Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes!!! My first birthday in the mission was a bit weird. Never had a birthday like it before! Usually, I hang out with friends and go do something crazy, but this year I couldn’t. The missionary work can´t stop. We worked all day, like normal, most of the time forgetting it was my birthday. And no one knows it´s your birthday except your companion (and luckily he was nice and let some people know). At night we went to a members house for some cake and to sing Happy Birthday. And the night before Elder F. and I ordered pizza and made cookies!! I also opened some packages that I received for my birthday with lots of goodies inside:D The musical card you and dad sent was hilarious! hahaha  And I´ve already used the dog whistle–the dogs all look at me funny haha! It was a one-of-a-kind birthday!

We taught the Restoration several times this week. I´m getting lots of practice with it! Portuguese is still coming along everyday! Thanks for everything!

Love,

Elder Olsen
