Hey whats up guys? So I heard that you all went down to the yellow house for the easter holiday, I hope you guys had some good four wheeler rides, and bike rides and some good games of basketball and i heard that you guys are going to beat me after the mission, i guess we will just have to see about that haha. I also hope you guys had a lot of candy and some sweet easter egg hunts too. It is always a good time going down to the yellow house. Well they celebrate easter a little bit different here they call it "semana santa", or "holy week." This whole week everybody has been on vacation from work and school. On friday the whole country shut down, there wasnt a stinking open store anywhere and everybody left to the beach, and the people that didnt go out to the beach filled up big old plastic pools in the middles of the street and sat in them while drinking their acohol. Also while we were studying in the morning on friday we heard all these people singing and it was getting louder and louder. It was a huge catholic parade there was one person dragging a big wooden cross and then tons and tons of people following and singing. They were celebrating the death of Jesus Christ, they celebrate the death a whole lot more than the resurection. But it was crazy we couldnt do any missionary work because either people werent at there houses or they were having big old parties, so yeah that was friday and saturday was almost the same as friday and then yesterday we finally got to get some work done, so that always feels good. Well Dayana missed church on sunday because on sunday morning her grandma came to her house and said Dayana we are going to go to the country and Dayana said grandma I am going to church, and her grandma said come on lets go to the country and she went. So we have to postpone Dayanas baptism for the 21 of april and Dayana was bummed she said next time someone comes to my house on sunday morning, I am going to say no I am going to church. She is super prepared and hasnt had a problem with a single commandment or anything so we are really excited for her and she is really excited too. Also, Chelo went out to the Country to work in the bean feilds for this last week and the week that is coming, so we are just waiting til he gets back to contiue teaching him. We have found a couple more really cool people in this last week and we are still just working away here in Enrriquillo. Well in the middle of writing this letter the internet center´s power just went away so we had to walk to a different internet center and thanks to myldsmail my letter was saved on autosave, so i recieved a tender mercy haha. Anyways everything is going good here I hope everything is going good for you all back home I love you all, and have a good week.
