even care! Make it a great home just how they want it. Even if they're only going to be there for a week.


Oh and by the way, I am almost 3/4's the way done thank you very much! Ha ha ha! I almost have 18 months! If I was a sister missionary I would have my ticket bought and everything! Now that's old!!! 


And dad, I think I will have to help you figure out new teaching techniques with your iPad when I get home too!  At least a week with it I think would be good so that I could get to know it and then we can collaborate! Ha ha! 


Alright, I've gotta go. We have to go buy groceries and then like half the zone is going to come to our house and we are going to order McDonalds delivery. And yes, they deliver here! Crazy huh? Oh and concilio is tomorrow! WOOO HOOOO! I am so excited! I get to go see President and Sister Watts! and of course eat some of Sister Watts good cooking! It will be good. My first zone leader conference as a zone leader. (All of the others I was the office guy.) So that will be different! But the food will be the same and I can not wait! So I will for sure have some pictures to send to you next week! 


Sorry I did not have time to tell you more about the work...things are good! I will tell you more next week!


I love you all so much! I hope everything works out with B and W's move and everything and that it all works out in the best way possible for everyone. LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Con amor,
Elder Welch


Oh yeah, and for the extra space in the package, just whatever. You know me—I'm easy to please! Ha ha! Love ya Mom! You're the BEST!!!!!!
