Well I have sure enjoyed this week! As you can see from the pictures, it was an exciting one! Full of iguanas during english class, exploring more waterfalls, and getting to know more of our area. SO we are now in charge of ALL of Estanzuela. SO that has been fun!! It is the best because there are new things everyday, but I have my same companion, and the same investigators. It is the best of both worlds! AND we moved houses!!! We are now in the Elders' old house! It is much nicer! And we have water ALL DAY LONG!! AND we have a shower!!! Before we had to pour water over our heads from a pila.... It's in the little things folks!
Well this week Olga is getting baptized!!! She is so excited!! We were able to get her mom to say yes this week!! Well we didn't actually do anything. Carlos (the older brother that got baptized 3 weeks ago) he just talked to her, and bore his testimony to her and she said YES!!!
Carlos is doing so well. He is just soaking up EVERY part of being Mormon. And yesterday in our Sunday School class with the youth we did some practices about how to explain Joseph Smith, and I almost cried when he was acting as the missionary. He bore such a sweet and sincere testimony. And it really helped me strengthen my testimony that the Spirit teaches so much better than us!! And Carlos told the seminary teacher this week when she asked what he is going to do as soon as he finishes school this year, and he said he just wants to go on a mission. :)
Well thank you mom for sending me that recipe for no bake cookies. EVERYONE here loves them. SO we started to give them to the people that go out on visits with us. And they all end up asking us how to make them!!

LOVE YOU ALL! And I am living up my last day being 19! (my companion told me as we left the house that I looked like it was my first day of school! So in honor of my siblings who DID have their first day of school today, here is a classic First day of school pic)
