Hi Lil Missionary Sister

AWWWW my cute lil sister cutie. Wow I browsed the pics and first of all, yOU'RE GORGEOUS HOLY GOODNESS

and second of all, your camera is AMAZING!!! Dang girl!

Wow Sarah bby you're my favorite. Are you having so much fun?? I've been reading over your emails to the padres and things. Sounds like you're having a blast, the language is a lil tough (but coming), and a Somoan companion is a blast (and a lil different). Wow you're so perfect. I bet the MTC is so fun with all the BYU friends. You'll probably be friends forever. They're officially off limits for future marriage prospects cause...mission...lock your heart...BUT they'll be friends for life. That's one of my favorite thigns. You just make your best friends ever on the mission.

What are preparation days like? What do you do?

Well it's been a great week over here. We had zone conference which was heaven (and sad because it's the Daytons last one (my mission president and wife)) and then also MIRACLE!!!!!!!!!!!! A 9 yr old girl we've been teaching IS GETTING BAPTIZED THIS WEEK!!!!!!!!!! Her Grandma would get baptized with her but the grandma (Rita) is waiting to find an apartment so she can move out and not live with her boyfriend. The classic. I hope that won't be a huge problem in the Philippines but ay ay ay here in Spain no one gets married. Law of chastity out the window. Geez. But anyways. IT'S A HUGE MIRACLE!!!!!!

Other reason is because transfers are this next week! So we'll get the call this Saturday and then I'm outta here next Tuesday! I have NO IDEA where I'll be going but at that point I'll have 6 weeks left of my mission. 1 transfer left. Crazy. But it's such a blessing that Shirley's getting baptized because that means that after 6 whole months of working and working and working I get to see a baptism before I go. :))) Such a blessing. Heavenly Father loves us. :)

And today preparation day was so fun. We woke up at 4 AM (HA I WIN!;)) and went to the bunkers which has a beautiful view of all of Barcelona (and Hospitalet). And we went to Montjuic and took tons of pics. Happy happy day.

The mission's the best. I just love you so much Sarah bby I'm so exciting that you're having so much fun and just loving it. You're so amazing. Do you feel like your english is getting worse? I remember thinking that. I feel like I learned Spanglish and now can't speak english or spanish really, but what comes out the most naturally is straight up spanglish haha. it's a fun time.

Well Sarah bby I love you so much!!!! 

I hope you have the best week ever and eat yummy american food for me. :)))

I love you and am so amazed by how incredible you are. The best missionary in the entire world. Also you make me laugh and I appreciate that. You've got funny stories ha :))

Love you
Love,

Mandi
