Hola!
On Tuesday, it was Pioneer Day. In the
state of Utah it's a Holiday. On Monday night we stayed the night with
Sisters Iverson and Howard so we could go to the parade that was going
to go on on Tuesday morning. The parade was so much fun! Longest parade
of my life. While walking towards the end of where the parade was going
to end, we got stopped by these girls that got SUPER excited to see 2
Sister missionaries. They started talking to us and got to know us a
bit. They turned out to be hilarious and they want to have us over for
dinner sometime. We met a lot of new people. Everyone says hi to us and
it's nice. After the parade, we went to play volleyball at a church
building. There were so many of us missionaries. There was this elder
that fell asleep on the couch and Sister Saunima'a and Martinez made
cupcakes. These 2 other Elders got Sister Martinez to smear a cupcake on
the Elder. Oh my heck! The Elder woke up and had no idea what was going
on. He had frosting all over his face and since he had no idea what was
going on, he ate the cupcake. Everyone just started to laugh. He didn't
even see the sister that put he cupcake on his face. It was so funny.
We have a great time every P-Day. I love P-Day but not as much as
missionary work that's for sure. :) And I'm not being sarcastic. haha
Yesterday, we had
zone conference from 9 am - 4 pm. It was a very long training. I really
needed that training. They talked to us about being obedient, talking to
everyone we see, and we did some role playing. I mean real role playing
with people that we meet every day. The APs are awesome. They always
teach us a lot of spiritual things. I took a lot of notes and I know
it'll be helpful throughout my mission.
Lately, the weather here has been crazy! It's been
humid when it usually is super dry! My companion has been used to the
humidity and while walking, I'm sweaty and sticky and all that nasty
stuff and my companion isn't sweaty or anything. I'm like dying and she
acts like nothing is wrong. haha
Um...on Monday we have a training for the temple open
house. I'm super excited and I don't care how long the training is. I'm
just super excited to work at the temple open house. Time is going by
fast, don't you think? I think so! On Saturday, I've been out for 4
months already. Next thing you know I'll be home giving my homecoming
talk. haha
Well I hope everyone is doing great! I miss you all and keep the letters coming! I hope to hear from you all soon. :)
