Umm.......yeah

Hey Family: In mexico we have a couple different holidays but I am not sure about thanksgiving. Christmas is going to be really exciting! Everyone makes a huge bonfire in front of their house, cooks stuff, gets really drunk, and shoot pistols up into the air saying arriiiba!!! Really, they do say arribba when they get excited/happy etc.
Also the Music is really interesting in the Frontera (places next to the border) they really like "Banda" which is a type of music that is basically really funny stories put to music. It is the stereotypical Mexico music but it fits perfectly here.

Update: I am learning a lot about Jesus Christ. My life is changing and I am so grateful for you guys. The testimonies I have and the moments in the homes of families when I feel power and I can really cut through all the different philosifies with the power of the truth has been in part from the many years of growth that you all have provided. I will continue to use this gift and try to maintain it for all of you.

Thank you.
Elder Curtis Hanson
