"Nagalagad tungod kay nagtagad."

Hey, hi! It's been a week full of funny stuff. Let me tell you! 


     First, there was supposed to be a big storm of Tuesday and Wednesday. So school was canceled both days and our investigators thought we were crazy that we wanted to visit them because a storm was "coming". But it never came!! So since school was canceled, a ton of the neighborhood kids followed me and Sister Bradford around for a little bit and were just so fascinated at our skin!! Ohh here's a good one. It's very hard for people to say Sister Bradfords name. Like, very hard. And the other day one of our investigators (Julieta) said the closing prayer of a lesson and mentioned us in the prayer but she said "...Sister Bradpit"!!! Oh man, whatever works. it's all good! So now she's Sister Bradpit!

     Our Thanksgiving was great! I was so blessed to receive a package which had pumpkin pancake mix in it! So that was our festive Thanksgiving breakfast!! :)  

     On Friday night we went to teach the same Julieta, and we have to squeeze through this tiny space between this fence and the house everytime we go anddddd, I tripped and fell through the fence on by butt!!!! Oh boy, It was so loud!!!! All the neighbors and Julieta came over so quick to see what happened and I said "Pasaylo!!! Nagdug-pa ko!!!" (Sorry, I tripped!) and they all laughed so hard!!! It's just one of those things that I and them will never forget! I love the Gift of Tongues so much. How amazing is it that I am so many other missionaries have the opportunity to teach, communicate, and laugh with others in their native language so quickly!?? This simply funny accident made me appreciate the Gift of tongues so much more. We all just laughed and enjoyed each other in the moment. I love it here. And I love my calling. 

But hey, Me and the fence are just fine! There's just a big dent in the fence now! hahah ( I've attached picture!)

Ohh and I bought some fake Gucci house slippers for 150 pesos (3 dollars) today, so that was hype hahah!

Stay tuned for some good news next week!!
