Elder Thorderson with President and Sister da Silva

Hey fam!

Well some fun stuff happened this week. But first some stuff before I forget. The mission address changed, because the offices moved. Here it is:

Misión Uruguay Montevideo

Dalmiro Costa 4635 Bis

C.P. 11400 - Montevideo

Uruguay

As far as the week... oh as you may have noticed I will be emailing you on Tuesdays from now on. The offices have their p-day on Tuesday (because there is a lot to do on Monday) so the whole zone also has p-day on tuesday. We work for about an hour in the morning, then we have our 90 minute district meeting, then we have p-day. Today for p-day, I had the TRUNKIEST experience EVER. I played catch with my dad. Well, with the president. He has never played catch before, didn't know which part of the mitt to use to catch the ball. Hahah it was awesome. Then we played soccer for like an hour and a half. Now we are here in Portones. A full.

Well Elder Belleau is treating me pretty good. We have a pretty cool area, good peaople but it is super hard to find new people to teach. But we have a baptism on Saturday, a lady who got baptized like 10 years ago but never was confirmed. So Elder Belleau will baptize her and she asked me to confirm her. Giddy up.

Other news... Saturday Elder Belleau convinced me to buy a razor blade and shaving cream, and so Sunday had my first blade shaving experience. It was pretty much great - closest shave ever. But Monday wasn't near as good, the razor blade kept catching. and today I tried again, but it just tore me up and didn't get close at all. So I think it's back to the shaver. Huzzah. But at least I tried, right?

Ummmm I think that's it for this week. Here's a pic with the pres after our Zone leader meeting. Yay. Oh, I'm going to pull out a bit of money to print some pictures and send you my 2 memory cards from Trinidad and Maldonado.

There you have it. Thanks for the news, good to here Corry is still around. Hugs and kisses to Tina, and I'll talk to you guys in a couple of weeks.

Love you!
