Just One Week Until Christmas!

Hi Family...

just one more week!!! so next week, i wont be sending an email on 
wednesday,(this week has been madness so that is why im writing today) but ill 
probably send a little email saying when ill call and all that good stuff. i 
still dont know the number that you guys will need to call cause i im probably 
gonna get transfered 3 days before christmas but ill let ya know for sure. ill 
do the little call also from one of the public phones in the street to confirm 
that everything is good also but once again im not sure when... but dont get 
worried or anything about staying in the house for ever just waiting for a call 
cause ill find a way to get a hold of someone.
im excited to get to talk to you guys again! ill do my best to get the right
number to yall this time. dont want some poor brazilian lady to get scared
recieving a call that she has no idea what is going on....!

tomorrow is our christmas conference with the whole 
mission together. lots of fun things planned and im especially excited to get 
the pictures and letters that you guys have sent. i hope that they have already 
gotten there. takes about two weeks for anything to get here! and because im in 
the interior its even longer for the letters to get out to us. this week was a 
really busy one!! me and my comp have been responsible for getting 2 zones that 
are out here in the boonies back to Curitiba. we have been running behind trying 
to get a bus to get us there all week. in the end all is well and were gonna get 
there with out any problems. i cant believe that it is  christmas already!!!! 
this month is just a trucking by!!

thats awesome that you guys had a family night with the talbots!!
who all went besides you, mom?? i hope that they liked 
the movie and that you guys were able to have some fun.

that really is a miricle that ty´s teeth weren't all to bad.
he will be able to get hopefully most of the 
work done with on the christmas break and not have to miss to
much school. the wisdom teeth thing isnt to bad ty,
dr naylor does a good job and you ll probably 
be out for the whole thing. mom, remember when i got my teeth
pulled and how i was all drugged up and i wouldnt leave the
office with out telling dr naylor that he did a good job and that
he knew what he was doing?? pretty funny.
tell all the families that have sent me a little dinherio (money)
thanks for the support and ya i think that it would be best if you just
put it in my account and when i need it ill be able to pull it out. 

today were gonna do a service project at an old folks home for
christmas. were planning on singing a few songs and then just talking
with them a little about their life stories.
i should have learned some of those funny songs that loyal always sings 
so i could sing for them like he does back home. i know that there gonna like to 
just talk with us and share some experiences. ill let ya know how it went next 
week.
i love you guys!! i hope that all is going well in this wonderfull 
christmas time of year. the spirit of christmas is something that we need to 
keep with us all year long. have a good week and try to keep an update on the 
internet to get all the details.

feliz natal hien!!
