Week 7

Well its been a little better week but not the best. I've found it fun to look for the most crazy things to happen on a motorcycles.. people with ladders I've seen 7 grown men on one moto,I saw a lady breast feeding and driving at the same time.
 Its getting a little hotter around here but I'm just living with it summers always went by super fast for me and I feel that this is just one big long summer I've been gone for 4 months now and its crazy.
 We had another baptism this week that was pretty good. We have 9  in one transfer we've had  x2 the number of baptisms my companion has had in the last 8 months. We been doing alot of contacting but were getting this done down here.
 Things are good getting hot I could use some normal food sometime in the next little bit.. we eat alot of the same thing hah but ice cream is good. I miss milk like crazy 
Love Everyone

What a week!!!!!!

Its been one long week this week...Monday  P day  on Tuesday .It was awesome it rained alot of the day and was just nice and cool.. 
A member family called us and asked if I could come work on there car they didn't know what was wrong with it so we went... I ended up tearing out a radiator and welding it and fixing the main hose  line with a bike tube 2 zip ties and some wire hahah guess it pays off to be a red neck some-days hahah. They invited us to come over the next day!!! On my birthday they made me Empanadas and a Tarta which is just a cake that was great!! Then that night we went to are investigators house and they had a Tarta for me as well pretty awesome i thought. That night they decided to be baptized as a family so the next day we had to go to central ,which is like a 20 min bus ride and we had to marry them so they could be baptized.We got all that worked out and did all that fun paperwork stuff and the next day we baptized a whole family I mean I've been here a month and baptized 8 people.
My companion keeps telling me I'm going be a baptizing fool. 
But just been a long week seemed to drag on... sorry i didn't write yesterday it was a holiday here so everything was closed and so we had our pday today... and on my birthday we had a district meeting and I had two letters in the mail from Kayla so that made me super happy.. I got to baptize the father and the oldest son!!! The oldest son is 15 and bigger than me

Week 4-----Birthday Week!!











This week has been great we had another baptism and tonight I get to help marry a family that is planing on getting baptized next week. Its getting hotter and hotter everyday but its just starting to feel like summer back at home. 
I've been kinda getting better at Spanish and everything that's going on I guess.
 We had a multi zone meeting this week with a "70" it was kinda cool I guess I didn't really under stand a thing but I was there I guess that counts. There were white people there so I kinda just stared at everyone like a dog watching TV. 
I finally had a Argentine  BBQ and oh heck I was in heaven I had 3 in 2 days!!
 Things here are good I guess I don't know what all to say cause still just trying to under stand.
I played fut-ball con la chicos yo found out that I'm pretty solid compared to all them they would run in to me and just get layed out. 
I turn 19 this week I'm pretty excited I guess just another day in Formosa I'm almost done with the Book of Mormon in English.. Spanish is next hahha love you guys 
Love Elder Seamons or as they say here "say om ons"

This week was a great week it was a little diffrent than normal, but good i really need to learn to love the people here... its just kinda hard all the people think im stupid cause im white and cant speak spanish yet but i know more than almost everone here... just like easy stuff like how to clean and work... but things are going great i have another baptism on Saturday. It's been raining a just perfect amount for me at least. Everyone is wearing heavy coats and scarves. I've helped a few people get there cars un stuck out of the mud I guess all that time at sandy beach getting stuck came in handy . I went on splits with Élder Naumann who is from arizona... that big storm that was there hit his house i guess. It was nice to have some one to talk in english with.I learned alot that day and almost got eaten by a pack of dogs..I talked to Élder Gowans today my compainon from the MTC I guess he got bit a few days ago haha We had 6 new investigators at church this week.  We had 14 people tell us they were coming but it rained super hard on Sunday and when it rains here no one leaves there house... with it raining we got a phone call and told that we had to move out of are house to a different one!!! So I got to move but im okay with it cause its alot bigger and I dont hit my head on everything ha. But thing are going great here making it. I won't lie its rough here but I'll live just gotta give it time... we did service this week was super fun I got to wear normal clothes and all the kids here keep asking where I got my clothes .I look so amerincan its funny to me everyone one here trys to look like there american but there still living in the 90s hahah

He's way good at soccer I'm only good cause I just stand in front of the chicos <( boys) and they just stop cause I'm a lot bigger than all of them..

Brother Chappie told me if I ever come back after my Mission he's gonna take me hog hunting hahah. They just had a baby the first day I got here .  Elder White is my zone leader with Elder Newman he plays baseball too so we throw a rock around sometimes.
 People wake up at like 8:30 or 9 ish and sit around tell 12 eat a what they say is a big lunch.. then take a nap tell 5 ish... then just sit around and drink beer and mata...
 I can out eat most the people here its kinda funny cause they wonder where i put it all haha!! and beer here is so cheep like so cheep so alot of people dirnk... for two beers is like 10 pesos and there about the size of sparkling cidder bottle.. so yeah.. there's like no driving laws so people drink and drive... and the police here do nothing about it....  um I don't really know what to say... sounds like everyone back home is doing good sounds like a few of my friends are getting married and  just doing alot of normal stuff.. well love you guys!!
