Hey!
What's Up! Sounds like the blessing/get-together was great. Things here are well. Last week was super slow and not much success. Already this week though we have matched the number of lessons we had last week and already doubled the number of new investigators compared to how many we found last week. So things continue to improve. It was so cool last Friday cause we usually eat with a member for lunch and we had been teaching her friend, Dyra. We hadn't been able to get back in contact with her for the longest time but we show up to eat and Dyra was there. She is super cool and super golden. We were able to talk a little bit more and how she loves the Book of Mormon and how her husband was a little iffy with it all, but the Sunday before they were talking about "spiritual things" and she mentioned to him that Christ had come to the Americas and that intrigued him so he started to read 3 Nephi 11 where we left her to read and he ended up reading a lot more and she said he liked it. They are super smart and know a lot about the bible and she has said that she knows the Book of Mormon is true. She was going to talk with her husband to find a time for us to come over and call us but they work a lot and haven’t called yet. Hopefully soon. Dyra is SO sweet and nice. She is SUPER cool. I imagine that her husband is as well. Our zone conference was fun and it was a Spanish zone conference so even better. Finally had a different home-meal also...baked potatoes with chili and sour cream and cheese and salt and pepper with rolls and just to top it cheesecake. It was SO nice to eat that and not Hispanic food for a day. it is so crazy cause my trainer is going home this transfer. We'll see about this week. I don't know if you would remember about the Delgado family in my first area, but they are going through the temple soon and then will be sealed as a family. Pretty sweet! I can't think of anything else, so good luck with everything and have fun! Later!

Hey!
So I remembered a few things. Last Wednesday we taught a cool family and we watched the "finding happiness" video and basically all the kids from the neighborhood came in when we were about to start, so we just watched it with everyone, and taught them how to pray. It was cool, all except the fact that cockroaches were crawling everywhere! And I mean EVERYWHERE! it was disgusting and we went home and took a shower cause we were just itching all over. It was nasty. Then the other day we passed by, no one answered but outside their door were tons of cockroaches as if they swept their floor and swept them all out. Nasty! I think that's all.
Later!
