HONDURAS HONDURAS!

Hola familia!!! I made it!! Can you believe it_ Cause I barely can! Tons has happened in the the last two weeks! Well for you Thanksgiving! and Black Friday tambien! Of course I thought of you Lindsay and si with your promaster black Friday skills and daddy... I KNOW you got your deals and was probs first in like at Scheels! Aim you probs have a whole new wardrobe... haha jk hope you had a blast in DC or NY... sorry I forgot! But don't you dare move there just yet! And mamma... I KNOW you probs had the best thanksgiving dinner out there! Without a doubt! I miss your food :) I hope you all said hi to the family for me! Miss you all and I hope your Thanksgiving was awesome! Oh where did I have me thanksgiving dinner may you ask_ Oh in a cute little fast food franchise called Pollo Rico! Oh mmm... en serio though! but here I am getting ahead of myself! Oh my last week in the CCM! Oh how I will miss it... mostly the people! Oh me encanta! And the other 4 hermanas! Oh how I will miss them!! And Hermana Reed! Good thing shes here with me or I would be so sad! We left the CCM at 3 in the morning and came to Honduras! Took a quick little pit stop to el salvador (oh one more country I can say am I right?) Then we arrived in Tegulcigalpa! My companions name is Hermana Rojas she is from El Salvador and just darling! And we are in Comayagua... about 2 hours out of tegulcigalpa! We are opening the area!! QUE? Ah its so exciting... and there's a lot of trust in us! The area is huge but bonita tambien! 

My first day here I saw Elder Hale!! (From Alta high) Oh how great it is to see familiar faces! Ah I'm so grateful that I am finally here! I've been waiting for this for what seems like FOREVER! since we are opening in area that means contacting contacting contacting! Out very first contact on my very first day was Hermano Hilario about 70 years old. He is so so great! He came to church with us Sunday which was awesome! Our first meeting with him he came up and gave me a hug... NO Soy misionera Soy misionera! So we are both learning together for sure!

Oh wow How much I have learned about trusting in the Lord. I have no clue what we are doing half the time and well... the other half we are lost in the city :) (Oh man how I have taken those Rocky Mountains for granted. I have no sense of direction haha :)

But yes I stick out like a sore thumb here. TRUST me I do... everyone just stares! Ha but when they do... ha contact. Hola! were missionaries... whats your name? Perfecto! Haha Do I understand what they say? Oh heavens no. But its a lot more fun if you make up conversations in your head. Every once in a while I pick up a word or two to form my story... the only problem is with that is that I think I laugh at the wrong times cause I get a lot of weird looks! Eh no matter!!

Anyway I love you I love you I love you!!
The book is blue and truer than true! I love this gospel and my testimony grows every day out here. Love you!!

And I love letters :)
