Holaaaaa!! Mon: chilled and packed suitcases. Went to The Gran Buffalo as a district for dinner and it was tastyyyy. We have been going there every monday before transfers. Had FHE with a fam and started saying goodbye to the members here.  Tues: absolutely crazy day!! Since both my companion and I are leaving The Victoria, we said goodbye to all our investigators and members. It was so sad and fun saying goodbye to all the friends we made. We ate dinner with the Alva fam and after we had second dinner with the Pretel Fam...the exact same food haha but it was yummy Wed: said a few more goodbyes in the morning and left to my new area :((( I went from a poor to wealthy area.

Buenos diasssss!!! Here's a lil update :) Mon: Went to President and Sister Hiatts house for district P-Day!! We made waffles and french toast...soooo good! The peruanas have never had french toast before so they were pretty excited. I was too not gonna lie :) We also played some games with President and his wife.  Tues: Zone conference with President and Sister Hiatt! Super good as always, learned lots, and felt the spirit. We need to first have our own testimony of the gospel to share it with others. We can't just know about the gospel but we need to feel the blessings and feel the peace and joy that comes from the Savior for ourselves first in order to share it with ohers. We had exchanges and I went to Jerusalén with Sister Edwards. Super fun and learned lots. Wed: Ended our exchanges and had district council!! Taught some people. Taught English woo hoo!!

Hey hey hey!! I hope yall had an amazing Christmas and New Year! I haven't written in email in a while so here are a few highlights from the past few weeks: •went to Presidents house as a zone for a Christmas lunch...boujee...the nicest house I've been in Peru. We had lunch, sang Christmas songs, had a talent show, and read some scriptures about the Savior  •no one loves us so on Christmas eve and Christmas and didnt have any appointments. Hehe jokes. Buy seriously missionary work is hard during the holidays. We didnt have any lessons on Christmas eve but we visited a TON of people. Super fun!! •Peru knows how to have a party for christmas and New Years...literally got no sleep Christmas eve and new years eve. In Peru they stay up super late and light fireworks ALL NIGHT LONG!! They also burn dummies on new years eve, kinda interesting :) •I hit 6 months in the mission WHATTTT so crazy. It went by so fast. I've had 6 months in the same area and I have developed good friends...
