No Habla Espanol, Las Cruses, NM

What a week this one has been! Sister Montini and I finished planning for exchanges with the sisters and we chose to focus on a portion of President Uchtdorf's Forget Me Not talk - the part of forgetting not to be happy now! and in it he relates it to Charlie and the Chocolate factory and waiting for our golden tickets and how we ought not to be doing that - and so Sister MOnitini and I made golden tickets for our sisters! maybe if I am feeling ambitious I will make anotherone and send it home.. but they are so neat ! and we figured out how to open a candy bar and stick them in there with out it even being noticeable! so rad!

So we went on exchanges this week and the sisters we went with serve in the spanish branch- and I went to their area and my goodness I felt so totally and utterly useless! these people are rattling off a million miles an hour in some language I cannot understand and I just sat there... but it was really cool becasue you can still fel the spirit even if you have absolutely no idea what they are saying! It was neat.. but now I really want to learn spanish even moreso!

Also exciting news for this week - I went dumpster diving! Sister Montini accidently threw her name tag away and she happened to be wearing a pencil skirt that day so I jumped in and rescued it! what a day!

IN my last few minutes - know that I love you all., Read Ether 12:27 -- you all should know it anyway... But that is what I am working on this week. We had a really good companionship inventory this week where I really learned some of my weaknesses and am really going to try to turn them around into strengths.
