8 Months: 3 Week in Temple

I cannot spell!!! AHHH Its something that I learned this week. My companion loves to speak in english and write in english... In her Daily Planner She wrote dinner... but I couldn't remember if dinner was spelled with 1 or 2 n´s.... Haha  I thought about it for 5 mins and then decided that is was spelled with 2 n´s.... Im going to struggle! 
The mission is sick with the climate change and everyone complains about the cold here. It's really nice to not be so hot all day long. I see it as a blessing! :)
The temple is amazing, as always. This is the last week and we are putting it all out on the table. I love being there, and I will take a lot of photos to remember my time here. :) I have gotten to know the sisters of the mission here, and it is sad that i won't really see them every again after this change, with the mission being split and everything. But I am very happy that I had the chance to get to know these sisters! :) They are amazing. I am just so grateful. I feel like this is the month of gratitude for me. Because there so many things that I am doing right now in my life that I need to thank my heavenly father for! :) 
I was glad that I got to hear from you all this week! I would like to say I'm sorry for being weird during our Skype call for mothers day. Maybe for Christmas I will be even weird-er! :) 
With the little time we have in our areas, we were able to teach a few people. I met one Lady that "knows" that Joseph Smith was a catholic first and then made his little group! These people know of Jose smith, but don't really know who he is!!! ;) Its sad and funny at the same time! 
I am loving Peru, and the mission. My area is HUGE!!! On foot, if I wanted to walk from one boundary line to the other it would take me 2 hours. Its HUGE! :) But the blessing is that there is a lot more space to look and find people. It's really nice! :) 
MY companion is going home after this change, and i am a lot more trunky(?) then her. :) she doesn't want to go home and all i can do is talk and thing about what i am going to do after my mission. ;) Its alit hard because 1) I am with all the sisters in the temple and all we do is talk about the food and restaurants that we are craving. 2) The whole world asks what i am going to after my mission. THE WHOLE WORLD!!! It's really hard. But I'm not homesick, I am just really looking forward to what I will do when I get home. The food I will eat, the tan lines that I will have, and the fun or memories I will make! :) 
This week I was really thinking about the temple. How baptism is the really the door and that the temple is the goal for these people that we are teaching. :) I was thinking of my last day, and how I went with mom and dad to the temple in the morning my last day. It was my first time in this special part of the temple, and the Spirit was a lot stronger there. I could honestly feel that families can be together forever. That my family is forever. And now in the mission, I know that the families that I am finding and teaching can be together forever! It is so amazing this life, the temple and the experiences that I am having here in Peru. It's amazing! I love it here. 
I love you all, and I know that this church is true! :) 
I LOVE YOU!!
