Life is to be enjoyed, not endured! I am a firm believer that a truly happy person is someone who finds happiness on the "DETOURS" of life! I love to smile and nothing can put a bigger smile on my face than making others smile!:) ETHER 12:27

I LOVE MY FAMILY-BE OBEDIENT- Sunday July 17 & 24, 2011

YES!  I finally received a package from home.

The famous meat - It really is much better than anything in the United States. 

My favorite part of Argentina - The beautiful sky. 
Wow I don't think I have been so excited to receive a letter like I was today!!! What an experience I don't really know what to say... Sounds like you enjoyed your time and Tate got to live his rodeo dream! I'm super excited all the family came to visit him and give him the support! We seriously have the best family in the world!!! I hope you can all rest and get everything all cleaned up from the trip and focus on the things at home!

Shad I'm so glad you enjoyed your scout camp I remember going and earning some of those same merit badges with Chase and we had a ball!  Your a stud and you just keep working on being an Eagle Scout! Speaking of Eagle Scout I don't think Tate should be driving... jajajaja BECAUSE HE STILL DOESNT HAVE HIS EAGLE!!!! haha the blessings of being the guinea pig and the oldest!  I wouldn't change it for the world!!! But really Tate get on that! Shad I love you buddy and miss waking up to you all snuggled up next to me at like 4 in the morning!

McCray I prayed every night the last 8 days that your horse wouldn't have her baby so you could be there and witness it! I'm glad to hear you'll be there to see the thing come out...jaja I sure love you champ and cant wait to go to college together!!!

Tate I sure am a proud brother here in Argentina and would really love to hear from you about your thoughts and feelings of the whole experience! I look up to you a lot for all your hard work and I'm 120 percent positive you are now faster stronger than I am and I wouldn't stand a chance if we wrestled! jajaja we will have to see how things look when you get old and fat on your mission! I love you champ!

Delanie your such a little cutie! I miss your laugh, scream and crying.... although I'm sure we could all live without the screaming and crying! jajaja I'm excited to baptise you in a year and a half and you just keep listening to mom and dad and saying your prayers at night time!!!

Dad I got your email about those missionaries in Germany and as amazing as that story was I couldn't help but think that I am one of missionaries and the miracles await us as we are obedient and strive to be worthy to have the spirit with us in every moment! I sure respect you and miss you and our long talks of life!

Mom I miss you! I'm not gonna lie yesterday I was reading my scriptures late at night when I couldn't sleep and the photo of you and I fell out and I couldn't help but get on my knees and thank my Heavenly Father for you and your sacred position in my life! Mom as I was praying it hit me that I'm never going to live at home again... I'm never going to be in the position where you and dad can tell me what to do andIi have to do it because your my parents... My entire time growing up I listened to your counsel and didn't think more than a couple minutes of it.... And as I prayed mom I had the strongest desires to have you and dad tell me thatIi can't go out with my friends and I need to be at home with the family.... This all hit me at once and I had a lot of thoughts and feelings but more than anything... Thank you for all you did and MAKE TIME FOR FAMILY TIME!!! HANG OUT! LAUGH!!!!! SMILE!!!!

I had another great week in Argentina! We are working hard and being obedient striving to have the spirit with us in all that we do! We had our first interviews with Pres. Carter and I was very 15 year old daughterwith him and his family! His wife has studied Spanish 6 months and speaks very well!  His 15 year old daughter is with him and starts her international school where they all speak English next week! I need you to do me one thing.... CHANGE MY FACE BOOK PASSWORD.... SAVE IT.... AND LET ME KNOW WHEN ITS DONE.... He asked each and everyone of us how our Obedience was and to write home and have you change it... Knowing you guys its already done but I just want to make sure! Please tell me next email if it is! I am excited to work with my new president and his family! We are getting closer to our baptismal dates on the 6th and working hard with them and ready to have other dates this week! One of my converts Marcela Deluqui lost her baby at 8 months and they had to take it out of her on Thursday and I have been super sick for her and we are praying to know what to say to her when we pass by tomorrow!

