Moctezuma - Holla to my man "Nacho"

Dear Fam, 

    Guess what Nacho got baptized por fin! He quit smoking for the whole week and was able to get dunked yesterday.... ah man we were so dang happy for that man! Also his niece got baptized because she just turned eight and has been going to church...but we didn't work with her because her family is menos activias so she was interviewed by Bishop and her cousin Set taught her the lessons. So yes, Nacho Libre got baptized and it was just a good day and he was so so so happy. We can really tell the difference in his and Almas lives now that they keep the commandments because they are just so much happier. So yay, next year on the 26th of July of 2016, I will send you a pic of me, Nacho y Alma at the temple when they get sealed!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Hnas Heywood & Rhoten, Alma & Nacho

 

Us with Andrea (Nacho's niece)

 The rest of the week was good too. We went to the CV with R, Hna. Guadalupe or as we call her granmda guada and our mission leader Ricardo. The pic I sent you from the cv with R (not mission leader) who sometimes is scary looking and ALWAYS wear his hat and shades but every once in a while he takes of his shades to put on his glasses to read but yeah that's R. His baptism was suppose to be yesterday but he was like, "Hna´s no I am not getting baptized, I think people in the church sell drugs and are in the mafia."  His prayers are so so so good though and he does his homework and always reads in the book of Mormon so yeah we will see what is up with this man....oh also he doesn't want anyone at his baptism because he is afraid his neighbors will show up because he thinks they want to kill him....so its a bit difficult! hahah we will see. 

Centro para Visitantes del Templo de la Ciudad de México 

Honey

  Also this week we stared teaching a lady named Maricela and she is so so so so good. She just moved here to take care of her uncle because her Grandma came to her in a dream to do so....and guess what her Grandma was Mormon! She was talking to us how she doesn't know why she is here because she liked her town better than the city....anyways it was perfect and we were talking to her about how everything has a purpose in life and yeah she is awesome. She also gave us a ton of honey that she brought from her town because a guy makes it there and it is really good....so she gave us some...but it is in massive liquor bottles hahah so we were walking down the street with massive liquor bottles full of honey!

  Also Angela went to EFY and loved it!!! But she still doesn't want to get baptized because it is hard for her because nobody in her family supports it and they all don't really like the church....minus Valentin her uncle that is a member! So we are gonna keep on working with her family...and one of her aunts actually just started listening to the lessons with her family so hopefully that will be good for her! 

Making cookies with Alisson and Frida

   Today we went to the market that has like authentic Mexican stuff to buy such as Mexican dresses and I got a yellow one! Mom the market is something you would love.... so when we come back we can go there and you can buy all the nativities and Mexican tile you want! It was pretty cool but sorry I didn't really take pictures of it, nor my dress but hna. Rrhoten and I will take some and I will send them next week! Also today we made cookies with Alisson and her cousin Frida...chocolate chip....but we had some complications with the oven and the altitude so they weren't the prettiest and were burnt on the bottom but they were still good! I think both of those girls will serve missions they were asking a ton of questions about it and they would be awesome! But yeah life her in Mexico is good and the work is progressing and we still don't know a ton about the open house but ya know its in two weeks so I will find out some time between now and then. Also we are trying to convince president to let Hna. Rhoten stay in a trio with me and my hija for two weeks because she is only extending two weeks and we have three beds.... so we will see! I am sure I will have a ton to write about next week. P-day is not till Wednesday so yeah I wont be writing till then. But I love you all so much and I hope you are all safe and having a fun summer. 

  FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS A MI SOBRINO SETH! LO QUIERO MUCHÍSIMO! Also I can't believe Katie is having a baby soon, haha we are both pregnant! but I am due next Monday.... and yeah i don't know how to spell prego... but mom if you haven't sent that package yet perfecto because you should print out more pictures of our family and put them in it. Like a picture from my baptism, a pic from dance, cheer pic with Kuresa, pictures of the lake or our family hiking, more pictures of the family from when I was little till  now. a picture of the Gilbert temple, picture from the Gilbert temple celebration, skydiving pic, us maybe at conference or something, the day I took out my endowments, pictures from when I got set apart as a missionary and yeah just more more more pictures to put in my family history pamphlet because its really expensive and complicated to do it here! But if you could do that I would love you even more...if that is possible I already love you a lot but yes love you madre and family...Aaron thank you for the advice and Seth I loved your letter.....also LUKE can you pretty please send me the poem you read at your homecoming talk? Well I better go but I love you all!
