hello, everybody!


this has been a week of exciting news.

1) Kim is having her baby right now as we speak! They don't know if it's a boy or a girl... it was going to be a surprise. So we'll find out today. YAY! Also we found out their dog is pregnant. (i feel like i have to live through their family. ha.)

2) We found out where sister martinez is going... San Benito. Surprise of the week: I'm going with her! We leave on friday. I am excited but also sad. i've been in this area for seven months... i've kind of become attached. i also don't like it because it makes the end of my mission seem closer. i'm pretty sure this will be my last area.. i'll have two and a half transfers left. blech. we get to live in a members home though... we'll be living a life of luxury.

3) Mariana got baptized! She is still just the sweetest woman that I know. She was so happy.



hmm. i think that's it. it seemed like there was so much more. this week we got to go to a thing called border fest. janet jackson came and performed. as well as salina gomez. apparently it's a big deal. we had a booth set up and got to hand out cards and candy and talk to people about the church. apparently there were like 800,000 people that went or some riduculous number. so that was fun and different.

i'm sad to be leaving all of the amazing people that we are teaching. the torres family and briana should be getting baptized any week now. but i feel good about going to san benito with sister martinez. she is awesome. plus she is straight from mexico so i will get to finish off the mission speaking lots of espanol. well, that's it for me this week. hope you're all fine and dandy.

love,

sister morrill
