First, Tell sister Kenney that because she taught us how to sing really has helped so much and idk i just am so greatful for the opportunity i had to learn from her. (hey put that story in the Ensign so i can be famous for something:))
Wow thats so sick that micah is home! weird how fast time flies....i litterally feel like he just left! CRAZY!! Now hes gotta just get married quick to keep the tradition goin;) haha
hmm wow scotts science project is interesting! good to know because currently i am trying to revive our dead lawn down here so maybe ill buy some sprite to put on it hahah we will just see.
The Cabin.....holy cow....its INCREDIBLE!! i cannot even imagine how it will be to actually be in there...so much space...so nice...haha itll be such a difference from here haha but a good difference:)
no still havent gotten the picture book, we will see tommorow. but ill just keep on waiting:) oh and the hair stuff is the crew little cup of cream stuff ha but if you sent the blue tube i will gladly still use it:)
HA thats so funny to remember that when we would travel and go to churches in spanish countries i couldnt understand a thing and it was sooo boring ha but now to think that i could understand absolutely everything is pretty cool:) i have been trying lately to focus more on the sacredness of sacrament and studying a lot about it and it has really made that ordinance so much more meaningful. I have a whole new apriciation for the sacrament and everything with it.
WOAH! rachael cant be going to dances?! that is just not right....shes too young!! ha so odd to imagine her there....creepy....hahahahhahah just kidding ahah thats so good that she went. TELL RACHAEL TO EMAIL ME ABOUT THE STORY!!! i need to hear it!!!!
AS for me, everything really is great! i absolutely love the food, and the culture is so cool. we eat tons of rice and chicken or sometimes potatoes but for some reason it never really gets old! so im still lovin it! i have also gained some odd love for sea food! it is soooo good! cant believe i never liked it before!! THe weather is a little rough... super hot all the time (but hey, i am using sunscreen;)) yeah elder silva and i are great! we are thinking though that next week we might get changes..but hopefully not! THe spanish is great! i dont think much about it anymore and i think in spanish and dream in spanish and so i just am working on growing my vocabulary ha but it truly is a miracle that i learned it so fast! haha i will be talking to members that dont know me and they tell me that they thought that i am close to ending my mission because my progress in spanish so i guess its going good:)
hmmm a typical day, so we wake up at 7:30 and run to this park and do our work out until 8 then we come back and shower and eat breakfast, and at 9 we starts personal study, at 10 companionship study, 11 language study, and we leave the apartment at 12:30 and maybe have a visit with someone before lunch or just contact people, and around 1:30 we have lunch at a members house (there is a lady in the ward that makes a lunch calender for us) and then from 2:30 until 10 we are meeting with people or contacting all day. and we get back to the apartment and Plan for the next day for 30 minutes then i write in my journal for 20 minutes or so then get ready for bed and at 11:30 go to bed.
That is a typical day for me! its pretty chill! at first it was odd to not have dinner, but with all the soda and bread the people give us dinner is the last thing on our minds haha litterally you cannot get people to bring water out. it is only soda....so sick of it ahhah
So this week was just a nother chill week with lots of new investigaters! we have been just trying to get new people to teach! some cool people we met is this guy from Haiti and he is soooo chill and seems really interested haha but idk the work is going great!!
Love you guys:)