I received your package mom!!!! the one with toothpaste jajaja finally!!! It only took 2 weeks! I also received one from Cody and Lacey and I will be writing them today as well!!! IT IS KYREVS BIRHTDAY!!!!! Nana's letter was incredible and I will now write her the old fashion way jajaja! Jk its not old fashion and I enjoy hand written letters more!!! I hope to receive the other package soon! I honestly need only 2 things... I need sticky hair gel.... Its doesn't exist here.... if we don't have gorilla snot... then like some sticky bed head or something would be wonderful....And i would love some crest whitening stripes.... you can even buy them with my own money!!!! jaja

Well I  wanted to finish this letter with a thought I heard that has got me thinking.... We aren't humans having spiritual experiences but Spirits having a human experience! I pray that we can all strive to have these Spiritual Experiences more frequently...in fact enough that we begin to understand and feel what we used to feel ALL the time in Heaven... Can you imagine feeling the spirit in every second of everyday.... This is the goal.... Let us all pray and be obedient to obtain it!

With all the love that I have.

Benjamin Rod showing us how to play marbles.  He was baptised two weeks ago.
He is a model but very humble and reminds me of Justin Bieber.

WOW!!! I AM SO PROUD OF TATE!!! He is living his dream! I know he has been dreaming of doing that his entire life! Honestly I am one proud brother here in Argentina! It makes me so happy to hear that he is doing so well! I am really excited to here how all turns out!
Tate wow I'm so excited for you! You have the chance to show the Nation what you have been practicing for! Now I challenge you to get on your knees and thank your Heavenly Father for the things he has given you... the chance you have to be there, the talent he has helped you develop, the health you have, the health of your horse, a family who is so supportive and loving and drops everything to be there with you! If you will be humble and give the lord ALL the credit, and read the Book of Mormon, He will bless you like you cant imagine!!! I promise you this as a representative of Jesus Christ!!!
JAJA I cant stop Smiling!!! I am really happy for all of you to get to witness such a great time and enjoy this time as a family! Please remember to thank the Lord for all that is happening!!!
This week was another great week here in Earthly Paradise! I don't know why but this week was warm and lovely! All the kids are out for vacations... Every thing is reversed here... you guys are out for summer vacations and they are out for what would be your winter vacations for Christmas! For this reason we found a lot of people home this week to teach! Elder Schwaar and I are working great together, and are relying on the spirit to help us in this wonderful work! We have been 100 percent obedient and diligent and we have seen the blessings and have 5 baptismal dates for the 6th of August!
 The Cantero Family was a bus contact that Elder Castro and I did 2 weeks ago and we passed by their house and they truly were prepared to receive the gospel... They excepted a baptismal date the first lesson and agreed to be married the second lesson! Thursday we woke up at 5 and waited in a line till 9 so they could do their paper work! They will be married the 5th so they can be baptised the  6 of August with one of their sons Brandon who is 12 years old.
Our other 2 dates for baptism are a mom named Isabell and her son named Brandon as well! She has a lot of doubts and problems that we are working through but she loves our visits and has the desire to change her life... She smokes 1 pack a day of cigarillos but only has smoked 3 cigarettes in the last 4 days so she is doing really well!!! I stand all amazed at the things we can do when we have the help of the Lord!
I haven't received anything from you except that little paragraph for the Pioneer but I understand you are really busy helping Tate live his dream there in Wyoming and I cant wait to hear how it all turns out!!!
I don't want to alarm you or anything but our entire apartment is infested with Mites... We all started itching really bad and I would wake up in the middle of the night and take a shower because it helped me feel better.... and finally had to go to the doctor and they told us we all have mites... So we have to put everything we own... I MEAN EVERYTHING!!! In Black trash bags to kill them.. they can't live without light, and then we had to buy a cream to help the itching and pills to kill the mites... Luckily they will reimburse us! it was like 600 pesos per person! THE EXPERIENCES OF THE MISSION ARE SO MUCH FUNNER THAN NORMAL LIFE!! JAJA
I also wanted to share my testimony with you that I know that my Savior and Master lives, and we are building his kingdom here on the Earth! I know he loves us so much he restored his church and all the keys and ordinances we need to have eternal happiness... This is his church and he is guiding it through a living prophet Thomas S. Monson. I know that the Spirit is real and through him my relationship with my Heavenly Father is so much stronger! I know that without his spirit this work is impossible and nobody could know that the events of Joseph Smith really happened! I love this opportunity I have to share my Testimony, Smile and Gospel with all those who will listen and I am loving life and my mission!!!
Siga Real, Limpio y Sexyy que Dios les Bendiga en todo lo que hacen esta semana! Especialmente Tate en su sueño!
Con Muchisimo Amor
Elder Quade Clifford Foster
