I loved the picture of the week this week! so cute! and glad Jackie had fun at morp, I remember morp, good times.
so nothing too exciting happened this week! except the lights decided not to work in my house so it´s a good thing I have my little flashlight and really nice neighbors with lots of candles to spare. This week we had divisions again, I love those! I was with hermana bynton who is from utah but she only speaks spanish in her home so spanish was her first language so she is one of those double fluent folks that is super helpful to have around. she is an hermana leader and she is in my district. so I was with her for a day and a half and I was totally in charge the whole day, it was pretty weird since I am used to just following my trainer around since she knows the area and knows spanish and stuff like that. but on division day I started and directed every lesson and the day was not a total train wreck like I was expecting. so after that I have had a lot more confidence in myself so I have been participating in the lessons much more and I have had more say in what we are going to do and so basically I feel like I have progressed more in this one week than in my entire first change here! My companion is super great and I am really lucky to have her! she is like the most patient person on the planet and she is super nice and we get along very well.
Here is a pointless note for you, everyone in my zone calls me hermana Barbie, HOW FREAKING WEIRD IS THAT?! I have never gotten barbie in my life. but I wear my blonde hair in a high ponytail everyday and apparently that makes me look like a barbie. people called me that in the ccm too! pretty weird. This morning we played volleyball with another zone and hermana phillips was there! it felt just like Christmas morning!! Hermana phillips was my best friend in the ccm and I have seen her a few times in the field on pdays and every time I see her it feels catching up with one of my good friends from high school because she is awesome just like my good friends from high school and we just click!
in other news, Roberto received the priesthood in sacrament this week! It was super fast since he was just baptism last week but he was worthy and he understands what it is and you know the rest! it was pretty sweet!! Well I love you very very much and I miss you and I hope having the Mitchell's leave doesn't kill you. Oh and I brag about my family whenever I get the chance because you guys are the best humans on the planet!
con amor,
Hermana Barbie??..
