Christmas card 12/19/11





Well this week was quite interesting. Not a lot of super exciting times, but hey, it was still good!

So you know our two baptismal dates for this next weekend.... ya, extended. Sunday was, well no where near as crazy as the week before. We had one investigator attend and the others were who knows where. Its frustrating, but I guess they still need to learn some things. its just kinda stinky since Elder Yost was going to get one more baptsim, heck, two more, but then both of them need a little more time I guess.

So we had weird intercambios this week. One tuesday and wednesday The leadersand trainers had a training, so us younger companions went in a trio, Elder Dipaz, Elder King, and me, and we worked in Olmue on tuesday and peña Blanca on wednesday. Olmue is probably a good 20-30 minutes away. Its at the base of "La campana" you should look that up on google, it looks WAY sweet, just a big mountain, but I REALLY want to climb it! I hear its like a 5 hour climb, but I love to climb mountains, maybe some day I will! But we got a bunch of "oso" of in other words people werent in there house. However we did get lunch, which was speghetti that was made with ketchup and tuna fish, not youyr regular speghetti! Oh and there was probably a good 3 cups of cooking oil mixed in as well! Ya, we were feeling THAT ONE later! haha But we had a lot of fun, and since we are all young in the mission, we just had a ball! Surprisingly, being the youngest and NOT in my own area, Igot asked a lot what we should do! haha Probably cause I like to lead, but still it was kinda cool! haha Then when we came back to peña on wednesday we remembered that we didnt have keys to our pension, so we had tyo break in through the kitchen door, but we got it! haha Then we worked until about 430 when the training was finished! Then I was back with Elder Yost, and 2 christmas boxes and a little envelope thing! haha I got LOTS of attention for that, they said "Hope you dont expect that next year!" and "Someone is loved, how many palolas (girlfriends) do you have!?!?" haha It was awesome!

Then saturday we literally had a cita for every hour, it was awesome! The sad part, every last one fell through. ya, talk about stinky! haha but thats the life, just normally you have a little better luck than that!

Elder Yost and I had some great comp bonding last night, we decided it was time to make some cheesecake, and well I just received some in a christmas box, so it was easy! in fact, too easy! We finished the first one in literally 3 minutes! I think we beat the time they give directed SO EASILY! haha Then we decided since we did it so fast that we should do another one! So we made another one that we had! haha SO we have cheesecake in our fridge now! Muahahaha! haha I cant wait for lunch today! haha

That was pretty much my week in a nutshell! There ya go, hope all is well and that everyone is preparing for christmas, I have had to beat all the others in the pension so that they dont open their christmas presents from my family and I really wanna open them too! But we are gonna stick it out and have a good christmas!

Feliz navidad a todos! Les quiero!

Elder Marvin
