haha i only put that title cause i have had that song stuck in my head ALL WEEK! 

this year, strangely, it really does feel like Christmas. it seems a lot happier than last year. I'm loving it. i got your guys`s and granny`s package this week. thank you guys!!! i have a question about it tho that i will ask you this Friday!

oh and i got my hijo!!! his names Elder Dawson from Queen Creek Arizona. hes great! its been super fun being with him this week for all the Christmas stuff we`ve been doing. sadly we haven't been in our area to work hardly at all. but it was basically this way last Christmas too. i just told him this is the weirdest time to start the mission and that we are normally in our area teaching all day every day. but ya know, its fun to have fun.

the president was hear again on Saturday! we had a conference and then a bunch of activities! there was a talent show and with going to Medellin and everything that was going on i didn't really have anything prepared, but pretty much no one wanted to do anything so they asked me to sing something but i didn't have my guitar... luckily another elder had one. but it was like a cheesy walmart one. and i didn't wanna sing a slow boring song. so i rocked Santana on a children's guitar, and then they told me to sing more cause there were literally no acts... i loved it. honestly, made me miss performing A TON. but yeah.. that went down. haha.

well, i hope EVERYONES Christmas is amazing. and that everyone can remember our Savior Jesus Christ, and His love and His Meekness and Humility. Remember that He did it for you. Remember that you owe Him everything. Give back. Love. Share. and Smile. overall be happy. and don't miss me! haha. i am here doing EXACTLY what i want to be doing. i love you all, and i love our Heavenly Father and His Son. 

Merry Christmas.

See y'all on Friday at 5 my time. if any plans change i will call moms cell ahead of time :)
