Thanksgiving!

Hey y'all! I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving! Like I said last week I love hearing from everyone so don't forget to tell me how thanksgiving was for y'all and what your plans are for Christmas!

My thanksgiving was amazing! First we had breakfast at the wheelers house with the other set of elder in our district. It was really fun! They gave us a whole bunch of food including biscuits and gravy! After breakfast they should us their VR video game set which is one of those goggle things that you put over your eyes and it's like your in the game playing! They showed us Minecraft and it was super cool! In the game we flew up high in the sky and dropped down back to the earth and it actually felt like I was free falling! It was really cool! After that, their son took us to this really cool dock that snaked through a swamp! It was raining though so we didn't see any gators or snakes but he said we could come back on a pday when it's warm outside and we could see tons of gators and poisonous snakes! I'm super excited! The dock also went out about 200 yards into the saint Johns river so we are also planning on going fishing there on a pday too!

For lunch we went to the Jarvis's house and she is a super good cook! She cooked us deep fried turkey and it was delicious! I've never had a better tasting thanksgiving! (Sorry mom) After lunch we played a few board games with them and then we played soccer in their backyard. They had a pretty big soccer field back there so it was pretty fun! For dinner we went to the Rivera's house who is our ward mission leader. They are Puerto Rican so we had some Puerto Rican food and it was really good too! We also played a fun scripture trivia game with them that really tested out knowledge bout the scriptures but I definitely learned a lot from it! He said he would bring it to our meetings and we could play a little after the meetings haha! The riveras are literally the best family ever though! They are like my parents out here in Fleming island they do everything for us. I hope he stays as ward mission leader forever while I'm here!

This whole week we've been sharing with people the new light of the world initiative this year. It's basically the same thing they did last year except with different things for each day so make sure that y'all follow the best you can to the calendar and you will see the happiness and love of Christ everyday this Christmas season which, let's be honest, is the best thing to have for Christmas. Spread the joy! Light the world! Feel the love of Christ! I love you all and I hope y'all have an amazing holiday!

Love,
