¡Feliz día de la acción de gracia!

Hey fam. 

I'm feeling a lot better stomach-wise and the power's been back on for a week or so! Don't worry about the email thing either- I got it in time. It looks like the Koski family reunion was a hit once again! The shirts are so awesome and the food looks/sounds amazing. Charlotte is SO CUTE! Haha I wish I could've been there, but it's all good, there'll be plenty more to come. Grandpa's 70th looked super fun too! Feliz día, gramps!! Oh yeah and the Winters' song was hilarious- very creative. I wish I could've been there to school the boys in Rockband too.. oh well! I'm glad everyone enjoyed themselves though.

This week was a little slow, but good! Hna Hatch and I had fun trying to explain Thanksgiving to the other hermanas and I'm pretty sure they think were crazy. It wasn't one of the most delicious thanksgiving meals ever but it could be worse I guess! Our investigators are doing well but not progressing as much as we would like them to be. 

Dang sorry I just found out that Hna Keller had to go home early for health probs and I'm a little bummed out, but yeah, it was a good week overall. This morning we found out about transfers and none of us got changed, but 4 more hnas are coming to the zone including Hna Cooley and Hna Jacinto who are both good friends of mine, so I'm excited!! This month's going to be insane because we have a conference with Pres. here, then a trainers meeting in Mendoza, then my 10 month mark and birthday, then a party with half the mission for Christmas, and then Christmas itself and New Years! It's going to be insane, but we're all excited! 

On the 24th apparently we work until 6 and then we can go to members houses until 12 am. Then on the 25th we wake up at 7 and stay in the pench all day (we'll probs play games and have an asado with the 10 hnas that are gonna be in our zone)! I'm not sure when I'll call or if I'll skype, but I'll keep you updated. I hope you have a relaxing week and enjoy the cold because it's gettin toasty over here in La Punta! It's going to be a weird Christmas as far as weather goes.. But I really do love this area and this branch! Oh yeah, this week an investigator of the other hnas came to church and Hna Martinez and I actually found her for them because I had cravings for Grido (ice cream) one night and met this worker girl who had a book of mormon and gave us her adress because no missionaries had ever talked to her before and she wanted to know more, so that was pretty cool to see! She couldn't go because she was super tired (she works till like 3 am, but her mom came and really liked it. So yeah, that's all I've got. Today we're going to one of the prettiest places in San Luis with our district (which will change next week because of transfers) so it should be pretty fun! 

Love you all!

La conferencia de estaca con Pres y Hna Avila!
Recently we've been finding snakes and tarantulas randomly on the street. I found a dead one (tarantula) and have it stored in an icebreakers box in my backpack so I'll show you guys when I get back.

It's been super hot lately so we moved all the mattresses into the living room where the air condicioner is and we sleep there now. The shower sucks because we have to duck down and use the faucet instead of the showerhead, and the hot water doesn't work sometimes.

my district doing some weird teamwork thing

one of the Videla family's new baby kittens (I think there's five)

our Thanksgiving lunch: rice (as usual), beef, tomatoes, onions, coke, and chocolate pudding..  just like home! 


the Thanksgiving newbies couldn't quite handle the pigging out and had to take a recovery nap

Hna Hatch and I with our delicious turkey/chicken that we prepared.
Pudding.. mmmm. Probably just as good as any of the pies you guys ate..
