5 months?!??

hola hola!! cómo están!? 

I hit 5 months yesterday what the heck!!! Thats crazyyyy I feel like I've been here for about 2 or 3 months hahaha! 

We had some fun things happen this last week!!! 

- we went to the butterfly room and the dinosaur museum for pday last week and that was super fun!!! The butterfly's will just land on you and let you pick them up it's soooo cool! 

- I cracked my phone RIP 

- one of the members in our ward randomly texted us asking if we wanted ice cream so he bought us ice cream and gave it to us!!! 

- I had yet another exchange with Hermana Gilbert!!! It's basically a weekly thing at this point! We went to her area and biked all around Orem... let me just tell you that it was SO cold. We talked to a bunch of people and found some new people for them to teach! 

- I got a strawberry freeze from taco bell 

- pretty much about everyday we get told that there's either some amazing food place or store or activity place in Provo.... rip... sooo Hermana Lake you can go there for me!! 

- we have been having lessons with a man named Alejandro and they have all had to be on his doorstep because he lives with his dad and there's no girls in the house! His dad is a member but hasn't come to church in a while because he works every week, but we invited Alejandro to come to church with us and he told us he would! We told him we were going to come by before church just to remind him and so we went yesterday and we knock and he opens the door and he's all ready for church and has the directions pulled up on his phone!!! So that was awesome and he stayed for both hours and then came to English classes after!  

- we had someone yell at us yesterday...  So this is a fun story. We got a referral from the elders in our ward a couple weeks ago about this house who had members and non members living there. we have gone by a couple times and keep meeting this woman named Sonia who never had time so last night we decided to go by and so we get there and there's an old man blasting Spanish music sitting next to his car and a girl but she saw us and went inside so we knocked on their front door. A man opened the door and there is this HUGE dog right next to him. I swear I thought it was a bear. We introduced ourselves and asked if we could share a quick message. He looked at us and then at the girl in the back who was holding back another big dog and he says "she doesn't want a message and it looks like these dogs don't either" and before we could say anything the girl yells at us and says "we left the church so if you could leave so we can let the dogs go that would be great!" Ya that was unexpected butttt oh whale 

- we had a midway transfer last night and nothing happened so yayyayayay

Espero que tienen un buen semana y recuerden que Dios nos ama!!! Les quiero ️ 

 mom you can google translate that ;)

MY WEEK

Lo siento mis panas!! 

Not much happened this week!! We got rejected A LOT!!!! Here's a few highlights tho: 

- I went on yet another exchange with Hermana gilbert and I got to meet more of her awesome investigators 

- we went to a young women's activity and got to water color!! 

- we had CDC on Thursday and after we got to go to Milagros for lunch and it was so good! Also a kind man paid for all 7 of us!

- we said goodbye to Hermana Williams because she finished her mission and went home to Georgia 😭

- on Saturday we had lunch with some members and we had Peruvian ceviche which is fish cooked in lemon juice! So I ate fish and squid!!! And I liked it!!! That was crazy because y'all know I hate seafood but hey it was good!!! I would recommend it! So if you want to try it go to Peru 51 in Orem!! 

- Saturday night we went out to dinner with another family in our ward and we went to Five Star BBQ and it was soooo good! Then we went to get ice cream!! 

- to top it all off we had 6 people at sacrament meeting!!! That was a miracle because we haven't had that many at sacrament in a LONG time! We were so excited for each of them!!! 

And lastly today for pday we went to Thanksgiving point and went to the butterfly museum and the dinosaur museum!!! It was super fun!!! 

Sorry this is very last minute but I hope y'all have a great week!! And I want to hear from u guys!!!! Love you!!
