Feliz Dia de Accion De Gracias!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!! I probably said that wrong in spanish haha but oh well I"m trying! They actually made it really fun at the MTC it was probably the best day so far! It was sad not being home but they tried to make sure we loved it since we were away from our families. We went to main campus and got to hang out all day it was sweet! Too bad none of our friends are here anymore or we could have partied together all day! Russell M Nelson came to speak to us for the devotional in the morning and it was awesome!!! That guy is a stud!!! It was the best, my zone was taking bets before the devotional about who it was going to be that was speaking to us and I guessed Nelson and was the champion!! But yeah and we did a service project and made little soup packets and we got to wear sexy hair nets so you know that was classy.

 Let's see and we got to watch Ephraim's Rescue at night before we headed back to west campus! That movie was WAY good! Hermana Muir and I were taking "snapchats" with each other and we took the other person's camera and were taking ugly "snapchats" of ourselves and just making the ugliest pictures we could think of. Oh boy that girl kills me she is so funny! I have some nice blackmail pictures now! 
My zone is AWESOME!!!! I love these kids! 

My new district

We had a nacho libre quoting contest and it was pretty much the best thing of my life!!!! There was about 10 of us and we had 10 seconds to think of a quote from the movie or else you were out! You better believe I was the champion of that game!!!!!! It was a close call between me and another Elder, I thought I was going to lose, but never fear I held in there and I'm the "da best!" Haha not really but I'm a good nacho libre quoter. 
Oh I don't even know there's just so much that has happened this week it's going to be rough to get everything done and load all my pictures!! I sent 12 letters today so a lot of people should be getting their responses soon. They only want us writing on p days now so my letters might start slowing down a little but I figure I better be obedient so I don't get shot when I hit the lovely streets of Tijuana! Just kidding no worries I'm not actually scared of getting shot. 

The people in our zone going to Tijuana...plus two random photo bombers in the back. Curse those potato farmers haha!!

So the other day Hermana Eye was telling me a story when we were going to bed and the next thing I remember was waking up in the morning. I was like, "Oh crap I hope I didn't fall asleep" A couple minutes later she comes up to me and was asking if I fell asleep because I didn't say much about the exciting parts of her story. Haha I'm obviously a little sleep deprived!!! We wake up at 5:30 here, it's awful!! But on Thanksgiving we got to sleep in until 6:30 so that was the best thing ever! I'm still having a little bit of a hard time staying awake in the day which I'm sure is hard for a lot of you to imagine haha but my companion and I have a new goal of keeping each other awake all day. 

These are the old sister training leaders we had when we got here and the other two girls from their zone, the day before they left

My lessons with the investigators are getting a LOT easier! I feel a lot more comfortable and we've actually had some really spiritual experiences doing them, they're pretty awesome! I have thet first vision memorized in spanish now so I love cranking that bad boy out and just BAM! hitting investigators with that and just bringing the spirit! Ok so before my companion left home she had sister missionaries living in her basement so their mission president called ours and we got some good info on our mission. We found out that they really did just start sending girls to the Tijuana mission in about July or August, she can't remember exactly when. They started with mostly native girls but not they've started sending white, Americans so we really are one of the first crews to go out! I"m SOOOOOOO stoked about that, it's stinking awesome!!!!!! Now I"m convinced that's why I had to wait to go on a mission. THIS is the mission I needed to go on and I couldn't have gone there if I would have turned my papers in earlier!! Aaaah it makes me so happy I can't even tell you how much I love knowing this!!!! 

Oh so Hermana Eye and I are the new sister training leaders in our zone so that's pretty cool I'm excited to be able to go and meet all the new districts when they start coming in next week! On Sunday I had to say goodbye to Lauryn becasue she was leaving for the mission on Tuesday. I became the biggest cry baby ever!! It was like re-living the baby that I was at home right before I left! I'm so happy for her to be in her mission now and she's going to be awesome but I'm going to miss seeing her in the MTC! You're a peach Lauryn!!!!! 


Ok best story of the week!!!!!! We were at lunch the other day and just hanging out and talking. Just be warned the comment this Elder made wasn't even so funny so I don't know why it still makes me laugh so hard. But yeah, I was taking a drink and Elder Brush goes "A girl bit you" and don't ask me why but I thought it was so funny and next thing I know I spewed my water all over Hermana Muir sitting right across from me!!!!! And I mean I projectile launched my water across the table at her!!!! Haha I'm laughing right now I can hardly type this! The look of horror on her face still gets me!!! Everyone in our zone was dying and still whenever anyone sits across from me they tell them to watch out becasue they're in the splash zone. Oh I don't know it's so funny that was definitely a highlight of the MTC so far!!

Sorry my letters are always so huge it probably takes days to read these bad boys. Oh and earlier that day Hermana Nielsen dropped her nametag in the toilet so I was already in a laughing mood so this week I've just been laughing nonstop I swear!! Guess what!! Whoa I'm more than halfway there!!! WHOOOOOAAA living on a prayer!!! I leave the MTC in 2 and a half weeks!!! I'm so pumped!!! I don't know spanish but I'm jazzed to get out into the real world!!! Shoutout to the Kingdon's who sent me a bomb package this week!!!!! Thank you so much!!!! Those cookies are to die for and I just love you to death!!! I You're the best I seriously LOVED my package!!! Happy Birthday Brock!!!!!!! I was thinking about you on Wednesday!!!! So the Elders here always have tie trading conventions and they have three ties that they call "the three sisters" and if you have any of those you're the king. The other day I was wearing my colorful skirt that we thought looked like Mexico, mom, and they told me it was the "mother of the three sisters" haha so I guess that's a good thing! Ok anyways I love you all to death and I hope you had the best thanksgiving ever!!!! I was thinking about all of you and I honestly can't tell you how grateful I am to have you in my life and for everything that you do for me!!!!!! I'm so grateful to be on a mission and I love you more than I could ever tell you!!!!! Ciao Bellas!!

Me and mi companera

I LOVE THESE GIRLS!!! This is my apartment!
