Here is the note from Kyle this week:
haha its alright! you have to worry about more things than me! that stinks about amelia but good thing its just her baby teeth! things out here are good! mirna has a baptism date in april (that will hopefully move up to feb before she goes to OTS) and mari should get baptized in feb (she wants to go to relief society before getting baptized because thats what it will be like the rest of her life) so thats understandable. and were helping jen quit smoking and she said shed read the bom once a day everyday! i dont know if she came to stake conference but she wants to come but has some trouble because of her son (severely handicapped)
this sunday we find out who gets transfered so monday ill be able to let you know if im going!
i love you sister!

We didn't hear about any crazy missionary New Year's celebrations this week, maybe next week! This is the word from Hawaii this week (as you can see short and to the point):
we just have to schedule the date for mari and then she will be set! so we'll give her a call this week to see what she decided! im superexcited and i seriously hope that it goes through! :D love you

Okay, so I have been really slack getting updates on here for the past two weeks. No excuses, and I will attempt to be better!
Here is the letter from Kyle:
so guess what happened on friday? we had an island wide thunder/lightning storm (very rare in hawaii) and because of that we had an island wide black out! and it lasted from 7pm friday night to saturday noon! we were about to start cooking at a members house when it happened and so we whipped out the camping stove and cooked on there! i make schweineschnitzel! it was sooo good! haha and then on sunday we talked to mari and shes ready to get baptized!!! in january!!! woot! shes looking over the saturdays in the month and will let us know which one she wants to do it on! and we had a lesson with mirna and weve taught her everything and i told her so, and that we feel that she would be ready for baptism but its her choice and we dont want her to feel pushed but we asked her to pray about baptism this week and also about the truthfulness of the book of mormon. i told her that if the bom isnt true than joseph smith was a liar and we dont have the authority to baptize but if it is true then he was a prophet and we do have the authority from God to perform saving ordinances. so she said shed pray about it this week and we have a lesson with her this coming weekend so itll should be good! so we very well might have 2 baptisms this coming month! woot!
other than that i just talked to you less than a week ago so i dont have much else to say :D love kyle
