Hola!
So we just got done with an AWESOME companion study with the Assistants. They are so great! I am going to be really sad when Elder Woodman leaves next week! He is from Alpine so maybe I'll make him come up and visit. They called on Wednesday night, (don't remember why) and they could tell I was just a bit tired so they said Sister, let's have a comp study on Monday morning. It was so great - so hopefully, we are on the path upwards!
Yes mother, I will have a good birthday. I promise. Today is Elder Maldonado's birthday so this Saturday we are going to the G_____'s for a yummy birthday dinner (FAJITAS!!!). Elder M wants an ice cream cake so I said okay, we can get that but I am making my own birthday treat. (You know me, gotta have my birthday "death by chocolate") And the S_____'s want to do something too. It is weird because I LOVE birthdays, but this year I just feel like working. Huh, imagine that?
We have had a pretty good week I would say. Mo____ has been toReynosa
often and the hospital (D____ is in the hospital because her twins might come
early. D____ is the sister-in-law of M____, niece of Mo____ and C____, not a
member, yes, we're on that.) So we haven't been able to have too many
appointments but everything is still looking good for the 1st! O wait, I don't
think I told you about that! MO____ IS GETTING BAPTIZED ON THE 1ST!!! MIRACLES
DO HAPPEN! We had a lesson last Monday night with the Familia L____ and Hermano
L____ just laid it all down while we sat there, completely in shock, and then
Mo_____ said yup, June 1st. It was AMAZING! I can't even explain! Anyways, I
just love that family and one of their sons has a speech problem so he can't
talk very well but he can say Hermanas. :) M____ is moving out of the in-laws
house down 2 or 3 houses so we went over on Friday and helped her clean.
Tonight we are going over to L____ and the kids house. They didn't come to church yesterday so we’re going to go talk to them about that. We found rocks on our run last week and we are going to paint prayer rocks tonight. We are pretty excited! Then we are having an FHE with the S____'s, L____ (one of our investigators), the other sisters, and their recent converts, then after MO____ TIME! I just love Mo____time because with him we can just tell him what we think. I think being that we have taught him off and on since I got here, I am pretty comfortable with him. :)
I can't even imagine Annie driving! THAT IS THE CRAZIEST THING EVER! I really just can't believe it! I guess I still have awhile to get use to that idea but I probably still won't accept it. At least I will be there before she starts dating. Or will I? Thoughts about me extending??? ;) ha ha! It is funny because usually when people talk about extending they talk about how they need to talk to their family but Sister Holmes and I said that we have to talk to each other first because we are either both extending or not because we are coming home together! But really, we have awhile to think about it, don't get freaked out. :)
I can't wait to get my birthday package! I'm sure there is great stuff in there and I appreciate that but really I just want to hear about these letters from the Primary! How cute!!! I'll talk to Sister Mantle today and ask her about the package. We were there this morning and nothing was there. I'll tell her to look out for it and make the assistants take it or something. That way I would get it faster.
Well, I have to get going! We have to go to the store so I can be more than just spiritually fed here and then Sister Ramos wants to go buy shoes. :) I love you all and I hope everything is WONDERFUL!

P.S. We had one of the BEST days at church yesterday with talks! One person talked about salt and the usage of salt in the scriptures and how salt doesn't contaminate with age, just if we contaminate it with something else. SO GREAT!
