Well, this week was a good week.

We went to Toledo last week to shop and site see. It was fun to see my
friends there.

We "heart attacked" one of our investigators that is trying to quit smoking.

The other picture is our investigator that is getting baptized on
Sunday! We are really excited for that.

This week we had a lot of great lessons, an exchange and world wide
missionary training. It was a great week and I am excited for this
week!

I love you,

Hello,

Well this week was a great week full of little miracles. Last pday was
a lot of fun spending time with my companion. She's the greatest. This
pday we are going to Toledo (a town where there's really old castles)
as a district. I'm writing this email on the way there as a matter of
fact.

On Tuesday we had a leadership council at the mission home. That was
really fun. I was able to see Hermana Rossberg and a lot of other
friends who are sister training leaders. It was an inspiring meeting
getting us ready for the world wide missionary training this week. I
was also privileged to give my testimony. It was an amazing meeting
and I'm so grateful I had the privilege of being there.

Anyways Hermana Rossberg and her companion came to stay with us
Tuesday night because they had some residency stuff to do. It was so
fun to go and teach with Hermana Rossberg again! Our Spanish is sooooo
much better now. Then we got a call telling me that the temple is
closed for our programmed temple trip and that if I wanted we could go
with them to the temple Wednesday morning! Well the temple was
amazing, I loved it. It was my last time with my companion and I'm so
grateful I was there with my friends.

We then had a crazy week with a lot of lessons, a lot of people
failing us and a lot of miracles. It was a great week and the people
we teach are amazing. Sonia is having a hard time quitting smoking and
Nicole still hasn't received an answer abound Book of Mormon. Gerardo
and Lenin came to church for the first time yesterday and I am so
excited for all of them. They have all progressed so much since I've
been here!

Love you

This week I am going to tell you about my week in pictures!

We'll start on the 31st when we had surprise interviews with
president. Well they did us four sisters first and then took us to
Costco! It was great because we got some peanut butter, hummus and
brownie mix. All really nice thing to have! So this is us really
excited with Hermana Pack hanging out in the only Costco in Spain that
only opened a month or two ago. It was so much fun!

Well on the 31st we did the Spanish tradition or eating 12 grapes the
12 seconds counting down until midnight. I mean we did it at 11pm but
it was still fun!

My birthday on Sunday Jan 3. My companion decorated my planner and our
friend Sonia bought me a cake! It was a great day full of lessons and
food!

A continuation of the party Sonia had for me, she's great!

Then the best part, last night my companion made me these, yes they
are orange rolls and yes they are delicious. My companion is the best,
as in amazing. She made them for today because we were fasting
yesterday morning.

Then today we went bowling as a district! As you can see my companion
beat me by 2 points but we smoked the elders! Haha it was a great p
day today and a great week.
