I hit another week out here in the island of Tabiteuea and it was another fun one!! Last tuesday they got a turtle that was literally bigger and weighed more than i do. It had a $50 sign on it's belly. haha they bought it and the guy put his child on the belly and he cried. He was so cute and funny. We talked with a lot of unimwane's and unaine's old men and old women. High school just got out for the teenagers here. Me and lomaloma are having so much fun. We went and cut wood for this guy's garden. We made him a sunroof out of like some sticks we tied together with coconut tree leaves and put coconut leaves on it and now it is a shady thing for his cabbages. haha Gardening!!!! hehe

Today is elder hoggan's birthday! which makes me the only teenager left in the house. Only until November though. I don't think that I will be leaving here anytime soon. Should be a few more transfers. Transfers are this week so we should be hearing who is coming out this week or next. We had church on sunday and biked down to church at 10 then had church at 1. Me and my companion both gave talks in church. it was super fun. We found a place that has fanta's and an icebox so now we can get cold fantas!!! so delicious. The members here let us have so much turtle which is super delicious. It's like the kiribati steak! It's kinda rough but it was way cool. There's a way to get the turtle shell home to america so i will have to look into that. Well you can do it legally :D

We had family home evening with the members last week. We had dinner which was fish and rice and then we played games and sang songs. We played musical spoons. same as musical chairs but with spoons. So funny watching all of these big kiribati people bend over as fast as they can to grab some spoons. Didn't get any pictures but we may do it again tonight. We'll see what we can get.

I'm doing great and I hope everything is going good on the homefront. love you all. til next week
