Total Taco Count:  267

HAPPY NEW YEAR to all!!!!

It´s always been one of my favorite holidays... still not entirely sure why?

We had Carne Asada with one of the families here=)

I can easily say that it was the best Mexican food I have eaten in my entire mission!!

I was in heaven the whole time=)

I got to the point that I wanted to keep eating, but physically couldn´t anymore.

Everyone was saying that New Year's can get pretty sketchy in Mexico.

So obviously we were in the house earlier than normal.

Normally New Year's is celebrated the same here, everyone lights fireworks at midnight.

BUT....

A lot of the people don´t have fireworks.

So what do they do?

Everyone goes out in the streets with their guns and when the clock strikes midnight...

POP POP POP!!

Welcome to Sinaloa.

My companion and I were fast asleep, but there is no way that you can sleep through that!

We woke up ate our 12 grapes or 12 new years wishes....

and TRIED to go back to sleep. =)

All in all it was definitely a New Year's to remember=)

Things are going back to normal now! Which is good!

We have a lot of investigators that are preparing for their baptism!

One of our investigators is a little bit older.

He only has one leg and is in a wheelchair.

He is the sweetest old man=)

When we give him "rides" he always sings,

"HERE'S TO YOU MRS. ROBINSON....."

That´s the only part that he knows in English but it is super cute=)

I just want you all to know how much I love the mission=)

I can´t even tell you how amazing it is!!

I love the gospel with my whole heart!!!

Sharing these blessings with others really does bring a happiness unlike any other=)

The church is true!!=)

LOVE YOU ALL=)
