HOPPY NU YERR

Today is a lot, lot, lot hotter than Christmas was, so I feel like the parties will be a lot more intense. I just hope I get to see lots of fireworks again tonight.
Can I just say how dang fast this year has gone by? All of 2011 I have been a missionary. That is crazy. When I was making goals for this year, I realized they have to be for like real life stuff. Whaaaaa....It's all happening just too stinkin dang fast.
We had tons of success this week. I just think the spirit of Christmas helped a lot, and my comp and i had a lot more faith and so we have been finding amazingly prepared people. Last night Miguels sister, Silvina, said these exact words "after hearing your testimony, and sitting in on all of these discussions with you guys, i too know that this is the true church of Jesus Christ" i was SOOO happy when i heard her say that! The only problem is that she is living with a guy she isn't married to, and that she lives in Merlo, San Luis, 6 hours away from here, and the closest chapel is an hour away and I'm not sure there are missionaries are in her area. I think she is in Karissa´s mission. Just send her there! It's a for sure baptism.
AHHH I also got the BEST news this morning! So at the Christmas conference, i talked to one elder who is in my old area in San Nicolás, where Susanna and Diego live. I told him how much i loved that family and how he needs to go keep teaching them. I got my missionary nametag and signed the back and gave it to him to give to them for Christmas (i have more, don't worry)
He did, and they all came to church, and right after church called me and thanked me and told he how much they loved the plack. I was SOOO happy to hear their voices, and they told me that they are going to come and visit me some Sunday here. Today, I got another call from that elder telling me that they had a lesson with her last night, and she is really going to be baptized!!!!!! I'm trying to make plans right now to see if there is any way I can make it to that baptism. I love Susanna SOOOO much, and even though she didn't get baptized when I was there, I am so excited she is finally making the step now. I am just giddy thinking about it. Please pray for her (and pray that I can get permission to go to the baptism!)
well, vosotros, que tengáis un año nuevo muy lindo. 2012 is going to ROCK.
