Mom,
Sounds like the holiday season is getting into gear for everybody back home. How comforting.
I think the pabsts were going on a cruise. That might be why they havnt gotten your email.
Im glad the Dubrows will come over on x-mas to talk on the phone. I always look forward to having a lot of people there. This phone call will be weird though. Itll be like right before i see you all in person.
I dont know who would like to be at the airport. i guess it doesnt really matter to me. for me it wont be weird to not be able to hug people, but for them it might be tough hehe. let anybody who wants to be there i guess. whatever you want. There will be a farewell testimony meeting the night before departures. We invite converts and members who we ahve worked with from all over the mission to come to that. I know you arnt planning on coming out here because winter bites for new england tours lol. im not sure what the flight prices are like, but i know Nick will be out of school by then, and if its not too expensive itd be nice to have someone come and meet those people who have been family for the past 2 years. I couldnt be released to Nick, but we could coordinate return flights. But that is jsut a thought/dream. i know its not a whole lot realistic. so no worrys.
What party? We have zone con on the 18th, and all the packages will be handed out by then.
We had a transfer last week, and its been crazy, but president is also allowing others who came out with me to go home on the 21st to be home for school etc. So we have another transfer to work on next week. itll be intense. That is why Elder R. Johnson will be going hom eon that day although we came out with me. the Lord just transfered him to Boston for the last few week sof his mission. Im sure he is going to love that.
Elder Pike is a great missionary. He just get sent to the City. He is originaly called as a cambodian speaking elder, but we have too many of those, so we let him experience cambridge ;) He is doing really well.
This week has been nuts! transfers and all. This upcomming week im going to be on tours all week. literaly, all day every day. from one side of the mission to the other. itll prove to be exciting, fun, and tiring :)
The week after that we have zone con and another transfer/departures. Its weird to think that people who i came out with are already home. weiird.
well. i love you and miss you. ill ttyl!
