Hola
Hola!!!!!!!
Wow what a week!!!!
SUPER crazy and full of lots of activities and things going on. First of all,
thank you for all the birthday wishes, I am so blessed to have such an
incredible family and so many wonderful friends. It was a great day! We had our
district meeting in the morning and while we were there my old ward Mayorazgo
was having a Christmas party in the church. Such a beautiful birthday present to
be able to see so many of them again. So many members I love and less active
members that we helped return and are still active!
Here I am on my Birthday
Then we had a
delicious lunch and I ate a new weird thing to put on my list! It´s the part of
a fish that holds all the eggs...fried. It´s called caviar? Haha fried baby
fish :) But hey, it was actually pretty good! Then my companion got sick and we
ended up having to spend the afternoon in the room while she rested...but I got
lots of time to study, ponder, and think. It was actually really nice. :) Then
we went and visited another member who shares her birthday with me! Her name is
Giselly and she is the blessing of the missionaries, she always wants to
accompany us in lessons. She is the best.
Giselly and I...the member who shares a birthday with me and the gifts she gave me.
We also had cake at the pension at
night which was super delicious and so fun. I am so blessed to be surrounded by
wonderful people wherever I am in the world.

My birthday cake...tres leches...super yummy! And my companion at my Birthday dinner.
Blowing out my candles and my birthday dinner. :) My pensionista is the best!
Then this week we did
another division with a missionary from Australia, Hermana Funaki! She is the
best and I learned so much from her. We also had a fun ward Christmas party
that reminded me of those back home. :) Also a stake Christmas devotional where
we got to sing and I saw all my old ward of Mayorazgo again! I saw my old
pensionists and her sister and little daughter, M...! Also R...!!! She got
called to be a primary teacher in her ward now...how sweet! :) So fun.
A great week and lots
of Christmas preparations everywhere. Luckily we are so busy I haven´t felt too
homesick. I´m excited to spend Christmas here with all these wonderful people
and get to spend it sharing the glad tidings with everyone.
Please pray for my
companion, she´s struggling a little bit since she goes home in 2 weeks and is
having a hard time knowing how to handle it all. Also A... and E... R...,
F..., K..., and that we can find new investigators. :) Love you all so
much! Have a wonderful week!!!!

Fun pday last week. We went to the inca market. A cool statue thing and then the llama fur store. They have a bunch of them just full of fuzzy soft things...super tempted to buy a huge llama rug to bring home ;)
I just had to send a pic of what we ate last night for dinner. I´ve mentioned before how much rice peruvians eat here...but rice pizza?! I thought it was too funny to not share. :)
