This week was awesome! To start it off we had Zone Conference in which we acted out the nativity and everything fun like that. Then we played soccer! After that we had a ton of fun leading up to Christmas! For Christmas Eve we went to a friends house where we ate seafood as it is a traditional thing! it was my first time eating straight from a clam which was an interesting thing, hahaha! Then on Christmas we went with all of the other elders to play some ping pong, then we got to Skype home! The best part! The call went by super fast and afterward I was feeling a bit out of it and couldn't stop thinking of home, so we got home anyway and made some food and went to bed. The next day was rough! We went with the other Anziani to watch a movie and relax but then that night we were supposed to work again, when we got home we started to do our planning but we both felt that it wasn't the right thing to do. Neither one of us were not able to concentrate. My comp and I had already gotten into to our warm pajamas and my companion said we should go outside and do some finding. I told him I really didn't want to but I had the same prompting. So we got back into our missionary attire, put on our scarfs and gloves and walked out into the freezing cold. We started off great and talked to everyone we saw outside. Everyone we talked to said they want to meet with us again! After about forty five minutes of success it started to get really windy and started hailing like the size of golf balls! We were still like a half hour away from the house so we started to run home, which was crazy because the hail was totally nailing our heads and we were like screaming throughout the streets and laughing. Then the lightning started hitting within a mile from us and it was the loudest and brightest thing ever! After we got home we were still laughing and had forgotten about our laziness and homesickness! It was really a great experience to see that when we follow His promptings, we are blessed in multiple ways. Well I hope everyone has some Happy Holidays!
