Family,
SOOO I just read about how Tori is engaged, so I don’t think I can really focus on this email right now. I am just kind of flustered.
So moving back to Costa Rica by chance? eh why does that not surprise me? You have my blessing. I’m down for coming down to Costa Rica, hope this doesn’t affect our trip to Europe however 😉
My week was good. I love to be a missionary. Good things are happening and that is always good to see. Mainly I just see Jose who is active and so happy in the gospel and it helps keep me sane when sometimes I think I’m going to go insane. Since it is spring everyone works everyday all day in the fields. so we have a lot of dead hours where we try a lot of empty houses. However from after dinner until we go home we are way busy. It’s pretty crazy. lovin’ it.
I got tested for strep throat this week. Turns out it was allergies and a nasal infection or some nasty business. Well I’m still quite sick from it (which I think is ridiculous since it’s allergies). They gave me some sick nasty nasal spray that I have to use everyday and I don’t think it is doing anything.. Well I’m hoping that it doesn’t keep up for much longer because I am going to be in the Basin for a lot more time.
I decided I need to work on my OYMs because right now we haven’t been having as many teaching appointments which leaves a lot more time for strolling up to people and OYMing them. I actually really enjoy it, especially when they are super awesome/ super crazy. We definitely had some interesting experiences in Mesa last week, i have never met such a smorgasbord(what?) of interesting people in my life. Also some scary ones.. who were higher than a  kite and drunker than a sunk.
Dad I really like your goatee! Pretty sure that should be there always! (Sorry mom)
Thanks for sending in some music 🙂
In approximately a couple days if someone could update the status of whether or not Tori is getting married, or going on a mission, that would be great.
LOVE YOU ALL,
Sista Hannah Holladay
What is the weather like where you are in the Basin?
It’s hot and then cold like utah and it is always SUPER windy
How is Carmen doing? Maybe she could get one of the members to go with her to a pool and practice.
Carmen we can’t see because she works everyday and has a psycho for a husband, but we call her periodically. I still think she is golden.
I can’t remember the names of your two that you are so sure about. How are they? Are they coming to church and still letting you in for discussions?
Maria and samuel, and ya we still meet with us, they came to conference but haven’t come since then
What was your favorite talk from conference? (or maybe not your favorite, but the one that you remember the most)
ALL OF THEM. No haha I liked Packer’s (always) and Monson and Holland and Nelson’s
What things if any do you find that you wish you had brought and didn’t?
My cream sweater with the little holes, maybe another pair of shoes, and also my plaid skirt. ya.. and my cream pencil but I don’t remember if that one covered my knees while I sat.. hmm
Would you like to have a mini Preach My Gospel in spanish?
nah..
It’s good to read the Updates! matt don’t be so lazy,you’re a future missionary after all. I also forgot to tell you something important! so the people I live with, ya they might be stopping by thursday or friday afternoon. Brother and sister Ririe. They’re awesome, I thought it would be super cool if they met you. They have our address and phone number 🙂 ya! hope that’s cool with you!
