Dear
Family and Friends,
Thanks for your
Christmas wishes. I still can’t believe
that it is Christmas. Doesn’t feel like
it at all!! But things are better that
way. :)
So, in Latin America,
they celebrate Christmas more on Christmas Eve (today) than actual Christmas
day. They celebrate it like New Year’s
Eve, so everyone stays up partying until midnight and then they all hug and
open their presents.
For missionaries,
these are two normal days in the working field.... Today is p-day and tomorrow
is Tuesday. Ha! Ha! Tonight we have permission to stay in the
house of a member until 11:00 pm, though….Woot. And tomorrow we can call home, but everything
else is the same... Feliz Navidad to me! Ha! Ha! Ha!
I actually am enjoying
this hot Christmas more than I thought I would! Some members have given us gifts and I
ABSOLUTELY LOVED my Christmas packages. The
best parts of my packages were:
1. Opening them and
looking up the scriptures with my companion.
2. There was a ton of
stuff for me AND my companion.
3. The things you sent
were seriously perfect! I’ve never appreciated getting goldfish crackers and
socks from anyone for any reason in my entire life. :)
4. Letter from Dad.
Very unexpected.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU,
THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!
I don’t really know
what else to tell you all, especially since I will be talking to you all
tomorrow...
Have questions that
you want to know tomorrow, so that you can ask me and get answers right
away.... I’m going to be using the skype account of my companion. I will be
ready to call as close to 6:30 pm that I can.
Have the computer ready between 6:15-6:45 pm. Since you didn’t tell me the address of who
to call, you need to call me..... Call
at 3:30 pm (your time) exactly. If no
one is there keep trying please.
I’m SUPER excited to
talk to you all tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait. :)
Hope everyone is happy
and doing well and enjoying the Christmas Spirit!!!!!
FELIZ NAVIDAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOVE YOU!!!!
