I LOVE YOU!!!! (Week 10)

Dear Family,

How is everything going at home now that school and work have started again?
So Emily you will graduate school this year? and what about you Jason?... What is your major? :) And Megan how is Acting Up!? Natalie have you found a job? and are you still going to the gym? Dad how was your month or so of vacation? haha I can't believe you had so many days off.... Mom, are you ready to go back to work? how are you guys doing with everything? Are you still walking in the mornings? Do you go to the school to walk? 

Nathan and Andrea!!! I received your package!! Thank you so much! I opened the presents first because we can only read letters on p-days but packages we can open any day (and I received it on Friday), and I guessed who they were from :) hahaha I can't believe you guys could remember the deodorant, I got a good laugh, thank you! And I love the necklace! The other north american is so jelous ha. (For everyone else: When I went to Texas to visit Nathan and Andrea I told Nathan he smelled good, so what did he send me? His deodorant! And the last one in his pack. Thanks Nathan :) And Andrea found a necklace that has two clocks, and set one to uruguayan time and Utah time, to remind me I'm really not that far away.) When I get back I'll have to change it to Utah and Texas time ;)

The weather here is like Utah, but worse I feel like.  One its hot and the next thing its cold, and then hot and then in the middle of the day it will rain/pour for an hour, and its crazy!  My toe is still inflamed but it doesn't really hurt, just a big toe.  And I have to put on bug spray every night... I forgot two days ago and I got bit like crazy. But I'm the only one who ever gets bit and I don't know why.  Good news! I weighed myself for the first time :) and I'm good ha. A little less than usual but only by like a couple pounds.

I tried making pancakes last week..... and they did not turn out hahaha, oh well.  Oh and if you do send stamps they need to be forever stamps.  But Hermana Gines gave my 9 stamps that I can have so I'll be good for a little longer. Oh and guess what? This past week, I finally have worn all of my tops ha! Because I didn't have all of them in the CCM so since December.  Ah it's great to know I still kinda have a wardrobe.

Well ah more good news!!! We have FOUR progressive investigators! Carlos, Lourdes, Belen, and Joselin.  They all hae a baptismal date for the 25th and they all came to church! Áh it was so great! We went and picked them up for church and took them back, and they really enjoyed it.  The girls mom, Cintia, is not married, but she also came to church and really enjoyed it.  So this week we will be teaching the law of Chastity!  And our other two investigators with dates didn't come, Gillermina (who can't really walk and is a little sick) and Naomi who couldn't come, but she is 11 and is so smart.  When we ask her questions and she gives like perfect thought out answers! I am amazed.

We had a good activity on Friday for the men in the branch, we played soccer.  And we had a less active come, Marcos who is 17 and he has some problems with the commandments, anbd Mauricio who is 13 but really could be 20 with how much he knows and with his responses to questions.  And it was great, because they also brought friends and it was really fun! Well we are going to continue to do this maybe every week or something, but they told us we can't play because we are terrible at soccer.... hahaha oh well! We also played a little basketball and I would dribble and run down the court and some of the friends they brought were younger and they were like woah, she can run so fast! ha well it was a good activity.


Megan! I just read you were called as ward organist :) hehehe you will be great! Ah that is just awesome! 
And Dad, ahh the plaque... I don't know! I will really think about it this week! Thank you for keeping me updated with everything! Wow. Lots of new mission presidents, oh and let me know what the ward boudaries are when you find out!

I love you all so much, thank you for your examples!

Love,
Herman Louder
