well hey there EVERYBODY!!!!
how's life going for all of you guys???? my life is just dandy and i'm living the real life of a missionary of the LORD here in URUGUAY!!! not a whole lot has gone on in this week but i will try to talk about as much as possible!!! first off we had ZONE CONFERENCE with us and the missionaries in Rivera!!! it was super cool because the whole time they talked 100% about the Book of Mormon and the importance it is to use in the way we teach! i learned a super lots and it was awesome to see al of the Elderes that i knew in Rivera. the coolest part was being able to have my whole group that came with me on the mission together. i know that it's only three of us (me, Elder Shaw, and Elder Hendrickson) but it was awesome to be able to see all of us together because the last time all of us were together was our first day in Uruguay! haha Elder Hendrickson asked me "DUDE are you trunky because we only have 6 months left?" and obviously i said "HECK NO" and i asked him the same question and he just kind of stayed quite with a guilty look on his face and i told him "BUDDY we still have one forth of our mission to go!!! there's NO REASON to be getting trunky this soon!!! he's promised me that it's not affecting his work but we'll see!!! hahaha also this week we've been having a BUNCH of rain!!! like tropical rain storms with a bagillion inches of rain!!! luckily our house is a little bit higher then the road because if not we definitely would have gotten flooded with like a foot of water. it's been super fun being with Elder Duke because every now and then he still has those things that you would usually do at home like complain at the heat and the rain. but i keep telling "just think of all the memories that you've been making to be able to tell other missionaries and your family back home" and ever since i've said that he's been thinking about that "MAKING MEMORIES" haha it's super funny and lots of fun being with him! obviously it's a LOT of work, training and being district leader together but it's super fun at the same time!!! but because it's been soo rainy it's also been SUPER HUMID!!! and with SUPER HOT and SUPER HUMIDITY it definitely makes one SUPER SMELLY and i have to be honest Elder Duke has some of the MOST SMELLIEST FEET IN THE WHOLE WORLD!!!! when he takes off his socks at night i almost sufocate EVERY NIGHT. literally i have come very close to vomitting about 10 times with him. haha but like i tell him it always makes "MEMORIES" haha but that's pretty much all that has happened in this last week! thatnks a ton for all of your emails and everything that you all do for me!!!
