Christmas

So yesterday was Christmas, it was pretty fun.  We opened up a lot of ties and we also got some nice other things.  Thank you all so much for being so thoughtful and thinking of me this Christmas.  This week was really cool.  We had a trip up to Fort Lauderdale, where we got to see all the missionaries.  For Thursday we had to ride up on Wednesday, and come back Friday, so it was a real trip.  It was awesome to see all the missionaries, and to recieve some training.  We also got to play white elephant.  It was fun.  I brought up a gorilla head made out of a coconut.  It was cool.  Elder Badillo brought up a sling shot that said Ammon on it, so it was legit.  I had to steal everytime in the game because no one else was stealing, so I had to get it going.  It was fun, but I ended up with 4 cans of Tuna.  It was pretty funny, and we also got to sing songs.  Our Zone sang, Oh Holy Night in Espanol.  It was super cool and spiritual.  The other zones were good too, but Im pretty sure we were the best.  So we got back safely, and I was able to talk to my family on Skype yesterday.  It was pretty exciting, but short.   Now I feel pretty focused on the work now that I done that and have some good work to do.  Thankyou all so much for your love and support and for all you do for me.  I know this church is true and that the Lord blesses each and everyone of us according to our obedience.  He is watching us and waiting for us to call upon him.  Jesus Christ is our Savior and he suffered the atonement that we can return and live in the Kingdom of God.  Thank you all so much, and I love you.
