the morning we had a nice short sacrament meeting, following which I
passed out my personal stash (a little help on the spelling Mom) of
candy canes to the members. They all thought I was pretty cool, so that
was nice. After that, the Swenson family was nice enough to let us come
over to skype home. That was really fun. Enjoyed some nice laughs with
the family. It was kinda weird to see them. They all are starting to
look a lot different haha. Everyone is going to be completely different
when I get back, I'm sure. But anyways that was the highlight for sure.
After that we just maxed and relaxed a little bit. Took a nice nap, made
a snack, the whole 9. In the evening, we went to a couple dinners with
members and chatted with them for a while, which was pretty fun. All and
all it was a good day. And just like that, my first Christmas away from
home is in the books. It was kinda fun and home didn't seem that far
away. But it was different that's for sure. But it is so rewarding to
know that I am doing something that makes my family proud, among many
other reasons. So this is definitely a great experience and I wouldn't
trade it for anything. I just wish I had more time to email haha.

could find a way to send them back to me and I can replace them.
Everything looks and fits great. The shoes are awesome. Those are by far
the best dress shoes I have ever owned. Thank you so much.
The Elmo pajamas are in honor of your sister
Yes I know. Tell her that I plan on wearing them at least for a while
haha.
What else did you do today?
Maxed and relaxed. Ate a couple dinners with the members, chatted with
them, and that was about it. Played with the Nerf hoop too.
I was going to ask you about your towels and bedding today. Are the
ones you have ok?
I'll probably replace my towels in a couple weeks. Other than that I'm
cool.
