So last week we didn't get a letter from Elder Maki. He did send one for us to forward to his former companion Elder Flores though. So we kinda asked why he didn't write us. This was his response.
hi mom!
First of all cool your jets ok? lol the system crashed while i was in the process of writing you so the 3 page letter and the 7 pics didnt make it. sorry. but the jist of the last letter was just telling you about the PPI's with pres. and all the cool stuff and people that we met that week... but this week was better. we finally met with brittany, a super cool black lady and we invitedd her to church, she said yes and we got her a ride, she came with her two daughters, one of them is deaf, so we were able to find someone in the ward to speaks sign, so it meant alot to her. also We past by her place lastnight, and she told us, "i belong in your church! i felt at home there, the people the environment, thats for me, i loved it!" is was amazing!!! btw this week is transfers, and i am staying here, and Elder Hardman is leaving. Elder Benitez was Emergency Transferred out during PPI's something happened i guess, no matter it aint my bidness. (sorry i have been spending alot of time around black people lol) so you never even told me where Nathan Bullock is going and when he leaves, so could you fill me in on that please? thx lol... oki doki, i got the packages on wednesday, and i was like holy crap when i opened them! The CD's are great they look so cool!!! deffinately better than the first batch eh? and the salsa and the jam made it fine and it is delicious.. Elder Hardman had a hard time leaving the salsa alone lol... tomorrow we find out who my new compi is and if i am senior or junior, i dont really want to be DL again tho, it was alot of work, but i will accept if it is required of me... so its Elder Rugg and I staying in the Homestead areas, and my area is the size of some zones. President texted us yesterday and told us that the Tropical Storm shouldnt affect us, it is turning north east, we will just get alot of wind and rain he said.. but he always keeps us updated.. He never lets us down.. 
so sorry about last week, I will always write but i had no idea this would happen. the entire homestead area went black. Time sucks! 9.5 months left. it is going way to fast!!! I am so excited for James!! and Ryan, btw how is he doing with the visa junk? The story with David, is a long one, ask him if he would tell it to you cuz its not really my place to say. i amsure he would tell you. he is coming back to the states on July 30th i am so excited to see him! so i am starting transfer 10 out of 16,crazy eh? i bet you remember eh dad? almost at the end of this transfer i hit my six-months-to-sexy lol, is what we call it in the mission. its like "oh crap i have six months left, time to work out" kinda thing lol.. thinking back to the beginning of my mission, in Salt Lake City Mission and all the scary experiences that i had there, (not to be mentioned till after the mission) and thinking to now, playing around in florida city and the time that has gone past and everything is nuts to even think about. goes way way way to fast...its scary sometimes... so how is everything back home? so my last physical therapy is on Friday and then after she is putting me into the Pilates Class,..i will be sending the reciepts and one of my journals home this week or next but they will get to you... I love you all and again im sorry about last week.. but it happens eh?
Yours Always
Elder Maki
