Monday December 29, 2014 Halle, Germany


Willkommen (welcome) Winter! 

Well, Even though it’s only been a couple days since I emailed you, a lot has happened...

Samstag, we discovered that we have fruit flies in our kitchen. We had 1 one day, and the next day like 20! Awesome! If you could look up how to kill those for me, that would be great! Also, the weather decided to drop like 20 degrees and stay that way, so now I'm freezing! However...I wore Brittney's thermals that are like an inch thick and they were glorious! Tell her thanks for me! We had an investigator tüsch us (tell us he didn't want to meet) this day. He just wants peace for his country (Iran) and he said we can’t give that to him. So we just told him that if he had interest again he was welcome to meet with us again. I'm almost thankful that he did this, because why waste our time with people who aren't progressing and interested! He's awesome, and of course I'm sad, but I'm glad we aren't wasting our time anymore. We do still have someone on baptism date! We meet with him again this week!  I also have written down on here that I made mashed potatoes...which I did! And they were SOO good! Thanks dad for teaching me how to make those. Usually my companion cooks (because she likes it) and I do the dishes (because it was a compromise and I would rather do that than cook). But I do cook sometimes! I cook breakfast...like a piece of toast with peanut butter on it like every day! So, to say the least I can cook...I just don't like to! 

Sonstag, again was SOO cold! My hands were FROZEN! People should hibernate during the winter!!! We also had some microwave popcorn that Joni (member of the ward) gave us, and we watched one of two movies that we are allowed to watch, so Legacy or The Testament in German for language study. We do this every Sunday! So pretty much I have carried on the movie tradition! Those movies are soo funny especially in German! The words and the voices don't match up at all and it’s SO funny! We also went through our area book because it was a mess! There were dead records in there from like a year ago that people hadn't moved over! People are lazy sometimes! 

Montag, heute, we got up, worked out, studied, cleaned and organized! Which was AWESOME! We got rid of SO much unneeded stuff! Oh our apartment is SOO clean! By the way, I do not know how me or my companion still have hair on our heads, because when we clean it’s like piles and piles of hair! Like what the heck?! How in one week do we lose that much hair! Oh, also, it snowed about 3 inches today! Everything looks SO much prettier! But now we have to trudge through the snow for the rest of the winter...so that awesome! I'm just glad that we don't have to drive in it! Especially up by our house at home! 

Well, not much more to update you on! Love you guys so much! I will send some pictures! 

Love you! 
Me and a bunch of food that we got for Christmas! Look at the HUGE chocolate bar that I'm holding! It has an sheet of oreos inside of it!
A member also gave us umbrellas! Or a regen schem!  (something like that, it means rain shield though!) We have about 12 in our apartment now!
So we went finding in the HUGE park, kind of like central park, except not that huge. Anyways, there were tons of ducks and swans!
 Also, in the Peißnitz there is this bridge! 
 
The trees lit up! Horrible picture, and it wont let me send videos...so that sucks.
 This says kiss me, I'm a want-a-be Porsche! Just notice that its a Kia! SO funny!! 
Problem...solved! 
This is my favorite sign in Halle!
 This is our Walmart! It's awesome! 
This is me by this tree by our chruch! I really like it!
