Sounds like everything there is going awesome. Happy birthday merc. Everything is going good here. Its a nice 75 degrees today, partly cloudy with a slight breeze. Very good. Well this last week some good and bad happend. The car guy from the mission office called and im the new driver thank goodness. Its so fun being able to drive again, plus i dont feel like im always going to die now. Part of being alowed to drive though is you have to get sunglasses so the ZL's took me to the sunglass hut in the mall. So i was thinking when i got there ok ill buy some cool ones not to expensive, but no its a huge deal apparently. Yes tylers baptisimal date is off. We still teach him but he cant get baptized when he isnt willing to live the law of chastity and word of wisdom. They dont work like that. Cece is still on though and passed her baptisimal interview. She is getting baptized on the 14th. That will be fun. Mom ask grandma to email me those talks she gave about the holy ghost and baptism in case i have to give one. I will edit it but it would for sure help. Elder Davies the zl who is my way good friend now, wrote like 4 girls back home i know and it was so funny. Im anxious to see what happens and if they will write back. He hasnt gotten a letter for like 4 months so he is so excited. Today were going to Lahaina, Im not sure if thats how you spell it but it will be fun. Its a little town on the other side of the island. Look it up on google i hear its way cool. Yesterday i was supposed to teach in elders qorum ( dont know how to spell that either) but someone else stood up and taught a totally different lesson so i wasnt to bummed about that. It was weird though. The ward here is so much different than back home. Everyone is so much nicer and friendly and i dont know you just have to experience it for yourself to see what its like. On saturday we did a service project called  mormon helping hands. We went to Kula Elementary and just did tons of yard work and stuff. My comp just stood around though. Not wanting to get dirty. It felt good to do some manual labor though again. I got some gloves and stuff and just worked and it helped clear my mind and everything so i enjoyed it. This month we are going to  fly to the Big Island. Its called mission tour and its just the guys from maui going so it will be way fun. Chris Robbins is on that island and so is elder moritz so im stoked to see them again. I miss all the mtc guys. and ya its me elder tiakia and the zls. it will be way fun. Well there isnt much else exciting that happend this week. Sorry no cool stories. This is week 5 of the transfer so transfer calls are the sunday after mothers day and transfers are on that wednesday so we will see what happens. Well everything here is going good. One day at a time i guess. Some guy in our zone just went home. Just more motivation to do what needs to be done. I look at all the people that i have seen fail at missions or other things in life and honestly it drives me more than anything else.  Thanks for everything and if you want anything else let me know. The tongans make some way cool stuff. I cant believe this is already almost over. Thank goodness. Just kidding. Well write if you need anything else from here. Love you all
