September 5, 2012

holy smokes I´m an uncle. and Katies a mom and Gabes a dad and Mom you and dad Are grandparents!!!!!!!!! holy smokes!!!!!!!!
man do I feel silly now for the letter I sat down and wrote today to Katie. haha I´ll send it anyways. you can read it to savanna. What a great name by the way. Good choice! Wow katie you did it! you now have an angel sent straight from the presence of God the Father in your arms and in your home. how cool is that?! 4 and a half weeks early though. she was ready to get out of there huh? haha. i can´t tell you how happy I am. I look forward to meeting this little person in about a year and a half. Our family is growing. Thanks for the pictures mom Katie and Gabe, you done good. She is beautiful! I love new born babies, so small and cute and gentle. 
here things are rainy. i was unaware a hurricane passed through here. I knew that it is hurricane season right now and that it rained a bunch when it supposedly came through but where i am nothing really happened. 
These last couple months have been nuts: school started, alaskan cruise, new baby, new job! All amazing miracles from our dear Heavenly Father. 
It´s raining pretty hard right now, I have a feeling we´re going to get wet.......

Some things about Las Antillas that I´ve not yet told you: The house we have is really nice and is on the second floor which helps for air circulation and it´s not quite as hot, the house has a more open kitchen than the house in San Francisco which is nice and you sweat quite as much, it has 2 bathrooms which is nice because we each have our own space. The only real problem is that the water pressure stinks so showering out of a bucket has become a daily practice but you have to be sure to fill your bucket up every morning after you shower because if you forget you won´t have any water to shower that night if you want to because we usually don´t have water at night. We almost always have power, occasionally, like today, the power will go out for maybe an hour and then will come back. There have been some real power outages that we´ve needed to have the local power jimmy rigger hook us up with some power for the night because it´s almost impossible to sleep in this country without a fan because it is so dang hot!

Spanish is hard, life is good, the Gospel is true.
