Yeah I decided to write to Weston...
Ummm if you get a good enough map of Cordoba you need to find the river, that isnt La Cañada... Here let me just send you a google maps
There
So this week, was fairly uneventful. We did the same old same old. Worked, talked to people, did service with Dario, Oh and we looked for a new pension.(IE pictures). The giant pizza is from two weeks ago, along with some comics about the mission =P

Well seems like things keep plugging along. We have another baptism here Saturday. Then next week I have general conference!!!! whoa! In two months I will have a year in the mish. *Freaks out flying around like an airplane making jet noises* PPPPBBB lol Not really. I dont want to get on any planes anytime soon.
Last week the Conference with elder Arnold was basically a huge cane drop. Cane Drop is when he kinda yells at everyone and gets really emocional. Some do it by screaming, others by guilt. he did both. Way yo go 70 powers... =P No but we talked about alot of the new doctrine of missionary work. and how we have to really get it all going on, because the Lord really wants to increase the pace now.
Whoa. Landon is gonna be home.... Trippy. and Sam... and Chris in 3 or 4. What is this? hmmmm
yup the library will roll on. they cant close it as much as they may like to. Keep on keeping on mum. Roll on family roll on crew... oh alabama hahahaha
Well Xio is friends with Linnea, and Linnea with Katie, then Katie and brittany hang out, and Sarah and brittany are friends so it was only a matter of time. Its probably funny because Sarah, and Xio and Brit talk in Spanish and Katie and Linnea are most likely lost. =P dont send that on... lol
Oh well things happen like that, so not entirely surprised with anything. I did hear that San Fran burned. Had any fires going down this week?
You got what kind of shoes? This requires a picture. Yeah go ahead and send it. I mean if we start now it might get here for Christmas.
" Me: Yeah I got a package coming... Comp: but so is Christmas... Me: ahugggghhhh"
Well I hope that you now have sufficient of a response from me. I am doing well, salud, dinero, and amor.
I hope you all have health, money and love(cuz I have lots of the last one for you all) and that you enjoy your week.
Bye Bye for now

Ben titled this one: "Happy Grandparents' Day!" in honor of Grandma and Grandpa Ludlow's 50th Wedding anniversary. There was a big get together and most of their family, including their 5 sons, were able to attend.

Dad. Picture. BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA =P

Can you send me that slideshow?

Bueno

this week I got transfers. I am staying in Ayacucho with elder Hayes. Wooh 6 months in the area. Now I am gonna baptize a ton. Well this week we had conference with Elder Arnold of the seventy. First zone conference and then Stake Conference. Hes a really great elder very spiritual, and all my investigators that met him told me that they were reminded of me =P I dont cry nearly as much as he does. But overall very good. Little short, but health is all well, along with money and all I am happy =)

Well gonna tell you about my adventures this week, but next week.

Ben titled this one: "9/06/2010 (I'm not that creative with titles...)"

Jaajajajajajajajaja mmm yeah poop!!!

I kinda felt like that little girl from the exorcist that throws up pea soup =P

Mayo, is kinda like the ketchup here. It is used to cover funky flavors. and it is quite a bit different than it is in the states. It comes in bags with like frosting decorater tips.

Hahahaha yeah. The bishops wife told me the reason that they dont eat alot of mayonaisse or spicy foods... Apparently for the altitude and something about above sea levels and some nonsense. Elder Hayes asked another member and she said its just cuz they dont like it.

Its because the members love the missionaries.

Thank you for depositing the money. I am going to let it sit for a little while. I know if I take it out it should only be for emergency. I dont want to be tempted to go buy dumb things... =P

I would love music! If you can get Aly to help you to rip the cds to mp3 and you can send them via email in multiple emails. It works. I got ahold of an mp3 player a few months ago. Really any motab that we have or singles ward/rm soundtrack stuff would be great as well.

Yeah I had birthday brownies with Mama Juarez. Thats Eli, Esteffania, and Flavio (one of her "adopted" sons) They insisted on putting cream on top. It was pretty good.

The other pictures attached have titles.

Of course, at least they are realizing that its a good thing now, before they were afraid of her because she knew more than them. they have come to accept it [I think he's referring to Aly being the most effective member of an eagle project team]. Well I hope she finds something but that it all works with studying and working and social times. She is in the shark tank now mom, so she had better tell me of any cuñados that may soon be [and I think this part refers to me looking for a job and being in Provo].

Well its good they tried, its usually when they want a reference that they come to you ;) but anyways I always have the pamphlets that have pictures and I have no problem letting them use my pen. Its fine with me. I would try having like a picture or two or letting them play with you and multi task it with the parents. Or they can try teaching the kids how to pray. Dont you remember how the missionaries were our best friends when they came over for dinner because they had magic tricks and stuff?

Well this week was pretty good. We had to be on a diet because the member knew that we werent well, so we got fed little things. oh well. I had rice and noodles most of the week.

Things are plugging along. We have a potential of 12 baptisms in the next two months. We are gonna be putting baptismal dates all this week. The bishop is super stoked. I am really happy here and still in Ayacucho. I will probably be leaving this next transfer ie sunday.

Well gotta go get to work
