week 5

MTC Week 5: "Dont let the magic pass you by"
 
Sunday night at devotional the speaker showed us old mormon message videos from the 70's.  they were hilarious and touching all at the same time. one of the slogans was the title above and i think it fits perfectly for this past week! we celebrated our 1 month anniversary of coming here (and 1 month till we) go on saturday! we had a cute little martinelli's toast again but this time we made goals for what we needed to accomplish before we leave.  my whole district has gotten so close were almost sad that the time is all down hill from here but we are also soo excited to go to the netherlands! we realized though that time goes by so fast and that we cant let one moment of "magic" pass us by. haha so cheesy but our goals reflect that slogan and im excited to see all of our progress in the next 3 1/2 weeks!
 
One exciting thing that happened last weekend was an unexpected field trip! the health center was closed and my companion had a horrible cough so we got to leave the MTC and go to urgent care and walgreens! (for those of you who dont know, the only other time we can leave campus is to go to the temple which is accross the street) it was a fun little adventure and i got to buy some "healthy" snacks to make me happy.  and my companion doesnt keep me up all night coughing and snoring so im happy :)
 
I'm out of time again but im doing great, still loving it here, loving the people im with, the spirit i feel, and the language i am learning (most of the time). 
hope you all got to see the photos! only 3 1/2 more weeks and i can start posting some myself and explaining them more! thanks aaron for posting them!
love you all!
