Experiencing Mexico

Crazy storm! We had to take our shoes off to walk home.

HELLO FAMILY! ITS NATURAL NATALIE COMIN IN LIVE FROM THE ONE AND ONLY MEEEXXXIIICCCCOOOO CCCIIITTTYYY! (ONLY ONE MORE WEEK I CAN SAY THAT) But I'd like to report things are running smoothly here. Last night we had winds of 80 miles an hour coming in from the east and rain like I've never seen since my days in Genovia. The streets were flooded with about four inches of rain water. I guess its great since we here are in a drought! (ok that was fun. I've always wanted to report something. (I don't think Mexico is actually in a drought) BUT WOW craziest storm last night like I was sooo scared.. lightning, rain, craziest hail. All the latinos were like ahhh snow! Anyway, I went from being the mom to the baby sooo fast. Our district is all in class last night... its about 8:30 and the power goes out...  I'm screaming, plugging my ears, and on my companions lap in a matter of seconds. It was quite embarrassing when the lights came back on. 
It made me homesick for the ranch though because man the ranch has THEE BEST storms. ahhh man what I'd do for a Wyoming storm. (I met this girl here from big piney- NEW BEST FRIEND HERE) and Elder Dawda lost his voice so it sounded similar to Ross's voice when he just wakes up. ahhh man the ranch just knows the way to my heart I'll tell you what! 

Sundays are my JAMMMMMM! They are the best days ever!! We just go from devotional to devotional all day long and they are always amazing!! The starting line up this week was, Holland then Bednar then President Tenorio. Such a solid Sunday. The president of the CCM is HILARIOUS. He's from Mexico and just the best guy around. His talk had us all rolling on Sunday. Him and his wife are so in love its darling. The story of how he asked her to marry him is so good... I'll tell it another time. But the guys in our district saw him and his wife makin' out the other day... hahaha best humans here!! ANYWHO, these emails are so hard to write there are so many things i wanna say! But sunday night is MOVIE NIGHT! EVERY MISSIONARY IS PUMPED OUT OF THERE MIND FOR THIS! So everyone walkin into the auditorium like we walkin in front row to some Fergie Concert. We take our seats and they throw up STONECUTTER!! I'm like heeeccckkkkk yyaaaaaa!!! (fist pump the heavens) stonecutter! This movies been wrapped in plastic in the movie drawer for YYYEEEARRRRSS. and all the missionaries laugh at the stupidest things but somehow we all and all leave together in tears... the stonecutter is just beautiful. OH MY OH MY have you guys seen "How Rare a Possession" FRANCHESCA (dont know how to spell his name) is my new role model. My heart goes out to him in that beautiful 80's film! 

So our district had a tennis tournament... lets just say Coach Mikes and Sasha did well... they really played their part and pulled through. They taught me well- "on and off the court." That's what Hermana Saunders told me. But it was so much fun!!! Then for service I don't know how people don't like service here. It's the best day of my life! I GOT TO RIDE IN THE BACK OF A MEXICAN TRUCK AND DELIEVER WATER TO THE CLASSROOMS!!! So many dreams come true here.

Last story I promise.... so the other night I'm in bed in my pjs and it's 10:20 and this girl knocks on the door and is like, "um Hermana Wagstaff there is a man for you at the door." I was like ummmmm what kinda man? like does he want to kill me? So i throw on my raincoat and there is this worker man on his bike at the door. (soo many thoughts running through my head. Did someone get hurt in my family? I laid in the grass I know... am I going home???) and he just simply hands me a letter from my mission president that he would pick me up at the airport on March 24th and that we would have din din at his house. SUCH A SCARE!! 

Mom, me and the hermana johnson were already friends. She's so cute!!! I love her and she left today!! Anyways, I love you guys so much!! I'm learning so much everyday!!

Have the best week ever! love, Tony

Yeah times have changed... I'm really musical and I play the violin.
Good times with the district
