we have Nate's travel plans... he'll be landing in SLC at 10:22 am on September 10th!! (Rachel will be on the plane with him)
It´s been a pretty good week. We´ve been finding a lot of people to teach. Unfortunately it´s still pretty hard to get them to come to church. But we did get a family to come yesterday, which was pretty awesome. Last monday we did divisions with 2 kids from the ward. I went with Alejandro, who got his mission call about a month ago. He´s going to Brasil and leaves september 25th. Anyway, I was with him when we visited this family for the first time. They had talked with elders before, several years ago. We taught the restoration and it was a really good lesson. They have a kid that plays basketball who I thought was about my age, but then he told us that he´s 15, which was a suprise. He´s as tall as me, so I imagine he must do pretty well in basketball here. But anyway, the dad, Javier, the mom, Andrea, their son Alesandro, and their one month old baby all came to church yesterday.
Also, yesterday were the presidential elections. Although they weren´t the final elections, which I think will be in october. So I´m not really sure what these elections were exactly. But it was a pretty big deal. For months now there has been a ton of politcal campaign stuff going on. Every day when we walk through the center of Moreno we get handed like 20 papers from the 2 political parties. We always have to tell the people that we can´t vote.
Well, I´m not sure if I have much else to say.
I hope you guys have a great week!

PS: I forgot to send these. This is from my last area in Marcos Paz. This is the family that we worked with a lot, and the parents are going to get married. We made waffles with them one day. (my comp had a waffle iron)
PPS: And I forgot to mention that before leaving Marcos Paz, I went and visited this family. The daughter, Gabriela, was the first baptism I had in my mission. Unfortunately, the mom was working, so she wasn´t there.
