open up the fire hydrants

Hey family. Hope all is well with ya. All is well here in chile. The news about lyndsie really shocked me. I cant believe that they are going to get divorced. I dont know what to say but i hope everything works out for the best. Lyndsie, i love ya sis and i am praying for ya. 

Um, i think you got my little packet of pics but if you could tell me so i can delete them that would be awesome. So tori i wanted to tell ya happy b-day. I hope you have a awesome one and i will have a mini party here in chile for ya. 

So its been another hard week. I figured out that our sector is the smallest sector in the mission. I have been here for 2 weeks and i have the whole sector memorized. It is insane and basically every one is a member or less active or they have heard the missionaries like 5 times. But i am trying to stay positive. We have a couple kids that we are teaching right now. We are going to set a baptismal date with a little girl named alison that we are teaching. She is 11 years old and loves the church. She has assisted 3 times now. Also we are teaching another little girl named... allyson. Haha she is 15 and her sister is a recent convert. Her sister is this awesome member but allyson is kinda lazy so we are working with her. But besides that we dont have many other people who are progressing right now. We have been walking around in circles in this small sector for the past week but hey at least i am getting a tan...well a missionary tan. 

Something cool that they do down here is all the punk kids somehow open up the fire hydrants and start playing in the water. It is cool but it makes a mess and the streets are just flooded with water. I dont know, maybe some day in the summer me and my comp will go for a swim. 

Haha well today we got to do something really cool. We went to this hill in the middle of santiago called el cerro santa lucia. It was really cool. And it reminded me how big the city of santiago really is. It is incredible, you cant even see the end of it when you are in the middle. It just keeps going and going. I am going to send some pics that i took today. 

But ya besided that not much is going on. Me and my comp are getting along...most of the time. Some times he just drives me up the walls but i just got to keep on keeping. I have realized that in the mission you really cant change much, you just got to suck it up and go with it. But ya, i also realized that i am really old in the mission. It scared me the other day but i am going to keep on working and see what i can do to this sector. Well sorry but i cant think of anything else. Hope you guys have a awesome week. I love you all tons. And last but not least ¿Go Cougars?
