Hello Everyone!
I hope you all had an amazing
Thanksgiving holiday and are getting ready for Christmas day! I love the
Christmas season, everyone is much more charitable and loving. Many
more receptive to the true meaning of Christmas and I just wish you all
the best Christmas season ever, enjoy it!
This week has been a busy one as always, my mind is kind of
blank when I try to think back to what all happened. We had a busy week,
finishing it off with 21 lessons, even with it being a holiday week.
It
was great, I enjoyed 4 meals on Thanksgiving and I didn't think it was
physically possible and I am the first to admit its pretty nasty but... I
weighed myself Thanksgiving morning and then weighed myself that night
after our 4 dinners and I had gained almost 12 pounds! And so my dear
friends... I am getting fat! I wouldn't dare make it public information
how much weight I have gained since coming out on the mission but just
know it has stopped... and I am going to eat right and slim back down,
hold me to it! Haha!
I am in Shelby, Montana (just South of Canada) on exchanges
and currently as I write this letter it is 9 degrees with the wind
blowing at 30 mph and snowing pretty hard. This week it is forecasted
to get down to negative 26 degrees, not counting windchill... Never in my
life have I seen it that cold. All the natives just laugh at me when
they see how cold I am and find out I am from Arizona, they all say,
"Boy, just wait, you have not seen anything yet!" All I can say in
return is..."It is all a part of the adventure!"
I love my mission, it
really is just a big adventure! I love all the missionaries I get to
work with, I love all the people I get to meet, all the food I get to
eat, all the things I get to learn and I love this gospel. I love my
Savior Jesus Christ and know He loves me. He loves all of you!
I love
you all and thank you for your support, remember this time of year what
Christmas is all about! Until next time...
