Week 84

This week has been pretty calm. We had transfers this week my old comp just finished up his mission and they are sending me a new one today, Elder Farris, a friend from the MTC. This week I think I gained like 10 pounds everyone wanted to say good bye to my comp and they all did that by giving him lots of food. Other then that not much happened this week. With transfers I am now in charge of 2 zones Oran y Tartagal and I took over the sisters area here in Tartagal as well.
Love and miss you all lots.

Week 83

This week was crazyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Lots of traveling again and it is still cold outside. The major event this week was that we had a conference with a 70, Elder Packer, son of the apostle. It was great accept that it was in Jujuy which is a 7 hour bus ride. We left Tuesday and didn't get in till late. Then on Wednesday my comp had a musical number that went well. We had a leader meeting first so there were just 8 of us with the 70 which was cool. We then had a conference and then we had to go home. The problem was that there was a holiday in  our city so no buses went so we ended up taking one at 1 in the morning meaning we didn't get back to my area till almost 7. That was a long day. The rest of the week went well. I have been eating like crazy because my comp goes home this week and all the members give us a bunch of food. We got to play soccer today for P-day and that was a lot of fun.
Love and miss you guys lots

Week 82

This was a weird week I had p day on Tuesday and then Wednesday it was still super cold out side. Thursday we went to Aguaray and we had splits with the elders there. That night we headed out to Salvador Mazza to do divisions with them as well, so we wouldn't have to travel twice. That went well just me and my comp almost froze to death in their house because there wasn't any heaters and the blankets were super thin. After that we had splits and I got to work in Salvador Mazza. It is literally only a bridge away from Bolivia. We came back that night and the Elders from Aguaray came to visit because they hadn't power in their house for almost a week and they needed to practice for a musical number that is going to happen in this next conference this Wednesday. Also I just heard today that my brother got his mission call and is going to Guadalajara Mexico!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Crazy stuff.
Well Love and miss you all lots.

Week 81

Well Sorry this is a bit late but I had interviews and had to go to Pichanal yesterday. So I have P-day today!!! The interviews went well and I got to see a couple of members from my old area which was cool. I spent this week freezing my butt off and it was awesome. The weather has finally cooled off for a while so I have been walking around in a coat and hat all day. I had forgotten how great the cold is. This week we also had a baptism of a little girl who is super great. She is only 8 but is more excited to go to church then anyone I have ever seen.
Love and miss you all lots
