You know when I read the Fab 4 nini this month i realized how much my english is gone. And ya I really do try every month to read my email and make sure that it is not that bad and wow sometimes its bad. Anyways though I wanted to tell you I adopted two little girls here and I want to bring them home. Ha one is my Branch Pres. daughter and the other is his niece. Well I love them and I gave them nicknames too. One is baby girl and the other is sama baby. Pretty nice ya. I'll send you pics when I can, today I forgot my cord. But at least I got Sister Hall to send you some. She is awesome by the ways. You should thank her for me she bakes me cakes and banana bread. How awesome is that! You know it seems I'm getting alot of moms over here. But don't worry mom no one can ever replace you.

So ya I'm still here in the Hills. My new comp Elder Patten is coming Thursday. I have not meet him yet. But you know he is my killer. He is my last comp. Kinda weird to think ya? Anyways though I'm gonna miss Elder Mpahlele the guy is awesome. And he was a freaking sweet comp. But ya I'll have to let you know how Elder Patten is. And ya they are giving me a American again. That's only my second white comp. Its always weird to have a white comp. But should be okay. Elder Smedley tells me he is a sweetheart. So its should be good. Mom has already done her research on him. Which I think is kinda funny she knows more about him than I do. Ha I cant wait to see the reaction of my new comp. This place in not like the place he is now serving at all. This is his second area and he is going to be in a little shock. Ha he is in Nairobi now. I want to call him and tell him to take all luxury's that are there with him cause there not here. Ha he is going to learn the real mission. The jungle/bush/mountains. You know we have monkeys here by the ways. People here have dogs to protect their crops at night. Monkeys sometimes like to come down and make a mess of them. So they have dogs to kill them if they try.

So ya imagine we are doing Thanksgiving today. I hope all of you enjoy your turkey Thanksgiving for us we are going to enjoy a chicken Thanksgiving. Turkeys are freaking expensive here. But we bought 4 chickens so should be quite a nice dinner. Chickens chapattys, beans and veggies. Sis Hall was going to bake us a cake for it too. So ya should be good. We don't have Thanksgiving with the couples they do their own thing. So us we are doing ours. We are having it at Presidents house so should be pretty fun and I'm pretty excited for it. So ya the reason we are doing it early is we are kinda making it a going away party for my comp as he leaves tomorrow. He is going to my first area by the ways. You have no idea how jealous I was when I heard. I would kill to go back.

So by the ways I got a call from President B. yesterday. He asked me if I was exited to go to Florida and when I wanted to go home. I told him whenever was good. He was talking about maybe me going with the Nevins and maybe 2 or 3 weeks early. He told me he wanted me to have plenty of time to adjust to things. And that he didn't want me to jump on one plane to the next. Which is pretty cool of him. Ha he asked me if I was going to wear any cheerleading skirts. Ha made me laugh. Anyways though ya just have to wait for Sis Nevin. It all kinda suprised me and made me kinda freak out a little. So ya he said I'll know exactly when I'm leavin in the coming weeks. So ya get ready for me I'm coming sooner than everyone thought and in plenty of time before Florida. Pretty cool I think. I'm going to make more of the basketball season than I thought.

Regarding the picture in the Church News of the conference ya the nice chapel is Upperhill chapel my third area. And if it was full of missionaries then ya I was probably there. And that could very likely by me. But ya save it and ill tell you when I come home.

Anyways I'm still enjoying the hills. And we have another baptism coming up in a couple of weeks. By the ways the baptism on Saturday was sweet. You know the guy who was baptized had a son serving a mission. He told me how happy his son was going to be when he heard that he was baptized. Kinda cool. I can only imagine. Buts ya I keep you posted on him. The guy is awesome. And sawa I'll try and bring my guitar home. you know I'm learning alot of that thing. Sometimes there is not alot to do here so I just play it alot.

I gotta run for this week I'll talk to you next week. Tell everyone hi for me.

Love Matt
