Hey Family,                                                                                                                                                                                               I am sorry but I have been trying to put pictures on for the last few weeks but I just don't know why they wont download. But I finally got some in dropbox today, I just don't know why they are still files... Check it out because I think there are some cool ones. At our baptism on Saturday we found a Halo(big lizard) and caught it. The one we caught though is still a baby. They get like six feet long and live in the trees here. Other than, business as usual here in Vallehermoso. We had three kid get baptized on Saturday and this week their parents will be baptized along with the Cadorna family. But, unfortunately I might not be able to make it because I have to go to Bacolod for a fingerprinting. Something about my passport... Hopefully I can get back in time. Other than that Our area is super big so we are going to start a group in between our area and Gihulngan so that should be exciting. The food is still the same but I am getting pretty good at finding different ways to cook fish though. I really wish there was a better variety of fruit here like in my other areas. Here there are only bananas. And a lot of them... Well, my area is awesome and progressing and I am happy doing the work and learning more than I ever have. I still have to teach in church every Sunday even though they tell us that they have teachers. I gave a pretty sweet lesson on temples on sunday and realized how big of a blessing temples are in this life. I miss the temple so much and I hope that you are still taking advantage of that huge blessing of having a temple so close. Some people have to save up for months to be able to go to the temple here. I love you guys and miss you so much. And I am super excited about that package that you sent! I love this work and know its true. Keep helping the missionaries there, the help of the members is more effective that anything else in missionary work. LOve you.                                                                                                                                                                         Elder Pulsipher
