Happy New Year everybody!

This week was a slow one because both me and my companion had a sinus infection all week.  On Wednesday it was New Year's eve so we had to be in our apartment at 6:00, so we got together with the Spanish missionaries and the sisters living in the apartment building and we played Monopoly and Risk until 10:00 which was really fun.

On Thursday we had to bring mattresses to the Bushwick, Brooklyn apartment because they had a little bit of a bedbug situation over there.  The rest of the week was kind of slow since we both got sick and we didn't want to spread the sickness all over the mission.

Today for p-day we are going to the Brooklyn bridge.

I hope everyone had a good Christmas.  We visited a bunch of members and ate a lot of food.  It was great.  It was also nice to skype home.  Thanks for all the Christmas cards.  It was nice.

Right before church I was asked if I could bear my testimony for five minutes.  Good thing I am sort of able to do that now.

I helped clean out a missionary apartment for the first time which was pretty interesting.  We had to move everything out of the apartment and then deep clean it.  It took all day.  We also drove all the way down to Plainview to drop of Christmas packages for the Christmas concert we had.  There were so many packages that it filled up the twelve passenger van.

I hope everyone has a happy New Year this week.
