Hey family., this week has been really fun, mostly because there wasn't a whole lot of actual work. yesterday was the bicentennial of Argentina and they had a big parade, it was kind of gay but when the military units passed by it was pretty fun. so this last Sunday they announced the baptisms of our investigator family. its been really cool watching them progress. we have gotten attached to them a little. for me they are my family here. we always go over there and talk and stuff. they treat us just like a part of the family too. it will be interesting to see what happens when one of us leaves. today was a little boring. we went a played soccer. but i just wasn't enjoying it for some reason. this last Monday was also a fun day, we had the ward activity and they had empanadas and choripanes., just a giant sausage sandwich. well i have a bunch of pics to send but i couldn't get this gay card reader to work. so i guess ill have to go buy one. i made a funny video. ill let you guys know when its up though. well my mind went blank, dot you just that. lol. so whats new at home? well have a fun week, ill see if i can get some pics sent out soon. love you all

hey there, things are going OK, this last week went by really fast, thank heavens. I'm really getting annoyed with my comp. he just does things to feel like he can exercise authority over him. so I've been trying really hard to make sure I'm just as annoying back. lol. so this last Monday was armed forces day here and the whole base was open for visits. so we decided to go and check out the boats. it was so crazy fun. ill try and get some pics up soon. while we were there we saw this guy in our ward. hes a sailor and he was helping out with the tours. i got some really sweet pics. ha ha. then we went over to the military area and they had a bunch of stuff out. so i got some fun pics with me holding some fun guns. probably some of the most fun I've had out here. today we went to an activity with the other elders. just playing soccer and Frisbee. tunz of funzzzzz. then i bought i giant sandwich. so I've been reading alot in the bible recently, i just finished the five books of moses. i just started about two weeks ago. pretty good huh?¡?. numbers and Leviticus were pretty gay but the rest wasn't too bad. so what is new with the family this week.? it was really nice talking to you. it helped out alot. its weird thinking about how long I've been out here. i still have a lot to go though. but its much easier to think about. well i really cant think of much to say to you guys this week. its only been three days since we talked. hope you don't get too mad. well i love you all, hope it all goes well with you.

hey family, sorry i didn't get to talk to you guys that much on Sunday. it was nice to see your faces though, so I'm not going to write you a whole lot. I'm planning on calling you guys this next Sunday at 2:30. i´ll make for sure that I'm on right at the moment. i hope all is going well for you guys. its going fairly well for me here. no an insane amount of success but it could always be worse than it is. Ive been getting pretty annoyed with my comp though. he always seems to be in a bad mood. i swear he is bipolar. its really evident that he has the last child syndrome. who knows. so today i went out and i bought a soccer ball. its a pretty decent ball too. it should be fun playing now that we don't have to go asking around for a ball. well ill try to think o some fun stories to tell you on Sunday. have a fun three days :) love you all

hello, so not a whole lot going on this week. today we went to villa cerrito and we had a "zone activity". we had to pay for it all so it wasn't much of an activity. pretty gay if you asked me. but we did play soccer and i really enjoyed that, i scored the most awesome goal, it hit one post and bounced to the other and back and forth like 6 times, then it went in. it was so much fun. then we had hot dogs. then i decided to climb on this 30 foot water tank. there was this ladder so i thought it would be fun. and it was fun hhaha. so pretty much everything is sort of going down hill lately. the only good thing is that we had a really good lesson with one of our investigators. he really opened up to us and we were able to help him. he is the father of the family and he seems really interested. also he seems like he really needs a friend. i think he feels close to us now. hahh he says one day he´ll take us inside the naval base and show us around and let us touch all the guns and stuff. it sounds really fun. get some fun pics of me being a gangsta holding five guns, lol. Sunday was pretty crappy. my comp was being a queer. but its all good now. the other day we went to the ramirez family and we were talking with them trying to help out the young hyper active son. i think the family likes us. as we were leaving they gave us a giant bag of food. it was pretty cool. she said it was for all four of us but just me and my comp ate it. then the other elders talked with her in the street and she asked them if they had some. they had no idea what she was talking about. lol then the y get home and they were a little mad. honestly i forgot. or maybe i made myself forget. who knows. but i seem to be good at it. then last Thursday we had our district meeting and there are some gian bees nest outside on the chapel so we took turns throwing rocks at them and running off. hahahah it was so much fun. they always came out and chased us. then one elder was stung. hahaha. so the other day i had a dream that scared me, they decided to make me a trainer. haha i was like, but i don't want to be a trainer. it was pretty silly. lol i have never had such weird dreams in my life. its even weirder if its in Spanish. it kind a trips you out. but its fun. the other day i made banana bread, it was really yummy. now I'm gonna get fat. so i was thinking about Sunday when i get to call home. I'm thinking of just getting on skype and then we could have a video chat. that sounds fun to me. so you´ll have to keep the computer on afternoon. I'm not sure what time ill be able to get on. I'm thinking about 3-4 your time. so be expecting around then. hey also could you send some root beer concentrate when you send that stuff down? it sound really good. like 10 bottles. so i looked at the pics of SLC that you sent, they look really fun, hahah you still have snow. but i guess i cant laugh too long. its starting to get really cold here. not super cold. but i leave with a sweater every day now. well i cant think of anyhting else to say right now. hope you guys enjoy it and have a good week. elder seegrist
