Hey Mom!
 
This week was good! I think it was the first week this whole transfer that I got to stay in lovely Florence. It was SO NICE. The weather has been great too except for Monday. We're still working alot with our investigator Giulio. He's the man. Like I said he's the head chef of a restaurant here and he said in like a couple weeks or so he's going to have us over for a 'bella cena.' That means beautiful dinner. Oh yeah. Can you say free Bistecca Fiorentina???? I love him so much. Not just for that either. He's making so much progress! He's learned everything and is just itching to get baptized. Haha the only problem is that he's living with somebody and he has to get married. Looks like its going to be a waiting game. PLEASE pray for him if you get the chance. He's super awesome and all he wants to do is follow Christ. He's super cool. He's a super stud.
 
Anziano Bullock is the man. Did I mention he has 9 kids in his family? Haha I've been completely oblivious to the fact that a ton of LDS people have a TON of kids. Its super foreign to italians because the max they normally have is like 2. Super funny though. Whenever he shows a picture of his family you can just see their eyes widen suddenly.
 
Anything else that happened...Oh there was a HUGE activity for all the single adults members in Italy in our chapel this weekend. From Bolzano to Sicily ages 18 to 34. IT was crazy. It was also cool because I got to see some members from Bolzano and they remembered me. They where like, 'Anziano Dell'Oso what the heck? You speak italian now!' Haha I completely forgot that they knew me when I didn't know how to speak. It was pretty funny.
 
Well I have to go now. I hope everybody is doing well. I'm super sorry that this email is so short. Thanks again for everything!
 
Love,
Joey
