Final stretch at the MTC & crazy dreams :)

Hola todas personas de mi corazon!!! 
Yo quiero todos! Haha I would type more in espanol (and i'm sure in the furture that may be how I write better, at least I'm hoping so!) But as for right now I'll just write in English haha How are you all?! OH MY GOODNESS!! I got like 7 letters on Monday and it was SO great! Thank you Malia, Anna N., Sister Neilsen, Kix, Beth. . .oh Mom and Aaron ahaha and anyone else that sent me a letter! Or who sent a prayer my way, because I've definitely been feeling all of them, so thank you SOOO much! Also, thank you for the package mom! I bet my roomates that there would be another bag of wheat preztles in there haha and there wasn't! I loved the pay days though! Honestly, there isn't a whole lot of time for "Snacking" in the CCM, so yeah the treats you sent me were perfecto :)

Rockin' the Spanish, great devotionals, investigators, and surprise reunions!

Hola!

Pues. . .mi y la otras Hermans y Elderes tambien hablamos todo en Espanol hoy. . .entonces, yo necisito escribo solomente en espanol, esta bien?! Hahaha jk I won't :) I am attempting to speak completely in Spanish now though so it's great, I really enjopy doing it actually haha I haven't really kept you updated on like the progression of my Spanish, it's probably impossible to tell just through letters and stuff. . .but I have memorized my misionera proposito, la primera vision, y DyC 4 oh y la invatacion de buatismal :) which for me is pretty dang impressive! I've NEVER been good at memorizing. and most of those things I memorized in a day! I'm actually currently working on DyC 4 oh and Sanitago 1:5 (James, weird huh haha) Anyway, it's great stuff!

First real P-day letter!

HEY!!!!

How are you all doing?!?! I'm still doing soooo awesome! I am loving it, it's hard work, but the reward is incredible :)

So, as I was saying before I had two investigators Maria and Eric. Teaching them has been a rollercoaster of emotions! We have spiritual highs and times where we just wish they could understand what we have and they could just really embrace it. These first teaching experiences were mainly to humble us and show us that teaching isn't easy, and there is NO WAY you can teach with out the spirit. That has been a gigantic testimony builder for me. I can't believe the way I've began to apply the Atonement in my life and how strong my testimony of the truthfullness of this gospel has grown in jjust a short week, as well as how much spanish I can speak/understand!!! It's CRAZY!!
