This is Dolly. Maybe again, because I cant remember if I sent this picture. We dont have any pictures with Johnathon yet. I actually am not even sure how to correctly spell his name. I will find out on his baptisimal record! And send some pictures with him in white. Yes!

 If you look really closly you will see us at the visitor center with Jorge. We took him to see the Joseph Smith movie and afterwards he testified about prophets and why they are so important. He has a bit of a swearing problem and used some words im sure have never been said that close to the temple, but were working on it. He also told us a pointless story about how he was offended by an arizona pizza place that said they had the best pizza since he used to live in chicago. Then he found out it was chicago style pizza. We love him anyways.

Waiting with Cecy and Deanna for there ride after church. Cecy got bit by a scorpian about two years ago and told god if he sent help she would do anything he wanted. Guess who showed up that same day? Missionaries! They taught her the first lesson and she has been a faithfull member ever since. She already went through the temple and we are working with her husband.

There was leadership training this week so we had Hermana Scott with us for four days. She is interesting and speaks good spanish and only has one transfer left. Isnt that a great picture? I have some jumping skills.

Our branch cancels dinner on us alot so we starve or eat cereal. The last time it happened we just went with the other Hermanas to their dinner appointment. It was way fun. Doing stuff with other missionaries is always fun. Like the hike.

You may have spotted Silvia and Maria, the recent converts, in this picture. They are such a funny family. The other girl is visiting and the biggest 14 year old I have ever seen. They all came to church yesterday and there was a baby blessing. During the blessing I hear Maria's friend ask "are they baptizing it?" and Maria says "Yeah, probably." I guess we still have a little to teach her.

This is at the beginning of the hike. It was so dark to begin with, well obviously because the sun had not risen yet. People besides me had flashlights and their where no injuries.

This is at the top. Please feel free to send this to ADIDAS for there next clothing ad.

We made it! This is my zone except minus some whimpy sisters. It was such a cool view! We would of stayed up there longer but we realized we where wasting our pday.

The injury. This is in the night after I washed all the rocks out. Please notice the bruises and what looks to be tiger scratches. Don't worry, I think its cool

Mafia Jorge. He came with us to a baptism and then stayed for a stake talent night.

Exchanges with Hermana Tejada. I avoided saying her name all day because I wasnt sure how to say it correctly. She is from the Dominican Republic and she used to be Jehovahs Witness. So cool and very interesting.

Me and my companion in the morning before we really understood how hard it was to ride bikes.

We went to the temple this morning! I know I look like a loner in the back there but its just because I tall I swear! And my companion is front and center if you wondered. We went to the 6 session so we had to wake up super early. Way fun and spiritual
Moving Hermana Juarez! It was on Sunday so we had to be so rushed so we wouldnt miss church. They ask you not to as a missionary. Actually as a normal member too. I had to be on exchanges with a member we live with for saturday night which was so weird.

Two of my future companions and my big white head. They are both from Guatamela and are hilarious. We are praying to be in a trio, them in english and me in spanish because we need to practice. 

At the dinner. On my left are english sisters who are in my zone that I get along great with. We went to their house this morning and its a mansion! They fed us breakfast and we gave them a ride to here to email.

My MTC district reunited! Well a few of us. The others went to Guatamela and Texas.
