Week 76!

hey,

first i wante to let you know that i recieved your package that you sent me with gum, candy, pictures, and the t shirt that the ward signed!  it was super cool to see and to get something like that THANKS!!!wha else hs happened this week?????  well....  we've still eaten 4 more meals of rice but luckily it wasn't the whole week.  but i am getting a little tired of rice...  but oh well it least i's not terrible.  but let's see, it's been raining for thes last 4-5 days like on stop and because our roads are practically all dirt it turned into pure MUD!!!  it's even worse because recently they have been working on the roads, putting water pipes under the roads so all the dirt was super soft before it rained.  slipping and slidding everywhere,  and apparently it's suppsed to rain full on until thursday.... but it's all good.  so this week we already did divisions with te Zone Leaders.  i stayed in my area and elder Duke let to their area.  i was with a kid named Elder Nygard,  he's from Washington,  he's got a little bit less time them i do on the mission but he is a total STUD.  this is his first change as Zone leader but he's doing super well and we had such a great teacher and you can super tell that he absolutely LOVES the people of Uruguay.  the way he teaches is in a way that it's super simple but it is also super personal.  it was super fun.  because it was raining like non other while we were working together we were both slipping all over the place in like 6 inches of mud.  today has been a pretty cool day because we went out to the ZOO and ate pizza together as a district.  it was pretty funny because on te way over to the zoo we walking and it was poring rain, but once we got there it stopped and it was totally great and eventhough everything else was wet and the animals smelled terrible because it's a poor free outside zoo so i don't think they get bathed very often.  but it was lots of fun to be together as a DISTRICT.   but thanks everyone for all the love and support.  can't wai to hear from ya next week!

love ya,

Elder Tyler Atkinson
