When you see your best friend in the mission and cry tears of joy. 
My bff in the mission, look how different our skin tones are hahah

After 4 months of waiting for this package....finally got it :) #costaricaprobs

HELLOOOOO my favorites. 

How is everyone?? I am just a little sunburned, tired, excited missionary here in Costa Rica.:) 

So first, I have to tell everyone that I am no longer a gringa, because this week I GOT MY ID CARD for COSTA RICA! So I am officially Tica for this year until December :) So now I tell everyone that I know that I am now Tica :) 

While we were in San Jose, I saw my beloved Hermana Carrillo #blessed. When she saw me, she literally RAN and tackled me. It was quite the experience :) I will send a picture of us. She is literally my bff here in the mission :))) It is quite a beautiful thing in the mission that we are able to have and develop such strong relationships! 

So being a mom is HARD! I may or may not have had a little breakdown this week, BUT luckily we have such incredible leaders (STLS) that help me SO MUCH! :) I am so grateful for the power of prayer, the Atonement, and leadership this week, and always. 

Sooo this pday was literally sick. We went to African Safari, it's like a petting zoo but on steroids! I am gonna send a BUNCH of pictures, because I took a million. It was SICK. We rode in a huge ATV around a Zoo and fed the animals :) It was literally the happiest thing. I enjoyed every second. It was also FREE because the stake pres pays for the missionaries to go every 4 months. HECK YEAH :) We also ate a really fancy lunch, which was a #bonus. 

I am happy, but this is hard. I know that the mission is gonna be hard. I know that I can't do this without the Atonement :) I am trying harder each day to be better!! 

I love you all! And fyi...I get cards every 3 weeks, so if you have an urge to send me one I wouldn't be mad :)
