Big Al's Big Mish: Wwwoowww!!!

He still sounds so happy!! I love hearing his spirit grow as he relies on himself and the lord :) What a wonderful example for our family, his friends and soon to be Fresno!!!

Doing selfies at the temple again.

Wwwoowww this week has been pretty crazy!! The main event of the week was Mexican Night. Mexican Night is the celebration of when Mexico declared their independence from Spain September 15, 1810 or 1820 or something. It´s basically like Mexico´s 4th of July. Except here it´s a little bit crazier and sometimes a little bit cooler ;) the way we celebrated it here in the MTC was we had some dancers and singers come and perform for us. The men would throw swords up in the air and do this weird dance. It was one of the sickest things I have ever seen. Sooooo this week I´ve seen more action than I have seen in 6 weeks haha. What Mexico does for Mexican Night is just go nuts, there´s no rules you just basically go do whatever you want and go to parties and make lots of noises. We were hardly able to sleep at all during the night cause the city was hectic! Fireworks going off everywhere. Why don´t we have a go crazy american night?? You guys should have been here to see it, you would have loved it. We also were able to chant with the president of Mexico on live TV "VIVA MEXICO VIVA!!" which means live mexico! On the last night, he waves the flag and everybody in all of mexico chants what he says. It´s pretty sweet.

We also got to go to the Mexico Temple again. I loved it of course. I was kind of sad because it was my last time being there in I don´t know how long. And I took some good pictures too. Unfortunately I wont be able to send pictures this week cause i don´t have someone´s USB chord to use :( but I´ll try and send some next week. The MTC is good as always. I´m really excited to leave though so I can bless the people of Fresno. but I am also going to be really sad to leave the new friends I have made here. Everybody feels the same way as I do. But I don´t blame them. This week is going to go by soooooooooo slow! Haha Because we are all so excited.

I´m So glad to hear about Football! If we don´t beat Uintah at least beat Park city because they drive me nuts too! I´m glad to hear little brother is doing awesome as well. Tell him to keep tearing it up and that I love him and am so proud of him. Wish I played as much varsity ball at his age and got as much playing time as he does as a sophomore. Haha I love hearing about J.T. sounds like he is being himself of course. It kind of got me tearied eyed thinking about him acting the way he does. I love him to death. And it´s weird to think how fast Marleigh is growing up. She´ll be a freshman in highschool when I get back. WHAT??? Ha that´s how weird it is. She´s gonna tear it up in volleyball too. Charleigh and Marleigh growing up is definitely different not watching them grow up. but i´m really happy to hear all is well at home. And tell Justin to keep working hard and that I love him too. Tell the whole Arnold family hi for me. Sounds like Moma misses me alot haha. Just remember how fast the MTC went by and how 2 years will go and it won´t seem to bad. But I miss you guys too, so your not the only one!

The package seems awesome!! I can´t wait to get it! But if you could put some batteries with it too if you could. Other than that i think I´m pretty good :) oh wait send some shampoo and body wash too pretty please. I told Dad to send some batteries so maybe just send the shampoo and stuff. I´ll let you guys decide that. Other than that thank you for everything!!

Well I´ll talk to ya´ll later. Let weston and mar know i got their letter if i don´t get to write them back.

Me Amais! (love you all) BEAT JUDGE!

P.S. I leave next wednesday the 25th at like 3 in the morning and I will call you when I hit Dallas. Hit me up with some numbers in case I don´t get ahold of your phone or something. Or send other peoples numbers too if you´d like.
