February

We had the first ever couple from Pantelhó come to the temple and then they were sealed. He is the branch president and she is the Relief Society Pres. I got to help sister Gomez all the way through the evening and she was crying and so happy. She speaks more Tzotzil than Spanish and can’t write and only reads a little. She had me put many of her family on the prayer roll of the temple. What a beautiful and sweet experience it was.
 The Gomez family.
Justin had his debut book signing in UT and his aunt, siblings and cousins and others came to support him.
 All of our kids went to Emma's ballet of Sleeping Beauty, where she played Aurora.
 Alan and I walked to the other side of the city again, kind of for my birthday. We bought shoes for me to walk in and chinese food, 17 miles in total.
My new walking shoes. The only discounted shoes in my size!
I made muffins for our english classes and they sang happy birthday and Las Mananitas to me.
 We made fudge and shared it with the Marques and the adult missionaries in San Cristobal.
 The group of 5 couples from Chamula that got sealed. They speak Tzotzil and a little bit of spanish and needed translators for all the ordinances.
Alan was the picture taker for everyone, so he got a selfie.
