As I'm pretty sure everyone knows, this Saturday is Christmas and I'm soo excited! We dont get to go home, but we are spedning Christmas with several families and sharing Christmas messages with them all, as well as going Caroling in Huntington, WV. It's gonna be a ton of fun. Also, we're gonna be able to call our families that day so that will be sweet.
Not much has been happening because of the Holidays. Everyone's super busy and so we have plenty of people to go visit after the New Year, but as of right now our teaching pool is low, and we're stuck wearing our pajamas or long-johns under our pants and 2 or more pairs of socks while we tract several hours a day. Also, it seems like several people over have died all at the same time, Portsmouth, just North-West of us, had a Baptism on the 12th, and then that man died just 4 days later. It was crazy. Then we tracted into a lady that same day he died, and talked with her boyfriend at that time. Well, her boyfriend died that night and we found out the next day when we came to visit her for our appointment. THEN, another lady we're trying to go teach had an uncle pass away yesterday, so she asked for a couple days to grieve a bit. Well, we're pretty easy going in the holiday season and so We'll probably visit her after wards.
We're loving the mission life, especially since Elder Moen and I have both have had some sweet food sent to us. I had Nueskees Bacon and Burgers sent to me and we haven't had that good of a burger in a long time, and Elder Moen's sister sent him Cougar Gold Cheese from WSU(maybe? wherever the Cougars are in Washington). Good, good stuff.
Well, I'm always looking forward to letters from friends and family, so don't feel shy to send stuff. I haven't really taken too many pictures lately so their is none to send today.
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
