Also, there were these sinks full of fish heads behind us.
So there´s that.

La casa nueva! (This is for you mom!)

La cocina

So STOKED to have a shower I´m not terrified to shower in.
The shower in our old house was like from a Horror movie.
No chiste.

(The coldest, windiest, rainiest) Divisions in Miramar! 
I had one with Hermana Jensen like this but trust me it was not cute. 

(the black dog on the right follows Hermana Nomellini and I on our runs every morning)

This isn´t cute either.
But Hermana Jensen brought wax and so we waxed each other´s eyebrows and noses for fun


Elder Schiess kills me

Saying by to Hermana Child

NOW

THIS
is an Alfahore. You know those things I can´t stop talking about?
Yeeep. These are dangerous.
Sarah Marie Waters and Abigail Stanworth, come down to Argentina and get these! You would love them! 

When You Least Expect It
So last week I didn´t have time to write a group email so I´m not sure if my Mom has spread the word around yet or not but I had my very first baptism!
We had a cita with Julia on wednesday and we knew something happened right off. She seemed really down and told us that her operation was being delayed so we would have to wait longer for her to be baptized. 
Ugh.
And then Hermana Nomellini said, "well why not get baptized before your surgery?"
And then Julia was like NO
And then we were like "Why not?"
And then she was like "Mhmmm okay this Sunday lol."
And we were like "WHAAT"
So yeah we planned an entire baptism in less than a week haha.
The whole thing was just unexpected, but I´m learning that the best things in life, even the things you are expecting to happen, happen when you least expect it to happen.
You can quote me on that ha.

The baptism was beautiful. There was such a special spirit there that I had never felt before at a baptism.
Julia is seriously the best. Strongest and Sassiest person I know.
Love her to bits and pieces.

Narea, Julia´s daughter.
(Narea is the reason Julia started talking to the missionaries in the first place! She is gold!)

This cute man is Cirilo, Julia´s dad.
He wants to be baptized too, but we have to wait.
Pray that he can get baptized before Hermana Nomellini leaves Miramar next transfer!
