Hola!! ¿Que pasa familia?

Me parece que todos estan aprendiendo español. Que guay! (apparently they only say guay in Spain. It means cool). Van a ayudarme a recordar mi español cuando regreso. No quiero olvidar nada. Les Amo muchisimo!!!!!

So it sounds like you have had a pretty good week. Mine has been pretty good too. I am now doing biggest loser with Hermana Lindley, Nickoliasen, and Earnshaw. Do you remember Hermana Nickoliason? She was with me a little while in the MTC and lived with me in Malaga. Hermana Earnshaw was with me in the MTC too. But, yeah, kind of fun huh. Haha.

Maria Jose still wants to get baptized. She is still smoking though. But slowly quitting. Which is great. The Hermanas are still working with her a lot. She´ll do it, I´m sure. We have one new investigator this week. She stopped the elders on the street and they thought it would be better if the Hermanas taught her. We are happy to because she told us she wants to be baptized about 5 times during our lesson. She tried to get baptized a few years ago but her dad wouldn´t let her. but now she´s old enough that she can do it anyway. She´s probably like 25 or so. She is really sweet. We are excited to teach her. We just have a lot of finding to do here in San Fernando.

Monica, the girl who wants to get baptized, is really our only good investigator. But we really feel like the work is about to get better in Spain and we are hoping to see that here in San Fernando. so we are working, trying to find those who will listen. I think we will find some more people soon.

I´m so glad everything went ok with Benjamin. I am so excited for Shannon. I can´t wait to see him. I bet she is so dang happy.

Hermana Smith is really great. She actually reminds me a lot of Stefanie nelson. I´m not really sure why. But I really do like her. She is a hard worker. She cares about the people and wants to do her best. The only thing she´s not good at is realizing that it´s ok that she´s not perfect. She has taught me a lot about how to do contacts in the street and how to be a good missionary. I´m not really sure what else to say about her. What else would you like to know? She´s from Virginia.

So today I am definitely missing the food from my neighbors in Sevilla. The Baena family. Yesterday we came home from church to see a plate full of fish...whole fish, not gutted or anything. head and all. I was sure that Pepi would clean the fish first but you know what she did?...she covered them in flour and plopped them in the frying pan....then she put them on the table...and I had to eat it. haha. It really wasn´t so bad. You just tear of the head and pull out the spine and eat what´s inside. It tasted a lot like a fish stick. So not so bad in the end, just not the most pleasant thing to think about. I´ll send you Hermana Baena´s address if you want. I´ll have to send it in a regular letter because i don´t have his address with me right now.

What ever address you used to send me my letters worked. So keep using that one. I was so excited to get home from Seville to find a bunch of letters waiting for me from you guys. Oh, and guess what I finally did? I sent tanners package. Yay!!!! He should get that soon. I hope he likes it. He should probably open the letter last because I talk about what he got in it. That is so cool you got 9th out of 100! That is awsome!!! I really want to do this with you when I come home. You are awesome. I know I can´t do 22 push ups. I tried not too long ago. didn´t work too well. Mom, you´re awesome. you didn´t even do the whole 12 weeks? No way. I missed that the first time i read it.

I want to hear dad´s talk on the mists of darkness. I bet that was so cool. Dad, you have to tell me about it! I miss our family nights. I always learned a lot.

I know it blesses our family. Well, I better run. The computer is going to kick me off. I´m sorry Madi emailed me and I totally didn´t have time to email back, but I will write her a letter today to make up for it. I love you all so much!!! You are the best family ever. I hope Tanner likes his present. I still have to finish the family package. I can´t wait to send it. I´m just missing a couple little things. I´ll send it soon. But tanner's is gone. It is on it´s way!!! Yay!!!!!

I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!have a great week!!!!
Love,
Morgan
