Yep yep everything is good here. I've seen Jimmy a few times and its pretty fun with all the missionaries. They're all great. Last week we had our first Pday and I have some sweet pictures for ya'll to look at. haha o and last week I forgot to tell you one thing. TRaffic here is crazy!!!!!! the people drive like maniacs! here in Jinotega there are no stoplights only stop signs. Cars pass eachother on tiny narrow streets and motorcycles drive crazy!(tons of moto´s cause they are cheap)

This past weekend was awesome! We had two baptisms and I did one of them! It was cool doing it in spanish. The great thing was that both of them were kinda suprises for us. The lttle old man (viejito) Sebastian was supposed to leave for the mountains to work and cut coffee but he ended up staying for one more week to have a doctors appointment. We were able to baptise him with that little extra time! We found out that he isn't a pair (pareja) with the lady we thought was his wife. That means we didn't have to get him married before the baptism and all that!

The other baptism was a mujer named Damaris. Two weeks ago we had commited her to baptism and the interview was made and all was set to go. We filled the font and everything and then the night before she had a lot of doubts and didn't want to be baptized. We gave her some time to think about it and we went back last Thursday and talked with her. That morning I had been thinking about her and how we could help her. When we went to her house my companion had me do the lesson and share the scriptures I had in mind. It was pretty suprising to me that he did that but it went super super well. The spirit was there and after I talked with her Elder Millian asked her what she thought she needed to do next. She replied voy a bautizarme (I go to baptize myself). I was shocked because I really didn't say very much to her but the spirit carried the message to her heart 1ne 31:1 (i think lol) I really do have a testimony that the spirit will bring to mouth the things you need to say in the very moment it is needed, and that the spirit uses the knowledge that you have from studying during personal and companion study. The same day those things are brought to mind. I know this work is the work of the Lord and there is no doubt in my mind of the great importance of it in His eyes.

Well, hope all is well up there! PS we need to set up a day and a time for our phone call this month! When is good for yall?? When are the kids all out of school and dad off work so we can call?
