All is Well

Hey

Well everything is going well over here. Vatalee got ordained a priest yesterday so that was awesome. There is so much priesthood in this branch compared to Nikolaev. So that was cool. Vitalee was probably as golden as people come. We taught him 6 weeks before he was baptized. The thing that got Vatlee though was a cartoon thing from the kids section in the liahona about Joseph Smith knowing he was going to die but still went to Carthage. That is what gave him his testimony about that You can see the difference in his countance and how he acts since we first met us. Ukraine is just crazy about being loved and stuff or even being helped. I asked some guy if he wanted help carrying a stroller and he freaked out at me but they all do that so i dont really care anymore. I thought Michael was getting his license? Is Brents business just the ones in Vegas and Salt Lake? One of the things i miss the most is just being able to hang out with kids and not being rushed all of the time. The other is probably sports. But you are two just figured that was a given. We have a frig. Our apartment is about the same as the one in nikolaev. I hope i can go back there someday. The biggest difference is probably the people. Here they are nice and there they were cool if that makes sense.The YSA thing is going alright. The members pretty much ruined it though because they are crazy here. All the members think that the church is theirs. Alot of drama goes on around here. There are suppose to be 2 baptisms this week from the sisters but i dont know if that is going to go through or not. Transfers were last week so i am here still. I will probably be here for a while i think anyways. I got two packages last week. Thanks for those. Grandma Hukill as well. They are awesome. The sports thing were awesome to get as well. That is crazy the coach never punted. The talk by Don is good. Well all is well here. Nothing new really. Oh yea tell Bree to read the feb 08 ensign about dating. :)

Love you guys.

Yes, A BAPTISM

Hey,

Well another week gone and a new month started. Last week was awesome and Vatalee got baptized on saturday and confirmed on Sunday. Elder Carter baptized him and i did the confirmation. It was the scariest thing i have ever done. But it was by far the best weekend of my mission and possible my life. Seeing him come out of the water was awesome. He is so cool and will be an awesome member. I dont need that book. Haha i hope i am not a beginner because i have been out in country for 7 months. Plus that Modern Russian is coming and going to be good. Thanks for the money Kay and grandpa and the package grandma Staheli and Hukill. You guys are awesome and my new ties look sweet. :) Mom if you want me to get that package you need to send it today or tomrrow. If not then i probably wont get it until April. FYI. But any food things like can be made in like 5 minutes or whatever. Just know i apprecitate everything that is sent. The weather here is fetching cold. It changes so fast from warm to cold. We almost had to do the baptism in the river but they sent us a Portable Baptismal Font. It was cool. Our cook lady only comes on tuesdays and she is a member. She just cooks a ton of food so it last for a while. But yes punching those kids was crazy. It was pretty much instinct. Haha i kind of felt like jason bourne because i blocked one and dodge another than punched. Haha crazy. Who is Casey? Teenagers here are probably the most worthless people in the world to be honest with you. They dont work and just drink and smoke. They bug the crap out of me. Vitalee though works at a factory and the other guy doesnt work. Vatalee says he has his job because he is the best checkers player though. Its so funny. Well life goes on. New Transfer starts this week on thursday. I am still with Elder Steadman. Well family love you. Thanks for everything. See ya.Elder Hukill
