Como se dice... NAILED IT?



I don't know if this title is completely accurate but its pretty close...for one I am officially half way through my time here at the CCM! It is crazy and I don't know where the time has gone but I am loving every minute of it here in paradise. I love it a lot more when curly fries are involved but sadly that only happens every other week.

The Spanish is also coming back much faster than I had thought it would. I know I gave a shout out to Señor O'Donnell last week but for real...he is the real MVP.  That and the blessings from the Lord are real.

So here in the CCM we teach "fake" investigators. They are investigators that our teachers taught in real life. Our first week we taught Francis and prayed for her a lot. Well yesterday we were able to talk to the real Francis over the phone and she talked about how she felt the Lord bless her life. She had gotten some pretty awesome blessings because of our prayers and it really strengthened my testimony of the Lord answering our prayers.

Another blessing was randomly finding a picture of Katie when she was here in the CCM. I freaked out. It made me so happy! and then turns out Hermana Coulam went to school with Katie's companion at the CCM and knew her really well. It was pretty crazy and just verified once again for me just how small the Mormon world is.

Hermana Hanson also decided we needed to work out so Monday we hit the gym. I am now convinced that Satan believes in exercise. My body hurt for days and I have only now just recovered. Literally used muscles I didn't know I had.

This week though was pretty low key. EXCEPT MY SISTER GOT ENGAGED. Yes it's true. I didn't get married when she went on her mission but as soon as I leave for mine she goes and puts a ring on it. But for real I am so happy for her and Eric. They are going to be awesome together and I'm pumped to have him as a brother in law. But other than that everything is great in Mexico City. We had a party for our District Leader's birthday the other week and we are a super tight district. 



It will be sad to leave them but everyday I get more excited to go to Gilbert. I know I was called there for a reason and I'm excited to go out and do the Lord's work.

To the moon and back!
