Hi mom, Hi Jackie,

The reason my letter came so early last week was because we wrote early but usually we don’t write until 3 or 4 and today its especially late because we went to the beach!! but I have no control over what time I write, I just do what they tell me. 

    So this week we had a multi zone conference with president, that was fun! He gave a really good talk and we did some workshops and ate a really yummy lunch with mashed potatoes and I haven't had mashed potatoes since before my mission and it tasted just like heaven. 

    Then on Thursday there was a relief society activity. All the hermanas showed up in the church and cut each others hair and that was the activity, ha ha ha! So on sunday they were like Hermana Outsen, you have to come to the activity this week because you have pretty hair and we are going to demonstrate braids on your hair. so I was like okay I can do that and then when I got there I got a hair cut from some random guatemalan lady who has no experience in cutting hair who is not even a member and I don’t even know her. but it turned out alright I think.... hair grows back so its whatever and we got a new investigator out of it so it was worth it. 

     This week we had an area attack in Tzununa so all the missionaries in my zone came to my area and we all went out and contacted all morning  and visited less actives because everyone I talk to is less active I swear.  So now we have like a billion references and I am super excited for this week because I think we are going to find a lot of new really cool peeps. 

     Well thats about all that happened this week. Olman had his baptism interview and he has a little ooops in his past that is going to postpone his baptism. We are going to talk to president and hopefully work everything out soon. He is so awesome and I absolutely love teaching him and getting to know him, he is so great! His son lives in the states so if you see him tell him hi.

   This morning we went to the beach and I totally loved it, it was so beautiful and we played soccer and Frisbee in the nice soft sand and ate fish. I ate the fish´s eyeball!!! no joke. It tasted like lotion. Changes are on Wednesday so we will see what happens. I could be saying goodbye to Tzununa tomorrow, so sad. Well I love you lots, to the moon and back. and I love being a missionary and I love guatemala. I am living the dream

Love,
