Ok I'm gonna write everyone on this so please pay attention to your names if your family, and to the 'World' if you are like family, haha!
Momma,
I'm glad that people liked that story of Laura last week because it was absolutely fantastic!:) We got to go to the temple today and I did great at the Spanish and I even was told my accent was great!!!:) Its great to hear in the heart of Mexico City, but then I realized that Hondurans speaks about twice as fast as Mexicans hahah... It's ok though, I'm prepared to be humbled! SO I TOOK A VIDEO LAST NIGHT WITH MY NEW CAMERA! It was of our night of fun BUT the ccm computers don't let you send videos so that's not exciting but I'll send it next week! I did get the package!!!! I was so happy because Elder Best gets at least two HAND WRITTEN LETTERS FROM HIS FAMILY every other day so it was nice to get a package because he hasn't gotten one of those yet! :D Actually it was great... I'm already using the oils and what not that has seemed to taken over all the healthy minded sisters in our stake!! :) I have used Peppermint so far and Lavender for many things and whenever I'm tired and need a boost, I smell the lemon, haha! And I did read all that you gave me... out loud too...even to my district because they didn't believe me that this stuff had any biblical aka Factual background :) I LOVE YOU MOM! Thanks for all of it! Protein bars and Skittles, doesn't get much better than that!
DAD
Don't be brief, I can read faster or at least I'll try!!! But I hope that the birthday party for Mom and Mackenna was great!! I'm sure that you all are down about the U of U vs BYU game... we are too :( its a dang shame that BYU is so on and off from week to week but thats ok!!!!!!!! The atonement is real and they better humble themselves and win next week im sick of these sloppy past couple years! Anyways dad I love you lots and I keep on having amazing experiences with investigators! We had our last lesson with Feliciano and me and Best bore our tesimonies about the Lord and how we have seen a change in his life because of the Savior. Then the prayer was awesome, Feliciano was so thankful and so were we!!

Hey you better win in your game Thursday! BYU let us down this week, I'm planning on you pickin' the Mormon nation up... haha!!! I'm just kidding kiddo, but play with your heart, pound to the ground and scream till your red in the face... I'm kidding again but honestly, please, do your best and WIN! haha! I love you T, and all the fam. I miss you guys so much! I know you are all workin hard just like the boys are out here. TJ wrote me in Spanish! OH WOW! And that was rough reading, haha, but that's just cause at the temple everything is just spat at you in Spanish so I'm Spanished out for today but I'm really just a little tired, where's those oils haha! So talk to me girlie...How's life T, how's school... boyyyyyyyyyyssssssss????? I need names and addresses and preferably pictures so I can really feel like I'm talking to him/them face to face when I'm writing heartfelt letters about my wittle sista! Ya, I'll be nice, sorta, kinda, maybe, promise.
WORLD
HOWS LIFE? Elder Mastergeorge left and it was so nice to be with him! Wow, he has grown so much! It's incredible what the ccm does to little boys :) I hope it has happened to me as well! I think my Spanish is getting better, haha but again its Mexico not Honduras... language is pretty rough there I here. In devotional on Sunday we had Elder Scott talk to us about prayer, it was crazy how much I needed that!! I had been praying for looonnnggg periods of time and just wasn't connecting or getting the answer. Elder Scott said that prayers are meant to help us grow and if God wants us to grow by doing more than just talking. If he wants us to talk and DO, then that's what we all have to do as well. In that moment I burst into tears because I got an answer and the rest of the talk was music to my ears! If ANYONE has troubles with praying to our Father who wants nothing but the best for us please read Doctrine & Covenants 6, 8 and 9 (talk to my mom and dad if you need to borrow this book of scripture.) They all spoke to me and I know that this mission is much longer than two years. Yes, I have been set apart to go to a distant place but at home we are always missionaries, don't forget your influence or example to others! Its time to go but I so love you all! Have an amazing week!
(Elder Scott as an answer to prayer made the letters ending mean even more:)
Get off your booty, get on your knees, get to your feet and DO!
Love,
Elder Toolson
