Hola! I'm in Chile!!!

¡HOLA! I`m in CHILE!! it`s crazy right?

The first few days were a struggle, seeing that I don't speak the language here, unless you ask me about Jo.Smith, then we`re good. 

The mission presidency seems great! They all very loving and excited about the work. My companions name is Hermana S, she`s been out a little over a year and she`s great! She very hard working, her Spanish is awesome and she has such a great relationship with the member here. I think that`s what`s been hard for me, I want more then anything to have a relationship with the people in the ward and our investigators but I cant keep up with their Spanish!! They talk incredibly fast. 

I figured a way to explain it. It`s like when your in class and your not paying attention until the teacher calls on you to explain a concept. Everyone`s staring at you, you`re head starts spinning as you try to find information filed away in your brain and you try to read every ones faces for some sort of inclination of what the answer would be. It`s so frustrating! Everyday I have to remind myself, the Lord called me to speak Spanish, therefore 

I CAN DO THIS!!! 

The people are so endearing; the member are incredible and so loving. Everyday we eat lunch with at a member`s house and they feed us soooo much! We always start with soup or salad, then the main course then something sweet like flan or fruit. The food is really good, THE BREAD. Everyone says careful with the bread cause you'll gain weight like crazy because of the bread. Super rico. They feed us a lot of eggs like egg drop soup or a fried egg on top of our meat and a lot of corn too. One member family has a little market on the side of their house and we get fresh fruit, veggies, nuts etc. for free. Can you believe that? We`re seriously spoiled. AND it`s so beautiful! we`re right by the lake and you can see volcano Osorno from our house.

 Right next to the lake is the business area, then more up on the hill is our area. The houses are really humble and little, they don`t have much but they`re always willing to give too. The roads are mostly gravel oh and the dogs! Perros everywhere! Probably more than the people, but for real (and they not all that cute. did you just hear that from me? yeah, you did).

So our investigators are doing good! I getting to know them, slowing but surely. We have one girl with fecha por bautismal! Her name is M and she`s super cute. Our other investigators are progressing a little slower; a couple won't be baptized anytime soon because their parents wont allow them. ): But we`re doing a lot of street contacting. This week we found a few people that were super receptive! it was so exciting! One is a couple with a little baby. We`ll teach him again this weekend and invite him to be baptized. Another was a guy in a section called Mirador, a little further from home, we totally forgot to get his name! But we`ll be back to bring our brother to the fold, don't worry. Another was a little store owner, C. Just about everyone here is Catholic or Evangelico so they always say "I`m already baptised". Yay for the priesthood though am I right?

Thank you to those that email though! I don't have much time to write so I`m so sorry if I don't write back but I promise they mean the world to me!! And thank you for your prayers. Love you all so much. 

Remember, read the book of Mormon and hug your family. 

oh also pray for my sweet brother coming home this next week!!!

Hermana Meacham

SHE'S ARRIVED!!!

Dear Family of Sister Meacham,

We are pleased to inform that your daughter has arrived safe and sound and smiling to the Chile Osorno Mission.  It was a pleasure for us to greet your daughter upon her arrival and feel her desire to serve.  Enclosed is a picture that we took with her shortly after her arrival.  After a short period of orientation regarding mission procedures, customs of the country, etc., we assigned Sister Meacham to work with Sister Steele as her companion.  Your daughter's address during her time in the mission will be:

                                     Sister Paige Meacham

                        Casilla 7-0

                        Osorno, Chile

Sister Obeso and I love our missionaries and are truly happy to have the opportunity to work with Sister Meacham.  We appreciate your willingness to share her with us as she works as a missionary and ambassador for the Lord in Chile.  Sharing the gospel with these deserving children of our Father in Heaven will certainly bring great joy and satisfaction to her, and to you as well.  Thank you so much for helping her get to this point.

Please write her regularly–at least once a week.  Your love, interest, and support will be of great help to her.  Should there be any emergency or if you desire information regarding any urgent situation, please feel free to contact the Missionary Department in Salt Lake City rather than go to the expense of phoning the mission here in Chile. 

The missionary work is progressing rapidly here in southern Chile, and I hope that you will share in her exciting mission experience as Sister Meacham writes to you weekly and keeps you informed of her challenges and achievements and experiences.

