Bautismos por fin!!! 10/27/14

Hola everyone this week Carlos and Edgar got baptized!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously it was the best day ever!! we were SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!! There were SO MANY people from the ward who went to their baptism and are supporting them and they just have to feel so stinking loved!!! We were scared they might not wake up in the morning and make it to their confirmation!! They showed up 20 minutes late and just about gave us heart attacks but they made it and I'm just so happy!!!!!!!! Edgar told us he felt different after the confirmation than before! We tried explaining the confirmation alnd the gift of the holy ghost a lot of times, but I still think they're a little confused, but they'll understand more, the more that they go! So that was the number one best thing!!
 Then Daniela will be either getting baptized this saturday or next sautrday we just have to check with the ward to see! She's so awesome!!!! They other day she asked us if she could have a fast just to give thanks to the Lord for all of the blessings she's gotten! She's so cute! Hmmm what else! There's a dude here that drives one of the calafias (it's like the bus-like things that we take) and now he always gives us free rides wherever we go! Haha the perks of being pretty!! Just kidding!! We did a service project this week with the stake and we cleaned up all of the garbage off of the streets close to the church.....it was nasty!! Tijuana streets are not the cleanest things you've ever seen in your life! but now they look a lot nicer :) Love you all so much and hope you have an awesome week!! This picture is at the baptism with my peeps haha

I want to buy a hamburger!! 10/20/14

Hoooooooooooooolaaaaaaaaaaa!! 
so this week nothing too different happened, we just went crazy trying to track down Edgar and Carlos all week to teach them everything before their baptism tomorrow, but we did it!! I literally thought I was going to die getting the signature from her mom and stressing out getting everything figured out, but they're all ready to go, they just have their interviews tonight! So in order to get baptized yesterday they HAD to go to church!! So we show up to sacrament meeting and jEdgar's there but Carlos isn't because he didn't want to wake up! so we had to send llike a search team out to get him here and they kid totally like dies instead of sleeping because it took like half an hour to get him out of bed! His mom had to throw water on him haha! That sounds totally sad, but he was the one who said he wanted to go! They're SO cute and just have the hardest situation they're in, but they're just such good kids and they really like going to church...well that is after they wake up haha!  I just love the people here!!
so to explain the title this is because I lived a total Pink Panther moment this week! So we're teaching this one guy English and he made up a sentence and was like "I eat a hamburger" and he couldn't pronounce hamburger right, and my companion was trying to help him and I can't even explain how perfectly pink panther it was!! I was trying to hard not to life and secretly pull my camera out to film it!!
That's pretty much all I can think of. I love everybody so much!!!!!!! I hope Chase and Grandma had awesome birthdays this week, I was thinking about you! and happy birthday Alex this week!! Don't party too much in peru

Que en el mundo??? 10/13/14

So we had transfers and.......I"m staying here. I was SO confused!!! Hermana Beaumont are staying here the same! That means I'm going to be here for 6 months again! I had started saying goodbye to people that I wasn't going to see on Sunday and somebody gave me tacos as a goodbye present haha! That's going to be awkward when they see me still walking the streets of Tijuana here :) Seriously that's pretty much the only exciting thing I have to say today! I was planning on saying where I was going to get transfered, but they surprised me and punished me for assuming haha! I'm way happy that I'll get to see Edgar and Carlos get baptized next week and Daniela the week after that!!!
Seriously Daniela is the best investigator in the world! she's on Mosiah chapter 4 in her Libro de Mormon!!!!! She's reading it faster than me!! Haha sorry this is totally way boring. Oh, cute Carlos bought like a little suit to wear so that he would be more formal when he came with us and he wrote us a letter telling us that we were his best friends!! It was so funny because we teach them at a member's house because their house has some problems. So anyways, the other day Carlos was out playing soccer who knows where and then we went and taught Edgar at the bishops house and like 20 minutes later little 10 year old Carlos shows up and was like I just knew you were going to be here!! It's like he has a 6 sense for the Hermanas haha! But that's pretty much it. Transfers were way stinking weird this time with the whole zone! Sorry that's all I've got!
Oh wait! We went and visited Wendy (my old investigator who I loved so much who dropped us) to say goodbye to her and I wanted to figure out what had happned and why they dropped us. So it turns out that her husband didn't believe very much in God and so when they went to church there was a class about tithing and he got mad and didn't want to go back becuase he didn't want to have to pay tighing one day :( sad day.  
Well hopefully I'll finally have a baptism to write home about soon and some more stuff next week! I lovoe you all so much and hope this week is a good one! This is a picture of our district :)

Cakes and conference and CRAZINESS 10/6/14

HOLA!!!!!!!! THIS WEEK WAS SO MUCH FUN I LOVED IT!!!First of all the best thing in the world is that Carlos and Edgar ended up not moving!!!!!!!!!!! seriously I just about cried when we went by their house and found them again!!!!!!!!!!! They're seriously like my little brothers I just love them so much!!They went to botht he conference sessions on Saturday and then Carlos went to both on Sunday....our youngest investigator (he's 10 years old) and he's the only person who went to all 4 conference sessions! He's so funny he was pretty much sleeping through a good portion of it! Seriously I was laughing so hard during all of conference because everybody was falling asleep and for the first time in my life I wasn't the one bobbing the whole time haha! Well on the second session on Saturday Carlos was sprawled out on the seat and we tried waking him up for like 2 minutes and he was just out solid and then when he finally woke up he had the couch lines on his face and I was dying! And Edgar had  his head back with his mouth open snoring and seriously I can't explain how funny it was!! then we have a total cholo investigator who came and watching him bob the whole time was  cracking us up too! But the best part was my companion kept falling asleep and Carlos would wake her up and she would look at us all mad and be like "I'm not sleeping" and then 5 seconds later she would be bobbing again and this went on pretty much all 4 sessions and this probably isn't as funny as I"m making it sound but it's still making me laugh right now just talking about it!!
So conference was awesome as usual!!! i really liked when Richard G. Scott was talking about Prayer and in the talk with President MOnson about how it doesn't matter if we walk where Christ walked, but if we walk how he walked!! woo hoo for conference!! I was next to Carlos and my little buddy Diegito and they were just locos so I couldn't focus very much so that was sad, but it was still awesome!! We had 10 investigators come to general confeence and 6 inactives!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We were freakin out it was so awesome!! Seriously I loved this week we found the most awesome people adn everyone is progressing awesome!!! Daniela is still the most amazing, prepared investigator youi could think of, and now her mom wants to listen because of the change that she saw in Daniela!!!!!!  I LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE THIS AREA!!!!! We have transfers next week and now I'm scared I'm leaving when we have so many awesome investigators!!
Then my birthday was good thanks everybody!!! I had 3 cakes and got way fat!!! The Elders bought me a cake at district meeting on tuesday and we did the "mordida"and they shoved my face in it! Then Tatiana bought me a cake and the bishop's wife when we went and ate with them!!! It was a pretty normal day, but with a lot more cake haha! Oh and I ate a grasshopper! Ew.. there was an Elder who had some that his famly had sent him and it was just so weird! But that's all I've got for you! I'm so happy and having so much fun and I"m excited to see where I'm gonig next week (I'm just assuming I"m going to be transfered) Love you all so much and hope you have the best week ever!!!
