Dear Family,
Well, this week was pretty rough too. The two people that we are teaching both got called into work on sunday when both of them said that they had the day off and promised to come to church. We may have to stop teaching them as well since they aren't doing anything that we're asking them. May have to start over again this week.
We've been working hard this past week but not many things have come out of it. I went on an exchange with the former Assistant to the President and we both worked really hard but didn't find anyone to teach. We've taught a few lessons but with nobody progressing, the lessons didn't really serve their purpose. However, it's all good. My testimony is growing in the gospel and my knowledge is getting deeper.
We went to the Temple this past week which was really fun. It's nice that we can go to the temple once a transfer.
We got our car fixed this last week! I hit the sideview mirror on a filled trash can and broke the attachment to the car. We were told that the fix was suppose to take an hour but we were in and out in 15 minutes! I feel spoiled in the fact that we don't have to say anything or pay anything to get the cars fixed. I guess it helps that the car isn't ours.
That's really all I got for right now. Past few months have been rough but I'm pushing along.
Thanks for the support from home!
Love y'all

Dear Family,
Well I went on 3 exchanges this week with other companions. It was a really busy week! The only problem is that nobody we are teaching want to progress so we're just gonna start all over with our teaching pool. I've been having a lot of fun this week though. My companion talks and makes jokes a lot.
My spanish is coming along as well! I'm in Alma 34 in the Book of Mormon. My accent is really starting to disappear. What I need to start doing now is studying vocabulary! I'm getting excited about it. Being fluent sounds like a lot of fun, especially when you encounter mean people.
Sorry, I don't have much more, it was just an uneventful week as well.
Love y'all!
