Two More Weeks




Family!!!

How has life been.  I am glad everything went well with Thanksgiving for everyone.  I wish I could have gone to dinner at that Philly place! Come visit me in Bolivia and I will take you out!! I am glad to know that at home I was a little useful, Christmas was my best thing!!
So my favorite church song is Come Come Ye Saints.  Listen to it and whenever you are worried for me or what not, think All is Well.  I love that song so much.  Maybe it's because I have so much more gratitude for the Pioneers.  Last night we watched 17 Miracles!! Those people had so much faith!! Oh I do get people to scratch my back during meetings and stuff, so all is super well!! We actullly take turns, like we did during sacrament meeting.

We went tracting the other day!! Holy Cow!!! It just made me want to ditch out and never come back to the CCM.  We got 15 references.  This family of three we talked to were so interested.  I wish we could finish talking to them.  I am about 100 percent sure they will be baptized.  A few others were really interested and a couple not so much.  One said when we gave her a pass along card said that she really needs peace and she will go.  It was such a neat experience.

Thanks for the presents!!! I put my new pillowcase on and the other girls are jealous.  So even though I didn't pass the AP Lit test, it was a big blessing to be in that class, I am able to understand the scriptures a lot more.  We went through Jacob 5 as a district and holy cow, I actually understand it.  All because of AP Lit.

All the Latinos hate the Bolivians.  We tell them where we are going and they just say, Sorry, its ugly there.  I think it is funny.  Bolivians also have the worst spanish so Jake and I will speak vastly different Spanish.

There is a teacher here who served with Devin.  His name is Hermano Polo.  I asked where he served and he made the connection and I mentioned Devin and Polo said, Oh yea the one with the butt problems.  hahahahahaha

I love my teacher and today we get new districts and latina companions.  My teacher is so funny and cute! She says funny english stuff.  My new companion is 35!!!! She was baptized a year ago.  So this will be interesting.

At tour we got confused and stuff didn't work out so we didn't get to go up to the pretty church on the hill. We will have to just come back here.  We did go get jerseys!! I got one jersey, a Chelsea jacket, pants and an extra Madrid jersey that says Parry.  Might as well.

All is well here.  Two more weeks!!! Time will surely fly now.
