Dear Family,
A full fledged ward in Tatabánya... Hmm... i don`t think they`re ready for that, but a branch would be good. I think they`re going to have to get a new meeting house soon. We`re outgrowing our little Régi Pékség. (Old bakery)
When we tell people we`re from America they usually seem impressed that we would come to Hungary and especially that we would come to Tatabánya. We haven`t had any problems yet though. Except for this one kid who said 'You`re Stupid!!' as we rode by on the bikes, but I think he was just practicing English.
The Hungarian mail system is pretty stable, things just disappear from packages sometimes. The changes are in the mission. That`s why I suggested to wait. Probably wait one more week before sending anything, but I`ll let you know for sure next week.
I`m glad to hear they`re finally making some progress with your job. Hopefully this girl will pass the background and drug tests.
That`s exciting and terrifying that Cami passed her road test. Good luck on getting her license and everything, and I hope she has a fun time in Tennessee too. Oh and good luck to Kevin and Tanja.
That`s good that you got to go down to your reunion. I actually met a girl here from Delta. She`s a foreign exchange student or a study abroad student, I can`t remember which, but she was definitely from Delta.
It sounds like you had an exciting 4th of July. About as exciting as mine anyways. Painting and sanding for you and streeting and tracting for me. You didn`t go to the parade though? Disappointing. I wanted to ask how the marching band is doing, or if they even have one this year. At least you got to watch the fireworks though. I was thinking about Fireworks the other day. Oh well, at least you are making progress on the big project. The house will be legit when I get home, if you finish it by that time anyways. Just kidding.
I`m still doing well. I can understand more everyday. I still don`t speak very well. The food is pretty good. I get a legit Hungarian meal at least once a week with Roz and Ferenc. I do have a Hungarian cookbook, but it`s written in Hungarian, so maybe I`ll translate and you can cook the food. Sound fair?
I`m glad Simba is slowly growing fur again. If his back end doesn`t pick it up we`ll have to make him a kitty-combover, and then he would never forgive you.
I`m glad you still stay in touch with Larissa. I think she would really appreciate a visit and the pictures. Maybe you could go to the Bluebird while shes working. That would be fun.
Nothing really new from me this week. We got the word about transfers this morning. Elder Cheney is going to Miskolc to be Zone leader and I am staying here in Tatabánya. I`m going to be in a threesome. Again. that`ll be weird. But I think it`ll be good. One of the Elders is Elder Hommes who was in the group ahead of me in the MTC, so that`ll be fun to see him again. He was my favorite. I`ve been rearranging my stuff all morning to make room for them. The changes take effect on Wednesday, though, so I still have some time.
This week was kind of strange. Elder Cheney got his Ingrown toenail cut on Thursday, so on Friday we had to rest for the entire day. I read pretty much all day. I`m running out of things to read, which might sound strange, but I`m serious. I finished Jesus the Christ in one transfer, so now I`ve read the entire Missionary library and I finished the Book of Mormon this morning. I guess I`ll just read them all over again.
That`s about all the news from me. Things are going good. One transfer down, 13 or 14 more to go. I love you all. have a good week. Be safe and happy.
