  December 1, 2014
Jaymee and her new companions (Hma. Nyre & Hma. Newman)

Friends & Family,

So this week was CRAZY. hahaha It didn't go as I planned.. but it's okay. haha So we went to the transfer meeting to pick up our trainee. Her name is Hermana Nyre and she is from..... (drum roll.....) UTAH!!!!!! hahaha. She is great! She loves to work so that is a plus. So we went straight to Virginia Beach and got to WORK!!! :) I love Hermana Newman so much. She makes me laugh all the time!!! SHE IS THE BEST :)

So Thanksgiving was GREAT. haha I really am in LOVE with this Spanish Branch. I feel like I learned so much Spanish already. I understand and talk more which is GREAT!!!!!! I am so happy here. Everyone is so understanding! Sooo.... you have to eat all your food on your plate. It's just what you have to do, eat everything. So we get to dinner for Thanksgiving... you think you ate a lot already... I PROBABLY ate 10x what you ate. hahaha NO JOKE............. I gained 3 lbs.... just in one night.... hahaha funny huh....  anyways...

So my companion the new one, Hermana Nyre... couldn't eat her food... hahaha so I had to eat it. What I do for my companions haha! Anyways. Thanksgiving was great! I loved it. It was a fun experience that I probably won't ever have again!!! The Branch here is really amazing though! 

Everywhere we go to teach they feed us!! ITS GREAT! :) 

I just love the people here and love speaking Spanish!!!!! It brings me so much joy!!! :) 

So Friday I started feeling sick.. I had a fever... so I just relaxed and slept all day and night.... hoping I would feel better in the morning. NOPE.. still had a fever, cough, achy. Slept ALL day. then Sunday... I STILL didn't feel good. So my mission president told me to go to urgent care... so we went and took sacrament at a different church and left to go to the urgent care.. that took 3 HOURS......  but whatever... I have the flu. Yay.... haha so I have a senior couple missionaries come and "babysit me " while my other two companions go out...

But anyways I love my new area. I am truly so happy!!! :) I love being a missionary! 

I miss and love ya'll!!!
