Reed is one of the luckiest guys and had a family from his mission in Argentina move here to the states!! They left EVERYTHING they had and came here to raise their children in a safe and happy environment!! This family doesn't have much but they have taught me that we don't need THINGS to make us happy just as long as we have eachother!! We went over to there house tonight for Sunday dinner and Karina made us some yummy argentine food!! When we get together they are a WILD bunch(obviously...we couldn't even take a group picture without them being silly):)!! Mostly because Reed jokes and jokes with them!! But the one problem is...is that they are ALWAYS talking in SPANISH!! Even Reed forgets I don't "speaka espanol" and turned to me tonight speaking spanish!! Even the little girls try to talk to me..and when I don't respond they get louder and LOUDER!! Everyone just laughs and continues on with their conversations!! I need help getting motivated to learn SPANISH!!(you would think that would be enough)!! Anyone want to learn with me?!!!! ANYONE?????
I am so grateful I have met this wonderful family that took such great care of Reed on his mission!! What a great example of love, giving to others and staying happy with what you have!! We love you guys!!:)

That is so cool! How fun! I can understand how you feel. When we went to Spain, I had to keep reminding J that I didn't speak spanish! I guess someday we could learn. :)
That is awesome! Reed should really teach Brynley spanish while she is young. Funny how I've taken 6 years of Spanish and no "nada"! HA! If you need to practice outloud and no one is around, just call me and I'll put you on speaker phone and carry on with my day!
Its about time you posted something new! I also had a Spanish Sunday. I attended the ward conference of the Spanish branch in our stake and had 3 hours of church in Spanish. Fortunately I understand a lot and one of my counselors speaks Spanish! Love and miss you guys.
