"Hermana Dandruff"

I got this birthday treat last Monday. Katelyn would have loved it! It was a churro sundae!

Mom I love you so much! The skirt is perfect and the shirts are so cute! I am loving all the treats and decorations...and so is my companion :) Muchas gracias!!!!
Thank you everyone for making my birthday so special! I got packages from mom and Jordan, Maddie and Rachel and a card from Grandma! I opened them all up during our lunch hour on Tuesday and I LOOOOOVED everything! Then we had to make a trip to the mission office and SUPRISE I had packages from Kayloni and her family, Katelyn, and Marysa! I was so excited! I felt so loved this week :) Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the love. It means the world to me!    

Yummy cake...not sure how they knew my first name haha. Oh and I love the necklace Katelyn! And the chocolate cinnamon cookies were sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good!!!

On Thursday we had an appointment with our new investigator family and guess what they did? They threw me a surprise birthday party! We walked in and all the lights were off and all the kids jumped out and surprised us! They even had a little cake that said Emily. This family is so great. I wanted to cry! There family has been going through a lot of hard times with deaths and drug abuse in the family, but they are working so hard to have unity in their family, and they are finding unity in God! That is one of the greatest blessing of this gospel. It unites families here on earth and for eternity.

I went on an exchange with Sister Kim and Sister Young this week. Sister Kim is from Korea, and she does Korean work here in California but for this transfer so is doing English work, and Sister Young is from Colorado. Pretty much english work is a little awkward for me hahaa teaching in English feels awkward believe it or not! It was fun though because while we knocking doors we had a lot of Spanish contacts that I was able to talk with. Exchanges make the week go by so fast! Literally all week we have been running from appointment to appointment, but I would rather have too much to do than be sitting around with nothing to do!

 This is from a couple weeks ago! We ate this for our Zone activity!

For Peter and Calvin! (because La Tia means "Aunt")

The primary program was this week too! The kids did so great :) They all sang so loud and had their articulos de fe memorized! Heavenly Father has been blessing my piano skills too...I don't have much time to practice, but I always pray that the music will bring the spirit into our meetings, and it always happens.

Some of the primary girls the day of the program! They all wore white. Oh and I love the shirt Marysa!!!

Love you all so much! Thanks again for all the birthday love! I am so happy. I love being a missionary.

Hermana Moooooo
