First Email - July 24, 2013


I made it to Spain!! I just have a few minutes today to let you know that I made it safely and that I am doing well! I couldn´t be happier to be here, it is such an amazing country. The flight went well, I sat by my new friend Hermana Heaton, we had a good twelve hours to talk to each other and get to know each other better. She reminds me of Kenzie, at times I thought I was talking to her! We arrived at the Madrid airport around 9 this morning, now we have a full day ahead of us! There is nothing like being thrown into a new country where you don´t speak ANY Spanish.... Yeah I have a lot to learn these next few weeks...:) I have a lot of respect for Elder Calhoun on the Best Two Years... that is me! My companion is Elder Schmidtlein from South Dakota. We have 8 elders in our room, so it is a good time. We are pretty busy the rest of the day. I am pretty tired right now, and I am laughing at everything my companion says. I am in for a ride, but the best ride of my life! Today was such a good day, I am doing well! This CCM is beautiful, I am so excited to be here! I miss you guys, but I am so happy here, and ready to get to work!