Sincerely,

President Rodrigo Obeso

Chile Osorno Mission

T-MINUS TWO DAYS

Que pasa?! 

T-minus two day til my departure 

to the most wonderful 

place in the world!!! 

COMO?? It can't be real. This week has definitely had it's fair share of up's and down's. Like today we started packing...AH! 

And our favorite phrase for the next few days will be "the last____".

 It varies from the happiest of things to the worst.

We had our "last" lesson with Alejandro (Hermano V). Last week He warned us that we were going to have to give a very specific lesson on the ley de castidad and that he would make it very difficult. So Wednesday we knock on his door with our chastity pamphlets ready and of course there was no need. The lesson kicked off in to a direction much unexpected. The whole time we had been teaching him he was very receptive and usually kept his commitments, so you can imagine the look on my face when he said he didn't understand why our church had so many rules and why it should be important in his life. We reminded him the the commandment are of God and are to help us draw closer to His spirit so we can live with him again. He asked the saddest question ever "then why do I not feel like I'm receiving blessings?". My brain was a wreck trying to remind him of the spirit he's felt and the happiness his family has had since he began teaching the lessons. We bore witness with person experiences. He said thank you and that was that. He were so worried that maybe we had lost him. THEN we went to lunch that day and saw our other teacher. He said he had just talked to Hermano V and shared that our lesson today was so beautiful! You never know what your word can do until you act upon them! (Even if it´s a circus in your brain as you share). 

The beloved Hermano V. I cried like a baby leaving this human today.  He has changed my life in SO many ways and has literally been the best teacher I've ever had in my entire existence. (He might have had a difficult time getting dressed this morning, but we love him still)

Today we also had a beautiful departing talk today, my companion and I. He asked how our experience has been here in the CCM and I spewed Spanish phrases through my sobs. He complimented our Spanish and our teaching skills and shared how Alejandro (his investigator persona) is his brother in law for realzies!!! I died. It's like we were legit teaching an investigator in a round about way. I've never had such an incredible teacher before. 

The happiest of all soul to ever live. p.s. HE'S ENGAGED!!
guess that's what happens when you go to Utah for Conference #blessings

Hmo P is silliest of all,
and I'm so grateful for all I've learned from him.
(It's impossible for cute Hma F. to be anything but cute. <3 her.) Far too much gozo en mi alma hoy. <3

We also said goodbye to our other teachers Hermano P and Hermano S and I once again let the tears fall as we shared hand hugs and sang "Hasta ver" as we parted ways. I can't wait to see these people in Heaven and fully express (in true Spanish) the examples they are to me and the impact they've had on my life.

This picture is the definition of our days with S-Bot.
SO MUCH LOVE!

THE Hermano S. who practically saved my life in the CCM. I WILL BE A "PREACH MY GOSPEL MISSIONARY" IF IT KILLS ME because of this dude. 
This is our beyonce "flawless" pic, idk.
Call it what you want. <3

OKAY so today was way weird right with it's up and downs and tears and packing and what not, and I was not feeling like the bomb. BUT Neil A. Anderson came to talk to us today and IT WAS TOTES THE WORD OF GOD. It was EXACTLY what I needed and so piercing to my soul. He talked of Christ and how He is central and it is necessary for us to USE the Atonement in order to KNOW the Atonement so we can TEACH the Atonement. It´s kind of like and obvious principle but it helped me make this connection in my head that my investigators and I are searching for the same thing: to come unto Christ. I'm still learning more of this gospel everyday, I am Christ´s investigator. With Christ I can become the person God would have me be, it's possible and it's happening. So quit doubting, be patient and work hard, cause the Lord needs me and the Chileans need me to become that person. 

The scriptures are beautiful, life is beautiful, Christ is beautiful. 
And PLEASE pray for me on Monday and Tuesday cuzzzzz IDK what will even happen. AHHH!

XOXOX

Hermana Meacham

p.s. let´s count how many times I can use the word beautiful shall we? Geezz.

All of the lovely humans I was blessed to encounter in a classroom setting here. Members of el distrito + our teachers. <3 (Also cute CCM gold statue dude, fitting right in)

Eating contraband tacos because #yoCCMo #youonlyCCMonce
(BTW they were easily the best thing I ever ate and street tacos are wonderful and my stomach's feeling iffy today but it's all worth it.)

BONUS INFO...

