Churrasco and Tubing in Morretes

The Gerhardt Pereira family from Paranagua invited us to join them and a few other families from their ward to a cookout and tubing on one of the several rivers that pass through Morretes.  It was a drizzly day and a little cold but we had a grand time!  Imagine tubing through the Atlantic rainforest.  Not too bad!

Sausage and bananas grilling on the barby!

Dallin came back a little wet and cold.

Family Night with the Augusto Family

Tonight we spent an enjoyable evening with my first counselor and his family.  Lucas, the family's youngest child, made a wand for Dallin. He is quite the inventor.  Ollivander's has nothing on him!

Random Grocery Store Picture

This is Dallin at the grocery store.  I am not sure what the significance is of this picture but he is a good looking kid if I do say so myself.

Hospital Visits

Dallin and mom went to the hospital to visit Elder Brino who had his appendix removed today.  Our dear elder goes home in just over two weeks and this isn't the way any of us envisioned him finishing his mission.  He assures me that he will be out working in the next few days.  He is a great missionary.

FELIZ ANNIVERSARIO BONNIE!!!!!

Today we celebrated Bonnie's birthday by inviting several families from here in Curitiba over for family night.  It was very enjoyable.  We played games, laughed, ate cake and salgados and had a great time.  Abracos para todos!
