Drumroll please...



Hola everyone!

So, transfer news...

I'm leaving! 

And I'm going all the way up to Santa Fe, New Mexico which is like an hour above Albuquerque! I'll be in a trio with Hermana Openshaw (Hermana Gonniscio's, my last companion before I left, greenie) and Hermana Thompson who is a sister down here in El Paso so we'll have the whole ride up together to talk! 

​The beginning of the goodbye pics! Karem is leaving for her mission on Wednesday so it was a Sunday of goodbyes for both of us!
 I'm sad to be leaving Ascarate, this is all I've known since I've been back on my mission and it has truly become a home for me, but I had a wonderful 7 1/2 months here and I'm ready to move on to my next area!

​With our ward mission leader! Elder Calvillo is getting transferred as well
​Hermana Bosch and Hermana Bigley (both served here in Ascarate) crashed our pics!
​Enrique!
​And the Familia Diaz! Karen (the oldest, in the middle) should be getting her mission call any day now and she came out to help us all the time!
 So these past few days have been a lot of goodbyes and there's still lots more to come today, and then they'll drive me up Tuesday afternoon to Santa Fe.

This past week, before all of that, was good! We found two really promising new investigators and Hermana Smurthwaite and her new companion have a great transfer ahead of them! I'm excited to get updates on all of them!

Oh and last week for p-day we went to the Fort Bliss military post and went bowling! It was my first time over on any sort of military post or base or anything and it was like a whole different world! And I lost pretty badly at bowling, even though I used bumpers. But it was a really cool experience!

Have a great week everyone!
