a lil toasty

hayall!
guess what, wednesday elder foster of the 70 is gonna come speak to us missionaries! woohoo.he spoke in the last general confrence. we are all pretty excited. guess that mewans i need to polish my shoes, haha but i clean them and 5 min outside and they are gray again. oh my shoes are ok. i had to replace the sole and now they are not the same :( but they still work and should hold up another 6 months.

update on fabiana, she is going strong, yesterday she only smoked 3 cigarettes, when usually its 20 so we are pretty stoked for her. we really dont do anything, we tell her about a commandment, read a scripture or 2, listen to her and what she feels, we tell her to pray and she says ok and then goes and does it. she has been truly prepared to change her life to follow Christ. she has alot of things that she has to change and its no where near easy, but she has the faith that this is true and she knows and believes that she will receive the strength she needs so she does it. i love her answers, when i ask if she will live one of the commandments she just says "well obviously, thats why your here, to teach me how to be better" or some thing like that but in spanish. haha. she is truly amazing and i dont feel worthy to teach her. she has a inner strength that i have only seen in a few people throughout my life. when she says she will do something she does it. its because she feels that this is the true gospel of Jesus Christ,  and she has felt the peace and hope that comes with it. ahh i love her!

im doing good, the weather is crazy, one day its super hot with the "north wind" that everyone here is afraid of, its a hot wind that comes and then its cold at night, and then the next day it will be super cold again. today i got a little sunburnt playing soccer with our zone, haha i still cant play but i made 2 goals, woohoo.

i cant remember anything else we did this week, haha. the weeks just go by so fast. we are working on finding new people, but i guess we are always doing that. and we have started doing activities in our ward cuz no one does them and its a way to get the support of the members so our next activity that we will be planning is a talent night, hopfully we will actually plan it before the week of. any tips on planning an activity when you have absolutly no time to sit down and actually plan ? :)

all is well in argentina. we are excited for wednesday and for general confrence woohoo! a cant believe it will be my 3rd in the mission. crazy!!!

i love you all, thanks for you love. keep praying!

con mucho mucho amor de mi grande corazon
