| BAUTISMO!! Dylan (member friend), Ignacio, Cristobal, ME, and Hermana Navarrete |
Guess what?!? We've moved! I thought about putting together little cards to send to all our friends with the address to let them know, but I'm working with a limited budget. We had cambios (transfers) yesterday in the morning and they said "You're not transferring, but you are moving to a different house!" So instead of one or two people packing, it was everyone and everything and cleaning and washing and packing and agh! Loco! But also fun. Our new house is smaller but I get the top bunk and it is a beautiful, buttery, light yellow, and it has a little patio and I plan on having breakfast picnics every morning.
Funny thing of the week (and really my whole time here): I have an admirer. A 16 year old boy in my ward. He, and also his parents, have made it very clear me that he wants to marry a gringa. Wow! That's awesome! But maybe not one who is serving a mission! And also 4 years older than you! And also 6 inches taller than you! Silly lil' guy. I just laugh!
Apparently we had a temblor! That's like an earthquake but a little smaller. Chile is so ready for earthquakes that no one even feels them anymore.
Okay so we have a lot of awesome people in our lives here in Javiera Carrera, but this week was all about Ignacio and Cristobal. We went to the temple, and it was awesome for them to see it in real life. They want to go ASAP. Then, they got baptized! Woohoo! Can't really describe the way I feel, but super mega ultra happy describes it almost. Their lives are so hard but they are strong and the gospel REAL LIFE BLESSES people and I have so much faith in them!
Okay, gotta blast but I love y'all! Hope you're smiling big and laughing and hugging everyone you love!
LOVE HERMANA SIEBACH
PS--I promised pictures this week, so I got lots!!
