Fiesta de Navidad

First of all I am training!! I picked up my greenie at transfers Tuesday.  His name is Elder Jones and he is from Salinas, CA.  (Note from mom: we found out today that due to some emergency transfers Elder Jones will be moved to another area and Elder Blackham will be getting another "greenie" to train so stay posted next week for news about another new companion.)

This week our ward had a giant Christmas party! There was a huge dinner and a giant nativity that the primary and the youth put together.
Christmas party!
This week we meet some amazing people! One day as we were knocking doors a family opened the door and let us in. We shared a message with them about the spirit of Christmas and the true meaning! They were super awesome and invited us back another day to share another message with them! 
The other night we were going around and once again knocking on some doors. We were not having lots of success but then we knocked a door and my companion said, "we want to sing to you today" 😂😂 so we sang a Christmas song just the two of us! I know it definitely sounded bad and very far from professional but they let us share a message with them!! This was very powerful and I learned to always be trying something different. And even if you're uncomfortable just keep going because people love change!! 
Decorations! People go all out here!
