wearing Dominican Tuvis that a member gave to us |
This week's been pretty fun. We haven't done all that much finding because I've been showing the area around to my new companion Elder Judd so he can meet everyone. He seems like a super cool guy. He's from the south side of Washington, and is super into cars. Matter of fact, I've only been with him for about a week now, but I already feel like an expert on cars just cause we've talked about them so much. He's loving Puerto Rico so far though. He was out here for about three months before the hurricane hit, but had been in Utah ever since. He says he missed Puerto Rico so much. I'm super excited to be able to work with him.

Right now though, Puerto Rico is getting ready for the holidays. I really hope I stay out here in San Juan for Christmas because I heard they go crazy out here. Everyone's already started putting up lights, and the malls and stores are already decked out with Christmas decorations. The only thing different is it's still like 90 degrees out here. The funny thing is people still drink hot chocolate. We'll be sitting outside already sweating, and people will give us hot chocolate, end we end up just dripping in sweat it gets so hot. Halloween was pretty fun as well. We went to get some free ice cream from 31 flavors, and then we had to come back to the house early. So we headed back and set some decorations up. Then we just played a bunch of Brisca and Dominoes with the other Elders while stuffing ourselves with candy to finish off the night.
As far as people we've been teaching recently, we found an awesome family about two weeks ago. We've been working with them a lot recently, and they are THE BEST. The mom listens to everything we say, and loves learning. They love when we come by, and we plan on inviting them to be baptized tonight so we'll see how that goes. Everyone else seems to be doing awesome as well. I absolutely love teaching the people out here.
