i am loving it here so much!!
 its been kinda the same week as last week nothing really exciting has happened.
I love the people in my district so much they are so funny. 
we eat every meal together and i can’t breath every meal because i am laughing so hard they are so funny. 
it is freezing here !!  I was telling sav how cold it is but, i sleep with 5 blankets, a tee shirt ,  a sweater , two pairs of socks and sweats and i am still cold.
 when we wake up there is so much frost, they other day it was 5 degrees Celsius. 
also here there is so much smog, sometimes we cant even see the mountains it is insane  how poluted this city is. 
we  usually cant see the moon very well, and we see about 1 star. but yesterday there was like no smog and we could see how beautiful the city was and at night we could actually see some stars and the moon,it was so pretty. 
i am learning spanish pretty good, i know so much more than i did when we first got here. me and my companion are now teaching lessons in spanish using very few english words and we dont have any notes in front of us. the gift of tongues is so real. 
something way cool that happened was all the sister in my district had our elders give us blessings, and it was such a cool experience and when the elder was giving me mine i had a feeling that gage was so proud of me and my choice and willingness to serve a mission .so that was a really cool experience. that was on friday last week.
i wake up at 6.30 i have breakfast at 7 . then i have class all day until 12:30 when its lunch . then i have gym until 3 then i have class until 6:45 it is a really long day! and then we have study time . we go to our house at 9 and then we go to bed at 10:30 pm so it is a wayyyyy long day.
remember how i told you that everyone here writes a talk and then they just call up whoever to give it for sacrament meeting. i got called up, so i gave a talk in spanish this week in sacrament meeting so that was fun. it was on our purpose here on earth. 
i have been learning a lot, about the scriptures and about the culture and spanish. it is really exhausting sometimes. 
we get gym everyday for about 1 1/2 hours so i play volleyball for a mintue its sand volleyball, and then i lay in the sun, thats like my favorite part of the day it is so nice. 
the sister from haiti is going to be leaving soon. She only gets to stay a short time because she is not learning a new language.its so crazy that she has almost  been here for 3 weeks. there is a sister that came this week she is from florida and she speaks both English and Haiti because here parents are from haiti. but it is so cazy because this sister from flordia her whole family disowned her when she came on her mission so she lay has no family any more none of them will talk to her. 

i will be calling you on christmas day at 9.30 mexico time!!!!!
i dont get to face time its just a phone call, but we are lucky bc the provo mtc gets nothing bc there are to many. and were lucky we get to call at least.
