Holidays..

we basically partied all week this week. only had like four lessons...

sucked. i hated it.

it was fun tho we had christmas at the senior couples house and new years with the other elders. New years night in russia means four hours of pure fireworks. i thought we were getting bombed... its crazy.

then we ate a lot of food. 

with armanians. i love armanians.

I saw the nutcracker this week. It was way good. Ballerinas are pretty.

thats all for now... sorry  for not writing more. 

Umm...

I can never figure out a good subject line.

So Christmas was awesome. best part was getting to see my family. Hunter is stylish, jake is Huge, My dad is gandalf, my mom is a superhero and mady and cory are...

Hey cory... yur mom.

love you.

Anyway I feel bad that i dont get to write all of you personally each week. Its way good to hear from you guys especially the family. That means you Dano, and my brothers.

this week i want to talk about how great it is to have the priesthood and to be able to give blessings. I gave my district leader a blessing this week because we was struggling. sometimes the work gets to ya. anyway i just have the hugest testimony of Blessings under the authority of god by the laying on of hands.

for those of you who arent LDS a blessing is an ordinace in which a man who is authorized to speak and act in the name of Jesus christ blesses a person by putting his hands on the persons head, speaking in the name of jesus christ. (i know that was vague, for a better definition look it up on LDS.org)

Anywho, i know that the blessing helped elder beils and i feel way blessed to be the one he asked to give the blessings. that makes two times that a district member has turned to me for a blessing. Its really cool to be the one people turn to for help. Makes me feel like a true disciple of christ.

All is good here. its not even cold.

Russia with love.
