12-30-2013: It's already 2014? No big deal

It was so great to talk to you on Christmas!  I'm so glad it sounds like everyone is doing well! :)
 
Sorry I'm a little late today emailing...We got on earlier for like 5 minutes and then one of the Elders that we drive around had to go to Urgent Care for a sinus infection and that took a bit of time.  Unfortunately, he didn't go to visit with my BFF Dr. Tasneem, but I supose other doctors are pretty good too....hah
 
This week was so good!  We got to celebrate Noche Buena (Christmas Eve) and Navidad with the members and we got to eat lots of rice, beans, and tortillas this week.  OH, and tamales. :)  Lots of yummy food, lots of awesome people, just overall AWESOME.  We got to see B y A on Christmas night and they are doing really well!  B is going to be praying about whether or not she should be baptized without A, and they're even inviting friends to church AND A came with B to church on Sunday even though he's basically lying on his deathbed with the flu/cold type of thing.  I've decided I'm going to go visit B and her family in Mexico one day and just hang out with her and pretend to be Mexican.  I stinking love her.  We're actually seeing her on New Years Eve, so we'll probably do a suuuuuper early celebration by eating a little bit of her Choco-flan and talking about Jesus. Otherwise, just the same awesome business that we get to do every day!
 
AND we had 5 investigators at church yesterday! It was really great, and we've been seeing a TON of blessings from the Lord in our work this week.  We also got to see one of our Less Active youth members really understand the Atonement in her life and it was so cool that the Lord let us witness that experience.  Basically, I love being a missionary. 
 
I don't have a ton of time because we still have to go do other Preparation day stuff, but I wanted to say thanks again for all the letters and Packages! (I got the package from Caleb and Michele and Grandma and Grandpa Blood! Thank you so much!)  I'll be sending thank you cards/letters sometime soon, I promise!  I feel so loved.
 
Sounds like the rest of y'alls week went well!  Glad you could say gbye to Emma Watkins, I'm sure she'll be a great missionary.  And glad it was a good Sacrament meeting, and I'm sure Dad that you'll never follow BYU sports ever again....until Basketball season starts... :)
Thanks again for EVERYTHING!
 
Les quiero mucho y que tengan una semana maravillosa :)
Con amor,
Hermana Sangre
