Happy Easter!

I hope and trust that all of you had a great easter! Our's wasn't too bad but i would have loved to be at home, but hey, in 365 days i'll be celebrating easter at home! yeah! Anywhos, we were invited over to the Rivera's and they originally were having some non-members over but the non-members cancelled but we still were blessed to be able to have dinner over there! we had a really good rump-roast with some potatoes mixed with sweet potatoes and some really yummy biscuits! we finished off the meal with some right out of the oven cookies! So not too bad of an easter meal. Church went pretty good too! the sacrament talks were about the atonement and the resurrection and two of the three i liked quite a bit! In gospel principles we talked about the atonement and read the story of the debtor, the mediator guy, and the creditor. I love the story! christ truly is our advocate with the father, he is there for us and he has taken us out of debt so we are now in debt to him. It won't be the easiest to pay off but it's possible! I know that's true!We have been getting to know the area better and better and a few more members here and there and they're warming up to us so it's good. The Ward mission leader, bishop (for the most part), HIgh Priest group leader, and elders quorum president like us so that's a start, right? Elder romeril is doing really well and he's such a great teacher!! I wish i could be half as good as he is! He has a great testimony and i wish we could have 50x more appointments so i could listen to how he teaches so i can better my teaching skills. he is doing really well! he hasn't really gotten too home sick and i'm so proud of him! Our padmates (austin, in New York, got me saying "pad" for our house ha) are nice too. we've really bonded and had some very fun times! Elder minnick, (the other trainer) is such a funny guy! he came out with Winspear...WEll, i got me a new bike seat and i 'm pretty sure that it's the most amazing thing ever! i can ride forever now!! ha it hasn't gotten too hot since we've been here but it'll soon change! it actually rained!!!! i didn't go outside for a while because i knew it prob. would be all dirty rain and get my shirt all dirty...but we walked out eventually when it cleared but we walked about a mile+ and then it started to pour down! Luckily i had a jacket on so it wasn't too bad. It's already been 3 weeks since i've been with romeril and it's gone pretty fast! i've really grown to love the kid! he's just got a funny sense of humor. We played sports this morning (it was basketball so i didn't really play because i don't like it too much and also i'm horrible at it and plus i played last week and just didn't have a good time because EVERYTIME missionaries play it gets way too competitive and makes everyone mad and upset so i just played tennis with E. minnick.) but we're going to this hispanic store for groceries and i've truly begun to branch out with trying different foods. I havent' gotten to the point where i want to try menudo yet but give it time...So that's about all the exciting news i have. Our investiagtors are few but we're still trying really hard to find more! So the work moves on in panama! i'm also so excited to hear that Paul Westover...Elder Westover i mean, is going to be in chile for 2 years!! COngratulations paul!! i love you buddy! Hope this week goes great for you all and always remember to pray, read your scriptures, and to have "no worries"
i love you all!!!!!
love, elder robison
