HAPPY 43 AND 44TH birthday MOM AND DAD!

Happy happy birthday shout out to Mom and Dad. Well technically moms shout out will be next week... but they go hand in hand. Also shout out to Lindschris because I failed to give the shout out to her last week! HAPPY APRIL BIRTHDAY´s :) Have the best week ever!! 

WOW, wasn´t general conference the best?! Every conference I don´t think that anything can beat it until the next conference comes around. UNREAL. Wow, I learned sooo many things that I´m super excited to apply en la obra misional. :) Hope you all will do the same.  I thought of you guys in one of the talks that talked about sharing with your family the spiritual experiences you are having. Look at us, all on top of things. Now you really can´t bail on the spiritual thoughts of the week. I don´t remember who talked about this, but he explained it perfectly, because I really do learn so much when you send them to me. 

As for this week, we had quite a crazy week. It started off with the longest day ever on Tuesday. We had district meeting which takes about 2 and a half hours to travel to. We were waiting to return and to make a long story short we ended up getting home at 6:30 at night because the train got canceled and then... ya long story. I was DYING. We even had appointments this day and ended up missing the majority of them. Ayy ayy ayy... after a long day of a test of patience we recognized the reason for it all. We met a man named Marcello and talked to him the whole way home. About everything. He´s going to Austria in 2 weeks, but we went to visit him and ended up meeting his family as well. They are gold. He has the cutest little nephew ever. We haven´t talked with his Sister yet, but I´m thinking that the family of his sister has lots of potential. I´ll keep you posted, we´re going backtomorrow. :) 

The rest of the week went pretty well. We were gone for the weekend because we had to stay in Monte Grande for Conference. We stayed with Hermana Hansen. We had peanut butter! :)  Hehe We had one lesson on Saturday night that was excellent. The lady just started crying towards the end and all during the prayer. She told me that she was certain that I was an angel sent to her. Haha apparently I change my voice or something when I teach because the comp that I was with said I have a special voice or something. My comp on the other hand the other week told me that I speak too kind and people are going to fall asleep. Hahaha she´s so funny, she´s super sparky so you can imagine she has a bit of a louder voice. Hahaha :)  

I´m having a rough time remembering all that happened this week, because we were only here for basically 3 days. It was a bit crazy, but I wouldn´t trade anything for the conference. It was amazing. I´ve already forgotten a ton of it, so I need to review the talks again. I loved the talk from Elder Ballard I think? The one that talked about the importance of simple doctrine and the strength of our testimonies. My new goal is to make sure that people can feel of my desire to share this gospel. I read a talk that talked about recognizing our purpose as missionaries and it is absolutely incredible. I´ll have to share it with you but I don´t remember what it is called. I´ll let you know next week. :) 

Love you all so much, hope all is going well. Have an amazing week! 

Con amor, Hermana Wright 

PS Sorry this is a lame letter. I had a bunch of funny stories to share but for some reason I can´t remember ANY of them. Hahaha besides the one that I took a bug out of my companions eye but I was having a laugh attack... so you can imagine how that went. Haha FAILURE. 

PSS Dad mentioned how the weather is cooling down... Ha I´m pathetic I die of cold already sometimes and it´s APRIL. Uhh, I´m going to die in the winter.  I don´t know what happened to me... I used to never be cold! Haha squirrell.. Oh and mom we had a crepe in one of the houses for dessert. I was thinking of you every bite of it. :)
