3017 - Us with Johana and another little girl that got baptized that day from the ward, Jaquelin.
3002 - Johana loved posing.
2758 - Lunch in Antigua with one of my most favorite women ever, from La Mariposa, Blanqui, and la Hermana Wetzel!! Bliss. two weeks ago.
2801 - Then, this past week for pday, Blanqui and her girls came to Antigua and we had an incredible day.
2847 - Oh, and Mom, to finally answer your question.. Yes, we can see the volcanoe from our house :) Volcan de Agua.
3014 - Almost the whole branch was there because the bus dropped us all off in Antigua from Stake Conference (which was a broadcast from SLC... Pres Uchtdorf and Elder Holland spoke... just for Guatemala... incredible).
After many scares... a teenage girl that the missionaries (before I got here) have known for a long time, got baptized yesterday. She was so cute and happy. She has gone to girls camp, attended church a bunch of times, has actually come out to do visits with us, etc., so she was very ready. She just has a step-dad that is constantly changing his mind about letting her be with us, but it´s okay, because the mom loves us.
This was not a good week for me and men. I may actually resent them a little bit right now, but it´s a good thing that there are a lot of incredible ones around here, too, that sort of makes up for it. 1 - Johana´s step dad. 2 - A husband of a woman that has come to Church a million times with her daughters, but won´t let them get baptized for ridiculous and controlling reasons. 3 - A drunk less active that we visit and claims to have more faith and know the Book of Mormon better than we do. 4 - and of course there are always those men that cat-call, whistle, follow, and say horrible, sick things to us. It´s kind of a bummer that I understand Spanish lots better than I did when I first entered, because there are some sick men here. But there is a group in our area that is always in the same house that is worse than any other cat-callers I´ve dealt with so far.
Anyhow... oops... out of time!!!
Love you!!
life is fantastic and happy!
