Week 27: Merry Christmas!

Oh the Christmas season; how wonderful it is!  I've received packages from a bunch of people and letters and emails and I just want to say thank you! I really appreciate it and love all of you!

Dang, what to start with.

Elder Farnsworth is my new companion. He was Elder Goldsberry's companion right before I came into the mission (I replaced him in Maryville). He was also trained by the same person that trained elder Goldsberry which makes him my uncle in the mission which is pretty cool I guess! He's a really hard worker and we have been doing tons of work together. We cleaned out the whole apartment, and by that I mean we scrubbed everything down, like everything! Moved all the furniture and cleaned all of the cupboards and drawers. Basically it's the hardest I've ever worked in my life on cleaning.

His Birthday was 2 days after he arrived in Rockwood and one of the members had him over for a birthday celebration, so that was really cool of them!

We had a Christmas party on Saturday which was really cool. We all got a present from our mission president. It's a really high quality flag, it says "Tennessee Knoxville Mission" on it. It's super cool. I'll send a picture next week.

At the Christmas party we played dodgeball (My zone won) and ate pizza, then we got to watch Big Hero 6, so that was pretty awesome.

Star wars came out last Friday and I'm pretty sad I missed it, although I've heard a few things about it since I didn't care about being spoiled haha. 

Anyways, I have to go pretty soon here so I'll end this one off.

Miss you all!

Love Elder Christmasen
