It's already been a month!!!

Hi family!

I saw a letter from you on the stack of mail this morning and we get to open them at lunch! ahhh Im so excited!!!!
okay i´ll start off with last thursday and tell you everything thats happened this week! so last p day night all the elders got in huge trouble because they had a pillow fight haha the president told them how its time for them to grow up because their missiionareis now but sometimes they really still act like their 18 year old selves haha
and then friday was complete downpour all day! the rain just dumped and didnt stop so during activity time we went and played soccer in the rain and just got absolutely soaked! haha and then we went and did service at the hostile! they had us go over and fold all the towels and sheets in the laundry and the guy in charge didnt speak any english but he said my folding was very good and he wanted me to teach the elders how to fold and put me incharge of making sure everyone did it right haha all i was thinking was, mom would be so proud of me right now!
then saturady we went proselyting! we got sent to a different area this time because of what happened with the elders in the last area and this new area was a lot nicer! it almost reminded me kind of corona del mar with the big trees and lots of small houses except it was still a little dirtier than that haha the highlights of the day were that me and hermana minks met a securtiy guard named jesus that knew a ton about the church already and we gave him the address of the church in the area so he can go to sacrament meeting on sunday! we also taught the restoration to a boy that was probably about 15 years old and he stood at his door and listened to the whole lesson and laughed at our spanish and then after our whole lesson, he was like, so where are you guys from? i think he just wanted to talk to us because we're girls from the states haha oh well!
so then things got exciting again on monday, they are remodeling the ccm right now and so they had us move bedrooms so they could redo ours and so we moved down the hall, and then that night when i was in the shower, water starting coming up out of the drain thats in the middle of the bathroom floor soooo fast! by the time i got the water turned off there was like an inch of water acorss the whole floor of our bedroom! so we spent a good portion of the night squeegeeing up water, and then all our latina friends and the other north american groups were all leaving at 4 in the morning the next day for their missions so we got like 4 hours of sleep! and then the next day before class they had us move rooms again, they put all 6 of us american sisters left at the ccm in one room for now while they remodeled the past two days and now we get to move again today! haha good times!
so yesterday there were only 16 of us missionaries total at the ccm until everyone else arrives today! yay!
so that pretty sums up my week and we have like a week and a half more until we will be heading to paraguay! ahhh!! im so excited! love you all! keep smiling! be happy!