HERMANA MEACHAM called us briefly from the airport in Mexico, we only talked for 3 minutes. We asked her to share her testimony in Spanish! We recorded just a bit! Sounds pretty good to us after only 6 weeks in the CCM!!!

Army of Helman

¡Hola! ¿Que pasa?

This week has not even been real. For our service the past couple weeks we´ve been hostesses for the new missionaries, but I swear that was just me. And all of a sudden I´m leaving the beautiful prison del CCM en uno semana? es imposible pero es verdad.

This week has been full of chastising. Yay! But that is what it's about, always improving. Obedience was the first lesson learned. We´ve always tried to be obedient, in the first week we even wrote a poster for our mirror to remind us to strive for perfect obedience no matter what. But here's one thing, our district is so chatty. A few days ago our morning teacher told us he felt impressed to tell us about obedience. The spirit was so strong as he bore testimony of the blessings it brings. He also said that we´re already making a difference as missionaries and he remembers us, whenever he´s faced with trials and knows when he´s obedient he will be able to teach us with the spirit. It was beautiful. 

Then that afternoon we had Book of Mormon study with our night teacher. He asked us to share some of the questions we have as we read our scriptures then together we read Alma 56, the chapter of the Army of Helaman. It was incredible. We compared us to the stripling warriors preparing for battle. We noted the difference between the army of Antipus to the army of Helaman and what we can to be prepare our best. Vs. 44-48 are magic, well the whole chapter really. I really just have such an appreciation for the people in my life that have helped me prepare for this battle. It has been hard and I have wanted to sleep as the warrior of Antipus and maybe I have a little, but then I´m reminded who I´m fighting this battle for and the things I´ve "been taught by my mother" and the "liberty of my father". (vs. 56) and I know if I "fight with the strength of God"  "not one soul of them shall fall to the earth". 
We also had to say goodbye to this teacher yesterday. He´s seriously just been so incredible and just what we needed. He´s only 24 and in the bishopric and I think I can promise, he´ll be a general authority someday. It gave me a little taste of what it'll be like to say goodbye to all these people in 7 days. Tears for dayzzz man. Not fair that I´ll have to do that a million times over in the mission.

On Sunday we listened to a talk by Jeffery R. Holland to the missionaries, from a little while ago. I could have just died in that moment. He talked about how blessed we are to have Preach my Gospel. It is the perfect guide to become the kind of missionary God would have me be! Because the lesson are not planned out in memorized phrases we must be more prepared; we must KNOW the doctrine, we must KNOW the investigator, and we must KNOW the spirit. Apparently we have to be a better missionary that he was on his mission... eek! #stepitup. he then talked of "sweet Peter" who after Christ died took the disciples and went back to their own comfort of fishing. He was an apostle of the Lord yet when Christ died he was scared and didn't know he could do it. Then of course Jesus came and asks "do you love me?" and after a few times Peter finally says with conviction that he does and he´d do anything for Him. Christ pretty much tells him "well then, forget your fishing, when I asked you to leave it the first time I meant forever; FEED MY SHEEP". When the Lord asked for the Army of Helaman, He meant forever! This is the hour that Christ is asking us "do you love me?" and we must answer in terms of FOREVER and always be willing to do the work of the Lord, even in small and simple ways. 

Yesterday we taught our last lesson with Daniel, a sixteen year old boy who always falls asleep and texts during the lesson. This is the same one we took to look at the pictures of Christ. We´ve had a lot of up and downs with him but we were determined to have our last lesson beautiful. We did lots of studying and preparing but we didn´t make a step by step plan like we´ve done before. We really wanted this lesson to be lead by the spirit through Daniel. After the prayer we immediately asked him who Christ was to him. He gave a simple answer "el salvador" and we waited. He started to get uncomfortable so we asked "como?". Next thing we knew he was bearing his testimony of the Savior and we were all in tears. It reminded me that teaching lessons isn't about telling people the things we know, it´s about letting them discover what they know. We just have to help them open their mind. 

Us at the beautiful Mexico City Templo....
SO MUCH LOVE <3

Mexico's Church Hall of Beauty

Today we went to the visitor's center at the temple! We left the gates! (and of course all we wanted to sing, was the song from Frozen). I had forgotten there was a real world out there with real people living their ordinary lives and I got so excited to just talk to people! It was so happy. I wish we could just roam the streets and hand out Book of Mormon´s and give people besitos on the cheek and eat tacos. Soon enough though!  

