Christmas Party Hermanas!!! 

Me and my amazing companion Hna Carmack!

Christmas lights in La Zanja!!! Oh how I'm going to miss this place!!! 

ok story: so we we're just parking in a normal every day shopping center parking lot and there was this HUGE chicken!! So mind you, I was pretty sick this day (hence why I look super ridiculous ly horrible because I had been sneezing and coughing and my contact caused my tear ducts to explode hahaha) and my brain wasn't really functioning completely normally (actually not the reason because I think this is something I'd do on any normal day hahah) and I decided to get as close to it as possible!!! So I get this close (photo creds: hna Carmack) and....IT TURNS ON MY AND PUFFS OUT ITS CHEST AND RUNS AT ME AND WAS MAKING SCARY NOISES!!! All I could do was run and wave my arms and scream!! (Hna Carmack is awesome and was on her way to fight of the attacking chicken and didn't get a shot of the assault) So basically I was attacked by an angry chicken in the middle of a parking lot in Southern CA! hahha 

I love my mission so much and I'm so happy that I get to have so many fun adventures like these!!! So I found out I'm being transferred and I'm really sad to leave San Juan and Hna Carmack but I know that Heavenly Father has an individual and perfect plan for each and every one of us!! President Orgill (the president of my mission) explained to us the other day that every experience we have in this life is specially and lovingly designed by our Heavenly Father for us to be happy! So its best we just try to enjoy the journey and find the ways that we can be happy and grow in every moment of our lives! 

I love you all sooooo much!!! I'm so thankful that I have an amazing family and amazing friends who support me and love me!!! I hope you all have an amazing week and remember that during this time of year we celebrate the fact that a Savior was born so that we may live happily in this life and happily in the life after!! :)
