It's Just 3 Measly Hours in the Week....




OK, so these are not in his order but you can figure it out:)
So the first pic is just epic, no description required.
The second is of when we made almost a whole bag of rice into rice
pudding with french toast.
The third is our Christmas party back in December, I got to see
Sargent there, he was my MTC comp.

To Bart...
My hot week had some rain thrown on it one night when we
decided to keep the windows open to watch the lightning storm in the
distance. I woke up with my bed half soaked and a rediculous wind
coming into the room blowing leaves from the trees in front straight
into our little abode. But to be honest i think it is kind of cooling
down a bit. They call it the summers storms here when all day it is so
hot it evaporates all the water and at night it all rains down again.
When the sun comes up in the morning it evaporates it all and the
cycle starts all over again. The other day it dumped for about a half
hour right at mid day and when it stopped i could see all the water
going back into the atmosphere from off of the scorching hot streets.
The humidity was out of control but it was sweet. We have this new
family that lives way far out in the middle of a bunch of grape
fields. The other day we went all the way out there (one hour bus ride
to a 3 mile walk on dirt roads) and got to their house and they
weren´t even there, so we plucked some fresh grapes out of one of the
fields and snacked on them for a minute waiting, they never came so we
went all the way home again. It was way cool and I love the
experiences that i get to have here in Argentina, they are so cool and
precious to me. Keep it up dad your awesome. I think it would be way
cool to have my last interview with you leading it. I dont know if
that could work, wishful thinking i guess.

Hi Mom,
I have just recieved the worst sun burn in my whole
mission. Yesterday we went to play some soccer and a bit of kickball
in a big open field. We stayed there for maybe 4 hours running around
and diddle daddling. When it came up to the time to leave we realized
we were glowing a bit, and as the day went on, we reddened and
worsened and its just great! Ive got the best farmers tan ever. But
besides that it doesnt interfere with the work, besides the fact that
people just stare and laugh at us that we are all red gringos. We keep
finding these miracle people in the street and from less active
families, but the problem is that no one wants to come to church! Man
its a real pain, its just a meesly 3 hours in the week, just 1 hour to
stoop to just going to sacrament meeting. It is not impossible to go
to church. Man it really grinds my gears the excuses that people put
in front of themselves. But thats why we take the spirit to their
houses because sometimes when they say their excuses, and the spirit
is there, they come out and either say what the real issue is or they

promise they will come. I wish the people could have the presence of
the spirit around them at all times, if that was the case they would
come running to the church twenty minutes early every sunday. Sorry
for that hah, its just how it is. Its the best time of my life and i
cant tell you how happy i am to be here.
With love, Elder Hayden Summers
