Cockroaches, Armadillos, Oh My!


 Never have to make our beds!

The City of  Pombal


No  more walking, we have a car....funny thing, we just go in circles, uhmmmm

Well transfers happened again! I am staying her in Pombal with a `Curto Praza` or I´ve heard that Americans call them `Mini Missionaries`. This type of missionary is like a stand in for 6 weeks when we are lacking another sister missionary. So they don’t have a nametag, they don’t know anything and just follow you around for 6 weeks! Ha ha!  It will be pretty interesting! I am excited for this experience.
This past week we had a few funny moments.  We visited a less active family who has a pretty funny pet. I picked it up and took a picture! But the first time I saw this animal it was dark, and they weren’t explaining very clearly what it was. So when they brought it out, I thought it was stuffed. But then it started moving and scared me! I realized that it was an armadillo- pretty cool!
Last night I had another funny experience. I was talking with people in their house and I suddenly felt something on my leg. I looked down to find a huge cockroach there and i kicked it off. My heart took a little while to calm down after that. Ugh, gross!
Sorry so short…keeping busy!
Love you all!
