WHAT DID WE DO IN ARGENTINA FOR TWO MONTHS? WHAT DIDN'T WE? WE VISITED A TON OF FRIENDS AND FAMILY ALL OVER THE PLACE. AND WE DID SOME SIGHT SEEING IN BUENOS AIRES AND THE PROVINCE OF ENTRE RIOS TO THE NORTH OF BS.AS. WE HAD A GREAT TIME. CAITLIN LEARN LOTS OF 'CASTELLANO', NOW SHE UNDERSTAND ALMOST EVERYTHING, BUT WON'T SPEAK A LOT YET. DEREK STARTED SPEAKING CASTELLANO MOST OF WHAT HE LEARNED FROM HIS COUSINS, AND NOW HE'S A CHATTER BOX.

QUE HICIMOS EN ARGENTINA? QUE NO HICIMOS? HICIMOS DE TODO, EN CASA, CONSTRUIMOS UN BANIO NUEVO, LOS MISIONEROS VINIERON A PINTAR E HICIERON UNA HUERTA COMO SERVICIO. LES COSINAMOS LA CENA DEL DIA DE ACCION DE GRACIAS PARA 35 DE ESTOS, Y NOS DIVERTIMOS MUCHO HACIENDOLO, AUNQUE FUE UN TRABAJO BARBARO, VIAJANDO EN COLECTIVO CON EL CALOR QUE HACIA Y ACARREANDO A DEREK CON NOSOTRAS. VISITAMOS MI FAMILIA, TIOS, PRIMOS, HERMANAS/O, Y AMIGOS/AS Y RECIBIMOS MUCHAS VISITAS TAMBIEN. LAMENTABLEMENTE NOS OLVIDAMOS DE SACAR FOTOS CON ALGUNOS DE ELLOS. PERO HAY MUCHAS FOTOS PARA MOSTRAR DE TODOS MODOS. CON CAITLIN, ANDUVIMOS EN PUERTO MADERO, LA COSTANERA NORTE, CAMINITO, LA BOCA, EL CENTRO, RECOLETA, Y POR SU PUESTO LA PROVINCIA DE ENTRE RIOS, COLON Y SAN JOSE DONDE VIVE MI PAPA AHORA.
LA PASAMOS MUY BIEN ESPECIALMENTE LAS ULTIMAS 3 SEMANAS CON DANNY ALLI, LIBERANDONOS LAS MANOS UN POCO (de Derek) A CAIT Y A MI Y DANDONOS UN DESCANSO.

THANKSGIVING

WE COOKED A THANKSGIVING MEAL FOR 35 MISIONARIES. WE STARTED COOKING 2 DAYS PRIOR TO THANKSGIVING. CAITLIN, AND I TOOK THE TASK TOGETHER WITH FOUR OTHER WONDERFUL SISTERS THAT HELPED A TON IN THE MAKING. NEEDLESS TO SAY THE AMERICAN MISSIONARIES LOVED IT. THERE WAS SOOOOO... MUCH FOOD....
