Hola!
La primavera ya está aquí en Walla Walla! Estoy muy emocionada y también no puedo creer que el tiempo está pasando así! Recuerdo cuando eso sucedió el año pasado! Pero estoy muy feliz que el clima está mejorando.
This week has been super fun to watch as a lot of the trees have started to bloom!!!!! We went for a spontaneous run one morning this week, just Hermana Dust and I and that was a bit rough because I haven't run in a long time but also it was super duper fun to be able to see all the flowers!
This week has thankfully been a lot calmer than the past few weeks and I am sooooooooo grateful for that because it's been a bit of a wild ride up here in Walla Wall. Something really cool that happened this week is that Carmen, the mom of a family we've started teaching is getting really into the Book of Mormon. Like we went over on Wednesday and she had a whole moment where she was like, yeah I need to read the BoM, I'm missing something and reading will help me. And we were like well, you're not wrong, so you should definitely read the book of Mormon. And in like five days she has already made it through 1 Nefi 12 which is amazing! And she had lots of questions and really seems to be wanting to know the truth which is super cool and I am really excited for her. Hopefully her energy helps the rest of her family start to read more as well. Also, side note: she makes some amaaaaaaaazing jugo de piña and it was soooooooooo good.
Also we had zone conference this past Friday which is always a super fun experience. I was a little sad because 2 of my past companions are going home in a week and I just can't believe that because it means that I'm going to be going home pretty soon too! Like what the...... who decided that was okay, jaja.
But otherwise this week has been pretty chill! Just filled with lots of crackheaded moments just because, you know, President stuck the feistiest Hermanas together so that's always a party. Now that the weather is getting nice again, we are starting to have more carne asada fiestas and that is increíble! I think that I honestly have the same problem as a lot of people here, at least people that we've been trying to teach in the Spanish speaking population. When it is dark and cold and rainy or snowy, it just makes me sad and irritated. But now that the weather is getting better and the sun is back, everyone's a lot happier and less angry, including me! What a time, I love it. Especially if it means that we can start crashing fiestas again.
General Conference is this weekend!!!!! Don't forget to tune in, I'm positive it's going to be amazing.
Espero que todo vaya bien durante esta semana que viene!
Con amor,
Hermana Blackburn
