My family!
I love you guys!
Boy do I have some stuff to tell you.  Ok first, that was the weirdest thing in the world to talk to you guys, just so you know.  I mean it was great!  I loved talking to you, but it was so weird.  I was happy to hear your voices, it was a great christmas!  Thank you for the package!  Really, I love everything that was in it!  And dont worry, I shared with my comp.  :)  And how did you know I love snickers?  But anywho, this week was great.  It really was, I think I told you what we did for christmas, but I will go ahead and tell you again.
We went to Maria Elena's house, she is the best and we celebrated with marshmallows and fun things like that.  And then world war 3 broke out and everyone blew everything up.  But dont worry, we are and were totally safe.  I think.. people were dressed up in masks with huge heads, I dont know why they do that, but they do it a lot. 
Oh, before I forget, one of the members in San Martin gave me lotion when I left, and well, you will never guess the scent.... guess though... Ok, Ill tell you.  It is the sent of moms foot lotion!!  How sweet is that?! 
Ok, and on sunday we watched a marathon run by us while we were picking up investigators for church.  they were all dressed up again!  One was batman, there was mario and luigi, an indian, pluto, and Christ (with a cross) that one was really terrible, but there were lots of very random costumes. 
We had an investigator show us his huge garden the other day, his name is Anival, and he is so funny.  He does weird little hand guestures during the lessons and everything.  Cooky.  But someday I will just have to show you how he does it, its so funny. 
Alex, the one that speaks katchikel is still so funny.  He told us he just really likes his coffee, thats why he cant leave it. But he also told us when we asked if he read the chapter from the BoM, "oh yeah, its really great.  it has great advice, it is really quality."  which directly translates to "didnt read", but he said he would read the next chapter. 
Oh!  We had divisions again!  I went to Chimaltenango with Hna Arguello, she is great.  and I saw hna Blackmer there!  She is over there still, so that was a really fun and learning experience.
Ok, Francisco, he is a good guy, his son died on friday.... from cancer.. it was really sad because he told us that he would never see his son again, so we shared the plan of salvation, but he is having a hard time understanding life after this world...  It was so cool though.  We taught him sunday and then said that we would pass by on monday to visit again sometime and he said he wouldnt be there for much of the day, so we were just going to say we could visit another day but then he said, "no no!  What time are you coming?  I will wait for you!"  And he did, he is so cool.  a long time ago he went to church, but he hasnt for a while now.  We feel like he will start making progress really soon. 
Angelica, as long as we can get everything straightened out, she will get divorced, married, and baptized this week... Miracles guys, they happen! 
I also have a VERY EMBARRASSING story to tell you guys someday... I dont know when.. havent decided yet... but its a good one.  Thats for sure. 
Shout out to Aunt Connie, how are you doing?  and Joe and Aaron?  And Hunter?  And Uncle Ken and Uncle Ralph? And everybody?
I love you all.  and I really am so glad to be part of your family!  And thank you for everything you do for me still!  ADIOS!
Be safe and happy and I love you all.
Love, Hermana Evans
