Hey Mom! 

Well this was a great week. We got lots of work done and are still continuing to do more. I did get my box and thank you so much! Love all that is in it.  Thank you for all of it and especially the ties! I have a lot more now than when I came out with. Conference was so great! I did see President Durant. You can't miss him at all haha. All the talks were amazing and they hit hard on families. That thing they went to like in Egypt was super cool and how President Eyring like bore testimony there. Crazy!  That's amazing. It was cool being able to here two of them in Spanish. The funniest was when President Utchdorf spoke in German! Haha finally.  We watched it in the church and all that. We had O come who is getting baptized on the 25th. He loved it.  But this week was great. I have a picture or two haha because we had a great Easter dinner at the F family. They are a couple in the English branch. She reminds me of Angie and even looks a lot like her. It's crazy. The Wilsons were there too. So it was great. 

 

I would say since we split the area that both sides are still averaging about 13 or so lessons. We had 13 this week but we missed time because we had Zone Conference and General Conference. I am not sure that there is too much more. But it has been a great week but gosh every week goes too fast! I had dream I was home last night but in Spanish. It was not right. 

It is just crazy how quickly the time goes in the mission. Blake emailed me again and said how crazy it is that I have almost hit my half way mark.  I'm always emailing back and forth with him though and saying stuff in Spanish haha. I never thought I would ever be able to speak Spanish. I feel like the Lord has blessed me with the gift of tongues for sure because at 9 months and the ability I have to talk as much as I can now is a blessing. I love the Hispanics.

I've definitely just learned and felt the truthfulness that Joseph Smith was a prophet. Every time I say the first vision to someone it is just super powerful. 

Well I love ya mom and I will be sending some pictures your way and talk to ya soon!
