She's gonna play flute and me SING AAAHHHHHH!!! that was singing not screaming...haha and so it's gonna be good!

Getting settled in Fajardo
Yes I'm alive and well!!! I love it here! I'm back and I'm gonna kick butt!! Yes hna Warwood and Fajardo. It's great. People have been tellin me that I have great Spanish...really that's not my problem...it's hearing what there saying sometimes is what gets me. But it's great here I love it!
Gators we have a few... Sunny and Rosa who live next door and sis Warwood said that they truly felt the spirit when they first taught them.
I love it here...and tu sabe que...alot of people speak English..hahaha I LOVE teaching in both.
It felt weird to start contacting in Spanish again, but really a piece of my heart was left here when I went to the islands and now it's back but now a piece is in Barbados...funny how that works.

Gators: We have Stacey Brown and she's cute she has a Bautizmo date for the 6th of dec. ROCK ON!! She told us she'd been lookin for the true church (in my mind i'm thinking YOU FOUND US!!) haha i know i'm funny! Steven Carmichael we tried to reset a date with him and he said he wants to wait til he gets back from Ghana. I was a lil' hurt when I tried to ask him sunday night for a date on the 28th of nov and was knocked down. Oh well I hope i'm here to see that happen if not I know other sisters can do the work and pick up my slack. Alex is doing good. as of last night we've taught him everything. He wants to quit smoking before he's baptized...giving. but he's doing great..just needs a lil' help with prayers.
love you, hermana B

Ward Halloween party '09
All other days I look like this...Gators, still got about 3 maybe 4 good ones Alex, Steven, Natasha. Alex just needs to read and pray more but he's 19 and doing well. AWESOME!! Natasha last week she was like"you know something we don't do" (and in my mind I'm thinking umm, we pray sing and give lesson, testify...what) she said " when we pray we don't kneel down, so after the lesson were gonna go in the living room and kneel down and pray and I'M gonna say it!!" Wow talk about progress she's teaching us how to do the work!! I love it! And Steven is progressing. I love it!!! Love the work!!!
About your lesson: (sunday school lesson this week on member-missionary work) Tell them to not be afraid: the Lord is on our side, we (as missionaries) might have the planks but really the downlow is with the members when THEY help out and when THEY invite and when THEY testify. Really all we're doing as missionaries is teaching the lessons that they need to be baptized, other then that it's ALOT stronger when members pull their weight!! Like it says in preach my gospel "they don't know where to find it" members really are the best key to converts, gators and missionary work!! Just like the slogan of our late prophet "DO IT"!!
Love hermana B
