Good Afternoon! AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! Ah, it's a wonderful time of year!
Today after studies, we went and played soccer with two other zones. It was cloudy, and lovely! But sadly I got FRIED!!! My penchanista gave me sliced tomatoes to put on my face to suck out the heat. All the North americans are bright red today! :) but I enjoyed playing soccer with the Elders. We played on a small court, 6 vs 6. Every team had 2 sisters. Haha And at the very end, all the sisters played against each other . I got put on the team with Hna. Ragsdale(sister in my zone) and 4 Latinas that HATE soccer... so yeah we lost... But I enjoyed it, and I ran and played really hard. :) The Elders are always really surprised that I play! :)
This week we moved rooms, and we now we live together with the other sisters in the ward. It is AWESOME!! We decorated one of the walls in the house that we have, with a Christmas tree, and ornament globes. We have decorated our house to be as christmassy as we can make it here in Peru! :) Every day we listen to Christmas music, when we are working out in the morning, getting ready for the day, after lunch, and after planning at night. :) I love it!
The weather has gotten hotter, and I think that we will have a hot Christmas One day this week it rained. The whole day it rained! :) It was amazing! I actually enjoyed the cold. It felt like spring time in Utah! :)
This week we changed penches and now we have two. :) We eat breakfast and lunch with the sisters, and then we eat dinner with a family in our area. The family knows how to make the sisters happy, and they give us a lot of good food and desserts. Also this family knows hows to make Cheesecake, and it is soooo good! :) We ate it twice this week! :) I am so happy that we now eat with members. Our last pench, wasn't that great... so I am way happy! :)
Last week i tried to send photos, and when i connected my camera to the computer.... a virus deleted ALL my photos from my sim card... so the few photos that i sent to you all, enjoy them! :) But now that my camera has viruses .. i think i will send a lot more photos... because it can't get any worse! :) So next week i will set time apart to upload them to the computer to send them! :)
I am really enjoying this christmas Spirit, and this special time of year! :) We are sharing the churches video, ¿a savior is born?.(I think that is what it is in english...ha) We have the goal to knock on one new door between appointments :) We have giving out like 30 cards this week, and have gotten to know a lot of people. It's a great time of year! We got to watch the Devotional Yesterday... and we only saw the first part, because the internet went down and the sound didn't work for like 15 mins.. So we missed the talk from Elder Bednar and Elder Uchtdorf. But the music was beautiful, as always! :) Next year I will be able to watch the devotional in English... and I am WAY happy about that! :)
Well, today I completed my 14 month mark in the mission, and I have no clue where the time went! I am enjoying it through and through! A member said that I hardly have an american Accent when I speak... so I think that means that my Spanish is getting better! :)
I love this time of year, and I am enjoying my time here! I love you all. I hope that everyone is safe and warm during this time of year! I LOVE YOU ALL! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Until next week!
Love you all to the moon and back!
