Hermana Jenny Hadlock : Hola!! :)

Hola Familia!!

Okay, so I finally have a minute to write back :) I have about fifteen minutes. So I will get as much out as possible. I don't have everyone's emails so I think every week I am just going to send one e-mail to mama and papa and then you guys can forward it to everyone.

Okay, so about the mission.... I AM DOING GREAT!!! The worst day I've had so far was Saturday. Surprising huh?? But I guess it's not uncommon for missionaries here to have a bad day their first Saturday. I haven't really been crying except for that day. Although I miss everyone, I am kept so STINKIN BUSY here!! So I don't really have a lot of time to be sad. My Spanish is coming along great :) It's really hard because there is still so much to learn. My second day here we were already teaching Javier who only speaks Spanish. Nuts huh?? But the gift of tongues is real. I have been able to understand more in Spanish and speak more than I ever have before in my life!!!! This last week was great. Honestly, it seems like a month. I was able to attend the temple this morning and that was awesome. The temple food is SO good! We get fed pretty good here :) And yes, THE CHOCOLATE milk is so good!! Es muy bueno :) We have devotional Tuesday nights and it was awesome last night. Me and my whole district actually decided to sing in the choir. It was a really cool experience and I was so happy to sing again.

My companion is seriously amazing. She loves sports and loves to laugh so we have tons of fun together! I really love her already. She is going to Dallas Spanish speaking as well. Dad and Mom, I got both of your e-mails. For now, the best thing for me is probably Dear Elder. I get those every single day and I only get a little time on P-day (Wednesday) to check my e-mail. So if you guys want, please Dear Elder me and then I will either e-mail you back or I will write you back. Once I get out in the field, I'll have you start e-mailing again. If you do want to e-mail feel free but while I am here in the MTC I would prefer Dear Elders. Just go to DearElder.com and it's pretty easy to send me one from there. Heather, please post on my facebook for my friends to dearelder me :) Gracias!!!

I am glad to hear things are going well at home. I pray for all of you all the time. Hmm, what else is going on here?? Tons. I'm trying to think of everything. All of the new missionaries are coming in today and it's so weird being on the other side of it. It's so scary and nerve wracking on their side but just a week later I am already settled in here at the MTC. I really do love it here. The spirit is so strong and I am learning so much. The people in my district are way fun!! I love them all. Even if we are a little crazy sometimes. They say to work hard but to have fun on the mission as well. I think I'll bare my testimony to you in the spanish that I have learned. A lot of it is probably wrong... but that's okay :)

Yo se que la iglesia de Jesu Cristo es la verdadero. Yo se que Jose Smith y Thomas S. Monson es profetas verdad. Yo se que el libro de mormon es verdadero. Yo es muy aggraciedo por el Evangelio. En el nombre de Jesu Cristo, Amen.

I love all of you!!!!!!! I am going to answer a few personal e-mails and try to get a few more letters off answering e-mails today. I love you and miss you all!!!!!!!!! Hopefully next week when I have a little more time I'll be able to write more once I have things more figured out. Oh yeah, I spend almost all of my days studying, teaching, studying, eating, and yeah... that's about it ;) I love it! Thank you for the prayers. You guys are great!
