Hermana Brittany Haven Hammond: 3rd Letter from Mexico Oct. 10, 2013

Hola my familia!!

Oct.10, 2013
Okay I seriously have the best family ever!!

I loved conference! Oh my goodness, it was the best conference, I have ever listened to. I love our prophets! AHH. they are amazing. annndd, I saw Teri! I got so excited! And bragged about it to everyone! Ha ha, I also looked for you! And I could just imagine you guys sitting there in conference, ah it is so cool, when you hear an apostle, or general authority bless the missionaries, and then you realize... Hey! THAT'S ME! Literally, the coolest thing in the whole world. Our Presidente told us to watch it in english, because this is the prophet giving us counsel, and we need to understand everything he says, and commands! But I must say it was the first time I had watched all of the lessons in a skirt... very different.. but still so good!

Next is, THANK YOU FOR THE DEAR ELDERS! I got yours momma!!!! I AM SO EXCITED THAT I GOT ACCEPTED TO BYU PROVO! AHH That made my whole day! I got 2 from Jared! That little man! I love you so much! I am so glad your reading books, it makes my whole life! And I loved yours mom about your primary program and Jacob watching Family home videos! Ah, so pretty much I have the best family in the world, and my district is super jealous of my awesome mom and family! So, thank you!

I just got back from the temple! And this week was amazing, I literally have never been so spiritually uplifted. From going from conference, and going to the temple, its all just amazing, this place is HEAVEN! I love the MTC! I love this CCM! Ah, I wish I could describe it better you to, but I just can't, words don't do it justice to what I am feeling here. We watched The Testaments on Domingo, and I think you all should go get that movie and watch it this week! It is so inspiring, because it's those people that I am going to teach here!

Another thing that is super cool, is that the Mexico City Temples Moroni is different! He is holding the Golden Plates! Because all of the Book of Mormon is here!! All of the lamanites are here! Waiting for the gospel! Waiting in Chicago! AH, We talk all the time to the beautiful people here, and we tell them we are going to Chicago and they are like... Ah, MUCHOS LATINOS THERE! I am so excited! Even though I don't know the language well, I am so excited!

Ah, cool story! Hna Buys and I were teaching Ulises, and literally we had prepared well, but one little miracle.. we didn't even talk about our lesson! But we opened our mouths and they were filled with words and after our teacher (who is playing Ulises) told us we did excellent, TONS of improvement is needed ha ha, but its so cool to have tiny experiences and miracles happen!

Well, this is a really funny story, but this happened last night, Hna Pearson, (who is hilarious and I love her) Put a scarf on her head, because funny, it gets cold here in Mexico. At 9:30 class was done, I don't know what was so funny but when your in a class room for 12 hours, with the same people crazy stuff happens) Hna Hatch and I started laughing so hard, that I just had a little bit of a laugh attack. Don't worry I am still focused.

Ah, well, coolest thing!! I saw ELDER HARRIS!!! But I haven't gotten the package from him yet, but he is well and happy! I took a picture with him that you NEED to send to TAMMY! Its awesome, well... I miss my family so much, and you all need to learn Spanish because we have to come back to Mexico on VACATION! HA ha but we should probably go somewhere safe also. But I seriously love it here and I am obsessed with being a missionary, and my favorite part about getting ready is putting on my badge, my missionary badge, its the coolest thing ever! Well Time is running out. I love you my family! Thanks for being the best family in DE WHOLE WORLD!

LOVE YOU!

Hna Hammond

YO AMA SER UNA MISIONERA!!!!!

Hurrah for Israel!

PS Spanish, is super hard, but that's how its SUPPOSED TO BE! That's what makes it so amazing! Can't wait til the day when I am fluent!
