Today is week 5! Next week we will have our orange stickers indicating that we are on our final week!! Can you believe that, well neither can I! I have done so much and learned so much in this last week since writing ya´ll last!
Our district did a district fast on Tuesday to help with learning Español! That was really fun! And we keep trying everyday hablar solo en Español! By the end of the day we are so worn out, but it is helping us so much!
Last Thursday after I emailed, we went to the temple, and it was so much fun! It is so beautiful!
Then Sunday we had a combined Sacrament mtg! And it was huge there were 400 missionaries at it!
On Tuesday we received 100 more missionaries here! Which is insane! And guess who is here from home?!?! Another Wyomingite! HAHA! So our district fasted all day on tuesday, ya? and so we were starving and so ready to eat dinner! and en martes. It is siempre PIZZA! pero, cuando we got there, ellos dice no pizza, porque it was not coming! Nosotros muy triste! ;( very sad! Then we were sitting there eating spaghetti, and guess who walks by to go sit down and eat... Elder Rasmussen from Burlington, Wyoming! I saw him and had to take a double glance. Like what, I did not know he was coming to the CCM!! I´ll just say I was so stoked, then right after that they brought out pizza!! So everything was good in the world! Since today is my P-Day i got a picture with him that I will post on here!
On tuesday our district all sang in the choir! we sang "I know that my saviour loves me". or en Español "Yo se que me alma el Señor" It was very pretty and it brought the spirit into the devotional! I It made me cry too! And well it was good! I kinda also offered to play a musical number next week for the devotional, and the elders kinda want to sing to it.. HAHA We will see how that goes!
We continue to play early morning volleball and sometimes even early morning runs!
It gets cold here! I was not prepared for how cold it gets, because I am going to McAllen and I do not need a heavy jacket... but actually I do! It rains like almost every evening! It rained tuesday night like a ton! And there were big puddles of water and I did not have my water shoes on and almost ruined a pair of my shoes. And it rained last night! The elevation is os high that the lightening is bright and the thunder is loud and rolling! I really do enjoy the storms here and will miss them when I go to the stats! Pero, I could not be happier to be out in the mission field!
Today is a full P-Day, so we got to play v-ball this morning, take pictures, get hair cuts (all the elders and I) in my district got hair cuts, then we are writing now, and going to go take a nap!
Love,
Hermana Riley
