Hello! 01/13/14

Hey family and friends! I hope all is well. We had.... no surprise here... another crazy interesting week! haha. Ill share a few things with you of what happened this week...

So the first thing interesting that happened this week... is that on wednesday we had to babysit the hermanas house for like 2 hours! haha what? Well so the house of the hermanas in our zone is kind of junky. And the owner of their house went by one day, saw the bad state of the house and said "im gonna send a bunch of workers to come fix this up!" soooo.... the hermanas just have random worker guys coming into their house at random times on random days and like... its weird. Anyways. So the hermanas shouldnt and cant be alone in the house like that with these guys, but they dont want to leave these guys alone in their houses either with all their stuff. So basically someone has to be in their house at all times when those guys are there. Normally theyre looking for memebers or someone to be in the house... but theyre not always available or willing. so on wednesday the hermanas asked if we could stay for a little so they could go work and not be in the house all day because they couldnt find anyone else. So we did that. It was weird. But so we asked the assistants/president about it... and long story short, we are now looking for a new house that the hermanas can move into so they dont have to deal with that! haha. 

Another thing from the week is that we had interviews with President on friday! That was good. and it was good to see him and the hermana arrington. He basically justtalked to me about how things are going in the zone and about the parents and about making sure i help Elder Holt finish strong in his last few weeks haha. But it was a good interview! 

also we were able to find someone new this week! Her name is rosa. Shes pretty old and really funny. Shes the neighbor of Matilde! The hermana who celebrated her 73rd birthday (that foto i sent!) We met her on saturday (she was a reference) and invited her to church, and she accepted and came the next day! It was awesome :) So we`ll be working with her. Ive never taught or baptized an old lady before haha... so this will be a new experience :P

and those are basically highlight events that happened this past week. haha. A happy birthday shout out to my nephew Kyle! Happy 6th birthday bud!!!! I saw the reptile pics and that was crazy awesome! I love you bud happy birthday!

anddd just to add for maybe your curiosities sake, as of a few days ago in my personal studies ive been reading in 2 nephi, the isais chapters. And its actually been awesome haha. Normally theyre chapters that are super slow and confusing and blahhhh. BUT! Elder Holt has one of those Book of Mormon class books (Like religion 121 or something like that) and ive been rereading through the book of mormon with this book at my side... and its been AWESOME. It helps so much and gives such cool insights to everything. And so ive been reading the isiah chapters with this books and it helps me understand it alot better and makes it alot more interesting.  So im learning lots! haha. Ive learned to really love the book of mormon! And its cool because as i read it and study it in the morning, i always find an opportunity to share something from the chapter i read that morning, with someone during the day. The scriptures are true and they always work! Read them! Your life will be better that way haha. 

Anyway, thats all ive got for now. Ill send some pictures from the week. I love you and miss you all! I love the mission and time is passing by WAY too fast haha. Its crazy. Have an awesome week!

1. We went to a members house and they randomly had an infestation of bees inside the wall of their kitchen. It was gross. We took a picture with it.

2. This is me pretending the bees are going crazy and attacking me haha...

3. We went to lunch on sunday with the family that let us do skype. And we discovered this SWEET reclining chair. I pretended to take a nap. No nap was actually taken.
