This week was pretty boring actually. Well, not boring for me but nothing really changed so I don't really have a whole lot to tell you! I'm still loving the Chinese and...

WAIT! I FORGOT TO TELL YOU ABOUT CHRISTMAS!

Ok, so last Thursday the 25th, (it was a long time ago, that's why I forgot) our zone threw Christmas! We made a Christmas tree out of all the cardboard boxes that we get and some left over paper towel rolls! Our whole zone did a Secret Santa with each other that night and one of our Elders, Elder Council got a full Santa suit so that morning we went caroling to breakfast! Hahaha it was fantastic! When you're stuck in here for eternity you find ways to keep yourself entertained! It was great! I have some pictures that I can send.

Anyway, the Chinese is great and I'm really starting to get teaching down pretty well, I can actually joke around with one of our investigators when I mess up now! And let me tell you, there are way too many easy ways to mess up in Chinese! One little tone change can make my sentence of God gave Joseph Smith the priesthood to God gave Joseph Smith reproductive organs! Hahahah whoops! Yes, I did that on accident... But I did get the whole first vision memorized! That is exciting!

I'm happy and the work is going well! Everyday my testimony just grows more and more! Sorry this week's letter is kind of short, I have plenty of time I just don't have a lot to say! We got new teachers again! We keep losing our favorite ones, but we just barely got a new teacher that is so awesome! He's the one that I could tell jokes to and stuff! Hahaha

Well, I know this church is true, I know that families are forever. The power that that one sentence can have is incredible.  That is one of the strongest truths that we have on this Earth. I love you all and I'll keep writing even if we don't have much going on!

Love you all!
