Hello all!

Well, tomorrow is my 6 month mark! 1/4. Crazy. How time flies!
I'll enjoy burning a tie tomorrow in celebration.

Another week here from Weslaco. Not a whole lot has changed.
However, it sounds like people want to hear more about my
personal life as a missionary... So, I'll see what I can do here.

I am doing really well. I'm getting more and more bald every
day, but hey, that's ok. I took a video on my apartment a while
ago, and will send that as soon as I get the rest of the SD card
filled up.

My schedule hasn't really changed. I wake up at 6:30,
exercise...usually consists of a little stretching and laying down
and stretching. Not usually too productive. After that I eat and
shower. Then we have personal study for an hour,
companionship study for an hour, and then Spanish study for
an hour. After that it's out to work for a while, then we come
in and have lunch. After that we go out and tract/teach until
9 pm, come in, plan, and then go to bed. Nothing super exciting.

So, my companion is awesome. We've become pretty good
friends. He goes home next week. Crazy! He's pretty excited.
I'll definitely miss him.

So, Dad, in response to your question, I see your friend's sister
and husband weekly. They're in the ward where I'm at.

I play the organ every week at church, and occasionally get to
teach the Gospel Principles class, or sometimes even other
classes like primary, or the like.

Congratulations to Melodie and Jason! That's very exciting
news! I'm going to have so many new nephews and nieces to
meet. I forget how many there are. 23 I think, and there's
2 people pregnant now, right? Who knows...

Yes, mom, that Eric Whitacre CD you can put with my other
CD's as well. Also, I'll be sending that letter to you this week
most likely. (P-day is always short...)

We should be having 2 baptisms this Saturday. Brittany and
Bridgette will be getting baptized. We're super excited for
them. It's remarkable to be a part of this marvelous work.

Well, I love you all, take care.
Con amor,
Elder Meservy
