¡Hola mia familia!
¿Como estáis? Espero que todo esta bien por vosotros. Todo aqui es genial. Super guay, realamente. (guay is cool) Ammon, fetch dude. Your hair is insane! I´m going to need some pictures from the show, it sounds awesome! I heard from a little birdie that Skyler´s hair is pretty short right now too. I need a picture of that too. Oh and you can definitely send me pictures, I love to have them. I´m not sure if I´m going to send pictures right now or later, but I will send them today. The place we do email is closing in about half an hour so we´ll see if I have time. I might not even be able to finish my email, but I´ll send what I have before we have to leave. It sounds like you all have had an exciting week. It sounds like the temple was awesome! And you got to see Amaya and Maddy and everyone else in Provo! Sounds like a powerful experience. The temple is one thing that I´ve been missing quite a bit. But no biggie. I´ll get to go a ton when I get back. If Madrid was in our mission we could probably go once every 6 months or something, but since it´s not we don´t get to go at all. But no big deal, I just want to get other people there. Hey so it sounds like all the Flint´s got haircuts this week, because I did too. So funny story with that. We asked a member if she could cut my hair and she said of course, so we had a cita set up with her for the morning, but had to change it for an investigator. So we pushed it back without thinking about the fact that we had to catch a bus an hour later. So I ended up with about half a haircut. It was pretty bad. Like longer on the top and not even on the sides. She said we could come back and touch it up later but we had a zone conference the next day and presidente Deere was coming so I wanted to be looking good, ya dig? So anyways I took E. Butler´s clippers to try and cut just a little on the front and sides and as I did so, I took a big chunk out of the front. Oops. So I ended up just buzzing the top of my head. Not super short, but fairly short. Not really any shorter than it was in the MTC though. I talked to the member and church and she understood, but it was an interesting experience. Not quite as cool as Ammon´s hair though. I´m not sure if Presidente would approve if my hair was like that though. So this week has been full of ups and downs. Downs were that we only had 13 lessons this week. Pretty weak. We could use the excuse of a surprise trip to Málaga that took up two days, but that´s weak too. We just had a lot fall through. So that was kinda a bummer. But on Sunday we had 32 people in church! 32! For you that probably sounds like nothing but for us, it´s awesome. And out of those 32 people 7 were investigators! So sunday was awesome. And the other big up was a boy named Martinus. He is the super tall one in the picutre of us playing futbol. He´s from Holland and he´s awesome, but in the past he has been pretty iffy with our teaching. Like he listens but he always says he´s not sure about it yet and not ready to be baptized. But this week, out of nowhere, but made a complete 360. He really wants to be baptized now and is always talking about followed the camino recto. He came to church and we had a cita with him and the Romanitos last night and he said he wants to come every week from now on. He also asked us all the things he needs to follow to be baptized. So awesome! I´m super excited for him. So to answer your question dad, we work a ton with the ward too. We try to rescue less actives and help the active members too. We are also always trying to find and teach new people. We do a lot of street contacting and quite a bit of tocando puertos also. I love it. It´s hard, super hard sometimes. We are always walking. I´ve been wondering how much I walk in one day. I need a pedometer or something :) But it is definitely worth it in the end. I love missionary work! So I´m not sure how much more I´m going to be able to write right now, but I think I´ll have a little longer later. But just to answer some questions. Yes the food here is good. They don´t have a lot of the same things. That´s why I asked for recipes. They don´t have boxes of brownies or anything like that. I don´t think they even have cream of chicken soup :/ But if you can think of anything that comes from super simple ingredients that´s what I need. We have access to the most simple things. Like sugar and flour and stuff like that. We also have cocoa powder and stuff. Well gotta go. Love you!"
