Week 101

Christmas was awesome!! I'm just going to send a bunch of pictures cuz it takes a while...

Here are some of the kids we gave gifts to, me wrapping some gifts, Christmas party at our ward, and some dinners members shared with us. It might have been the fullest I've ever been in my life, it seriously hurt to walk afterwards.

We also had a Christmas party just for missionaries with both the Praia and Assomada zones combined, I finally saw Mcmullin! He's up in Assomada. I took pics with him but they're in my camera, all these pics are from Nevilles camera so I'll send them next week. 

Week 100

I will start Skyping at 6 here in the Verde, so that'll be like what, 12 or 1 over there? So that's settled.
Man, I'm super excited to call you guys this week. I'm also gonna be skyping Burch and Chevy haha so I'm excited for them too.
I actually bought a bunch of gifts already for the Santa thing, I made a deal with a Chinese lady at the store so if I bought like more than 20 toys I have like a 40% off on everything so I only spent like 30 bucks, but I can always buy more. There are so many kids here in Praia that could use them, it's really sad cuz there are also really rich people living in the same streets.
I go home in 8 weeks... it's depressing but super exciting at the same time. I really want to work hard these last few weeks, but I"m just really tired lol. So the "get Zuniga sexy" program didn't run too smoothly because we fasted for an investigator and I got a sore throat during the same day, so it made me feel super weak for a couple of days, but we are back on track now. I'm going to be working out as much as I can so I don't get made fun of that much by everyone lol.

Week 49, Being Santas

Hey what's up! Sorry for emailing super late, we were doing service in one of the member's house so now I only have 30 minutes to talk. 

So anyway, Christmas was sick! I'm not gonna lie, we didn't get home till like midnight on Christmas Eve because Gooch and I bought a TON of gifts for everyone we knew and we took forever wrapping them and giving them out. 

This is our room, btw, it has been like this since I got here, the only lights we have are christmas lights, haha. 

And this is us being Santas. Our bags were FULL of things to give away. 

We both spent about $70 each on gifts, and all of the kids we gave things to it was their only Christmas gift they received. These are about half of the gifts we wrapped. 

So we were super tired the next day because we got home at midnight and then stayed up till like 4 watching movies and then woke up at 6 as a normal day.
