FERB!

Image
First off everyone here has a Ford fiesta which is awesome because I Yell Ferb everytime I see one. But in reality none of them will every compare to the orginal Ferb. Oh my lanta! Today was so good! First off, Pday which is always awesome. We did all the usual clean, workout, buy groceries, and of course talk with my famiily! Then while we were playing basketball I thought it would be fun to runa round the edge of the church for a mile )which it was=. After PDay ended we had our district meeting and we practiced making commitments and the spirit was so strong! And we visited Gustavo, Teresa and Rocioñ what studs! Teresa and Rocio are getting baptized this Saturday! We taught them a simple lesson but I felt the spirit so strong! Plus I felt like I could understand a lot. Then we ate Mate and Pancakes with them and Gustavo looked up my house on google earth lol. Then we had to run to make it back home in time. What a sight two Gringos running through the streets of Argentina )I LOVE ...

BIDETS RULE!

Just so everyone knows there is no story about a bidet.  I just thought you should all know.  Another Pday! Gotta go running again which was dope! We went on top of this hill right above Choele Choel and we could see the whole town it was so cool! Then we made some super good chicken and rice and played some slap jack with some music in the background. Then we always have district meeting which I always like because we only have 4 elders in our district so we can really help each other with our people that we are teaching. Then we rushed down to teach Gustavo, Rocio, and Teresa. They are so cool! I freaking love them! Teresa made a summary of what they all need to do before baptism. We were stunned! She has so much faith and I love it! ME ENCANTA LA OBRA! Oh and the song Bacon Pancakes is amazing just so you all know. Tuesday! It was so cold when I woke up so there was literally no one outside. But, when there was someone, you already know we talked to them! I love sharin...

 This is gonna be a long one folks. Don{t think I{m gonna have another pday for 2 weeks. I think me and Nye broke the record for amount of time spent calling in the MTC lol. I freaking love all of my friends shoutout to all you folks on this email list love you all. We took pics with both our teachers today. It was so weird when we took pictures with Hermama Perez because we are only allowed to give girls handshakes so I just politely stood next to her. And it rained today! The rain, I don{t know what it is, is so relaxing! And we played soccer! Me and Jed sauced everyone I can{t wait top lay in Argentina. I also got dress coded by the Mission President for my pants being too tight. He told me the pants were inappropriate. Time to start that MTC grind back up again Thursdays are a Little annoying because you don{t get workout time. The MTC believes a service Project is working out, even though all we did for our service Project was sweep wáter. Yes you read that right, we swept wát...

Ok I haven{t been able to write in a coupe of days and so much has happened! I made it Nequen Argentina!!! It was raining so much in buenos aires and everyone was so tired and then we found out we had a 3rd flight instead of a bus ride. In the airport everyone fell asleep it was so funny. When we got to the misión home most of us were running on 8 hours of sleep in like 3 days. So we me tour trainers or our padres lol! My trainer is Elder Wood he is so freaking cool! He is from Farmington, Utah. After we meto ut trainers we went to a hotel and just chilled. I met a bunch of other missionaries and then went to bed.   Here we come first day in the field! We got up and had to take a 4 hour bus ride to my área. Choele Choel!!!! It is the most east part of the misión. I freaking love it here! PS the bus was so nice! Immediately off the bus we were talking to people. Everyone once in awhile I start the contact and usually Elder Wood has to come in and sabe me but I still love it! We talk...

First Pday in the mish! It was so relaxing. Just chilled all day. We even went on a run and I saw the Choele Choel sign. )For sure taking a pic in front of it= Also saw another part of the town and we are gonna plan a morning to just contact there. Had first district meeting and I was apparently supposed to have an interview with the president. He never called so we ended up studying in our apartments forever. I love studying! This week Elder Wood has really pushed me to start talking to a lot of people. Because I have to practice my spanish if I want to improve it. My favorite part of every lesson is when we sing songs to the people we{re teaching. My favorite hymn to sin gis [Mas Cerca Dios de ti[ Then Teresa, Rocio, and Gustavo keep progressing! It is so awesome! They are such studs. We are just becoming friends with so many people in this town I love it! We also started teaching Melanie she felt the spirit so strong in the first lesson it was awesome! Then every night we have start...
