Thanksgiving Week

Here's a pic I just took of me in front of the temple looking quite happy:)

MOMMA!!!

Sorry if I scared you by not emailing on monday! We had half of a p day and we went to the public library to try at like 12 and figured out it was closed until 1 which is when our half p day was over so i was super upset!! This Thanksgiving we are going to go to Hermana Betty's house and to a recent convert's house so it's going to be so awesome!! 

So, yes we use maps all the time, but we do have a gps now which is pretty fancy! I'm getting better with directions and stuff but, even the other day I was walking down the street so confident, just to find I was headed the exact opposite direction that I wanted to be heading, hahaha!! But it is going good! 

Jeffery and Emily are still doing awesome!! They speak English and Spanish but we teach in English because thats what they prefer to listen to. 

So don't hate me but my camera is in a car at the mission home right now and I am at the visitors center so pictures will not be coming through this email but I will run over and go grab them as soon as I can and try to send them today!!! I hope you guys enjoy your thanksgiving at Grammy and Grandad's!! I'll try to get in touch with Dev thanks for letting me know! I love that kid so much!!

I'm doing pretty good, aside from a couple words here and there, I can understand most of what's going on in church which is awesome!! Took me long enough! Elder Silva's doing good too! We're just working hard on getting Jeffery and Emily baptised! 

Thank you so much for the package I just got it today!! How did you know that was my favorite type of cookie haha!!! I'm expecting  to stay in my same area through Christmas because transfers are a couple days after! I'm not positive on where we'll skype from, we don't email from our chapel and right now I'm emailing in the temple so I'm not sure, I'll figure that out later! 

Ok so I just ran to the car and got my camera so pictures are coming after this email!!! I love you all so much and pray for you all the time!! BYE!!!!!

Brig and I got to email back and forth for a bit and here is one other great word of wisdom from my missionary!!

Hey Momma, my Thanksgiving will be good I think! The temple here is awesome and HUGE (Jimmy Fallon impersonating Trump voice) and it was super cool! I just want to share that the more you share your testimony the stronger it grows, I got to see that a lot this past week which was really cool because I usually just heard other people say that and never really had that experience for myself so, I'm happy to be sharing what I know to the people here in SF it might be kind of hard for me to do that all in Spanish right now but I know I'll get it down!! Love you so much!!

And here's another one of some of us in the parking lot at costco saying goodbye to Elder Martinez who is the guy next to me! Good guy

This other pic is me with a member named Orlando that makes super awesome Fried cheese!!

Here's a picture of the window outside my apartment, don't be alarmed the dragon is just a drawing on the window!!
