It was great talking with the family on Christmas day, sorry we had problems with the computers. I intended to call on time.
One of the problems was that I totally forgot my Skype account name and passward so I had to get on to Elder Banegas' account to call.
It was also crazy and totally predictable that Lindsay got engaged over Christmas! She sent me the story, pretty cool stuff!
Christmas was pretty fun here, we had a big dinner party with all 250 missionaries in the mission in the Kennedy Stake Center where I got to see all my old companions and friends. We also had a big ward Christmas party where we sang a Spanish Christmas rendition of The Lion Sleeps Tonight that we wrote, it was pretty stinking brilliant! Elder Rallison will go as far as to say inspired.
To recap some things that I madtioned in the call: I made Banana Pancakes on Christmas Morning with Ariana De Platano (Banana flour) and little bits of chopped up bananas. It was bacically the best thing ever! I couldn't help but humming Jack Johnson.
Other things happened too...
Also, someone asked in our Skype call if we had Eggnog here. We never really found any, BUT Elder Taylor looked up the recipe and made some! It was some good stuff, not perfect, but it was good.
We're waiting to see what happens on New Years this week, we here that it's "apocalíptico" and we got a message from the Assistants saying that we were to "BE IN THE HOUSE BEFORE 9PM"
From what I heard, people take their little paper statues out onto the streets and light them on fire. Some of these statues are ten feet high, and the fireworks are also supposed to be crazy! We will wait and see. :D
I'll talk to you all next week!
