September 17, 2013, at 4:00 A.M., I left the Hansen Home in
Sandy, Utah, for the Salt Lake Airport. I Landed in Mexico City around 1ish
local time, and proceeded to live like a mexican for 6 weeks. I flew into Texas
October 29th, 2013, and met my first companion the next day. I've been through
Denton, Haltom, and now Fort Worth. Apartment fires and Tornados. Bible Bashes
and baptisms. The summer on a bike, and a winter in a car. I've eaten authentic
Mexican, Texas barbecue, and everything in between. In short, it's been a good
year.
We just got back from the temple, my first time in English
in over a year. It was AMAZING. Haha, wow, the temple is such a cool place
haha. I took pictures, but they won't load.
Tomorrow is my year mark, and also we have interviews with
President Ames! It is such a sick week haha! We had a sweet day yesterday and I
am so stoked! In other news, there is no other news.
I love y'all, and sometime around last week I think I
started to miss y'all haha. A year is a long time. But then again, I can't
believe how fast time flies. Or how much I've learned. Haha, it's funny to
think, I only have 1 more of everything. One more Christmas, Halloween, Mother's
day, shark week, Super bowl, and International talk like a pirate day (that one
was pretty rough in spanish (arrrrrgg, mi compa).
Pretty much, I am going downhill now. I feel like an old
guy, especially when I see 18 year old elders that have no idea what they are
doing haha. I had to explain to one elder where cotton came from. I knew 5th
grade U.S. history would come in handy sometime haha (eli whitney and the
cotton gin). Haha, I know I'm still a goober, but I can sit still now and be
patient and wait for things haha.
Anywhey, got to go, but I love y'all. Texas Roolz.
Love,
Cole
