Here I am!



Alrighty!!

Well it has been real... real fun! The MTC was fantastic, but I'm glad to be here in Mexico. I have a terrific companion. She says I speak well. And I actually understand most of what she says. Her name is Hermana Castillo. She is from Mexico, and the most beautiful person I have met!

So I ended up not getting to Mexico until Yesterday. There was a complication with our flight on Monday. Our first flight out to Dallas was delayed which meant we were going to miss our connecting flight to Mexico. So after taking the train from Provo to SLC and with all of our luggage. (A bit of a pain) We found ourselves headed back to the MTC. After saying goodbye to everyone, there we were again. I was fine with it though, I felt like I needed an extra day to let it all soak in, and feel ready to go anyways. And I have so much time riding there and back to attempt to read the BOM in Spanish.


We had to wake up at 2am on Tuesday to be at the travel office at 2:30am. I was the only one of us Sisters to set an alarm clock.. and I accidently set it to 2pm.. Luckily my body just woke up at 2:17, and I didn't need much time to get ready. I was ready to go, before 2:30, and was waiting on the other sisters to finish up their makeup and yah.. Estuvo bien. :D But funny story, we had cleared customs and whatever you go through when you get into another country, and we all Heard an alarm go off.. yah that was mine.

We immediately went to Pres. Wagner's house had dinner?or lunch? not sure which, it was about 3 or 4 before we ate, haha. He is super nice and I had a great interview with him.

We stayed at the mission home last night. This included me, my new comp, Hermana Afu and her comp. I was so happy to still be with Hermana Afu for another night. I'm so bummed that I have to leave her. She is honestly an angel. She has been such a great example to me of every quality I could ever wish to have. I stopped talking a little bit last night because I feared I would ball me eyes out thinking about leaving her. But it's all good, I'm doing great!

 The reason we stayed at the mission home is because there wasn't a bus going to where our mission is. Yes, Hermana Afu and I are part of the same mission!!! Thank goodness. I will be able to see her maybe a little more often.

We are in Sayula, Mexico. It reminds me a little bit of Solala in Guatemala, the structure of the town that is, but the roads probably have an extra meter tacted onto them.

Well, there you have it. I'm here, and praying every second of the day!

Love you all lots! Con mucho amor,
su favorita misionera xoxoxoxo
Hermana Tagg
