Helllllloooooo people of the outside world! Man this week has been awesome! The spirit here in the MTC is awesome! No matter where you look you can see the love our Father in Heaven has for each and every one of us! In class we are learning spanish 100% of the time so far. Our Maestros (teachers) only speak spanish in class which makes it hard to get what is going on, but the gift of tongues is REAL brothers and sisters. I have been able to understand just about everything that is going on, but I just don’t know how to say anything back in spanish since my vocabulary is pretty weak. I keep practicing, but hopefully it’ll come soon! Tonight is my first lesson in spanish, and I am kinda freaking out! I know it’ll be awesome though as long as I let the spirit guide me in the lesson. 

Well the first day was basically a blur; everything happened so fast I didn’t even have time to think about what was going on. I was kinda in awe the whole time, but we then went and taught some “investigators” which was fun since it was in a huge group of people in my shoes, and it was totally in english so I liked that. We then had dinner which was good since we can eat/drink all the food/drinks we want. I had a great time adjusting with the help of the awesome Elders in my district. We are all pretty close and do everything together; it’s almost like I have 4 other companions. 

Yesterday and today went by super fast since we worked super hard on language study yesterday. Luckily we had our p-day on friday, so all day has been really nice to unwind from the stress of everything. I ran which was nice since I haven’t in such a long time. All in all this has been an awesome experience and I am just loving it! I don’t have too much to write about today since I have only been here for 3 days, but next week I am sure I will have much more to talk about. I love you all and I know this church is true!

February 17, 2016 (Josh)

We realized tonight that we never posted Josh’s pictures when he entered the MTC.  Let me just say we shed some tears tonight thinking about how long its been since we’ve seen our boy, and thinking about how long it will be before we see Tyler again.  This is the greatest, toughest thing in the world!!!  🙂
