No Capital Letters

hey everyone!! sorry i don't have a ton of time to email today! so sorry none of my emails are going to have capital letters because it is annoying to do it on a spanish keyboard. I slept almost the entire plane ride because i got no sleep the night before. since i was asleep though i missed when they passed out the paperwork i needed to get into mexico.... so it was a super stressful time in the airport but they let me in lol. The first day was a lot of introductory meetings and stuff for all the new missionaries. I love it here in Mexico!! It is so pretty here and warm, way better than the freezing cold in Boise! My district is awesome and my teachers are the best! I have learned so much about the gospel and my testimony has been strengthened so much! okay so i think the Lord really thought i needed to learn patience or something because my companion is very hard to handle. I won't lie. My spanish is not that great but getting better everyday! i was asked to give a prayer in spanish my first day and it went okay, i had to write it down on a piece of paper and literally read it off. my spanish is coming along, the very second day they make you teach a lesson in spanish to our "investigator" which is really just our teacher. At first it was really hard and our lesson was just a script that I honestly didn't understand all of what I was saying. it's gotten better and we have been able to make an outline in english and then look down every once in a while but use spanish for 95% of it.  The food they make looks kinda weird and is not traditional Mexican food like you would expect lol. So I just eat fruits and vegetables for every single meal and my whole district calls me a vegetarian even though I'm not. It is so much fun being a missionary and i wouldn't trade my MTC experience for anything! I've met so many new friends! We are working hard from 6:30 in the morning until 9:30 at night but its great!! I see Alyse or Hermana Erickson all the time and it's so much fun to see her.  tell kim and angie that i met elder smith from their ward! 

 

I love you all so much!
