Happy New Year & Merry Christmas!

This week was very uneventful due to the holiday. so this is going to be short and i apologize for that! 
Christmas day we went up to the VC and had a freaking party!! We watched Monsters University which is pretty entertaining after amonth and a half of no entertainment! LOL and we went to the Chapel just around the corner and had lunch and watched all the zones perform a little "skit" we put together. our skit was the best. one elder showed his tap dancing skills, another showed his staff twirling skills and the last elder did a freestyle rap with a sister playing the piano and and elder beatboxing with him! IT WAS SICK!!! well sorry for the shortest email in the books this week, it's been super dooper slow!

I LOVE YOU ALL SO VERY VERY MUCH AND I HOPE YOU HAVE AN AWESOME NEW YEAR!!!!!

Favorite meal for the week

-Pork roast and Funeral Potatoes!

What did you do on Christmas Eve

-We didn't do anything other than some people to go check on and then our dinner appointment. They gave us a tie each, and then 2 bags of groceries. It was really nice!

What did you do on Christmas Day

-We traveled up to the Visitors Center and basically had a party! We watched Monsters University (GO SEE IT), then we went to the chapel around the block and had a big mission lunch! there was turkey, gravy, stuffing, mashed and sweet potatoes, salad, and PIE!!! :) and then in the evening we went to one of the 1st wards members home for dinner, dessert and games including hockey in the basement!!

What did you get for Christmas?

-I got a tie clip, Washington DC keychain from family, protein powder (early gift), and then pringles, big bag of candy, Sparkiling cider from a members house, and 4 gift cards. 2 were two subway and then BK and Amazon.com!

What are you planning for New Years?

-Not really sure.... probably going to be inside for most of the day :/

What did you notice spiritually about Christmas this year compared to other years and why

-spiritual growth on my part. i am becoming more confident in speaking. not much but testifying of the truth is coming along good!
