It's another fun little chat session with Elder Merrill as I am working at the computer when his letter arrives:
Mom: You about gave me a heart attack with the subject line of your email, lol. Well we will be ready for that new date then! Can't wait to look up your new area! Who is your companion? How many of you are there? Is it a city, town or country? WE LOVE OUR ELDER!!! Love you lots son! Mom
Elder Merrill: LOL, That´s what I was going for. yep, I think that things are just a little weird because of all the missionaries coming in but we have a return date a little sooner that usual. My area is a little smaller than Bolívar. I don´t actually know if you´ll be able to find it......good luck anyway. its a small country town. A lot like Bolívar. my new companion is Elder James and there are 4 of us. we´re all American. Love you too!

Mom: Hey most favorite Missionary in Argentina!! Yes, I did, I
about fell out of my chair! CRAZY!!! Dad will laugh for sure! :) Wow, all of
you are Americans, well keep the Spanish going still, right! Funny enough, I
was wondering yesterday if you would be transferred soon since you had been
there a while! I hope your new area is interesting and can't wait to hear what
it is like. Was the roof at your last place, or this place too, a flat one
then? In turkey,which is also hot, the roofs are flat with a 2 or 3 foot wall
around the edges and the families would sleep on there in the summer because it
was so much cooler. Give your companions a big hello from us! LOVE YOU so much
son! :)
Elder Merrill: yeahhh.....the roof is flat. with this one though, we´re
able to actually get on it. there´s no ladder, we just have to climb a wall and
take a small walk along another wall to get to our roof. My Spanish is so much
better now, but I´m still working on it. I can´t wait to show you all when I
get back! I have to go after this one, so If you want to write me one last one
wishing me a good week or something, I´ll reply and then I´ll go.
Mom: Hi dearest! Be sure and take lots of pictures of your new
area, the roof, your companions, and where you go to email us! I KNOW, I can't
wait to hear you speak Spanish when you get back! I bet it will be amazing! I
DO hope you have a great week, have fun breaking in a new area and working with
your new companions! Remember above else that we are always thinking of you,
that we keep you in our prayers and we love you so very much! Sis. Harris was
chatting with me today about Julia at the MTC and she said to tell you they
pray for you every day! Sis Bahr says she doesn't know if she is brave enough
to ever try armadillo! lol Take care son and hope you have an interesting
week! We love you!!!!!!!! :)
Elder Merrill: I sure will! I have a pretty crazy week ahead of me, I´ll
let you know how it goes next week! I keep praying for you guys too! I know the
armadillo is pretty crazy, but really, we eat some normal stuff here. I hope
that things go awesome for you this week too! love you! bye!
