Hello!!!! and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! 

IT WAS SO GREAT TO SEE YOU ON CHRISTMAS!!! i DON'T THINK, WELL YOU PROBABLY DO UNDERSTAND, BUT IT WAS JUST AMAZING TO SEE YOU ALL!!!!! IT WAS SOMETHING i NEEDED SO BADLY!!!! 

SO we had a lot of fun on Christmas it was just really great! after I got out of my boo hoo I miss you mood we were able to play some of the games we got, and just have a great time! I really did feel like I was at lynette's house, that's how the Gimmeson's make me feel! They are just great! I love them! they were so sweet! they gave us each a paparazzi necklace set, and a mug with a picture of us and their kids on it, that says don't forget us when you go home, we love you. It was so sweet! and something I will cherish for the rest of my life! :) The coolest thing they gave us, and I am pretty sure that it was Bro. Gimmeson's idea, was we each got a remote controlled car. yea pretty great huh! I love it! We have already had some pretty epic battles at lunchtime! It's awesome !:) 

Those may be some cool presents, but my favorite present of all time was that calender you made me. It is so precious to me and I love it so much! Thank you for taking the time to make it and put all that hard work and effort and love. It really makes me cry every time I look though it! I can't tell you how much it makes my heart happy! :) 

I have been sick for the last couple of days! I lost my voice Saturday night, and I had to sing in church Sunday morning. it wasn't all gone, but I was able to sing ok. but now I can't talk very loud and it's pretty funny to listen to myself try to talk! :) 

So on Thursday we went to the Faith Hope and Love meeting at the old lady home, and we were sitting there listening and they were talking about how they were saved in their living room and stuff, which worried me, but then the leader asked the golden question."What does latter day saint actually mean" so I was able to teach them the restoration right there. To about 8 old ladies! it was great! I loved that so much!!! 

This week we have been working a lot with members and former's. We went to talk to this former that we had a record for, turns out they had moved, but we talked to the lady that lived there, she had just lost her husband last Christmas and was having a hard time, so we invited her to come to church with us, and she said that she would try to come. she didn't end up coming to church, but when we brought out one of our members, the first thing she said to us was "I know a lady that you talked to the other day." and it was this lady, and she had given her a book of Mormon, and their sons are really close friends. It was a really neat experience, we are going to be working with them to have a dinner at their house so we can teach them! I love when the Lord puts all of his children to work. I am so grateful for the great members in this ward. 

So today sister little and I were able to get massages from a lady in our ward! it felt so great to be able to relax and feel pampered for a few hours! She has offered that once a month while we are still here we can go back and get them! :) 

Sister Little and I are doing well, I'm really glad for the time we have been able to spend together. I don't know what the Lord has planned for us after the transfer, but whatever he decides I will be alright with whatever happens! 

I hope you have a wonderful week! I love you all and have a happy new year tomorrow !:)

Thank you everyone for remembering me this Christmas.  I really appreciate the gifts and words of encouragement.   I love you all.
