Well well well..... 

     After logging off last week a ton happened! Mexico is still pretty great! Beck and Turner are fab and life is just so dang good! So last week was good just rough with spanish but its expected and I have had a pretty good mind set about the language compared to my district but it´s all gucci! I LOVE my district we are just like a little family! 

As for last week our lessons went pretty good. We did have one lesson that was pretty bad one day on the plan of salvation (boys if you have any pointers on how to teach that simply please help a sister out!) So we were walking back to our class room kinda disappointed when Gabriel our homie appeared from nowhere and gave us the sweetest pep talk about the language and how it was only our 1ish week here and that we needed to be positive and not get down on our selves. We were like wow he was like an angel and just appeared right when we needed him! Gotta love the Latinos! We were also sad this week because all our latino friends left this week because they are only here for two rather than six. We took a bunch of pics with them and they are gonna email me them when they can so I will try to send them. I think Beck got some too! 

    So I didn´t explain this but every Sunday our Branch President Ruiz gives us a topic to speak on and we are suppose to write a 5 min talk on it in Spanish and then they will call on a couple people to speak in sacrament...you just don´t know if you will get called on till they start the meeting. Anyways so we all prepared our talks on repentance this week and I just had this feeling that I was gonna speak. So we get there to sacrament and sure enough they call my name but they said elder Heywood is gonna speak. jaja I was gonna try to make a joke about me being a Hermana but then I was like better not ruin that spirit so I didn't! But yeah, me and Edwards were called on to speak from our district so that was just great! I have now officially given a talk in Spanish! It was okay just simple and a lot of bearing my testimony since I can speak easily in the present tense. Also I see why people say to make it till Sunday because the spirit is so dang strong. It was awesome to have conference and all but having Sunday meetings here was so great! 

  

     In relief society we had an amazing lesson about the talk given by the french guy in conference and the talk about learning the dance but not listening to the music... sorry I forgot who gave those but anyways we talked about them and it was so good. And at the end Sis. Call showed us a  clip of mo tab singing with some guy the song from price of Egypt "Look at your life through heaven´s eyes". It  was so good and reminded me of the boys singing that when we watch that movie. You should look up the video its good and since we can't listen to music in the CCM we were just happy to hear someone singing besides the tone deaf sisters in the room next to us. Sunday is also movie night and we watched The Testaments! Beck and I were quoting it and it was just a good time!

   Also you know how i told you about Hm. Turners laugh well..... it is absolutely the funniest thing in the world. Our district is pretty loud so at breakfast, lunch, dinner you name it we make her laugh and everyone in the comedor just dies laughing or thinks someone is literally dying because her laugh sounds like a dying goat or something. I will try to take a video of it and send it to you guys. It´s the best thing ever!!! Also I can't fail to mention the AMAZING MANGOS we have in the comedor. They are so good! Don´t worry madre, Beck and I are still keepin up on our salad game. I also had to try to shrink one of my skirts today because it was too big, I could have done an infomercial with that thing! Also one of our fav lation amigos left Elder Chavero we were teaching him some English and it was so cute he left our districts notes before he left. So presh! It´s funny in all our pics we tower over the Latinos, especially Beck because she is like 5 10". But life here is so good and it sounds like things back in AZ are great. 

Way to go Gilbert volleyball on winning those games! I love you guys all so much and I miss you but I know that what I am doing here is the work of God and I just can´t wait till I can hold my own in Spanish and I am out in the field. I also think I told you about my teachers last week but I love them! They give the best hugs and are like our mamá´s! Martinez will give us this really good Mexican candy when we are good. It has the chile powder stuff in it and I LOVE IT! I also love this hot sauce stuff they have hear... way better than Tabasco! But i just love Mexico and thanks for the insta pics ma. I love you all!

Also our district has come to love signs and we play it when we get stressed out and just need a break from Spanish! its a good time. Here are some pics as you can tell the CCM is beautiful! I love the purple trees and we love our cute Tiffany blue casa. Also gotta love taking selfies in the tienda with Beck! Story about Elder C he searches everyday for four leaf clovers... he said he found one once and band camp and wants to find another. He is also writing down all 700 something Pokémon in order. We love him he is the freaking best haha makes life so interesting. Well I better go I love you all! I love Mexico and I love this church and gospel with all mi corazon! 

 Peace and blessins ya'll! 

LOVE HERMANA HEYWOOD!
