Hello my family! Sounds like you all had a great time for moms birthday! That is great! To answer dads questions.. Allergies are great! Like one or two break outs but not bad I just take a pill and sqirt some nose spray and im on my way... I only work with other missionarys like 3 or 4 times in a change because my comp is a district leader he goes to random meetings so i work with other elders in my zone. Then divisions every wednesday night with the ward but weve only done it once. I went with Bishop he is an awesome guy I love him! We went and taught our recent converts The Paz family and then some less active members! We gave a blessing to one of the mothers of the family she has been struggling lately but it was good! I love my ward. For P-Days it usually consists of going to the stake center at 8 meeting our zone there and just play our little hearts out! soccer volleyball or basketball its great fun. this past Pday we had a dress up time with ugly ugly clothes we were suppose to buy some in the Pacas but we never had time to do so. so monday night we asked Family Paz after Noche Hogar if they had some ugly clothes and they hooked us up haha it was funny. I had like a tight tight shirt that said Unionist its like a politics thing here. and A Bright orange vest for like crossing guards and a hard hat with tight tight pants it was great! Haha fun stuff... Then after we all played dress up we played water balloon volleyball. that was way fun too and then we went and ate at like 1 at mcdonalds... then went and got Elder Nielsons new suit fitted and im getting some sweet grey pants.. Im excited.. But other then that we just play and play then chill till 5 then get back to work. Great stuff. Anywho this past week was great! We have Family Moreno and Juan Alberto that we will prolly baptize this month! I love them they are great! Fam Moreno are a great couple their names are hard so i wont even try ahah but they are great! We just have to get them married now and then they will get baptized. Juan.. what a great guy! He has the most GLORIOUS mustache I have ever seen haha I love to teach him just so i can look at his mustache. haha No but really he is great! He is one of those guys that just agrees to everything but he is slowly understand the importance of our message and how great it really is! He will be ready here in about a week or so! I love him great guy. Sorry i have no punctuation or anything i kinda feel like that stuff is for the birds if you get what i mean. Anywho.. The people in Guatemala really are ready for the Gospel! I love it. I just greif inside when people say no it kills me! Because I know some where in them they know.. They really want to be like Just baptize me already they just dont have the guts to say it.. haha But some are ready and when we teach you can tell... just like the apostles say. The gospel really does have a familiar ring to it. And when they hear that ring you can see it in their faces it is super great I am loving Teaching these people! I love it! Oh how true this gospel is. OH HOW GREAT IT IS!! We had a great opportunity to go to the temple this weekend as well. IT was great! we went with the ward. It was their ward conference this weekend so we had an activity friday night got some investigators to come it was good. then saturday morning we went to the temple. Yeah we went at 4 in the morning! haha We had to wake up at 245. kinda rough but worth it. We were able to go because it was our recent converts first time and they were going to do baptisms and we were going to baptize them but we got there 5 minutes too late so that was sad. But they loved it and walked around the temple and felt the spirit still. We did a session and it was great! That afternoon was just a fun noon we played basketball and soccer with the ward had lots of investigatos come and play and hit some piñatas it was super fun! that was good for our investigators and then sunday had the stake president there and it was really great! They extended our ward boundries so now we have a larger area but thats good cause a larger ward too! went from like 100 attending sacrament meeting to 165 attended yesterday it was great! Loving it But I got super sick yesterday! YAY haha My testimony grew.... We knocked a door and i told my comps if we get it Theres no way Im going to make it out of there without somethin extra in my pantelones so i just warned em.. sure enough we got it.. OH MY how i was praying.. We gave a good 30 minute lesson of me just holding on for dear life. Then we ended and some how with lots of stops and slow walking made it back to the house! But that holding for so long just made me sicker then ever I had no energy but I really saw the Lords hand in helping me yesterday no lie! haha I love you all and I hope all is well! I just love you ALL SOOO MUCH!! You are all the bestest! Much love and hope to hear from my sisters soon...
