Week 17

Hola familia y amigos,

Well this week was christmas! I got to talk to my family and also give gifts to a ton of little kids that dont have pants half the time.  Me and my companion went and gave around 250 ballon animals to kids and also candy to the members.

   Also we were filled with delicious food like duck tamales and molletes, and paunche. I am especially grateful for the opportunity to talk to my family. It was hard to find English words to say. I am also greatful for the opportunity to talk to my brother, even though it was for only 15 min.

Well this is short so sorry, but also we had a baptism! Well not our baptism but a baptism of the hermanas in our ward and Miguel wanted me to baptize him. Some people say it's because I'm a gringo because I only talked to him 2 times for 2 min. but its alright, I like being a gringo! Also, we went to a volcano today! One of more than a handful in Guatemala. This one is covered with water so its not active and the water isn't super cold either! It was cool to be next to the water again but to bad I couldn't go swimming.

I'm loving it in Guatemala and can't wait til I can speak perfectly!;)
