November 2, 2009- Hola Everyone

hey everybody,
thanks for writing this week. it was sweet to hear from you all and to hear how everything is going back home. i hope that you all had an awesome halloween. i actually saw like 2 trick-or-treaters! i was super surprised. i want to tell b-pip that i´m super stoked to hear about his mission call! i actually didn´t know that he was going to puerto rico so it was awesome to hear. he´s going to be an awesome missionary.
well its been a pretty good week. we were hoping to set some baptisms with people this week, but it didn´t end up happening. we´re working hard to find more people to teach here. we did find this one lady, named lujan, that i did a contact with a week ago. she seems like she could progress pretty well. she lives with her little kid who´s like 2 years old. i´m really hoping that she will come to church this week.
so i´m pretty excited because i just finished the book of mormon in spanish this morning. when i started to read it in spanish 3 months ago it was kinda tough for me. now i can´t believe how much has already changed. sometimes there are words that i still don´t understand, but for the most part i really understand everything. but yeah, i seriously learned so much more than i knew before. i´m really excited to start reading other things. i think i´ll start reading in d&c and then once i finish that, i´ll probably start reading the new testament. we´ll see how all that goes.
mom, thanks for telling me about that talk. it sounded like a really good one. i´ll be sure to remember those points that you talked about because its really true...we are all going to run into tough times. dad, i love ya. keep working hard and don´t get too girly on me with only the girls in the house hahah. sean, che i hope that you´re lovin it up at school. i still don´t know whats going on in the sports or music world. all i can tell you is that here in argentina when boca plays river...good luck trying to get in a house hahah. paige, how are you already getting ready to drive?! hahah are you kidding me?!? but thanks alot for writing me and telling me how everything is going. bridg, i hope that you´re having an awesome time too. keep doing what you´re doing.
well i guess i better get going. i love you all. thank you all for everything. keep working hard and know that the Lord is always with you. until next week...
con cariño,
