Hola familia,
First thing, Happy be-lated birthday Andrew! i didn´t forget your birthday i simply just chose to write you 2 weeks late... I hope you had a great birthday and celebrated with caramel cake :)
so, for my week...
There is a reason for everything. honest to goodness, i´m thoroughly grateful for that dog that bit me because we went to the hospital 3 times this week for my other vacinations. The night the dog bit me as we were heading home we discovered that one of our less-actives that we´ve been working with had been hospitalized (he has some disease in his muscles) and they´re not sure he´s going to survive. so on tuesday when we returned to the hospital we were able to visit with his family (we couldn´t see him because its so bad they don´t want anyone to visit him with the risk of getting him more sick) but it was good to talk to his wife and kids. Then on saturday we went back for my 3rd vacination. and just so happens that one sister in the ward just had her baby! so we got to go visit her :) so basically, it was worth the pain cuz if the dog hadn´t bitten me we wouldn´t have had the excuse to go to visit those members in the hospital.
I got both packages this week! muchas gracias! hahah but i died, dad why did you tape pictures of the virgin mary all over the package? hahahahah, all the missionaries were so confused seeing me carrying it around. and i was all ´´only my family´´ :) i love you so much. hahah. oh and i understand the flea collars and all (thanks a ton for everything!) but why did you send a bunch of earplugs? hahaha
Ok, Butch the second is starting to drive me crazy. Last night he scared us to death, we´re talking on the phone with the elder when we hear this pounding at our door. we live behind 3 houses all surround with a gate so its super secure and private. but recently 2 older-ish guys moved into the house next door and both hna santillán and i have been a little weary. so with this pounding at the door we were freaking out a little. yeah so after opening the door practically with malets in our hands we find Butch sitting there perfectly content. this is the second time he´s followed us home. the first time he got locked inside the gate cuz our landlord didn´t know he was there and he ended up barking/pounding the door down from 1am-4:30am when we finally had to get up and let him out. its a bit ridiculous and i´m about to disown him.
Well, there´s really not much to say....we had conference with presidente this week and started the next day with a ton of animo, ready to conquer the world and ended up walking for 3 hrs straight in the pouring rain with cupfuls of water in our boots. And last night i don´t think i´ve ever returned to the house so tired. But we´re working hard. Our investigators are going to attend church next week sí o sí and we´re going to have días blancas. You recieve no witness until after the trial of your faith. We´ve had the trial of our faith so soon we will recieve the miracles i know it! :)
I love you all! take care!
