What's up guys??!
Well this week’s been awesome!! We had a Christmas
conference and then Christmas plus New Year’s is right around the corner!
This week Elder Curtis and I tried really hard to get some new investigators
from finding but we pretty much came out empty handed but… we've definitely
planted some seeds which in my eyes is just as good! We had a less active
member let us come over and teach the family he lives with and we saw
something amazing in him during the lessons so we can't wait to go back
and follow up!
It's FREAKING COLD HERE! I love it!! Like seriously way
better than that 80-degree hotness we had on Christmas! :p But if there
was that rain game going on right now it would ice up like crazy!! It kind
of reminds me of home and stuff so it's really good :) It was so
amazing being able to talk to my family on Christmas they've all grown so
much it's crazy to me! I miss them so much and they mean everything to me.
I can't wait to see them when I get home :) I got some awesome gifts from
them and from others too so thank you so much to those who thought of me!
It REALLY meant a lot! It's crazy this month’s come and gone! I'll hit a
year in no time!! We went caroling this past week and it was so awesome to
see some of these people’s faces when we'd just show up! And we sang them
in Spanish! Oh and my birthday was on Wednesday and we had a
Christmas conference with the whole mission! It was a ton of fun! I saw a
ton of my favorite missionaries and just had a good time. We went to this lady's
house and I had an experience I won't ever forget it was pretty great
hahah!. Then we met up with our recent convert Suamy and went to this
winter wonderland light thing they have here… it was okay hahah. That's
pretty much how my weeks gone.
Love y’all lots! Merry Christmas and happy New Years!

Words From Mom...
I just wanted to say a quick little something about what a wonderful time we had Skyping Tristin on Christmas! Definitely our highlight for the day! He looks and sounds great! We had a lot of laughs and got to hear all about how he is doing. I thought I would include some pictures from our Skype...We had a short little Skype in the morning but since he had a district meeting we scheduled our time with him for in the evening. They didn't have anywhere to go for dinner on Christmas so ended up eating at Jack in the Box but he didn't seem to mind. He looked very happy. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and hope you have a very happy New Year, filled with lots of love and laughter!
