Our First Email

Hey mom, I just got time to email today because they let us do laundry on satrudays so we have a small P-day type of thing.  I sent a letter to you yesterday of the past two days while we were here.   My companions name is elder Fleshman and we get along very well.  Today was pretty relaxed we just at some breakfast than as a district we just sat and talked for like an hour or so.  So it has been really good.  Erin was right about the schedule. we eat a ton.... and we study a ton... It is good though I really enjoy being able to study that much and be able to be learning all the time, but eating that much is the hard part, i don't know if I can make it with this much food in me.  But yesterday we had something new come up where we had to teach our first "investigator" all entirely in spanish, which I was kind of prepared for except for the fact that the other elders in our zone were telling us that they only did like five percent spanish so I was thinking we would be able to talk english a bit, but no... when we didn't know the correct spanish words to say we just sat there awkwardly for like five minutes and couldn't get the correct translation of our lesson to him.  It was crazy though, how much spanish we were able to understand after only two days.  I think it is truly a miracle how the spirit is able to do that to us. I love you so much keep praying together for me, I got the package with the chips in it and I am sharing the cookies. Adios. Elder Jacobson
