Ola!

So this week was way good, I can't quite remember what happened, it just kinda happened, but like, it was good. We had a division which is always a good time. We had the ward Christmas party which might've been my favorite ward Christmas Party I've ever gone to, haha. I also got to sing in the stake choir because my talented companion plays the piano for the choir; I participated in a special musical number so that was fun (aka: horribly nerve racking). Also, we've been able to share so many amazing Christmas messages this week! It's funny how people’s hearts always seem to be a little more open during this season, it really just testifies to me the power and love that our Savior brought into this world. Make sure you are taking time this Christmas season to remember what it's really about and share some of the light that He brings with someone else.

Alo!

Can you believe Christmas is next week! Sometimes life is just so crazy short. Especially when you're so crazy tall. Unless you're Sister Ashby, in which case both you and life are short, haha. This week we had our zone Christmas celebration which included present swapping, weird fruit dessert, the AP's in light up Santa hats and a musical number from yours truly (okay, but publically singing is officially the hardest thing I've had to do on the mission), with the accompaniment of my talented companion of course. But it all ended up being a real blast, testimonies were shared, tears were shed and with all the Christmas cheer, especially in remembrance of the savior's birth, I felt just so completely happy and at peace. You cycle through a lot of different emotions very rapidly on the mission, but I'm so grateful for the joy, spirit and comfort I've come to know on the mission that I don't think I could've found anywhere else. What a truly special and sacred experience it is, especially now during the Christmas season.

Yaaaaaaaaassss (Hiace)

Dearest Family!

Don't tell me you've forgotten all about me already! Haha! Wow this week has been crazy, I think I say that every week but I guess life here just has a habit of being a bit crazy.
