I wanted to fill you all in on Elder Carter's status. He was transferred this last week to a little town called Abasolo, Mexico. He was in Poza Rica for the first 4 months of his mission which is at the complete other end of his mission. He had to take a nine hour bus ride to get to Abasolo!!! There are only about 15 to 20 members in the branch there so I am sure that he will speaking in church quite often. . . so he is really going to be thrown into the fire now. He kind of lucked out with his last comp. because he could speak English so they always spoke English in the apt. But his new comp. doesn't speak any English so I am sure it will be an interesting experience for both of them. There is only one paved road in the whole town and he will have to hand wash his clothes (that's a scary thought). I am a little nervous for him but Mike says those are the best places to be for missionaries so I am trusting him on that one. . . Thanks to all of you who have expressed interest in my up and coming photography business... It is going quite well, I even have my first wedding booked! It's just a small wedding (thank goodness) but a wedding nonetheless! I am loving it! I will be making a seperate blog for Bella Photo Treasures soon so I can post my work there instead of here. . . I guess that's about it for now . . . A few more changes in the works but I can't say what yet. .. so I will have to leave you hanging on that one!

That is how it was for me in my mission, my trainer and I talked english and my 2nd companion was native to Chile. It was a blessing at that point to be completely immersed in the language, frustrating, but a blessing none the less!! I am glad he is doing so well. The mission is so awesome!!
