| I love these Sister Training Leaders! I am so impressed with their leadership, they are all amazing missionaries and disciples of Christ. |

 |
| Going on the Bus through the streets of Sao Paulo reminded all of us of a roller coaster! |
 |
| Sweet Angela, our first Brasilian friend took us out on the town. We went to a "sheeky" mall in Sao Paulo |
 |
| Fun times on the bus |
 |
| These darling Young Women made us all feel so loved and welcomed today as we visited a ward in Itapetinchinga. So fun to be with 4 of our sweet Sister Missionaries also. |
 |
| We love these amazing Sister Missionaries! |
 |
| We travelled about 3 hours to get to an area in our mission called Capao Bonito, which means beautiful valley. While President Farnes interviewed the Elders here I took the kids for a beautiful afternoon horseback ride. It was so beautiful and it felt so wonderful to get out of the city and breath the fresh air. |
 |
| P-day adventures. Our kids live for P-days. It's one day a week where they have Dads attention for the whole day. On this P-day we went hiking. Our first hike was through a cave. |
 |
| Here we go! The kids had a blast in the cave. Me, not so much as soon as I saw the HUGE spider on the cave wall I was ready to be done. They all want to go again, but I think I will sit out :) |
 |
| Next stop on our hike was this waterfall. We were all hoping to see monkeys, but they all must have been taking a nap when we went. Maybe another time. |
 |
| Tired kids! |
 |
| We attended our first Baptism since arriving in Brasil. This is the 2nd Saturday evening since our arrival. Sweetest lady and daughter. The service was very tender and beautiful. Annelise gave the opening prayer in Portuguese and did a great job. It was so great to be with our awesome Elders. Elder Dallto and Elder Emmanuel |
