flour eggs and water!!!

Welp this week flew by, I don't have much time to write, so this will be a quick little email, also they changed our p'day to be on Christmas day and new years day, so I prob. wont be emailing next week... but I do plan on printing off my emails, so hey don't think that gives you an excuse not to write!! SO Daniel was baptized on Saturday, it was very special, we didn't have much support from the members, but hey at least he was baptized and he was confirmed on Sunday, and has already received the priesthood, can we talk about how amazing this ward is? I'm so blessed to be here!! We saw I'm after he was given the priesthood, he had a glow about him, and he was truly humbled, I could tell he really understands the importance of these things!! I'm so happy I get to be a part o this part of his life! We are teaching several people, they have baptism goals, pray that they make it, we are teaching a kid who has a really rough life, but luckily a family from the church has taken him in and are helping him a lot, we are planing on his baptism for next sat the
26th, the day after Christmas, and his 14th birthday! Everything looks great for that date, as long as we can get permission from his sister... pray that she will give her permission!!!
Well I gotta run, but I would like to end with our fun little experience yesterday. well we had transfers this week, and everyone thought my comp would be transferred... so there is a family here that we eat with all the time that whenever a missionary gets moved they throw eggs and flour on them, well since we all thought mora would be leaving they planned on doing it to her on Monday our last lunch with them. We both went to lunch wearing old clothes, me just in case they decided to get smart. Well the whole lunch they were teasing her by bringing out the eggs and flour and stuff like that, the mom was like don't worry Hermana they wont do anything today. I thought it was really funny. Well after lunch the oldest son came over and had water in his hand and Hermana Mora tried to hide behind me, I went running and stood by the daughter of the family, at that point my comp was cornered by 2 of the sons and the mom, well they got her poor girl with eggs and water and flour, it was funny, as soon as they covered her with that she ran over to the mom and daughter and hugged them to get them all dirty, because well she cant hug the sons, and then we took pictures, well we put the cameras on self timer and posed for the picture, as soon as the picture took I felt cold water on my head and saw flour flying everywhere... yeah they got me too... just without the eggs!!! It was way funny,
but they waited a little to long so it doesn't really show up in the picture!! Well we tried getting them back by flinging rice (from the lunch) at them, but the oldest son had to go to work so we forgave him for yesterday, but we are coming up with ways to get them back... any ideas would be more than welcome :). So after lunch we had to walk home covered in flour and water and egg everyone was looking and laughing at us... it was really really funny... until we had to get it out of our hair... I thought it would never come out... luckily it did... yeah quite the day!
But it was all done in vain because well we didn't have any changes, but its better this way, we will have fun getting our revenge together!
Welp I gotta run I cant wait to talk to you all next Friday!!

love ya
