"He is the funniest one ..."

Hello World!

Coming up now on week 5 of the transfer.  In other words, just 2 short weeks before my life will probably change again!  I'm anxious this time, unlike last time, statistics say one of us will leave, and it will probably be me. 

Pretty hard week, except we found a family last night!  We only had a few minutes to talk, but we have a return appointment for tonight, so I'm very excited for that :)

This morning I was going to have breakfast, but then I realized I was totes out of milk.  So I thought about my predicament long and hard, and then I realized the obvious solution! "Elder B! you wanna make me breakfast?" 

But for some reason he didn't want to.  Remember the good old days, when all I had to do was just wake up at a decent hour and Mom would make breakfast usually?  Wish I didn't take that for granted. The point here being, I'm hungry.

Also, I'm so happy that it's practically Christmas!  I'm so excited to have Christmas in the mission field, what a wonderful day it will be!  Elder B and I have started listening to Christmas music in the car the past couple days, so our holiday spirits are alllll ready!  I'm hoping for a white Christmas, so pray for us! (NOTE: please do NOT pray for excessive snow and an ice storm like the first week of my mission.  just some pretty white snow that will look nice in pictures, and I can frolick in while we tract.)

Oh hey guess what? remember DeeDee?  She was baptized a couple months ago?  Just want to say that she is coming actively to church every week, and has a calling to be the ward greeter, she passes out programs to those entering the chapel.  She does such a wonderful job.  Please pray for her; every new member faces challenges and she is doing such a good job.   :)  We're excited to go to the temple with her next year!

Overall, we don't have much success to report on this week, a lot of long days.  But we have smiley little faces, and faith that things will work out.  :) 

Love,

Chase

 PS, If you have a chance in your personal study, I recommend reading from the Gospel of John.  He is the funniest one as far as I'm concerned.
