Crazy they are dividing the ward!!! I didn't know Osmond got so big!!! Crazy stuff happening down there! Well Things have been awesome here, the members have scheduled a lot of our appts so we just have to show up, we will have to go on splits this week more than likely, which is good to be that busy but kinda stressful cuz we have to find 2 ladies that will be able to. We have 2 baptisms on Saturday so that is super exciting. their names are Yolanda and Quner. way sweet ladies from the Micronesian islands. We found 4 new investigators last week 2 with a date and we'll get the other 2 when we teach them later this week. So the work here has been awesome. I got a package from Grandma last week. Tell her THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!! I LOVED everything in it and the cardigan fits perfectly!!! So the weather here is always 70-90 degrees BUT in the church it's like 40.... they CRANK up the AC!!! We freeze in there. It's so so so so cold so we always have to wear jackets/cardigans to church. So I was extremely excited to get a new one! And socks! ha, you wouldn't think we'd get cold here but we do! Brittney Smith sent me a lil package too. it was so nice!!! So thank you all!!!! Mom I'll let you know when i get the package. It doesn't feel like Christmas at all... people have their lights up and everything but with it being no snow I feel like it's still summer. Mom I can't wait for you and dad to come back with me and see this place!! You will love it! So save up your pennies cuz you both are going to come with me.... I'll find a way to get my own ticket so just worry about yourselves! So The Tongan ward Christmas party was on Friday... and Tongans know how to party! There was choke food and after they had a dance... the whole time music just blaring... we didn't know if we should stay or go. They told us we had to be there, and you don't' want to offend Tongans. It was like giving an alcoholic a drink and telling him not to drink it. I love music and dancing and I just had to sit there.... ug. But we did have 2 investigators there and picked up 2 so it was really good and everyone had a good time. The Bishops daughter (2 years old) danced the hula with some of the other members. I recorded it so I'll try to send it to you. It was the cutest thing ever. It's been a crazy but good week. The people are awesome and everyone is really nice even if they aren't interested so it's good. Anyway, Hows the weather? You have lots of snow? I hear ya'll been having storms lately. Sorry about Daniel.... that would be hard. Study Christlike Attributes, I think they'll help give you strength. they have me for sure! lol. I would probably kick that boys butt if i were home so I give you and Ryan props for doing your best with it. You'll have to let me know who the new bishopric is, I think change is exciting. ha, you and Kirsten would do good on a mission.... change is exciting but I even had a hard time leaving my area and coming here.... but I like to move as ya'll know. Well let me see if I can attach that video and pics for you. okay hopefully they work... That huge ring I got from the Tongan Party... pretty sweet huh?! Then there was this one day it rained like crazy so we got to wear our rain coats.... very exciting. The last is just a pic of us with the sunset. Well hope you are doing great!!!! love hearing from ya... still don't know wha time I'll be calling but I'll let you know! I'm so excited to talk to everyone!!!!!!! :) LOVE YOU!
