Another week come and gone. This week up until now has been pretty awesome! Down here
in the the super catholic countries everyone celebrated the Semana santa or holy week,
remembering the last week of Christ's life. I guess that it is like their Easter but there are no
bunnies or good chocolate candy. For most of the DR it is a time to drink and party... Haha
They all have a tradition to make something called sweet beans... It is so good! Look it up on
the Internet and make some if you can! The bad thing about it is that we get it offered to us like
5 times a day which means lots of Hershey squirts at the end of the day.
We have had a few FHEs with some families that I didn't really know before, but know are super
close. There are two little old ladies that we go and visit who have been members for about 25
years. The thing is that every time we go over they always have to give us something.. They just
have way
too much love. On Sunday I ate mashed potatoes for the first time in about 14 months.. We ate
at some members house and they made us an American dinner. It was nice not to have rice and
beans for once. Their son left on Monday to serve in Mexico.
Today was a pretty chill P Day. We hit all of our goals for the month of march so president bought
us pizza and we watches a super good movie called Big Hero 6.. I know I probably sound stupid
because that movie came out a long time ago.. but it was new to me! I am so excited for General
Conference! It is super weird to think that this will be my last Conference on the mission. One last
spiritual boost before I come home. Well I know its a short one but that doesn't change the fact
that I love you all so much! Happy Easter!

P.S. I found a poop stain on my back... its not from me!
