Feb. 18, 2014 Transfers

So little time! As you have heard Tansfer week is this week. Elder Glasgow will be leaving me and Elder Stanley will be coming to Kerava. THis will be my third Change in Kerava. But this is nothing compared to another one of my favorite elders. He has been in Haaga for 10 months. and the last two changes he has been training. Just a bit of info.
Tonight elder Glasgow and I are heading down to Helsinki to pick up my new Comp. And then tomorrow morning Elder Glasgow will be heading to his new area.
Some of the stories I wanted to tell you will have to wait until next week. So I will need you to remind me. Here are the notes to remind me.

Elder Glasgow had his birthday this last week. He is now 21. would you be willing to send him a little package? he didn't get anything from his family and I felt aweful. If you could write him just a short little note. He is one of the best elders. I cant wait for you to meet him. He is the example of Christ Like Love. I wish I could have stayed with him another change., but back to him. If you could send him just some thing small that would be great. 
Funny story about his birthday. 
His birthday was on Thursday our planning day so I had decided that I would bake a cake during planning and He. It was a recipe from my cook book from Kim and Beej. Anyway. We made this cake. It was cooking just grand until we pulled it out after its allotted time. It was creamy in the middle....Oh no I ruined his cake! But wait! Missionaries are bright fellows. We can think of something. So we decided to pull our the middle and put all the uncooked goo in the cup cake pan....then the cake would not come out of the pan. 
(Looking back we had the wrong pan all along....ei hyvä)
Scraping the sides we were finally able to get the cake out upside down.
after that we had to put the candles in the bottom because we had not top.
We put the candles in and lit them. (with 21 candles you have to make  wish fast because they start to melt.)
We blew out the candles and started to pull our the candles when we realized we had reuse able candles witha string thingy on both ends...That is when we realized that we put the candles in too soon after pulling the cake out of the oven. So we had candle wax melted all inside this little cake.
This was one of the best times we have had. We just laughed about it. because it was so silly. we ate it anyway, pulling out as much wax as we could. It was grand.
Short story i thought you might like.
We need to go and get my comp now...I am sorry that this is so short. and very fast. forgive all of my spelling mistakes. Know that I love you all and I pray for you every day. Be safe and good.
Love,
Vanhin Sandberg

ps. Elder glasgow was in dire need of new shoes so I gave him my second pair for his birthday. How does my money account look? Am I doing alright?

pss. I sent Kim's chocolate bar to our home address because I don't have their home address. I know that you know what to do. :)
I have just a little bit more time while elder Glasgow finishes up. 
The pictures are great!! I figured that Emmie had some kind of digested food on her. And Jeff's new glasses.........and justin going in to get his checked.................not sure how I feel about this. I may be the only boy without glasses...........Dad and myself. But dad uses his for reading the scriptures so it doesn't count.
TIme to go.
LOVE YOU!!
