Hey Fam! Happy New Year!! What did you do for New Year´s
Eve? I can´t believe it´s 2014 already. 2013 flew by! I still need to make my
resolutions. Have you made yours? It was SO great to talk to you on Christmas!
I´m sorry the Skype didn´t work very well. Maybe for Mother´s Day I´ll go to a
different place to make sure it works. So I was so distracted by everything and
talking to you guys, that I failed to thank you for my package! Seriously it
was perfect!! I love the new skirt! Good pick! And it was so nice to have
lights up and stockings for Christmas! I LOVE the calendar and 1st day of
school book!! Plus the super cute puzzle, the conference talks, preach my
gospel, recipes, talk by Pres. Hinkley, lipton onion soup mix, brownie mix,
pens, makeup, stickers, pass along cards, razors, and letters. I just loved it
all! You are so thoughtful and sent WAY too much! But thank you! I got the
Christmas card. You didn´t need to include a separate picture of me! Haha. But
it was great and I loved the message. Our family had a big year. I also got
Christmas cards from Dave and Lynn and Bruce and Patsy. It was great! I´m glad
you got my package. It wasn´t much, but I wanted to send something. Yeah I had
to use my own photo book, but I´ll look for a new one. Sounds like everyone got
great gifts for gift of the heart! What great ideas! So we had transfers today!
I got a new companion. Her name is Hermana Navas from Guatemala. She is super
super sweet. Always happy. And I´ve heard she´s a really hard worker so I´m
excited what we´ll be able to do together. I´m the one who knows the area now
so it´s a little intimidating, but it will be good for me. Hermana Monegro and
I spent the last couple days going to say goodbye to people. She´s been here
for 6 months so everyone really knows and loves her. We went to a lady´s house
in our branch for New Year´s Eve last night. It was super fun! We went with the
Elders and there were other families too. We had the celebration at 10 instead
of 12 but it was still fun. lol. We had horns and those things that shoot
confetti and dinner and cake. I stayed up until 12, but now I´m regretting it.
Haha. But people here shoot off there guns at midnight. I didn´t know that...
It scared me so bad. Like right at 12 you hear dozens of guns go off near your
house. New traditions! haha. So the Elders had 2 baptisms on Saturday! One of
them is super strong already. He´s already decided that he´s going to serve a
mission in a year. It´s awesome. I learned how to make empanadas this week!!
They are super unhealthy but so good. I´ll make them for you when I get
home. Thanks for the article from President Uchtdorf Dad! Can´t wait to
read it! Well we´ve been getting a lot of references recently so we have a
lot of new investigators. We´ll see if any of them progress. We´re trying to
focus on Ricardo since his baptism is coming up. We don´t think it will happen
on the 18th because of the marriage issue, but we´re going to commit them to a
date to be married so things will happen. I hope he can be baptized soon. He´s
so ready. Anyways... I love you all soo much! It was so great to see you last
week! Only 5 months til I see you again! Happy New Year!
