Week 4!!

 Всем привет дорогие друзья и члены семьи!!

  I don't know what I can start from...I will start with my last day to being in COLORADO! In love with this state. So on August 26th I said goodbye to my fam at airport. It was sad to leave them. Sad to leave my friends and people who I know. Miss you all guys! So on the way to security I was thinking:  " Dang, it's getting real " I wasn't afraid, I was excited! Excited to go. Excited,  because in my decision to go and serve the Lord , I finally be able to do that.
   We go a little back at the time right now. 3 days before I started my MTC I reserve the email form my mission president where I find out that I will go to Croatia for to weeks to quarantine with other Baltic missionaries and that I will have a companion. I was very excited to finally meet my companion and rest of the missionaries. I thought it would be amazing.
  So go through the security I finally set on the plane. Looking at the small window I still continue to thinking " It's getting real". Maaan I felt great because I was very excited.
[  ]   Plane finally start moving and I ( trying to not yell at loud in front of all people) said quietly to my self " LET'S GOOOOOOI! "  Then plane is took of from the lane and I start feeling something strange happens to me , feels like something touched me inside, I knew it was Lord's hand. And all the flight I felt amazing.
            Bang! We landed in Texas! Sick! I was excited arrive to the Huston. I got of from my plane and just start wondering all around airport looking for my Gate. It took me 10-15 minutes. When I saw my Gate I got even more excited , because I'm 25% present done till I will arrive to final point. By wondering and running at airport I got hungry. I got my food , I sat down and start eating. 20 minutes later I SAW A GROUP OF BALTICMISSIONARIES. And then I got even more excited than I was excited. I finally see them. We just talked with each other,  ate together and them walking together with the big group to our gate.
  So now we chilling in Croatia.  So fun , we got so close together love them all .
We had so much fun together. We have been out from hotel to go on the walks together. We also went on a trips to the castle and waterfall park. Thank members of the church and President and his wife for this!
Study with my companions Eldet Boggess and Eldet Nybo is very cool and spiritual. We got chance to share room together where we can study together,  pray together and have fun together. Other Elders ond Sisters got so close to me for a 10 days that we spend together. Sister Steelman ( soccer girl, very fun and friendly) ,Sister Davis ( swimmer , very cool and also friendly) , Sister Atakuzi ( very nice and also friendly) Elder Wahlin ( 6" 9" , talented, great man ) Elder Stegelmeier ( farmer , amazing supporter ) about my companions you will hear on the long note sometime is future. Love them all and greatful to have then here with me . Now we have 4 days left where after that we will fly to Riga , meet a president and his wife. Very excited. Great events will be happening in the future and a lot of blessings will come.

Love you all❤❤
