Merry Christmas!

Elder Ball did not send a letter home this week because we were able to spend time on a video call! It was FANTASTIC (to use a word he would use... HA!)  He did send some photos.

He is in a new area, opening up a new area. He has been "homeless" for a week... no apartment for them as it's a new place. While we were in our video call, his companion said they had found an apartment, so he was pretty happy to *maybe* not be sleeping on a yoga mat sometime this week.

Transfer Day - Saying goodbye to Mama Luz


Mama Luz was a lifesaver to me as a mom! I miss getting her pictures almost daily of my Elder!


All packed, ready to move

No Time

Elder Ball didn't have very much time to email today.  They changed a form that they need to do their reports on, and it took him a lot longer than expected to get through it. But! I have pictures! He is doing great! He loves his companion, they are working hard, and he is very excited that it is December!  Lot's of service projects this month and he is looking forward to that! He is headed to the hospital today so they can (hopefully) remove some warts that have grown on his hands while there.  He has tried about everything to get them gone... He first showed them to me on MOTHERS DAY so, I think it's time they get taken care of! He is happy!  And that makes ME happy.

My First Llama!!!

Wow! This week was definitely Peruvian! I saw my first llama! It was a stylish llama might I add! It was fun! We saw him during our Zone P day, which was a blast! We went to the stake center and played some Fútbol! Yea... I can´t play soccer... Haha! But I´m going to learn. I have to, since even the kids here are crazy good! After playing soccer, we played some Werewolf, which is Mafia, but of course in Spanish. During games, Latinos tend to be really really energetic! I am having a great time! I am totally adjusted! Just, not the language... But you know, little details! It´s amazing to be able to help teach in the lessons, now that I know how to do more than say just my testimony! I do really well at understanding what people are saying...The only problem is when people talk to me! Then I understand nothing! And even less when people ask me how my Spanish is, because I never know if they are saying:    Do you know Spanish good? Your Spanish is really good...

Conference Weekend

Hey everyone!  So not too much happened since last P-Day… We went hiking and overlooked the other half of our mission! There is a huge mountain range, and there are 10ish Zones in our mission, and half are on one side, and we are on the other, with two at the base of the mountain. It was fun to talk and hike! I did miss listening to music while hiking a little bit!  We have been working nice and hard! We have Hermana Ana, who is getting very close to being ready for Baptism! We are building her testimony, and she is so so wonderful! Shandu is also really ready to be baptized! We have permission from his parents, and we still have more to teach! Edu and his family are so wonderful, and Edu is ready, and his parents need just a little bit more time! But all of these people are our baptisms for the 14 of October if everything works out perfect! Conference was so wonderful! I got to watch nearly all of it in English! The people there did not want us to d...
