Skying was so cool guys! I'm happy that everyone could be there! Except
Matt. It's a bummer he had to work. But I'll see him soon. I missed your
beautiful faces you glorious people. I really enjoyed it! Now we only
have to wait 9 more days! If we want to plan on going back, I would love
to give your the tour of as much of Germany as I know haha. We'd have
to go to Hamburg, Rostock, Berlin, and a day trip down to Hof haha. (you
only need a day to see stuff down here.)
Actually, the countryside is
like really cool looking down here. So much an official visit to the
'Vogtland'. But good, we'll plan on coming back to Germany. I missed the
Christmas traditions we usually do. Like BAGELS! Oh my gosh I miss
bagels. Can we have bagels on the Sunday morning when I'm back. Please?

| Hof at Christmas |
The week was pretty good for us. We had p-day, and
then 3 days of holiday. Germans take Christmas seriously. It is three
solid days of nobody on the streets. And it is strongly discouraged to
go door to door by the mission. Sooooo....I studied a lot. We deep
cleaned to apartment too! That was good. On Tuesday we went to the
Montgomery's and ate sausage and potato salad and played games. Then we
met with Sister S and taught her and went back the the Monty's to
Skype. That is when I saw you. It was such a wonderful time to see you
all and Rachel too! Blessings. Wednesday we ate at Sister E's house
and she made many a duck for us. Like 3 or something. With Rotkohl and
Klösen. Perfect. Then we had a cool lesson with a man named A. He's
the coolest man from Iraq. He wanted to be baptized into a christian
church. We're going to help with that. Then he came to church on Sunday.
SOLID. He really liked it. Bruder L was also there at church, which
was pretty cool. We ate with the G's on Sunday, which was just
a hoot. They're a funny family. It was a good week! Like seriously.
And the biggest news, Elder Donner and I will
receive a new companion haha. Today actually we're picking Elder
Stoddard up from Bahnhof. He's super cool and we both know him. We're
going to have to show him Hof before we leave on Sunday. We're both
super excited. It's be a love triangle.
