Afterwards we had interviews with president and crazy stuff man! So my trainee seriously hurt her back a year ago and was a solider but at the start of the transfer it was causing lots of problems so with talking to president and the mission home for a few weeks they have decided it's best for her to go home and get surgery. So i am getting taken out of Elgin and put in a new area in a trio. but president has no idea where yet so we are still waiting to find that out. so while we are here we are just going to continue to teach our friends and then tell them we are leaving and then pass them to the next missionaries. SOooo i don't know where i will be for christmas but it will be an adventure!
There is this family here called the Dawsons and they were planning on having us over for christmas eve, christmas and boxing day (the day after christmas) and when we told her we weren't gonna be here she was way sad and then invited us for dinner last night. And we showed up and she had made a really nice dinner and had taken out all her christmas dishes and her christmas tablecloth that she only ever takes out for christmas day and we used all that for dinner it was so cute! then we shared with them our christmas message that we were saving for christmas and it he spirit was very strong, it was a fun night:) We also set up their Christmas tree.
We had the chance to teach some of our friends this week and at one of their homes they gave us apple juice from there own apple tree that they made themselves. it was way good! We taught this couple in their 60s that we met while at the resource center that we volunteer at. it was so fun! we were able to teach them the first lesson.
