Happy Father's Day

¡Feliz dia de padres! to everyone and especially my dad! Im wishing they'd let us call home fathers day too pero no podemos. Other than that Sunday was good! I was excited that the sacrament meeting was in Spanish but slightly disappointed when some of the English members complained about having to wear headphones (when the Hispanics are wearing headphones almost every week). We had dinner with our investigator, Emelia, that we just met on Friday. She has a long history with missionaries and the church and she is a little crazy but she loves us and when she met us she immediately invited us over for dinner. She actually happens to be from Nicaragua, which was really cool because I could understand her Spanish better than others here in Wasco. I was so happy to be eating Nica food once again. She already invited us over again for breakfast this week and we're looking forward to that. We're hoping to be able to share something a little more in depth this next time because typically she won't stop talking and it's really really hard to get her back on track and to be quiet. but shes a sweetheart and she has a super cute huskie puppy that we played with. (ill send a picture)

On Tuesday we dropped off and said goodbye to Hermana Melendez & cried a little about that. We spent all day in Bakersfield because of transfers and i had training orientation. On transfer days we can shop in Bakersfield so we went to our favorite store Trader Joe's. And we ran into some members who gave us a $100 TJs GIFT CARD. We were the happiest little sister missionaries on the planet. That evening we had a family home evening ward activity at the church and we did the iron rod activity! Super fun and we had a ton of investigators there!

On Wednesday we were in Bakersfield all day trying to get our phones fixed because the SIM card was broken and we lost all our contacts! It's super weird to be part of a smart phone mission but it's good! & and we use Facebook so friend me!

Friday our dinner appointment fell through so we got carne asada fries from our favorite little hole in the wall restaurant, La imperial

We go to Starbucks all the time because it's just about the only place we can get Wi-Fi to send out texts and sync our info on the area book app. One of the workers has become our friend and he gives us free drinks all the time. We think he knows we don't drink coffee because it's always herbal tea or fraps. Today my momma sent me a huge box of cookies from the sweet tooth fairy shop in provo and I took the box into Starbucks with me to share with the workers. Next time we go in we'll share some books of mormon(:

We only had one investigator at church this week, Jenny! She's on date for July 7 and she's pretty much already a member. She doesn't miss a single sunday and she's gives awesome comments during gospel doctrine and relief society! We are often learning more from her than she is from us!

Here's some pictures!!:
