It is officially four months that we have been here.  Thank heavens!~  We are not so totally lost in every way - just in a few ways..  We studied this morning then went to Spanish class. There are four sisters there who want Scott to teach them an elementary Spanish class.  I certainly can understand that because I am just beginning to understand Elder Hammon some of the time.  So it looks like we will have two more Spanish classes a week. (On Monday and Wednesdays.)  Sister Mahon is so frustrated trying to learn - her husband knows Spanish but is not patient enough to teach her.  I am very grateful that Scott has been so patient with me!
  Family Home Evening tonight was with all of the senior couples in the Casa Sala (lunchroom).
Brother Williams, from the States, grew up singing in barbershop quartets so he has formed a group here of  men that he met through the church who love to sing.  They are the group that meets every Sunday night in the Casa to practice that we went to listen to when we first got here. They are very good.  It was so mc fun to listen to them sing "On the Lone Prairie" in English and know that they had no idea what the lone prairie would be like.
  We met a couple from the part of Cache Valley that is in Idaho.  They are going to Giana as PDF missionaries and are here being trained for a few days. She agreed to help with the music program there ! ! !
