New area

Hola Mamacita!
To answer your questions, there are currently 13 Hermanas in the mission and I've been companions with 6 of them. With the mission split they only took 6 Hermanas, but their areas were huge, so they will definitely be building up the number in Modesto. 
There should be 2 Hermanas coming in this upcoming transfer, which is awesome! The problem is that we really don't need more Hermanas because there are only so many Spanish areas they can create in this mission... Also the oldest Hermanas are going home in December, so we aren't going to be losing anyone for a while. Haha yes, I had to be the one to be transferred. President Jardine and the APs sat at the transfer board for 4 hours deciding who was to come to Carmichael. They were led by the spirit and I know that I'm the one that is supposed to be here at this time. Haha transfers is going to happen next week and it will be completely normal, I'm just super curious to see where I end up. 
 Haha those are the wrong apartments :P but ya, the same street. Dad sent me the email on Tuesday... So I couldn't really respond to it or anything until today :P haha I saw Aaron & Joylyn while we were driving away from the church, I tried to wave but they weren't paying attention :P they were just too late to church! Haha just kidding!

Thrift store shopping!! I'm not holding a Canadian flag for no reason, my DL is Canadian :P
New companion Hermana Webb


Well, with Carmichael being Carmichael, we literally have no investigators. We found 2 last week, but one had a fake address and the other wasn't home for their return appointment, but of course, we will try again!!! Haha thank goodness I have Hna Webb as a companion or I think I would literally go insane. :p she is super enthusiastic about the work and really positive about this area, where most missionaries would frown about it. Because we're only going to be together for 2 weeks (at least, there's always next transfer!), I was feeling super awkward as to where to get started with the work and how to make the best out of our 2 weeks. Well, we have a goal and its BAPTISM! As always! But we're super excited about it, so it's great! We still don't have anyone progressing, but we're working on it! 

I love being back with Sister Schow! She always has a pink bucket that she carries around on her Lamborghini (indoor walker) that has all of her important things she needs in the day. She has 2 letters, one from you and one from me. Haha she showed me that she was going to respond to my letter, but then I came back after only 4 weeks. Haha she says I'm the fastest sister to ever come back! Haha

Sister Schow and Hermana Twitchell

Well, I should probably go! Thank you for being such an amazing mother and for helping me be obedient!! I will try my best to fit in the clothes you sent me :P and if not that I can get them sent to you by Monday.

Para Siempre Dios esté con Vos,

Con Amor,

Hermana Twitchell

PS tell Austin I'm sorry I didn't send him a letter for his birthday. I meant to, but things got so busy last p-day that I didn't have time...
