Week #1

Dear Family and Friends,

This week has definitely been a long week! I wake up at 6:30 and I dont get done with all my classes until around 10. And my bed time is at10:30.  haha so not really any personal time. My companions name is Elder McClelland. And its freaking hilarious because NONE of the latinos can say his name. They just call him Elder Mack! Me and him get along good! Hes from Salt Lake City and he loves football so thats okay with me! We have two other roommates and they are both from Peru so the language barrier is pretty thick. One of them snores louder than ANYONE I have ever heard. Its crazy. Not only is it loud but he breathes so fast! Haha i feel like im in a missionary movie! Well hes a pretty big boy and he sleeps on the top bunk. The other night he rolled off his bed! It was so freaking scary but hilarious at the same time! I could not go back to sleep because i was laughing so hard!

Thursdays are our P day and every Thursday we go to the temple! We are literally 20 feet away from it and it so beautiful. Look up the Buenos Aires Temple. It is one of the prettiest ones! I definitely enjoyed it very much! Also today we are having a turkey bowl :) hallelujah! There is one good football in Argentina! I will be starting QB for the Moroni District if you happen to catch it on BYU tv ;) haha. Our district has gotten really close for only being here for 7 days. But they are all way awesome!

Spanish. I eat, drink, and sleep spanish. Surprisingly all the stuff i learned in school is helping me! Thank you Senor Jones! First day we had to teach a lesson to our teacher in Spanish! Somehow me and my companion made it through! My mouth was just filled with words that i thought I had forgot! I was freaking nervous too haha. My teachers are legit! The one we have in the morning his name is Brother Pederson. Hes from argentina but he just got home from his mission in St. George! So he speaks really good english and me in him have a bond because he served in Cedar for a little bit too :) Our second teacher is amazing and his name is Brother Vargas. We all describe him as an angel or a truly exalted being. Honestly this guy is cute. He reminds of a little kid but he awesome! I wish i could send you pictures of him. You would understand haha. I love the pictures you sent me! they turned out good!

Christmas Package details. Large boxes will be held up in customs and there will be a cost to retrieve them. Unless the contents is really valuable we will not retrieve these packages.
Small video boxes seem to arrive here okay. The best way to send a package is the following: The contents must fit inside a padded 9x13 shipping envelope. It must weigh less than 4 pounds. Indicate missionary supplies on the outside. Secure package with Scotch tape so it will not break open.

Address:
CCM/ Templo de Mormones
Puente 13 & Ricchieri
Cuidad Evita
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Marco Milton
Those are instructions straight from the President :) thank you 

Well Mom, email time is done :( but it is so good to hear that everything with the family is going well. I miss you guys so much! I pray for you every night! Thank you for the support :) give everyone a big hug and kiss for me! I love you and I will be back to write you next week! Happy Thanksgiving :)

Love,
Elder Milton
