Hey guys! 

This week's been pretty cool! We're back to the English teaching grind. Elder Eckersley and I have two classes right now...one intermediate class that's every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday; and an advanced class that meets every Tuesday and Thursday. The students all seem pretty good and are happy to be learning.

As all of you have probably heard, we're now able to call our families on pdays. Definitely a surprise for us. It was pretty good timing though because the news came out at like 12:30 AM Lao time and I woke up to a barrage of family members asking if I'd call today. It was pretty cool. It was really strange to talk to everyone, and it will definitely be interesting for it to become a normal thing. I'm pretty sure that the four of us out here may have been among the first to call home because there's not really anywhere else that has pdays on Saturday hahahaha.

Today we went to a YSA activity at a lake house out here. It was pretty cool. We got to talk a lot with everyone and play some fun games. Afterwards we went and tried to visit the less active family of the Branch President's brother. When we got there they weren't home, but the sort of less active parents of his were. We had a pretty good time sitting and talking with them.

Thanks guys! I love you all. I don't have many pics this week, sorry. :(
