hey so that is crazy to here about Tance! I can't believe that he is gone on his mission1 but he will love it! so this week we won't be doing anything. and here is why...

my comp is getting his wisdom tooth pulled tomorrow at 12pm haha so that is going to suck for him and me because i will have to be with him all week! but i will be sure to get some pictures in. and last week not a lot happened. so that is why my letter is so short. but hopefully i will have some funny stories to tell next week.

hey so this week was a really good week. we found a lot of new people and once again i was in the hospital. but once again it was not for me. it was for a new elder who is just now starting his 4th week in the mission. he has been sick for 90% if all his mission. we had a good time with him. I went down to tampico on saturday morning and didn't get to come back to my area until yesterday night. it was a long day but it was totally fun and worth it! i have a picutre i will send you. so on saturday after I ate carls jr! it was super good! and then later that night the president came to check on us and he took me out to dinner at mcdonalds. now to you guys that night might be something that sounds all that great, but to me it was an experenice i will never forget! it was a wonderful time! so that is pretty much all that happened. oh this week we were walking to a store and then all of the sudden a little kid comes running up to us and as it turns out he is a member and his family is as well. they just moved here and they want help coming back to the church! it was amazing! 

​1. this button he has in his hand calls the nurse. he called her like 10 times through out the night! it was so annoying but i dealt with it!​

hey so this week was a really good week! we worked super hard everyday this week. but on wedsensday we didn't work at all. let me explain why...

so on weds we wnet to the hospital. Not for me it was for my comp. we had divisones and I went with an Elder who has just over 8 weeks in the mission. here in the mission they all say that if you want to speak spanish fast eat spicy foods. so that's what he did. he ate a ton of spicy food! and so for the past like 2 weeks he has felt bad but it thought nothing of it. so when we had divisons on weds he felt so bad that we went to the hospital. as it turns out he has inflammation of the lining of the stomach. it was really bad. we took xrays and his whole stomach was full of gas! and he has yet to feel good. so all day wed we were in the hosptial and i just hung out translating for him. to tell you the truth it was a good experencie to just kick back relax and speak some english. haha. but we had 24 new people to teach this week! it was an amazing week!

hey so this week was areally good week! we had a lot of success! like for example yesterday! we were walking to an appointment after lunch and my comp decieded to contact someone! as it turns out that she had listened to the missonaries before but out of the blue they dropped her! but when we asked her if she knew why we were there she said ''because i have been praying for you to come back!'' can you imagaine the spirtural rush i had! i'm so happy and excited that we are seeing new things coming out of the wood work! 

Yesterday i gave a talk in church! it was on missionary work and how we are all called to do what the lord wants! and how are all called to do his work! I felt it went great! and that wee will have a lot more help this week from the ward!

That is crazy that tance and Quynn both have their big days this week! in fact we were looking at the calandar last week and all of the sudden I freaked out! my comp said ''what what what's wrong'' i told him nothing and that quynn we be married this thursday it was nuts!

hey so this week we went to the temple. And i don't know if i told you or not but that's why i'm writting today! it was an amazing experience to go again and about a year and a half of not going! I went into the temple asking for the guidence i need to better my area. and i can surely tell you that i have left with that guidences and revelation.It was amazing! I loved being there and i didn't want to leave! but a experience happened today that wasn't so great but it was funny. I was shinning my shoes to go to the temple and as i was shinning the container that has all the ink broke and black ink went all over my new shirt! I was mad because my mission president gave me to go to the temple so i had to use another one but what really matters is that i went and felt the spirit right. 

That is nuts about Tance and i still remember the first time i went through the temple, it's an experience that i will never forget! 

I can't believe that Cayden still remembers me! but that's awesome to hear about that and it will help me to keep my spirits up and worker harder everyday! 

Tomorrow I have divisons tomorrow and i'm going to another area and i'm excited to go! Here are some pictures of the temple.

oh next week i won't be writting until tuesday because we are going to the temple next week! i'm so exicted!

hey so I got your message! i love all the things you said and i love how you want to support me! this week was a really good week. I saw the blessings of just taking my mission one step at a time. we didn't have any invs in church yesterday but that's ok we tried our hardest and this week we will have to raise the bar and work harder. yesterday it rained all day and all last night. so here the streets aren't streets they are rivers so we have to be careful with all the crocidiles. this morning we woke up and went to eat a members home. my comp forgot his camera and i still haven't had a chance to get mine yet. so i don't have picuters. sorry. this week i went on divisons with my zone leaders to tell you the truth i was not to happy about it at first but as the day wore on i loved it more and more! i can't believe how fast the day goes by when you choose to have a good attuitude. I love you and i'm greatful for all the support! well that's all i have to say this weeek

We talked about what our problems were and how we can change. and I'm really excited for the change! I know that we are really going to change. Today i also talked to my mission president! he said all the things i needed to hear! and can i just say that this week is going to be an amazing week! I'm really super happy for it!

hey so this week was nuts. we couldn't work very much because of how many times we were in and out of the hospital. let me explain why we were in the hospital...it's because of my freaking shoulder! my shoulder started hurting on monday. so i told myself that if it still hurt the following i would call Sister Jordan (the presidents wife). and that is what happened. so i called her and she told me to go to the doctor. and come to find out i have gained weight. he told me then that my body has gotten use to the work outs i do. so i have to now find new things. and he even said a diet is what i need. so my comp and i are going to have a diet this week well for awhile! and for that reason we went to the doctor a few times this week. leaving us few hours to work. but the conference was amazing!!!!!! i think my favorite talks were those who spoke in spanish as their native language! we were all listening to it in english and when they told us that we would hear it in spanish we all ran into the main room to listen it was awesome! well that is all that happened! love you all!

hey so this week was really good! I hope that when you were talking to Kaylie, Lindsay and Sawyer you were talking about quynn's and lindsays wedding plans and not ours. haha. This week we only had one inv in the church but that's ok because we have been suffering for awhile to have them there. so it felt really good to have them there. his name is sergio. he is our biggest focus right now. haha. that is really funny what happened with sawyer. i bet dad will eat it in a little less then two weeks haha. 

lets see what happened with me this week....

we had divisones and that was really fun. after a hard day of working we ordered a pizza! we talked a lot and helped eachother to improve as missionaries. this week it rained pretty much everyday. so i had fun in the rain! that's pretty much all that happened this week! it's all the same old same old.
