Day 244- 8 MONTHS!

¡Hola Familia!
Another week!! i think that the time has been going even faster this week and it´s been full of good stuff. i have 8 months on the mission today! so fast, no? brian was finally baptized this saturday and i got a good picture of us in the church but i forgot my camera to send the picture today. the baptism went very well and i was able to play the piano for all of the hymns. obispo gonzalez was the one to baptize brian and everything went very well because brian got a lot of support from the ward and his whole family came to watch him too. my dog sasha finally had her 9 puppies last tuesday morning. we all were sitting at our table eating breakfast and we heard something crying outside so we looked outside and found sasha in her little house with tons of puppies. it was too hard to count in the dark but we knew she had a ton. now the neighbor is feeding her so we don´t have to worry about the dog situation anymore until people start stealing the dogs when they are a little older.
it has been interesting living with 3 other missionaries and it has been really fun too. elder taylor really likes to cook so he makes us some pretty awesome stuff. he is going to teach me how to make bread because he can make an amazing batch in only an hour. so delicious, and sometimes when we get back a little later he makes us hot chocolate. he is my new hero. somedays when we finish everything early, we have planned everything and finished our paper work for the day, we play some intense games of uno and my companion gets really into it so its pretty fun. president petersen told me that we should do divisions enough so the new investigators from e`taylor and payllalef at least know me or e´ruano so we are going to start doing that this week. we are pretty sure that we are going to have 2 elders in zapala after this transfer but we aren´t sure if e`taylor or i am going to stay with e´ ruano. i was going to take pictures of everyone and send them today but i completely forgot... i was more focused on getting the bolsa with our packages but i still haven´t received anything. i got some awesome letters but no package. please send me pictures of the baby blessing next sunday! that will be so awesome.
its getting kind of cold but life is good. waiting for my new gloves!
we are finding some really cool people that are starting to progress and we are getting really excited. it´s funny because my comp isn´t the most confident with his speaking abilities so he just listens during the lesson and while we are leaving he gives a short quick testimony in the doorway before they close the door. he is getting better even though in public he only speaks english because he doesn´t want people to understand him. aaaaagh... but it´s getting better. the study time is just to practice the lessons everyday and we are getting better as a team. my district is doing awesome. they are all very happy and we are working hard. elder taylor is the district leader and i know that i can learn tons from him. it´s awesome living with them because i can learn so much from each one of them. i love you all a lot and i´m looking forward to hearing from you next week too!
con mucho amor y ánimo,
elder summers.
