Photographs - February 13, 2012

Dear Family and Friends,

Lots of photos this week and not a lot of time. That seems to be how it goes.

The first photo I sent is just of Hermana Hobb´s and me sitting out on our front porch one night eating dinner. All you can see are our faces but I wanted you to get a sense of how incredibly TAN I am getting. This picture captures it and even other people are starting to notice. We visit people sometimes and they tell Hermana Hobb´s that in just a few more months in the sun she will be tan like me.

Next, you have photos of our groundhog celebration placemats. Aren´t they lovely?

As I mentioned in my email last week, last Monday was Hermana Hobb´s 22nd birthday. Mom sent me some great birthday party stuff in one of my packages so we celebrated with party hats and party blowers and a nice Happy Birthday tablecloth. We also made french toast with bananas and peanut butter syrup.

Alright, you can hold off on posting all the other photos until next week because I want to have more time to explain them.

This week I came down with a little stomach bug and we haven´t been working full days. It is a little discouraging to have to slow down so much but I am feeling much better now. Tonight we are doing our very first ever sister missionary companionship exchanges!!! At 6:30 today I am heading over to spend a couple days with Sister Sweet in Barrio 1 (in the very CENTER of Resistencia) and Sister Sweet´s companion, Sister McCown is coming here to be with Sister Hobbs. I am excited to see a new area and learn from other missionaries.

More next week.

Love,

Hermana Parker

PS. Oh I wanted to mention that this week I got a package from ITALY!!! I was very excited and I opened it up and found out it was from a certain Sorella Laws (Hi Lauren!) and she sent me the most amazing light green skirt with pockets which she used on her mission and I LOVE it! So thank you, if you´re reading this. :)
