Hahaha I loved that you took Hermana Culotta and her companion out!
She said she loved it and that you ate really fancy! But I got your letter this
week and I am sorry that it made you sad that I don't need anything but I am
just kind of overloaded.
But this week has been great! Things just clicked this week! I think
your fast helped even when I didn't know about it! L's family is amazing!
I love them so much! Yesterday we went over for her son’s birthday, and I loved
every second of it! She is doing so great with the gospel too! They are having
family home evenings every Saturday with her husband’s parents who are members,
and they really enjoy them! We were teaching her before the party yesterday and
her husband (Who is less active) was reading about repentance and after he read
it she was like when he was reading that I felt something, I don't know what it
is but I felt something! It was so great, we explained to her that it was the
spirit! She is progressing so well and we love their family so much! While we
were teaching too we asked the husband why he was baptized and he shared his
experience and how he felt the spirit at another person's baptism and wanted it
for himself! It was a perfect testimony for his wife! Everything just went perfectly!
But another great thing this week was on Saturday we had Noche Internacional that is this giant party that they do at the church to try and
invite people to come! There is a big performance and tons of people would do
their cultural dances and things and there were rooms all around the church
that were different countries! In these rooms the members from that country
decorate everything and bring food for everyone to try from their country! It
was all so amazing and I loved trying everything! The activity was combined
with another ward. As missionaries we had to perform and we did a super funny
random skit! And then we had to perform with the young men and women and I had
to sing a duet for one of the verses with one of the young women. I don't know how
I got roped into that because I haven't sung since like 6th grade but I did it.
I was thinking though even if I messed up I could have just emergency
transferred out so I wasn't way nervous hehe. But this fiesta was packed
and it made me so grateful to work with all the Hispanics, I love them all so
much and the cultures are amazing!
But I am returning my shoes today just to the Nordstrom here because
there was no paper with the shipping stuff like you said, I searched through
the boxes so many times and I couldn't find it. I love you so much Mom and I miss you more than
anything! Oh and I will send you tons of pictures next week because I took a
lot I just forgot to bring my camera here today!
Oh I forgot to say! We get IPADS this week!!! Provo monitors it all but still we have IPADS! Kind of sad that we can’t have angry birds
and teach lessons to the little pigs, but I am excited:)
