I have so much to tell you! We'll see if I get through it all.
First, we went to the temple this morning. We went to the seven am session. That is crazy early, even for a missionary. :) Anyway, one of the workers was Sis Rasmusen. I don't know if she recognized me and I didn't get to say hi, but I recognized her. It helped that she had a name tag on. ;)
And speaking of the temple. Luis Lugo, the friend that I told you about before, is going to get his endowment on March 6th. We are soooooooooo excited! We are most likely going to be able to go. It will be my first session in Spanish. Very excited!
Okay. :)
One morning we were studying in our apartment and these two little ladies knocked on our door. Now we know what it feels like to be tracted into. It is really awkward. :D I think it is probably more awkward when you are a missionary and realize that this is what you do to people all day. We told them that we were missionaries too and from what church. The conversation ended soon after that.
So Elder Schwarze and Elder Ipsen are our zone leaders. That means that they can deliver our supplies. So they came by one morning (it may have been they same morning that we got tracted into) with a bag of stuff and a box. Hna Ghan took the bag and I reached for the box. We were standing in the doorway and Elder Schwarze started to hand me the box. Well, he lifted it as though it was nothing so I didn't realize that it was full of Book of Mormon’s and weighed about half as much as I do. So I began to fall into him as he let it go. Luckily he is a gentleman and caught the box instead of letting me fall on my face. :) Elder Ipsen said something like "Did you just---" "I know, I know." It was quite funny.
I'm excited for Whitney's birthday. I really hope she likes the gift I got for her. I know she will, but there is always that little doubt. :) Make sure that you give her a hug every other minute that day from me. I have been missing her a lot more lately. :/ :) You should make sure that she goes to Olive Garden and gets some fried lasagna if it is still there. Tell her to think of me when she has it.
Let's see.
TAG--- We have a game that we play. You may have heard of it. It is called TAG. What you do is whenever you see the bikes or the car of another set of missionaries; you slap a sticky-note on it that says "TAG, you're it" or something to that point. We have a blast with that. It puts a bit more fun into the day.
[Andrea ran out of time and said she will write the rest in a letter. We will post photos as soon as that package arrives.]
LOVE YOU!!!
AMOR!!!!
Ella
It will be my first session in Spanish.
