During changes I got to see all my friends from my first area!! IT WAS SOOOO FUN!! I was so excited, and now I am back in the same stake, so I will get to see them more!! They are so cute. They are all preparing for missions, except the one with the baby! Ahh love them so much!!
My companion and I and Colocho, aka Victor. He is preparing for his mission and helps us out a lot!!
Mi amor hermanita Francisca!!!
Mi hermanito favorito en San Martin. Its normal here to kiss the women...
but we cant kiss the men, this little guy always tried to steal kisses from me.
(I sent Morgan photos of Alex (her cousin) opening his mission call and people there! Hi, I love these pictures!!! I don't know why Ashley has to be so grown up and how I got 2 guapo hermanos....pero, les amoooooo!!!!!!
Tell us all about your new area. Your apartment. Your companion.
LISTOS! Hermana Funk is in my district, and we live in the same house!! SO FUN!! hahahaha my goodness this transfer is going to be such a blast!! My Companion is Hermana Arguello. She is from Nicaragua, and she is sooo funny! She is a hoot. We have soo much fun together. We are constantly laughing. Oh an I am back in Amatitlan. Its not the same area as my first, but we are in the same zone. My area is Las Alamedas. We have a gated resendential area, which is wehre we live, as well as an area, Los Proyectos...its like the ghetto. I LOVE IT!! The people in the gated area are loaded...like their houses are amazing, and they all have cars, which is nice for us, and they just love helping us. The members here are incredible. The stake president is in our ward, he is amazing. We ate lunch with them and their cute family Sunday. Oh you guys, I just feel so extremely blessed and happy!! You have no idea. Everyone here calls me Colocha...aka curly haired girl. I am constantly braiding the peoples hair here. The people here have never seen a white hermana. There were elders here before us, and I am the first gringa. But I seriously didn't know it was so easy to love people so fast. I just feel so extremely blessed and I am loving every second. ALEX GET SO EXCITED FOR THE MISSION! ITS THE BEST!!!! Also another gated area that is like 15 minutes in car from our house...thank goodness we have members that love to help us!
my new house mate!! |
I LOVE THIS!!!! I AM FREAKING OUT ABOUT ALEX'S CALL! SO SO EXCITED FOR HIM! So exciting that everyone is getting their calls. the mission life is the bombbb!!! He is going to love it. At first I was bummed I wasn't speaking English because it takes so much focus to learn the language, but not I can finally focus in on the gospel way more and I am loving it. I have never loved the Book of Mormon so much. It has such power.
I forgot it was my birthday until a member called me in the morning to wish me a happy birthday, then I didn't tell my companion it was my birthday until it was late...with an investigator...she was so mad, but she decided she wanted to do my make up for my birthday...you can imagine what I was thinking, but I accepted ... hahahahaha my companion is all about fashion...and I totally am not. It cracks me up....but guess what? The family of my companion is coming to Guatemala in May..like the 21 or 22, and they are going to be sealed in the temple. There isn't a temple in Nicaragua, so they are coming here and I GET TO GO!! I am SO excited!!! What a great thing. But really I am just loving life!!
We were in a house of a convert....in 15 minutes I got more than 45 mosquito bites...hahahahaha I was just laughing. My companion and I couldn't sing...we were singing hymns with the family..we were laughing so hard because I was getting attacked. hahahahaha so funny!! I itch like crazy, but I just laugh about it, because I have SO MAN¨Y! My legs and arms are beautifulllllll!!!!! hahahaha
We have a family...they have 10 kids. THE KIDS ARE WILD!!! It is impossible to teach with the kids in the room. So one of us plays with the kids while the other teaches. This day, when I was playing with the kids, the mom was actually worried because they were so quiet and behaved....she kept looking over at us to see if everything was all right. Oh but it was so fun! They are adorable. They are WILD CHILDREN, but so cute!! I used pop rocks to persuade them to play games with me to keep them occupied, and we had a blast. I didn't have all 10 of the kids, but the 6 that i had were willlllddddd!!!!!
I don't know why I focus so much on the death of our Savior...how Catholic of me, but this week I had a lot of time to think about the miracle of the resurrection. It is something I am always teaching but I really was able to ponder on it! I feel so blessed and so happy to have this knowledge, We have such a responsibility to share it with everyone!!
