Hola Familia and friends! This week was hard but it ended really well. We had a lot of failed appointments and we got our laps in this week, but at the end Blanca Casteñeda said she wanted to get baptized. So, this Tuesday we will have another baptism this month. We are happy. Tuesday is my comps birthday too, so he is pretty excited. In the district for the month of April as it stands right now we will have more success than any other zone in the mission. Not bad for the less successful district in the history of the mission. I'm pretty stoked. In March we had a great month as well. I'm just enjoying the mission. Well my trunky paper got here. That was a sick joke. I don't want to go home. I think I'm going to ask President Richardson if I can extend for about a year. I hope he says yes. We have full things lined up in April as well so it's going to fly by. I'm worried that my time is coming. I don't want to accept it, but man, that blasted letter made it hard haha. My son Elder Quispe is awesome. He and I get along super well. We are doing some great work over here as well. We are hoping for a good month in April. So, in my area we have what is called "wawki Swag." Wawki is brother in Kichwa, A wawki typically is an older guy that wears a poncho, white pants, sandals and a cool lookin hat and they are the coolest people in the world. I love the people here more than any other in the mission. Well we were at church yesterday and here in Ecuador they use the word "brother" in English as slang for like Bro or to a good friend. They say Hola Mi Brother. Well yesterday a church a wawki said Hola Nukachink Brother. Or Hello our brother. He used all three languages in one sentence haha. I about died laughing when I heard it because it was the wawki that we call Mcjagger. He's got lots of wawki swag haha. It was the coolest thing ever. I doubt you ll appreciate it like I do, but it was funny haha. The Wawki that we call the Black Mamba, he's our secret weapon. Says it a lot as well. I wish you guys could meet this people to appreciate it like I do haha. It's awesome out here. It's going to be hard to walk out of this sector. But for now the work is going forward and the idea is to keep it that way. I love you guys. I'll talk to you next week. Kayakaman!

Hello Easton!!!!! Time is getting short , huh? Sorry we haven't written a lot but we sure have thought about you tons. We are very proud of you and the great missionary you've been. We are excited to welcome you back in June. Keep up the great work. We actually have started remodeling our bedroom and bathroom this year. We might even be done with it when you get back. Some of my grand kids ask if Uncle Easton is going to be here when they visit. They are disappointed when I tell them "not yet", We found some elk sheds on the farm a couple weeks ago. It was fun. We were out 4 wheeling when we found them. We love you.
