"I am Leaving on Tomorrow!!"

Hello!!! 

This week has by far been the best.  I am so ready to leave the MTC but I think I am almost use to it! The is a Hermana Gutierrez who is the cutest stinkin' sister in here.  Everyday she has a cute skirt on so I tell her everyday,"Such a cute skirt Hermana Gutierrez!!" She is serving in Japan:) Well today she was wearing a dress and I said,"Cute dress sister Gutierrez!!"  
She replying in her cute English,"It is not a skirt it is a dress, awww thanks!! Guess what I got my travel plans!!"
I said," When are you leaving?"
"ON TOMORROW!!!!" hahaha:) She was so excited, I wish I was leaving "on tomorrow" She says she will look for the Owiagi's (sorry I don't know how to spell the name) So that will be pretty fun. 

We did some street contacting, meaning we walked up to English speaking Elders and sisters and just went off in Romanian about Jesus Christ and how it was true then asked them to read the Book of Mormon. That was probably my favorite part about this week:) It was great to see the looks on these missionaries faces, and when you got to someone who didn't even speak English it was even better!! :) 

Ok, mom you asked for some Elder stories.  Haha:) The Elders in our district got into some serious trouble last week.  They were bouncing a bouncy ball in the residence when the custodian came in and grabbed the ball and said, "You can't bring your own exercise equipment to the MTC." That was the first sign of trouble.  The next night the German Elders (Who live right below the Romanian Elder's rooms) Called campus security "claiming" (And by claiming I am pretty sure that they actually were really loud) that the Elders were too loud. So the Varstnici had a knock from the security officer at like midnight. "GO TO BED" haha:) And that is the worst that has happened.  So far they have actually been pretty good!! Elder Weaver gives me candy every day, Elder Avila makes me smile and Elder Christensen is helping me out with the language a ton.  All in all we have a good set of Elders:) No one is going to be going home anytime soon. I included some pictures of them:) 

Yesterday Elder Quintin L. Cook was the speaker during our devotional and it was awesome:) I always listen for the apostles promise when they do come, and his was really amazing.  He said that because we are missionaries everyone we love will be blessed and that this blessing was endorsed by an apostle of the Lord. So, now I really do have to love everyone so that they are blessed.  So I love you all I really do!! The Lord is now blessing all of you and I invite you this week to notice the tender mercies of the Lord in your life, at least one of them.  Love you all! Alden, Dalan I loved your letters this week they made me laugh so hard!! I miss you all and I have been writing a ton of hand written letters to people, but I realized I do not have your addresses!! I wrote one to Noah and Isabel, and to Ian and Wesley. So I need your addresses!! Please e-mail them to me. And PLEASE I beg of you, send my dear Elder mail while I am in the MTC:) (That is to you Kenzie, and Jade) I make an end of this weeks e-mail.

(None of the pictures she sent are coming in correctly.)

Love,
