Many Things to be Grateful For

Hola!

This week was jam packed! We went to the temple on Thursday which is always a lovely experience, I love having a temple in my mission. I feel so blessed. Then during medio dia that day, I cooked, and cooked and cooked some more! I cooked my grandmas famous rolls (and if you´ve never had them then I am very sorry!)

They were a hit!!


















On Turkey day I finished cooking and prayed they turned out, then we were so lucky and went to our mission presidents house and ate dinner with them, a few of their friends who had flown in to see Spain, and a few other missionaries. Well everyone claimed the rolls were a success! So hey, maybe I can cook. But let me tell you what, contacting after turkey and stuffing is not easy!

Segovilla......pretty awesome

Always time for making contacts and a little singing


Today we went to Segovilla for PDay, Andres the angel, drove us so we could get there and still have a PDay! Poor guy had to hang out with 4 girls all day, shopping, taking selfies, and shopping some more. What a good sport! Segovilla is beautiful and full of so much history. I love that about Spain, well Europe in general.









This Saturday night I will find out if I am being transferred to another area, I have been praying the past week that I am not. Because I do NOT want to leave. But I am in Gods hands and whatever he wants for me, I know is best. 

Christmas season is here and I can feel the buzzing! Boy am I excited! I love everything about the Christmas season, and with my mind 24/7 on the Savior I know it is going to be even better! If you haven't seen the new video the church has come out with called He is the Gift I strongly suggest you stop reading this terrible blog post and see it! It is amazing! God is real, he is the best gift we could ever have been given. I love you all.
