UP ON THE HOUSETOP CAUSE I AM SNEAKING INTO YOUR CHIMNEYS!!!!


MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!!!!!

So glad that I get to talk to everyone again!! I hope that everyone had an awesome Christmas and that you were able to make this one memorable. My week was pretty good, not a whole lot going on since it was the holiday season and everyone was spending time with their family. Spending Christmas with the members is always a good time because I get to see the kind of different traditions that people have. But without further delay let us jump right on into this thing!

Also to preface I don't have a ton of time to email today so apologies in advance for it being a little shorter.

Cool things that happened this week is that Elder Heppler and I went out and got a tree to put up in our apartment so we could make it a little more festive. It was a little wild and all over the place when we first got it but I was able to trim it back and make it look somewhat presentable.

Christmas Eve was pretty sweet. We went to church for one hour and then the Branch here hooked us up big time with some gifts! They gave us loads of candy and a bunch of gift cards to go out to eat places and other things like shampoo, shoe polish, and socks! It honestly made my day. I am so grateful to be serving in an area with amazing members like this. That day we spent hanging out with members and playing Phase 10.

Christmas was sick! In the morning Elder Heppler and I took turns opening gifts so we could start the day off right. After that we went to a member's house for breakfast and then played some board games. Then we went over to the Scott's so we could Skype home to our families. I really enjoyed that. It was nice to see and talk to everyone again. I am so grateful for the family that I have and the continual love and support that they give me. I love them very much. After we got done Skyping we went over to the Ayer's for dinner and then we played some Balderdash.

But yeah that is all I got for this week! Hope everyone continues to have a good rest of their week and get ready for the New Year. My next email won't come out until next Wednesday because of transfers and New Years.

Love and miss you all!!
