week 34!!!!!

First, I apologize for not emailing last week. There were some important things to do. But lots of cool things have happened these past two weeks and most importantly,,,,,,, I have pictures!!! Last week was my companion's (Elder Garcia's) birthday and I got him a cake and surprised him at the district meeting. Wait first some background: The whole zone meets in the same building for their district meetings and we end with a zone prayer all together. So when the time came for the prayer (everyone was in on it) I disappeared behind the stage and brought out the cake! There were others in the cake shop but this one was definitely the best :)))))))))))))))))))))

Later they were arguing about how to cut it just right and Elder Garcia went up and just took a bite out of it with his face, hahahaha

This week we also had our monthly (technically month-and-a-half-ly) interviews with the mission president and it was pretty intense. I was a pretty nervous because... it's kinda hard to explain. So our President has a  history of having really intense interviews to the point where good honest missionaries leave sobbing and feeling horrible. (They've even told me that they can hear the yells of President from down the hall) Fortunately, I think he has changed a lot. Overall, I was able to explain to him my worries just fine and all in Spanish (last time it was pretty difficult). He was able to help me out a lot and I left really motivated to be better. He asked a lot about my companion and I was honest and we left with a few goals. I was so motivated that I felt like I just left the CCM. ***

This week we are going to have a conference with Elder Soares of the twelve and I'm SO EXCITED!! The two missions in Costa Rica will combine and that's just about all I know... but i'm still excited!!

Hope you liked the pictures this week!
