Grasshoppers and Hurricanes!

Dear Familia,

Oh my goodness this place is so cool because I can get anything I need just a couple of blocks away from my house in every direction and the food has been super good so far. I have been really blessed with not getting super sick yet and the people are really nice. Where do I begin...well we didn't get any rain from the storm and we were getting ready for it by getting extra water, food, etc. Thankfully though it died out pretty quickly. Yesterday I got the chance to eat some grasshoppers and they were pretty good because they tasted like peppers and lime and I have some pictures I will try to send. Ok so every Sunday they have choir practice after church because they are getting ready for stake conference and they want me to be in the choir because my comp plays the piano and they need more guys, so I joined and I'm telling you they are really bad. Remember at Kyall's farewell the church choir was pretty bad and Kate looked at you and said,"Oh my gosh they were absolutely terrible." It is a thousand times worse than that day. My  comp  and I for Halloween are going to wear super hero shirts under our white dress shirts and it's going to look super cool because he is going to be Clark Kent and I'm going to be Captain America. It is going to be super cool. Here  in Mexico we have competition for teaching people. The Jehovah's Witnesses tell people that the Book of Mormon has weird stuff and that none of it is true, but the really funny part is that they talk to people about my comp and I. They say we are really handsome and strong and they might see us walking around sometime to try and talk to them. The best part is they gave me a nickname and some of the people here call me that. They call me Goliath because they think that I am huge and strong, but can be slain  by a rock haha. No seriously though they call me that and others because they can not say Wolford they call me Waffles, Gigantic, Lobo, and  a few others. My Spanish is coming along everyday, but I still can't say a whole lot. I can understand a little bit more though which is good because now I can tell if they are making fun of me or if they try to trick me as well as when they say,'' Oh you don't understand do you? Anyways my comp is awesome and my area is really great because the members here are really helpful and they always have food for us and to be honest I might gain weight here rather than lose weight. We had an awesome lesson with an inactive member and it was super cool to see the change of heart he had during the lesson. You could even  see it in his eyes. I did't say much, but my comp said exactly what needed to be said it was so cool. Well I love you all so much and can't wait to bring you here someday it is so flipping awesome.
