Buenas!
It was a good week! Our baptism fell through, but he´ll be getting baptized this Thursday and then we will hopefully be having another one soon. The week has been reaaaally cold. 

You know it´s winter in Argentina when...
-all of the dogs have clothes on
-no one goes outside.  Everyone locks themselves inside... even though it´s not any warmer inside because indoor heating systems don´t really exist here
-you go to bed in 2 pairs of socks, 2 pairs of tights, leggings, sweat pants, a long sleeve turtle neck, a jacket, a hoodie, gloves, and 3 blankets. And you are still cold.
-you have to wear pants underneath your skirt and fold them up, and hope that no one can see them
-no one comes to church because everyone all of the sudden gets sick overnight (for real though! within like 2 days EVERYONE was sick... including my comp! We stayed in for 3 days this week because she was throwing up, haha.. poor girl!)

Who knew it would get this cold in Formosa.. the provincia also known as ´infierno´ (which means hell in spanish because it is so unbearably hot here in the summer)?

Well... all is well! Sorry... not a whole lot going on this week!  The work is moving along and things are going better.  I love my mission! I´m so grateful to be here.  Thanks for all you do!!

P.s. for real... whoever wants something from Argentina, you gotta tell me now so I can be looking out! And to all my siblings... I need all of your shoes sizes pronto! Thanks! :)

P.p.s. some pics for you! Us hermanas and me with my comp, me with the Familia Villasanti and also some members after church, and a few pictures of some adorable puppies that I figured you guys would appreciate. :) The first one is this dog that followed us all the way home! We named him Rufio, and I was sitting just inside my apartment trying to give him food and he just climbed right on into my lap and fell asleep. So cute!! Hahaha. The other is a puppy of a family who are members.  Her name is Nieve (snow) and I am in love with her... she is the cutest laziest little chubby puppy in the world!!! Awwww :). Don´t worry, I still have my profound love for animals. :) My companion loves me for it. hahah
