Week Two

My zone leaders left this last week which is so sad! but I got a lot of pictures for you before they did. in my district. I have Hermana Child, me, Lauder and Mcintosh, and Elder Payne (from the consulate) and Hancock. I love them all. I haven't met a single person serving in my mission which is lame but it'll be ok. Everyone in my district got here the same day as me. My companion is from southern Cali and then moved to Washington before her mission. The gift of tongues is real. that's all I have to say about the language, I'm still not good but the Lord is blessing me everyday that I try really hard. conjugations are starting to make sense and I'm learning escrituas and new vocab every day! :) as far as people I've heard from, you Kozmo and Conner and Mckay :) so not many but enough to look forward to email time.

This week I had the opportunity to listen to president Holland speak to us. (live video broadcast). it was amazing mommy. I started off the week really frustrated and upset about Spanish and with my companion. but we worked through things and now we're like best friends! Our whole district is getting closer everyday. I love my teachers here too, they're so nice, Hernandez is definitely my favorite. he's really helpful. I've been working out too. A LOT. don't tell Brenton but I love the burning awful pain :p it's like the best stress reliever here at the CCM (MTC). and mom you're gonna be so jelly! I eat fresh fruit every single day! It's amazing, I learned how to eat a fresh mango like a Mexican! and they're sooooo sweet here! It's incredible, also the pineapples and apples and bananas every day! :) I eat so healthy! most of the time that is, Nutella has become a love and corn tortillas. and ice cream every now and again. I also forgot to tell you last week I met Elder Bednar! He came here to speak! it was incredible!!  I've decided you're gonna have to send me some fiber one bars and some mac n cheese :) can someone say care package? Anyways I'm having so much fun here and I love everyone so much, I miss you so much!
