This week my comp and I decided to start running in the mornings. We went to a park, where they also have boxing training. It is a free program for all the kids so that they can learn to box instead of getting involved with drugs; it's pretty awesome. The first morning that we went the owner of the boxing club told me, "Ey huera, ven por aca". Then he opened up his gym and told me we can come all the mornings to train and work out! It is a pretty sweet hook up we got going just a block from our house! RAD! Who knows, maybe someday the guy will get baptized!
This week started the heat of Sonora. It was 40 to 46 degrees here in Peñasco {Amy here: that equals 104-114 Fahrenheit} and it was the coolest here in the whole state of Sonora! Here it is super humid so you just sweat buckets. I didn't even know I could sweat like I did this week. This is the reason I was a swimmer and not a runner, because gross!! haha it is awesome, I'll enjoy it enough for all of you.
I have the craziest news ever... we have to start using PANTS and sunglasses to protect us from the sun, and the diseases that you can get from mosquitoes... almost all the missions in Mexico are going to start using pants. Before the mission, I hated using skirts, but now, using pants is going to feel so weird. I am going to feel naked and like an Elder walking around in pants. From now on you can write to Elder Barton.. haha jk But we will see how it goes. It is something inspired from the prophet, only he knows best!
I love you all! Thanks for your love and support! Shout out to my cousins who got married this last week, and my cousin Alex the Great McRae who got his mission call! And my Aunt Amy who also got married/sealed! So stoked for all of you! It is truly amazing all the blessing that Heavenly Father continues to pour down.
Oceans of love,
Hermana Barton
