Anyway, I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas with the other missionaries here in New Caledonia. Christmas Eve we played games and sports and ate Hawiian Haystacks and then Christmas Day we watched the First Presidency's Christmas Devotional, sang lots of songs together, and had a secret Santa gift exchange. It was a great time getting to be with my mission family and spend time with them.
I also got to Skype with the family, and my girlfriend (she's waited 13 months, she earned it). It was amazing getting to see them and just talk with everyone again. They are seriously the best.
We also had the oppourtunity with the quartet to go and sing at the "maison de Pere Noel" and then at Place des Cocotiers, two big attractions during Christmastime. There were groups of missionaries there for the 4 days leading up to Christmas, and we got lots of great exposure and the chance to talk with many people, and above all else, we #littheworld.
The only bad part about the holidays is that a lot of the people we've been working with have left for the holidays. But that's ok, we just keep trying to find people, and we've been catching up on the bureau work we've gotten behind on because of the holidays.
I hope everyone's Christmas was merry and that this next year will be amazing for you. I would encourage you all to turn to your Heavenly Father in prayer and ask him what your resolutions should be for this year, and He'll let you know, and provide the way to accomplish those goals.
Love you all!
