Hey momma we are writing today instead of tomorrow!!! It’s because
we only have 3 computers at the church and there are over 30 missionaries in
our zone so it takes forever if we all write on Friday. I can’t believe it’s
2014! The people here are crazy on New Year’s Eve. We had a hard time getting to
sleep because of all the fireworks and stuff. We stayed up and watched "The Best
Two Years" and then went to sleep at like 12:30. Yeah, almost all the candy is
gone and I’m trying to ration the peanut butter and Nutella:-) and I love that
you are still the health conscious mom and got me the low sugar peanut butter. ..But
NOT really ‘cuz it’s not as good as real peanut butter.
We had a baptism this week! Big Bertha got baptized! It has
been so crazy to see how she has changed! Before she didn’t want her granddaughter
Monica to get baptized, but finally let her and now she got baptized! It was
honestly a miracle! There is a picture of that. The other picture is of one of
my friends, Elder Shumway. He is 6'6''!
The weather down here is hot,
as always. I have to keep a handkerchief in my pocket to wipe the sweat off my
face every couple of minutes. It feels like I’m back home during the summer! But yeah everything is going good here. We
have a lot of potential people to baptize in January and February. Me and Elder
Salmons will probably only have a month more together. We get along well, but sometimes I want to do things one way and him another
way. But we get over things quick which is good.
I’ve been reading the Book
of Mormon a lot in Spanish which is helping me to learn more of the language. I
really love speaking Spanish and now want to learn other languages like Italian
and Portuguese. But that’ll be for after my mission. I’m sad I’m going to miss
the Gilbert Temple open house. I love you guys soooooo much and am so soooo grateful for
all of you and all of your prayers!!
