North Carolina Week 6

Hey there!!

So this week was pretty uneventful. Nothing to amazing or funny really happened except for the greatest party that I have ever gone to in my entire life. It was call Noche de Naciones, or Festival de las Naciones, and it was just a huge group of people that all had their own table for each country and brought food from their country and it was really fun. Mexico went hard. They had so much stuff, it was hilarious. They even bought a Mariachi Band!!! But the coolest was the dancers. They were so fun to watch. After the party we offered to give the Gate City Elders a ride cause they biked there. So we walked out and were met with a roar of rain. It was just pouring. We booked it to the car and tried to get the rack on, I was the only one with a jacket, but didnt realize I had one until I was already pretty wet. That was epic trying to get that all hooked up. 

All of these pictures are from a huge party our Stake threw called festival de las naciones. And it was amazing. So fun. The guy holding the guitar is a member in my ward and he is literally the greatest member ever!! Brother Garcia is amazing. He is always looking to help people and will do anything for anyone. The dancers were amazing and just so cool to watch. Then they pulled out machetes and went crazy. It was fun to watch em. Then the last one is Elder Flores, love that kid, so cool, Elder Briggs(my companion), and Elder Haskell(our district leader). The whole night was a blast till we had to give the other Elders a lift home. We had to put their bikes on our rack while it was absolutely pouring rain. My tie was silk, and is now destroyed haha sad days. But all is well. 

But everything is going good. There really isn't much to tell about. Oh on exchanges (we had to blitz our area) we climbed in our attic, and as i was walking around something hit my back and i just screamed. it scared me soooo bad. then not even ten seconds later Elder Flores did the same thing. It was hilarious. I woulda had it on video but my camera died, sad day. 

I really feel bad that I have nothing to talk about. I will try hard this week to make something amazing happen!! 

Well thats all I got for this week. 

Love you all! thanks for your prayers

Love
