BREAKING MYSELF IN!!! One more week down!  I know I say this every week but I don't understand how it's already P day again haha.  This week was super good!  Its starting to get pretty cold here in Coahuila!  Pretty sure it gets as cold as Utah but the only difference is that it doesn't snow haha.  Our houses don't have heat so I'm gonna be sleeping in my coat lol.     This week we worked our tails off!   We got 20 new contacts and a lot of them have a lot of potential.  We have four baptisms lined up for the next couple of weeks!!   This week we did a lot of the same stuff each day, we leave the house around 11 or so (only during training), we go to our appts, lunch is at 2, and whenever we aren't teaching at an appt we are contacting and looking for new people.  We walk sooooo much.  My feet kill ha.  We met some awesome people this week who are super prepared!!  We were walk...

Week 2 in the field!!     Hola everyone!! Sorry i didn't write last week!  These last two weeks have been the best, and most exhausting weeks of my life.  Sorry for my grammar, this keyboard is terrible.  I cant believe Its already another pday.  I'm convinced time doesn't exist in the mission.  If time keeps on going this fast, my time to come home is gonna be tomorrow lol.          I just gotta say that Mexico is completely different than the states, but I love it.  Being here has been so humbling, and has really made me truly grateful for how good of a life I had back at home, and how good it is now too.  I am gonna be taking a cold shower for the next two years, yikes.  The only way to get warm water is to buy gas and connect it to your house, and Its super expensive so Idk if we are dong that.    Yesterday and today I killed about 25 spiders.  I felt like changin...

MADE IT TO SALTILLO!!!!!!!  Hola familia!!  I made it to Saltillo and its my turn to email now!! We got here around 9 and got to the the presidents house around 10 or so.  Maybe a little later.  They picked us up from the airport!  I sat in the back of the mini van on the way to the house haha!  We got here and talked to president for a little but, then we had breakfast!  We had kneaders style french toast and it was so good!  President told us a lot about the mission and expectation and commandments we have in the mission.  We are expected to two baptisms a month! crazy.  Then after breakfast we got to sleep for a while and that was really nice.  The bed was super comfy.  Their house is sooo nice.  Is the mission home gonna be this nice too?  we just got done eating lunch like 30 mins ago or so.  We all introduced ourselves and went around the table talking about ourself, so Pres and Sister Ca...

 Last week in the MTC!! Can't believe it's already another p day.  Time is going so fast, its crazy.  It feels like I've been in the MTC for 5 months but it also feels like its only been a week.   Not a ton happened this week so I will keep this email pretty short, and I don´t have much time because we are going to the temple today!!  I will have a better email next week cause ill be in Saltillo baby!!! First off, conference was AMAZING.  Conference in the mission is one of the best things ever.  Not only is it a break from classes all day, but we get to hear from the General Authorities.  I have never payed such close attention during conference before, and I learned so much.  It felt like all the talks were written just for me.    Thank you for all the birthday wishes! You guys are  the best!  It's always fun having conference on my birthday.  My district sang happy birthday to me 19 ...
