12/24/19 - "I rip off the wrapping and tear through the box till I end up with 45 new pairs of socks."

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE!

I hope y'all have been having the best Christmas and enjoy all the wonderful time with family! I may not be with my family, but I've been enjoying my time with my missionary family 😊 
I hope you all remember how special your families are and are grateful for the time you get to spend with them, even if holidays can be kind of crazy. My companion and I have talked a lot recently about how easy it can be to get caught up in family drama or crazy holiday schedules. Now, all we'd like is to just be able to be with our families for Christmas because that's the part that really matters. However, I'm so grateful to be here on a mission and this has been one of the best Christmas seasons of my life. ❤

This week's subject line is from the song "Peppermint Winter" by Owl City and refers to the fact that I got SO MANY SOCKS this year. So shoutout to all the wonderful people who gave me socks! Also shoutout to all the wonderful people who gave me anything at all 💚 Also, shoutout to all the wonderful people who just exist because I love you all tons!

Sister Hines and I had an odd week of sleeping a lot because we spent much of the week sick with stomach viruses (Sister Hines) and infected ears (Sister Bliss aka me). But we're mostly all better and I can almost hear normally again! 

I love you all and will give an update of how my Christmas went when I email next week! Remember that Christ is the reason for the season 💚🎄💚

Love,
Sister Bliss 

PICTURES:
*Me and some of the Sisters in our district when we got together to make a bunch of cookies to give to people we're teaching
*Me with one of the many pairs of socks I recieved this week!
*Then two pictures from Christmas Conference that I didn't include last week. One is us with most of our district minus one set of sisters. The other is a big group of us who came out of the MTC together because a lot of us were at the same christmas conference and coordinated to all wear green because we started spreading the word about a month in advance 😂
