Ouch!!!!!

Evidently at some point this week Jordan got bitten by a centipede....I know I can't stand that thought, but he said it was huge. This is a small one compared to the one he found in his bed. He said he only felt a bite not a sting so we are hoping that the poison did not get to far into his system. He was able to fall back asleep, but everything made him antsy for sure.
This is his zone at the CCM (MTC) in the Dominican Republic

Here he is with Nellie, the first person he baptized, and her friends and family.
Love the coconuts, he cracks me up!!!
He stole a ride on the John Deer at the Temple. He use to mow his Gma and Gpa's big yard with a red mower, so he was showing them what a REAL mower was like!!!
He really enjoyed being able to go to the Temple while he was in the CCM, and he really misses that now that he is out in the field, but he knows he will get there before long.
There is not doubt in my mind that he got in this bush LONG BEFORE he realized about all of the bugs in this wonderful country he gets to live in. This kid just makes me smile.
Thanks for all of the letters and support sent his way. He really does enjoy every word of it and he really does feel our prayers. Keep on praying.

He is a crack up! I really want to see the spider video and the whole centipede thing makes my skin crawl. By the way, I love your smile in your picture.

Great Pictures of Jordan. A few centipedes come in during the summer here in St Johns, but they are very, very small, and not near our beds :)
