My mom!! and family!!
I loved your emails. loved them i tell you!! i was laughing out loud for too long... #embarrassing!
Im doing so so great, I love it here, I miss all of you, I cant believe its already been 3 weeks. 3 WEEKS!!!
Ok, my list of things to tell you....
I ate 12 chocolate covered strawberries a while ago and I didnt even feel bad about it.
We went to the market last p day and that was SUPER CRAZY!!! Mom, Im really in Guatemala, not even joking. part of me wondered for a long time if I was just in a remote part of SLC, but no, this is the real deal! we got to walk around the market and I bought a drug rug (its a poncho, my comp calls it that though... and i thought it was funny...) and she haggled for me. so sweet.
Also last p day, we got back from the market, I sat down to sew something probably and hna Merrell was going down for a nap when a women told us we had to change rooms!!! Right then!! and we had an hour before we had to be to the temple!! So we were packed and unpacked in the new room in 40 minutes. I think its ok to not be humble right then.
We have Celestial Bathrooms now. So priviledged. but really, they are celestial.
We got new roommates (we loved the old ones btdubs...) and one of them is from Austrailia! Im sure i spelled that wrong, but she is way cool. she is 28 and she swears sometimes! Only because its not bad in Australia though! she is doing better now!
I have taken on 4 or 5 more sewing projects since my last email.. the elders keep ripping pants they bought at the market when they play with the hackey sack thing.... its really funny when they come up to me.."hermana Evans? ummm... so I hear you can sew?"
I got your package on Tuesday the 28th. :) it made me happy to see your handwriting.
I got your DearElder on the 29th and I LOVED IT!!! I love them a lot. I think its a great idea. More of those are definitely welcome. I like hearing from people in the middle of the week. So here is news for EVERYONE!! I LOVE DEARELDERS!!
Dad, I love you so so much and I want you to be so so happy. :) You are awesome.
Oh, how is the VISA sitch going for everyone? Are they getting VISAs yet?
I finally have the 1st vision memorized in spanish. #winning
I loved the pictures!! Keep em coming! :) im sorry Mort died though, thats sad. But it is super funny that you guys took him with you.
We are OWLways singing or praying here. I love it! Dont worry mom, I always have a prayer in my heart. just like you told me too. and it is HELPING ME SO MUCH!!!
Im learning that I cant think in english but talk in spanish... it just doesnt work.. there is a switch that i have to flip.
OH, for the friends out there, I would love to hear about mission calls... for instance, HOW THE HECK IS ANNA'S MISSION STUFF GOING?! (Anna, if youre reading this, I want to know EVERYTHING!!)
There is tile everywhere. EVERYWHERE!
We got to go to the temple again yesterday for p day and I loved it again. It is so special! :) This is the tiniest temple ever, but it is still so so great!
News: I would just send letters and such to my mission now... or just wait til im there and send dearelders...
OH! i almost forgot! if you get a friend request from a Jessica Blackmer, accept it. Doing so can unleash pictures. We have an in...dont worry, its totally legal and ok. But thats how the cookie crumbles right now..
Ok, love you!
Love, Hermana Evans