WE GET TO PASS THE GATES!!!

Love you all more than life. Thank you so much for your prayers, I truly am being blessed everyday. xoxo Hermana Meacham

Bonus info....
 I did get your package! thank you sososososo much. seriously. It was so nice to get that. It's funny how something so simple can be so fun to get. Its just nice to have something familiar from someone familiar. The pictures made me cry. I want to look at them all the time, not in like a distracting way but just cause it reminds me of how blessed I am and how wonderful it is that I get to share the message of eternal families. So THANK YOU. 

this was like GOLD

I can't believe this is my last week!! Time went so fast. I still dont feel totally prepared but I guess you never really will and you just have to do it kind of thing. The Spanish is getting better I think, though I struggle with past tense like crazy, well pretty much all conjugations. hahaha but it'll come I'm sure. Its just hard to know if your doing all you can to learn the best you can. It's just between me and the Lord I guess! 

Today we went through the gates!!! I can't wait to teach real people. They talk so fast. There was a couple at the temple that wanted to take a picture with us. hahah. We´ve even had Latino missionaries want to take pictures with us.They just like the idea of American missionaries I guess.

We didn't get to go inside the temple. So sad. But the visitor center was awesome! Some sister missionaries took us on a tour and then we stopped at a little tienda and I got a cute little Mexican shirt. 

We think the sounds are cannons from a catholic or Christan church . no say porque. 

the Spanish is coming! I hate conjugations but I'm getting better. No doubt I'll be pretty quite in Chile though! I got my flight plans, I leave Monday at 8pm. I´ll arrive in Santiago about 7 the next morning. I fly with all the elders in my district but my comp flies out 6 hours later than me!! sad day. Then from Santiago 2 elders and I fly to Osorno around noon. I can't believe its almost here!!! Teachings have it's ups and downs but I definitely feel like I'm getting better.

Hey shout out to this guy's Mom who reads my blog (I think) WE LOVE YOU MAMA KOMENDA!

P-day equals Pizza day! 

We had a photo shoot in our matching stripes this p-day

So this is what happens when you're not paying attention in your lessons.  Don't put pens in your scriptures guys!

WEEKEND FROM HEAVEN

like forealz tho. was this weekend not incredible?

I LOVE GENERAL CONFERENCE. 

accidental matching outfits for Conference!

All the missionaries gathered in the auditorium to watch conference and I had this precious little moment where I imagined all the little children of Heavenly Father listening to His word all over the world and all different languages. Was that not so cool though how cultural it was this year!? Anyway one of my fav talks was President Uchtdorf in the first session. I loved that he related people hearing this gospel for the first time to the advancement in technology. People will call you crazy and try to prove you wrong with the things they know to be true and they´ll say it with conviction out of the seriousness of their heart because it's what they think is truly right. We should not be offended, be patient, help them to receive the fullness of light. And all the talk of temples too? GO TO THE TEMPLE YOU GUYS cause it´s all I dream of here... so jelly you guys can go any day. I honestly could rant about all of the talks. Too good too good you guys. Also where my ladies at, cuz, um, general women's broadcast?! Like I´ll just cry my eyes out because of all the beautiful words and Korean children in the world.

Oreo Party after Conference. We found them in the vending machine. #soooohappy

My companion brought individual size peanut butters! Bless her heart! 

Conference also was like a way cool opportunity to invite our "investigators" to listen to our living prophet! We have a new investigator/teacher because our friend Hermano Pollo is in lovely Utah. Our new teacher is Hermano Silva. He´s so happy and fun but he's also kicking our kick and really helping us to push harder. Everyday we´re suppose to be memorizing 15-25 words and 3-5 phrases, and 2-4 scriptures a week. MUY DIFÍCIL pero necesario. Anyway, his investigator character is Daniel, a 16 year old boy who almost got baptized 2 years ago but his mom wouldn't let him and now he doesn't see a reason to religion. He always pulls out his phone, doses of to sleep and never shares anything personal. How do  you teach someone you don't even know? Well my companion had a brilliant idea. One time he told us he likes his art class and there are these beautiful painting in one of the buildings (the Liz Lemon ones I talked about) so for our next lesson we asked him to met us there. We walked around and looked at the paintings of Christ and talked about why this gospel is so important and how wonderful our brother Jesus Christ is. He stayed awake and he totally shared his gratitude for Christ! Tomorrow we´ll talked to him about how he "liked watching conference with us" this weekend.

