This pic pretty much describes my life.



"Haha this pic pretty much describes my life. It was taken in our district meeting. "
 
 
I cut my hair! I´m going all Argentina style. I even awkwardly shared the gospel with the barber. And the regular show was playing in the background and even though I was being a good missionary and not watching it I could still hear the 'Whoooaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!' hahaha I couldn't help but laugh and think of Travis and his little Hudson gang!

I´m starting to really love Burzaco, which is weird. I guess it just feels more like home to me now. I absolutely love our ward. All the members are so different and have their own stories. Remember the crazy lady who bore her testimony my first Sunday with white hair? ................... she is always inviting us to her home to eat lunch with her and her son haha and they just argue the whole time. So we are teaching them to say a prayer every time they start to argue.


With Bishop Baez at home Elders made ​​him a thank you and we did COOKIES
Yesterday was her birthday and we all ate cake and sang to her and played a scripture game. It was crazy yet fun. Laura and Yonathon are doing great! This week we went to their house to help prepare for the wedding. We made paper mache bolbs and painted decorations. I am so excited for them and they are continuing to progress in the gospel.

This week we have been visiting a less active named Leandra who, like many people I meet here, has had the hardest life. And lately she has been accepting us, reading the scriptures like a champ and she even came to church with us this Sunday. That made me super happy. :)

Hermanas on P-Day
 
This week it has rained a monton! I have walked in water up to my calves! Okay but it was only because I did it willingly... It was a really cool looking puddle. One morning I was studying alone because my companera had a headache and It started to pour outside. I kindof put on my rainboots and rain around in our small 20 foot diameter yard only for like 5 minutes. It was glorious! Dont worry I got right back to studying.

I have been teaching a lot more English and we are even going to set up and English class in our ward. One of our investigators called us for help and when we got there she just wanted me to do her English homework haha. I tried to exchange a lesson as part of the deal but she 'had to leave'. Service with a smile, right? :) Also NO ONE here can say the word Perdiddle. You know when one headlight is out and you touch the roof? The Bishop was giving us all a ride home and I was teaching them how to say it. Every native in the car was trying to pronounce their 'ers', even the Bishop, and it was the funniest thing you ever saw. We all had a good laugh over that.
"Yes mom, I did school the Elders in Bball! We played futbol and I even scored a goal for my first game. Maybe I can be Argentinan."
Quote of the week:   If you need a lift, live the gospel. If you need an even bigger lift, SHARE the gospel! As Nacho would say, 'Its the best! I LUFF it! '
