Baptism this week! News from Clarksville! and District Leader!

well, transfers are all here and unfortunately elder burrnett is takin off he is going to west nashville and i am going to be staying here in franklin. and president made me the district leader for this area. the only problem with that...there are 2 sister missionaries in the district...
hahaha just kiddin mom... there cool
anyways, other super exciting news!!!
elder knaras called me up and just unloaded a ton of news, 1)knaras is training!! he is getting a native too which is just what he was hoping for too 2) he is leaving clarksville and 3) divina and hugo are getting married! they finally got all the paperwork and whatnots done that they needed to and now there finally gettin married and baptized...they only problem is that now...neither knaras nor i will be there for it but they told him that they would send alot of pictures! divinas dad disowned her for it but she already has a kid with hugo and they are really in love so i think he will get over it when he stops being stubborn.
also, jose melendez here in franklin is doing super good and is super excited to get baptized on this saturday. he is stopping smoking so please keep him in your prayers as much as possible.
themis and her 2 girls are doing super good and there is a familia here named the allen family and bro allen is a stud...to be honest the whole family are studs but brother allen has been going out on exchanges with us alot and he went on his mission to el salvador and he finished his mission the very month the war started down there. but! he still speaks spanish super super good. its been a loooooong time since his mission but he still speaks and he speaks well. dad, keep your chinese, your never going to know when your going to need it.
anyways the allens invited themis and her 2 girls over for familia home evening and so tonight were going to go do that and were all pretty stoked!
also we found a really cool family(we found more than just 1 family this last week but these guys are super cool) and there names are mosies and maria and thy have some kids but there super cool and were pretty excited to teach them. also another mexican that is really cool named alvarao who is (oddly) into chinese stuff and has a huge dragon tatoo on his shoulder.
we also went to the temple this last week and that was super cool, for a lil while i had headphones sot hat i could listen in spanish. that was super cool... i really do love spanish.
well basically those are the highlights to the week, we tore it up on our lessons we taught and a bunch of other stuff because we just kept truckin and elder burrnett is such a stud so that helps alot too!
hey can you guys send me tylan and jacobs address. and dad when you get a hold of nate tell him that he is the man and i am determined to send him a sweet tie! idk if that even matters to him...probably not...but that is about all i've got...so yea.
anyways i g2g and i love you all and ill talk to you lata
love
