Hey guyss!
Well whatsup
over there stateside? Lots of heat??
Costa Rica
has been really messing up my bearings with seasons. Down here, it's
technically "winter" where it's a little bit colder and rainier so
they call it Winter.. And then I get confused when people send me pictures from
the states and it's all summer-y haha until I remember that Costa Rica is kinda
weird that way.
Well this
week was SICK because we finally got Manuel hitched! It's been more than
3 months working with them and it all came together this Saturday! Funny/Ironic
because everyone back home seems to be getting married too... hahaha but yeah, it
turned out really good. My musical number went well except that I came
singing an OCTAVE higher than I had planned (yup, I was nervous) so I had a
cool falsetto version of the hymn. Also, the lawyer who did the wedding was a
really really good friend of mine in Alajuelita (my first area) so I was super
stoked to get to see him. He's the one with the beard. Good stuff!

Well, I'm
getting skinnier again because my stomach hates me for some reason! Not sure
what it is, so I'm sticking with fruits and veggies. More good stuff!
haha
This week
coming up is Semana de Milagros (before it was sacrifice - it's still the same
thing haha) so we'll see how it goes. Pretty excited for my District - we're
gonna kill it.
Special
shoutout to my bro Dillbean for graduating from good old Glencoe! Headed to BYU
too here soon! Proud of you man! Keep that Stott name clean and tear it up!
Also, today
is P-day so that calls for good P-day socks. I Love Stance socks.
Well, thanks
for everything guys! Thank you for the prayers, the love, and everything.
So, sometimes,
here in the mission, you feel like you're not very good, or you're not doing
much, or you even begin to doubt why you're out in the first place. Even though
those thoughts pass through every missionary's mind (including mine) I just want
you to know that I LOVE what I'm doing. I used to feel like I'm
missing out on stuff at home. And it is true that I miss everyone, but at the same
time, I couldn't be more thankful to be out here. I love my mission, I love
Costa Rica and I love my Savior.
Pura vida!
The church is true guys!
