1/4 11: Happy New Year

Feliz Ano Nuevo!!!! This week again we were with the other four missionaries again im 12 de Marzo for a few days during new years eve! For New Years Eve we got to stay up until 12 and watch fireworks! We went up to the rooftop of their apartment and watched fireworks with hot cocoa and freaked out about 2016!! on the 31st there were a ton of those statues they make for the new years and my favorite was the giant Captain America in front of the bakery on our street. People light these statues on fire and its actually kind of anticlimatic,haha. They kind of just sit there and watch the statue burn and sometimes it fizzles out and they have to relight it. And of course there was plenty of good Latino music throughout the day playing in the streets and in the night. 

       Weve been teaching this couple, Carmen and Francisco Vasquez, and they came to church with us yesterday! They both have so much faith and are such great people. Francisco recentlly had half of his left foot amputated so he cant walk without crutches and wasnt able to make it to church because of this for the past few weeks. But last Friday he was able to get a wheelchair from a foundation here so he can make it to church now! Theyre so cute and theyre like our grandparents who give us mangos when we visit! Were excited to keep teaching them this week. 

       Hope everyone has some good new years resolutions, love you all! CHAO!
