Dear Mom and Dad,
I am certainly happy where it is not hot. Although it does make internet a little more tricky since my fingers are cold, and I can’t type with gloves on!!! Haha.
I do think I am with Zac on this one...Sorry Parents, Bingo does make you should a little...advance in age. But I am glad that you enjoyed it!
This week was really good! We certainly didn’t have the success that we were looking for in new investigators. In fact, we didn’t find anyone this week. But Hna Carson and I have done so much better with our contacting, and we have a lot of citas set up for this week, I am really excited.
Hna Carson is doing so much better. She seems to have so much more confidence, and is enjoying being a missionary more. It makes me so happy! I want her to enjoy being a missionary, and to have the hope to stay her whole time. I know she can do it, and she is starting to believe that she can do it too!!!
We have been a lot better about receiving references, and that is making so much of a difference. The ward is getting so much more excited to help us out, and they are thinking of things that they can do on their own. It is so great! My secret goal is to have Pueyrredon be a dream area by the time I leave. Right now, to everyone on the mission Pueyrredon is one of those really hard areas, where it is really possible that you wont´see any success. And I am not okay with that. Our area has so much space, and so many people. There are so many people who are just waiting to hear the gospel. We are well on our way to meeting that goal. People are less suprised when they hear of the things that are happening here, so that is great. It is starting to be normal to see success in Pueyrredon.

We do have a new mission President now. I still don’t remember his name...kinda embarrassing....but I still haven’t met him, so we´ll blame that. I think that we will be meeting him this week. That is the rumor. But who knows. I sure don’t .
I also haven’t gotten the packages yet, but the Elder who was in charge of all that was really sick, and he ended up having to have to go home because he was having some pretty serious heart problems. So there is a new Elder in there now who is getting everything all figured out. So I wouldn’t be surprised if it showed up soon.
Hna Bingham says hi! You want to know how I know that? She is here! She had to come to Bahía to do some paper work, and she is staying with us! It is so great! She got here last night, and we spent the majority of the time together. It has been fantastic. It has been really fun. I want to trade her places, so that I can go back to SAO. I miss everyone there!!!
Umm...this may "date me" but what the heck is a Tablet, and why would that have been a good win from your Bingo?
Will you tell everyone that at the Family Reunion that I say hi?! I don’t think I realized that you were going to have one, and now I am immensely jealous! Give everyone lots of hugs for me! How old is the youngest one in the family now from our first cousins? It is really weird to think that we are all getting so old!
The good news is this. I feel as if I am really starting to see some of the improvements that I have been hoping to see. It is a little sad that they have taken so long to kick in, but better late than never! It has been very gratifying to see some of the results of long, long work, with seemingly little progress, but I am now able to check off some of the goals that I had set at the beginning of my mission, and to review some of the things that I was doing, and what I am doing now, and it is really nice to see the difference.
Thank you thank you thank you for the awesome long email. I am going to print it off, and read it a little bit better when I get home tonight. I am so glad that you are all doing well, and I hope you all remember that I am praying for you every night. I miss you like crazy, and I love you even more!
