Warming Up

Dear Familia!
Hey how is everything going? I am doing good this beautiful P-day. It's actually kind of hot here. I'm in a short sleeve shirt right now. And we had Helados. Ice Cream. I have some pictures and they are of My last day with Elder Richan in the bus terminal. And with Hna. Alicia. She is our President of the Relief Society. She is awesome and practically my mom so you don't need to worry about me. She even gives us food when the members don't give us lunch on sunday's because they forgot and she goes and buys it no matter how much we tell her she can't go buy any because it's the Sabbath. She just gets mad at us and does it anyways. She is such a sweetheart. I love her to death. And I'm trying to remember what other pictures I have on there. Oh our bathroom!!! It is destroyed. Well was. It had so many holes in the floor from past Elders who showered with the curtain on the outside of the tub. But now we have a bathroom that is like the states!!! I am still going to take pictures I just haven't yet sorry. But it's awesome!! I love it. And I have Pulgas. I hate pulgas. I keep forgetting to tell you about them. But I have had them Pretty much my entire time here. They are worse in the smaller towns like Muermos. So hopefully I don't get stuck with them my whole mission like Elder Richan. You should see his legs. Freakin nasty because he scratches and they break open and bleed. They are like misquitos. But a Pulga is Flea. It's because there are so many dogs here in the streets. They bug me so bad. So we have to spray our house with Raid all the time so the fleas leave. I did that yesterday. It sucks pretty bad.
So anyways. We had a special Devotional the other day. Elder Snow from the 70 came and talked to us. And also President Corbridge and President Rappleye was there. So we had 2 members from the 70 and President Rappleye. It was really awesome. He spoke on what we need to do. Using the Hymns when we teach. They teach basic doctrine. So it was really sweet. They invite the spirit and everything. Set the mood. I've only used them in the Family Home Evenings. But he said use them in with the investigators too. Elder Snow doesn't know Spanish so when he spoke President Rappleye translated for all the Latins. But it was awesome. I understood pretty much everything. It's easier to understand the Greengos than the Latins so haveing this conference was easy to understand the Greengos. Having a latin comp helps a lot. But the conference was so sweet!
We are starting to find more people so that is good. And we are starting to teach a little bit more I think. Maybe about the same but oh well it is good. And The language is coming better and better. I have a sweet little activity-display for the Plan of Salvation that I'm going to take a picture of it and send it to you. I'm coloring it right now. It's pretty sweet. I hope you like it. I got it from Elder Cayoja. But we are teaching Pedro, Latica, and their son Ernan. And also Leonardo, and also Hna. Lucy and also Irene. Thay are all awesome people. I hope they do good in their lifes.
.Well I love all you guys!! I love seeing pictures and hearing about everything. I really am doing good and I know that everything you said is true about Christ in his Birthplace in all those places you went. That is so awesome! But I know that he died for us and that he is our Savior and Redeemer. He loves us and wants us to live with him again and we will. I know that we will all live with him again. This is an amazing place and I'm glad that I'm here in Chile. It's amazing and I love the people. I miss all of you guys in home every single one of you!
Love this couple!
