Picture of the Uruguay Montevideo missionaries.  Where's Waldo, I mean Zach ...

We just received in the mail a memory card from Zach's camera.  It included several videos and pictures.

A beautiful summer day in Uruguay (December 2012).

 

 

 

 

In this video, Zach is stumbling a bit with his English.  I think he is "excited" and "pumped."  What do you think?

I found out two days ago that we had p-day today (Tuesday) instead of Monday.  Sorry I wasn´t able to let you know!  I want you to know that everything is good and me and Elder Pointer are healthy and safe!

This week flew by really fast!  Elder Pointer and I have been going to work each and every day and the week seems to go by so fast.  The time is flying by and it's a little scary.  We got change calls yesterday and found out that Elder Pointer and I will be together for another change here in Canelones. We're both excited to be together for another change.  We get along great and we´ve found some awesome investigators!

It was awesome to hear from you and to hear that everyone is doing great!  I can´t believe we have 22 missionaries out from our ward serving - that´s awesome!  I´m so excited for Michael Gardanier to get to his area.  He´s going to love it! He´s going to learn so much and grow a ton. I was just thinking the other day about my first day here in the mission and the things that I've learned. I feel like I´m the same person, but at the same time I feel like I've changed a lot for the better. I´m loving the mission and am having great experiences here with Elder Pointer. We are working hard here and honestly talking to everyone that we can. We´ve found some good investigators but we´re also still looking for more.  There is always someone ready to hear the gospel!

It was awesome to hear from you guys! I can´t believe the Ruckus Crew has officially left!  It's so cool and I can´t wait to send them all letters.  

The time is flying by so fast and I honestly can´t believe it. It's actually really scary.  I'm trying to take advantage of every second and just enjoy the mission one day at a time.  I love it here in Uruguay. The people are awesome and I love them all to death.

The other day we had a zone conference and President Armstrong came and talked to us and shared some awesome scriptures to help motivate us.  He is an amazing man and is really nice.  After he shared his things he than called me up to share my testimony with the zone.  He didn't give me any

It was awesome to hear from you.  I can´t believe Murph is in the MTC!  I´m excited to send him a letter and ask how things are going.  I know Erin Elmont, so I'll be looking out for her.  That's cool that we´re going to be in the same mission.  I loved hearing that the 49ers lost because my companion, Elder Pointer, loves them.  I told him that the 49ers just couldn´t handle Dennis "The Menace" Pitta! 

This week was a great week with Elder Pointer!  We get along great and we have been laughing a ton.  He is really sarcastic and has a dry sense of humor, so he really makes me laugh.  He also told me the other day that he doesn´t know how I smile all the time and asks me frequently if the muscles on my face hurt because I smile so much.  Good ole Elder Pointer!  Anyway, we are honestly having