Well this week I was also reminded of how much the Lord has a hand in everything we do and go through. Thursday morning us Hermana's we´re having a little bit of a struggle. Usually we teach one lesson a day, switching of investigators with the Elders. BUT from Thursday to Saturday we would be teaching every lesson! 4 lessons in a row while the Elders only taught one, which means when we´re suppose to have time to prep for our next lesson we´d be using that time to teach! We did not hide that fact that we were a little upset. oops. One of the lessons was to an actual random citizen of Mexico, a real live INVESTIGATOR. We were terrified. We ended up running out of time so we only could talk to him for 5 minutes and it wasn't that great of a lesson, but to think I was teaching a son a God about how we can pray to God anytime and he will hear. I just wanted to pour out all the love I know Heavenly Father has more him!! It was such a good experience and afterwards us Hermana's told ourselves to suck it up and be happy because this is such a wonderful opportunity we have. Not even a half hour later our teacher told us he double checked our teaching schedule and we wouldn´t have to teach in the morning. I think I heard Heavenly Father say in that moment "Have faith, be happy, I got you". We can do hard things you guys.

So yesterday we had a fun moment. About a week ago we asked for references from our investigator Alejandro. He told us he had a neighbor "Flor" (who´s actually his sister who teaches in the other building). We stopped by a couple times but she was never there, until yesterday. She was teaching but we were so desperate to actually make contact with her so we knocked and did the door approach in front of her whole class. She told us she could meet with us at 1130. So 1130 comes around and we leave class a little early to teach her, when we get there she teaching class still! how do you teach someone about the gospel in the middle of them teaching missionaries how to teach the gospel?! IDK. But we figured we needed to be missionaries and also make Hermano Vargas proud, so we knocked. Then we asked if this still wasn't a good time she said "you actually have a lesson for me??" (but in español obvi). Hahah the whole fake investigator that you're suppose to treat like a real person thing is too weird guys! So turns out we really weren't suppose to prepare a lesson for her but we´re teaching her this Thursday! YAY.

Anyway, life is beautiful and the gospels true.

Peace and blessings.
HERMANA MEACHAM

so once upon a time a strange jelly dessert 
thing came in MINI POTS.
I picked some flowery weeds and planted them, 
so happy with myself.

they were dead by 10pm that night

We love email time!!!

HOLA ENCANTANDOR AMIGOS Y FAMILIA!

This week has been oh so good. The time is crazy. I feel like I was just writing.

I forgot to say somethings last week so I´ll also be squeezing those in here too.

To start I´ll answer my fathers question about the food here. No there´s no café rio and I´m pretty sad about that. They have a lot of corn products, meat and strange desserts. Our second week here my roomies and I were really missing veggies, I totally didn´t appreciate our garden at home while I had it. We had had a rough day and were starting to feel sick, low in behold a million veggies were served at dinner that day. Heavenly Father loves His children. #blessins

The comedor is the place to be man. First off cause it´s a break from classes, second because our BFF works there. His name is J (but the j is like an h cuz of Spanish, ya know). He is the happiest person I´ve ever met. He´s a return missionary and his goal is to memorize all of the missionaries name. We asked him why he´s so happy all the time and he said "well, my mission president said you can be only one thing: happy or sad. and I chose happy." A couple days later he told us his girlfriend broke up with him and when we responding with saying she must be crazy he said "No, she´s nice. I´ll be her friend. I´m happy!" We all have something to learn from J. 

The people here are so incredible. The workers, the teachers, everybody. They all have a genuine spirit and love for the CCM. We have a good time here. Yesterday my night teacher had us all play signs, the game, and if you lost you had to memorize a scripture in Spanish. Most intense game of signs I´ve played (it´s a good thing one of our district goals for the week was to memorize 3 scriptures anyway). 

The pressure is on to learn español. This week is SOLO ESPAÑOL! If we say a word in English during class we´re forced to either do squats or push-ups. So yesterday was our first day, after our morning class we went to lunch and we were (or at least I was) struggling to keep up the Spanish. You might have thought my Spanish-English dictionary was glued to my hand. We were talking about Mexico's strange vitamin D milk and I wanted to say that my little brother loves vitamin D milk but instead I said "Mi menjor hermano mucho gusto vitamina D leche". <---- "nice to meet you milk" ???Close, but not quite. Yikes, wish me luck.

