Hola Familia!!!!
Spanish is going great (can't you tell????).
Anyway, the MTC is really pretty much the same this week. Its going well and the Spirit is strong here. I really am learning the language at a pretty quick rate and so thats a blessing. My companion Elder Smith is having a hard time with it so lessons are a little awkward because I have to do most of the talking. Hey, remember Michael Sharp? I guess him and Elder Smith were like Besties and went to Dixie High together, which kind of blew my mind that he knew him, and was his best friend. its CRAZY small world I guess. Jeff and Mall, your baby looks just darling in my combat boots. I Love her already! I have heard from everyone else that your pretty excited about her too haha.
Anyway something cool happened. I swapped ties with Hermano Hernandez. Which honestly could have been one of the top 2 or 3 moments of my time here at the MTC. so far anyway.
I learned that something really exciting they do here is wait until your bags are packed and you are waiting by the travel office before they tell you if your visa came through or not haha.... One of my buddies who is going to Honduras had this happen to him. He was denied like as he was getting on the Van to get outta here haha so I guess we'll see how Argentina visas are different in a few weeks. I am SO STOKED to get to Argentina. I leave on August fifteenth and so I'm just about a month away. I am way excited. I'm only DL for another week so I will be able to focus better on the language study and on my personal goals of finishing the NT and the BoM. I'm pretty excited to finish the BoM because its just like really good and I feel the Spirit when I read it. Plus my reading of it has helped me in the lessons with our investigators so much its crazy. Like a scripture will come to mind that helps answer any questions. And I think Teancum should be recognized as the first super-soldier... like the first Ranger or something gosh he's way cool can't wait to meet him. Anyway..... Life is good here. I got a few letters from the 7 year old girls primary class and alll the other elders were jealous when I told them how many girls were writing me haha.
But anyway.... these weeks have gone by way fast. I can't believe how fast it's going. The gym is open again so I don't think i'll be playing anymore extreme bochi ball or croquet.......so thats always good. Thanks for all the letters and the love. The GPS thing sounds legit and I can't wait to be tracked! hahaha
Okay love ya all.
Elder Debull (how Hno. Hernandez says it)
