Merry Christmas

December 27,2010

Merry Christmas! I hope your Christmas was as wonderful as mine! This Christmas really was amazing. I might have missed being away from home and such, but the MTC made sure to make it great. We had a fireside on Christmas eve which was followed by popcorn and the movie Mr. Kruger's Christmas. Then Christmas morning was a talent show, which ended up taking almost an hour longer than it was supposed to, but three elders in our zone performed and they were all really amazing. Then we had "Christmas dinner" at noon and made sack meals to eat for dinner so that no one had to work in the cafeteria. Following dinner we had an amazing devotional by Elder Nelson. He and his wife actually spent the entire weekend at the MTC, coming to the Christmas fireside that night and talking to us in Relief Society and Priesthood the next day. We then had time that was supposed to be set aside for writing families, but because we leave today we ended up spending it packing our suitcases and trying our hardest to figure out how to make things weigh less than they actually do. Finally- we had the Christmas Night Fireside- a presentation of A Christmas Carol by two performers, one playing scrooge and the other playing everything else. It was really neat!
