Hey Fam!!!

Hey family, how are you all doing, sounds pretty crazy for you all right now but it was absolutely crazy for me as well this week, it was nuts..  But thanks so much for the emails, I always feel so much better to know what is going on, and how awesome that you got to go to conference.  That is so awesome, I would of loved it to go, but it was so awesome in the mission home, without my shoes on with carpet and kicked back, man it was nice.  And you know how they talked about Perú so much, ya that was awesome.  When the seventy talked about his mission in perú and La Plaza de Armas, ya that is so in my mission, that is the Rimac zone, that is one of the coolest zones in the mission.  And then when they talked about the mission president of the west mission, ya he lives one floor above president tyler, and so when they saw their foto on the conference, we heard them yell and then they came down after to take pictures with us, and so it was pretty cool to be in the same house as them right after their picture was on conference.  So i have that picture on the email.  We hooked up the projector and watched it on the wall it was nice.  i watched one session is spanish, and then the priesthood session in spanish also, haha ya normal I understand them both now, ahah  Sister tyler told me this week, "Elder Stauffer I heard that you get a package everyweek, are your parents rolling in the doe?"  she said it just like that, I started to laugh so hard because she is always so formal but when she is in her house she loosens up a little and jokes with us and she said it like that so I thought it was funny.  And then I started to think about dad and how busy he probably was this week.   But dad just remember that busy is better than slow, how lame is it to be slow, time goes by slow and there is nothing to do, so just enjoy it, this is what you have always wanted.  Something that we learn in the mission when we have to deal with stress is to just rely on our Heavenly Father, He will take alot of the load if you just trust in him.  Dad if you keep all of the commandments I promise you that the business will go just fine, If you read everyday and pray in every moment it will just go good.  Don´t get mad, just problem solve.  This week has been a joke for us, well I got my new companion, Elder Diaz full of energy and ready to go.  On monday we had to train the new trainers so they know what to do when the new missionaries come in .  And then we had to do all of the informs for the entire mission, we do it on excel.  and then on tuesday up at 5 to go to the ccm to pick up the new missionaries.  That is awesome I love doing that, we get on the bus with the new missionaries and I had to tell the bus driver how to get to the chapel, and we did the change meeting in a different chapel this time and so it was alot different for me, and then elder Diaz was new so I felt like everything depended on me, IT WAS AWESOME.  haha I love the moments of pressure to see if I can get it all done, and man it went okay, not great, but we got it all done.  We had to hand out some stoves for all of the mission and I told them to put all of their luggage in this one room and then we handed out the stoves right by that room, and then when the change meeting got over all 200 missionaries headed to that room to get their luggage and it was right by where we were handing out the stoves and it was the biggest traffic jam of people I think I have ever seen.  haha But they all got off to their sectors.  Elder Pineda went to Maranga where I was for 6 months.  He is zone leader there now.  But I am thinking that I will be here in the office for at least two more changes and maybe until the end of my mission, we will see. This week we also had the zone leader council and they always go smoothly but people just kept calling us, and President Tyler was pretty stressed because we ran out of books of mormon in the mission and that is his thing man, just go hand out books of mormon, he makes it simple for us.  And then the clinic kept calling because we are taking care of an elder from the Arequipa mission right now, that fell off the second floor and had to get back surgery, he broke one vertabre, and they call us in a panic and they tell president that we needed to get a blood donor in there fast because he was going into surgery and so was like how are we gonnna find a blood donor, and so I got onto Imos ( it is the system that we have to keep track of all of the records of the missionaries) and on there it says their blood type and I found elder Tobler, and he had A- so he went with sister Tyler to the clinic.  It was a crazy day.  Then yesterday alot of missionaries had to go to immigrations and man all of their companions were in here until2:00 just wasting time, I was just praying that Pres Tyler didnt come into the office and see all of the Elders just messing around, I tried to tell them to do something productive but they were bored so they started to do some magic tricks and all that and so i just started to read the scriptures but they all got off before Pres Tyler got here, and it went smoothly.  And then today we got up and went and played against the south mission office and they kicked our butts in fútbol.  Perú won their match yesterday, so everyone is super excited today.  And also this week we had Elder Trujillo with us because he has to get knee surgery on his miniscus and he is a big guy, got a huge gut and he found out that we have been having a wrestling tournament in our apartment, and so he said Elder Stauffer I will kick your butt and so I said ya lets go, and man I womped on him, it was hilarious,  I am going to try and send you the video.  Love you all, be looking for the video to see if it comes in.  PS:  I got dips on that kearns truck toads.   

Pres Tyler bought us icecream after the session.  It was awesome. I dont think it is going to work the video.  LOve you all..
