all of the lights alll of the lighhhtts‏

ARE OUT. yes. we have NO POWER. in my house. this is the 3rd day. i'm going to die. (shout out to Kanye West for the song that's been in my head non·stop since we lost the lights). i sweat to freaking death in the night and can't sleep, it's a beautiful thing.

first. who do i have to get mad at for NOT TELLING ME BACKSTREET BOYS HAVE A NEW SONG? like. i'm seriously upset that i had to accidentally see the music video at the hospital... you people need to keep me updated. and someone needs to buy me backstreet boys concert tickets please.

well last week.. sorry i didn't write. not much happened. my dear companion had the runs.. so we were basically on house arrest since she had to go to the bathroom every 10 minutes for 4 days... that poor thing. basically just found out i have athlete's foot and that jumping on my bed is still decently fun. oh also. we tried to leave the house and teach one lesson... we ended up in the house of a Jehovah's Witness.. who sat there trying to argue with me as i patiently won the battle with kindness and my winning smile.. while my comp is sweating to death and telling me we have to leave NOW and this dude just keeps yelling out scriptures i have to look up in the Bible. classic. she made it to the bathroom, no worries.

this weeek... i heard my favorite one direction song in the street. the acoustic version. I DIED. 

our new Bishop.. is WAY RICH. his wife made us dinner.... best homemade food i have eaten in Nicaragua. it was like this chicken pasta and some chocolate cake.. i died. so good. then his daughter busts out Reese's candy bars and gives us each two. so great.

our new area.. is so nice.. i saw like 4 range rovers the other day.. parked all by each other. i had to blink to make sure i was still in Nicaragua.

OH MY GOSH WAIT. best news ever. for any of y'all who remember.. in Matagalpa i was teaching my favorite family ever, Victor and Reina. WELL. they got married and baptized last weekend! finallllllly :) my old companion called me and i about cried. i love them sooo much and could not be happier to hear that they are finally members of this true church! ahhhhhh. love life:)

this weeeek... found an awesome AWESOME family. the dad speaks fluent english and LOVES to talk to us in english.. the mom is adorable and sooo kind. and their kids are the cutest. so the first time we talk to them they tell us they're Jewish.. i panicked cause i do NOT know how to teach people to believe in Christ if they don't believe in Christ right? then the next time.. they tell us they're the Jews who believe in Christ... didn't know that was a thing.. but i will take it. so we talked them in to coming to church because they haven't been to church in years. Sunday morning we call them.. and the dad tells us that everyone else is sleeping and they will come next sunday.. i was sad. but we prayed and prayed and prayed that by some miracle they would show up.. anddddddddd.. MIRACLE. they came.. like an hour late.. BUT THEY CAME. oh my gosh they are awesome. i love them. pray for them. Hans and Charleni. :)

ahhh so hey. life is so good. miracles happen. i'm sweating. i'm actually like really hungry currently in case you're wondering. and i LOVE being a missionary. that about sums up my life.

LOVE Y'ALL SO MUCH! :)
