So I'm super short on time but I will do my best to update you all! First I would like to say I've been out 5 months today! WHAT?! I feel like its been MAYBE a month! How is it already Christmas?! Next week brings in 2015!!!! Where is time going?!
So for Christmas we go caroling as a zone on Mondays. Its an adventure to say the least... Ha but anyway we went on exchanges on Tuesday! It was so AMAZING! I went to Lacey with Sister Dunster (who just happens to be from St. Joseph, Mo. and her home ward is my new ward as my parents just moved in there! Crazy!) We had a great day together. We discovered we know all the same dancers at BYU-I and were even at the same game night without even realizing it. Small world! Somewhere in the 24 hours we were together something clicked for me that I probably won't ever be able to explain but I can say that Grace is real. I am so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who knows exactly what we need and when we need it. Something I've always gotten stuck on is that Grace makes up for the rest after "all we can do". I could never get it out of my head that there was more I could do and I would become frustrated with myself when I fell short. Its so great to know and feel that we don't have to be perfect because we can learn from our imperfections and continue progressing. I love the Savior and His gospel.
Tomorrow is our Christmas party and I'm kind of bummed about how long it is. Its from 9 am to 4pm. That's a long time not to be working. But it'll be fun. I get to see all the missionaries I love (well those still here). Its amazing how random strangers become family within seconds. Even before I know them I love them! I'm out of time though so I'm just going to say I hope this email makes sense and that everyone has a amazing Christ centered Christmas!!!!
Love you all!
