NEW RECORD!!!!!

Imagine that subject line in the voice of the announcer in super smash brothers for those of you who have played that game as much as I have.

Sorry everyone for not writing anything last week, that was the fault of me being lazy and also that I had a really boring, kind of uneventful week. But this week was cooler!

Well, Thursday was Thanksgiving, which means absolutely nothing to anyone here. But its like one of my favorite holidays, so I made sure we were going to celebrate at least a little bit. I told our lunch pensionista about it and what we eat normally, and she tried her best. But instead of turkey, which she couldn't find, we just had chicken, but with mashed potatoes and corn. So I guess that works. But she also made us a delicious lime pie, so I was very happy about that. And in district meeting I made sure we sang the hymns that had to do with giving thanks. You do what you can here in the mission.  But this thanksgiving made me really grateful for how awesome the holidays are in the United States. I hope you all enjoyed hanging out with your families and gorging yourselves like the wonderful Americans you are.

So as far as the missionary work goes, we're finally seeing progress in our area! This week we broke my mission record for most new investigators found in one week by finding THIRTEEN. We were pretty happy about that. And most of these investigators are pretty solid. In particular we found a family of 5 (three of baptize-able age) named the Lucia-Ramos family, and the Guise-Chavez family. Who are both really interested to learn more, and both accepted a baptismal invitation! (if they get an answer and find out that it's true, of course) We'll be working with them a little more this week, hopefully we can get them to cumplir compromisos and go to church and stuff. 

But other than that there's not much to tell, hope you're all doing great and enjoying that it's probably getting cold over there. Here its heating up again. and it was already really hot.

love you all, say hi to somebody for me.

I wanted to put a sign here that says "Tree-huggers beware" but I don't think anyone here would get it.

So my first transfer here we found the two friendliest dogs in the world outside of an old investigator's house (but never actually the investigator). But I like to stop by that house when we have a rough day and they make me happier. The other day these dogs were outside of their house and I tried to take a picture while they were jumping up and trying to lick me and stuff. It kind of worked out