This week I really began studying more on Joseph Smith, I mean I guess he´s kind of important to a missionaries message right? So the girls and I went to one of the building and looked at these beautiful painting of Christ and Joseph Smith by the artist Liz Lemon i think, (LOOK HER UP). Anyway, we just bawled. I´ve been reading Joseph Smith History too and pretty much cry every night, (GO READ IT). So you have to know, every Sunday we get to watch a film like the Testaments or something so we were just saying smalls prayers it would be The Restoration. Guess what?? The Restoration played that night. We just bawled. Heavenly Father loves His children.

This Sunday was also fast Sunday due to General Conference next week (who´s excited?! yay). We started our fast on Saturday after lunch and broke our fast Sunday at lunch. It was the easiest it´s ever been fasting and umm testimony meeting in Spanish? INCREDIBLE! We can´t say all that much so everything said were the simple truths, that´s how testimony should be. That´s how we need to teach. I think that might be a reason I got called speaking Spanish.  If I was called English speaking I would be all over the place, people be like... uhh?

FUNFACTS about our Sunday. After sacrament meeting I watched a bird die right in front of me. He flew into a window 3 feet from us Hermanas... I cried. It was an emotional day, ok?  Also, you know how usually you see balloons float away and never see them come back down? Well we saw one, floating down. IDK how.

The spirit in the CMM is sooo strong! My companion and I have been trying to push ourselves in our lessons. Usually we´d write everything in English then translate everything in Español and read straight from our papers. Now we´re only using note cards with key points and Spanish words we don´t know. Scary! Our last lesson was with Alejandro (aka our morning teacher hermano Vargas). His character is a young married guy with a baby, his wife is a member, he has Catholic background but no strong beliefs. His mom also passed away when he was young. So we taught him about the Resurrection and eternal families. We started basic but he began asking many questions and was confused about why trying to pray and read felt hard for him and why his life would be hard if God really wanted to live with him again. My companion was throwin out analogies and I was throwing out personal experiences, IN SPANISH. I mean of course it was probably the worst grammar you´ve ever heard of but THE SPIRIT WAS THE MESSAGE. I knew then of the deepest love I will feel for God´s children in Chile. He wants to live with His children again, He wants them to know of the most wonderful gift of all, the Atonement of Jesus Christ. We asked Alejandro to say the closing pray (may I remind you he is our teacher) and while he prayed he cried! The investigators we teach aren´t real, but the gospel is.

My other teacher, Hermano Polo, made me cry too, surprise! This teacher is such a goofball, always trying to understand English and stealing our pens but none the less he teaches us so much. Last week he was talking about how important what we´re doing is and he told us of his conversion story. He was 18 and his family were strong Catholics. He hide his Book of Mormon in a backpack with a beer logo on it. When he was finally baptized he worked for 5 years to help convert his family and while he was on his mission his father was finally baptized. His 18 year old self reminded me so much as his first character we taught and I realized maybe I could help some kind of difference like that in a family. I took it for granted everyday the blessing of being raised in the beautiful gospel. Hermano Polo will be going to General Conference this weekend in Salt Lake, he´ll be gone for 2 week! We will miss him more than life. But if any of you go up plz give him a hug for me (and maybe some conference tickets). Last night was his last night with us for 2 weeks so he shared a scripture in John 15. He then said "I work here because I want to be a missionary all my life".

Now being out here I realize what a difference we really can make. I had so many opportunities to share the gospel in my life but didn´t take them for fear of being told I was wrong or people not accepting something I hold so dear. But that´s why we should share the gospel! Because it is so dear! I know it´s true and it blessing peoples lives, so why should I think they´ll immediately turn it away? 

I you love me go read St. John 15. God has chosen us, He´s called us as friends. He blesses us because HE LOVES US, we should serve Him because we LOVE HIM! Remember if things are hard, they were hard for him first. and verse 27?? soo good. (like a cliff hanger... so you have to go read it now?)

Love you all. Thank you for your prayers. I know the missionaries around the world truly are blessed everyday. Even the trails are good for us (; 

xoxo
