2/17/10

Hey!!! Hope everyone had a great Valentines!!! Ours was good, we went to church and taught a lesson with Melanie. She has had a crazy life and has come to the point that she wants to change! So things are going well, there are always up and downs but it's good. We're teaching Veronica Oregel and hopefully soon her two older children who are 9 and 13. They went to church last Sunday and I think it went well. She asked a lot of questions and participated in class. Yesterday we were hoping to teach her but we couldn't get a hold of her, so hopefully we will teach her soon. As far as those we are teaching, (Maria and Jose Luis Villasenor, Mayra y Serafin, Olga and Albert, Mario Landeros, and a few others that seem to come and go =-) they're awesome and we love them. We pray that they will continue to progress =-)

The weather has been so nice. Usually it's about 50 to 60ish degrees but the last few days it's almost gotten up to 70 degrees. I'm excited for summer! There's been a lot of fog lately, and from what I hear more to come, but it burns off by the afternoon. Since a got here in Watsonville, about 2 1/2 months ago, it has rained at least once a week and we've had some pretty big storms which I've loved but lately it hasn't rained and we probably won't get much of any rain until next winter, bummer I love the rain but it's been really pretty the last few days so it's all good. Oh, we moved into a new apartment! The last one started falling apart the last 2 weeks haha and then they told us they found a new place for us. Perfect timing right?! ha and now the poor Elders are moving into our old apartment which is falling apart, poor Elders ha. So it was kind of funny, we woke up and the carpet in the hall was sopping wet, we looked in the bathroom and the bathroom was leaking from the ceiling! The paint on the wall was feeling up with pockets of water ha it looked really weird. So they ended up coming to fix it. I guess a pipe broke and so they cut a huge hole in the ceiling and are still working on fixing it. Hopefully they finish before the Elders move in ha. So that happened and some other stuff, those poor Elders. We, on the other hand, moved into a really really nice condo! Who new that on my mission we'd live in such a nice place ha. It's only a few years old and we get our own washer and dryer, well at least some time if they can get some donated, I sure hope! Also right now we don't have a full sized fridge, just a little miniture one ha. It looks funny having it in the place of where there's supposed to be a big fridge. Anyway things are going good. We're contacting muchisimo and hopefully soon we will be lead to more of those who are ready to accept the gospel! I love you guys and hope all is well!!!!!!!!!!

Love,

Hermana Alvey =-)
