members of the Barton family

dear family, hi, how`re you doin? fall here in uruguay it as full swing and i love it. the trees are different colors, the weather is a tad bit cooler during the day, and startin to get respectably cold during the night. but i love it. i couldnt think of being in a better place right now. i love salto i love the ward the only thing is we dont have anyone to teach as of right now. which is kind of a struggle and we spent a lot a lot a lot a lot of time clapping doors with little to no success. i hate clapping doors haha but i did realize this week how much of a miracle it is for someone to let 2 gringos that barely speak the language into their house and alk to them openly about god. i did realize this week how much i love teaching. in rivera we were getting about 30 lessons a week and i took teaching for granted. and now me and elder jones are teaching about 15 lessons a week. and i realize how much i love teaching and just talking with people in general. so yeah this week was just a lot of nothing but im still having a blast i love the other 2 elders in our house and i have just about half the ward convinced that i am from germany and dont know how to speak a lick of english haha. as well as everyone thinks im 30 years old....everytime i ask why they just tell me "i dont know their is just something about your face" haha but yeah we spent easter with a family called the family piedad they are a really famous family in the mission. the mom is known for being a "mom" amongst the missionaries and so she cooked up a lovely meal for the holiday. but yeah fools, hows spring in utah goin? brighton soccer how they doing? nba playoffs are goin in right now i walked into the terminal the other day and celtics were playin the knicks i believe. why isnt anyone filling me in on sports (mary) but wow april flew by fast and sarah will be graduating high school before we all know it. than uhhh megans day...haha than school will be kickin back in and i will hit my year mark haha but yeah thank you all for the love and support i love you all very much. mark tenga suerte with the 42 mile bike ride. the farthest you have ridden is 21 miles?? mark you have to ride double that...get it in gear fool. but yeah i dont have to much to say. love you all elder barton
