Hello everyone!!!

It's not Christmas just yet but........MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This week was pretty fun! We actually had a pretty usual week for missionaries, nothing to apocalyptic happening during regular pros!

The thing that really made the week really crazy and fun was the Branch's Christmas Program that happened just this Saturday!!

Since I sang a song for the Thanksgiving program, and they liked it...I was put to sing about 3-4 songs. (I was at first working with a Hermana to sing the 4th, but last minute she got the confidence to do it herself). And to add to it, all of them were in Spanish...:p Some of them were pretty intense in English, now to add Spanish craziness to that!

So throughout the week, I was trying to find time here and there to get this stuff down. And some songs were practiced...and others...were more of a first time seeing them an hour before the program started. But that was more de to the fact that the piano part was pretty crazy, and the pianist was only available then.

The program went really well! All the missionaries were dressed in shepherd's clothing. Some given beards (had fun with those one's)!! And the activities director also pulled out the biggest donkey on wheels in the world!! It was super fun during and afterwards for pictures. (One of the Hermanas was Mary and my companion was Joseph...really funny to watch!!).

We sang (in Spanish): Mary did you know, His Hands, What Child is This, and No Greater Hero.

AWESOME!!!!

!!!!AND!!!!

After one of our normal days. We walked into our house (which is in the downstairs of a member's home), and we saw some boxes in the middle of the room. They bought us a CHRISTMAS TREE!!!!!!!! ...really made my day right there!! A Huge picture of Jesus on my desk and a awesome Christmas tree. things look and feel just a little more Christmas'y round here now!! 

the week has been pretty good! I dont have too much in the letter due to some things I have to have done this day. (My family will get to find that one out!!). But I love you all! Miss you!
