Hi everyone! it has been anther wonderful rainy week in ibarra. It is beautiful here with lots of mosquitos it has been so fun hearing about all of you back home. i am so happy that ria and jake made it up to sj also that lara and todd will be up there before we now it. Also about kirsty and josh yo guys are going to have a beautiful girl.
Well lets see what has happened this eek. it has been pretty normal but i had another karen moment haha first off mom i love love love those skirts that you sent me they are so cute. i feel like a new women ha you are probably wondering what thsoe skirts have to do wiht my story. Well one rainy day we were riding in a bus. The buses here are kind of crazy. They really dont have a litmit to how many people can be on board. When you need to get off its like jumping over hurdles and juggling basketballs at the same time. You yell out GRACIAS. THe driver comes to a fast halt and you jump off. When you jump off you have two options. you can jump on to the road or to the side walk ledge. Usually i jump to the side walk because it is much easier. Well i was wearing one of those cute new skirts and i jumpped to the side walk like i always do but for some reason this time my legs didnt have the leaping span like before with my skirts hahah so i fell very dramatically but dont worry I didn't hurt anything. I have just learned to laugh at these moments because we have so mnay of them here on the mission.
Anyway the mission work is amazing and hard but i love it. We have found some new people that are pretty awesome. this saturday we have a baptism planned for our investigator named Oscar.
sorry i have ran out of time to write. I lvoe you all so much! hna WIlhelm

Dear Family,
The weather here is like it is in St. Johns around the 24th of July. Just simple beautiful. We get some sun and a nice cool breeze and a little rain everyday. This week I hit my 9th month mark now. I guess it is all down hill from now. This week we got to see our investigator, George, get baptized. It was pretty awesome. This boy is 18 years old and already wants to go on the mish. This week we have worked pretty hard trying to find people. Its my favorite when we come home from working all day and just sleep like a rock. Mission sleep is wonderful. Some time the mission can be hard, but I feel divine help every day.

I am so happy to hear that all of the family is trying to move up to St. Johns or close to it. That is like my dream when I grow up. haha

Well sorry this is going to be super short. I love you all so much! Chao!
