It's impossible to show the eclipse through my camera, but you can see the reflection of it underneath the horizon from the camera glare or idk how it works but this pic was taken at 5:30 in the afternoon and it was super dark and cold and awesome.

The eclipse made our shadows look weird where parts are crisp and parts are blurry

I fell down the other day playing cops and robbers with some kids and got absolutely wrecked by la tierra. I'll spare you guys the picture of my hand that got shredded (you can kinda see my left hand) but just appreciate the amount of dirt. 

We passed by the temple when we visited the mission office one day this week

My lego collection. thanks mom.

THIS WEEK WAS AWESOME!!!

First off, we had another zone conference in Córdoba, which means another 2 nights in a row sleeping on a bus for 5.5 hours! It was really fun though. I loved escaping the heat of Catamarca for a little while! The conference was great, President Correa got us all really hyped to have a great year working hard. Also, since Elder Farfal is working in the office, I got to see him again! It was weird to be with him, but with a new companion as well! 

Also in Córdoba, after the conference, we got to go to the temple! It was my first time actually being able to attend since the other times I´ve been in Córdoba it was either closed or we didn't have enough time. Let me just tell you guys, if you are able to go to a temple near you, just do it. Temples are the absolute greatest, I felt the Spirit so strongly, it was exactly what I needed to start the year off right. All you peeps, especially those in Utah, TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO THE TEMPLE!!!

I picked up some nice Christmas cards in Córdoba too, I especially loved the notes from the Primary kids of my ward! Thanks you guys!

The absolute highlight of the week was the baptism of Carolina! It was such a wonderful experience. I can really see the effect that the Gospel has had on her life. She is the first person to be baptized that I started teaching. It's been so cool to watch her progress each lesson from when we started teaching. I know that the Lord has been able to confirm her testimony that this is His true church on the earth. I know that as well. The Church that Jesus established when He was on the Earth really is restored and we can all benefit from it's message!!!

You are all wonderful, God loves each and every one of you.

My district in front of the Mexico City temple

Colory houses

I jump on this green dot in front of our house every time I pass it. It's the small things.

My main man Elder Kotter and me in front of our casa

This snake climbed a tree in front of our casa and there were 8 workers trying to get it down and kill it and it was really entertaining and awesome and epic. It was a fight to the death, and the snake was a good fighter, but eventually lost to the tree saw stick thing. They didn't let me hold the snake but they said I could get a picture of it and pretend I was the one that killed it. Call me Elder Serpentslayer from now on. 

Elder Kotter (aka the best guy) and I in front of the Mexico City temple. It's super cool looking.

my lovely package from my lovely mother

I took this picture after playing basketball today. If you know me, you know there's nothing I love more than shooting ankles and breaking hoops with the boys
