Buenos días mi familia y amigos! Today is now p-day! A day early?! No way! My p-day out in Vegas is Tuesday so I am writing my last email of the MTC today! Crazy to think two months of my mission is already gone and over, and I'm still sitting in my bed at my house?! Weird. But, I am a pro packer because I fit everything I need in my suitcases and had a ton of room. So of course I tried to fill the space with more fun but totally unrelated goodies and random stuff. However, I still have room in my suitcases! So hopefully that is a good thing!
Christmas was about two days after my p-day so you will get lots of Christmas pictures today! We had a blast doing Christmas at home. We did all of our usual traditions and I got a lot of very practical suitcase worthy gifts. Megan got me a ring light for videos and we took a photo shoot with it today! We got lots of new games and spent the afternoon playing them all. I also got to watch the new Soul movie! Had to get one more in before I headed out!
The last day of MTC (or so we thought) was the 26th!!! We said our goodbyes, had an amazing testimony meeting and watched some very embarrassing videos full of our class time shenanigans. No one wanted to be the first to leave so we all sat on the call until someone took one for the team. We all texted our goodbyes in the group chat and thought that we were done.... until Monday morning when we got a message saying we had class!!! Ahhhhhh! All plans for the day went out the window and we had both our morning and night class on Monday too! Luckily I am not leaving until tomorrow so I didn't have to worry as much as some other people! It was fun to have one more class, even though it really messed up plans. Everyone told me to buckle up because this is how missions are, flying by the seat of your pants!!! Ahhhh!
Today is family day! I went and got my nails done with Megan, went out to my favorite Mexican restaurant for lunch with everyone, and later we have a pizza and movie night planned to get one more in before I hit the mission field. It feels like the days go by slow but the weeks go by so fast! I'm glad I get this extra day to say goodbye to my family and spend time with them before I officially head out.
Now I am sure everyone would love to hear some things about how missionary work is going. Annnndddd I wish I had some cool stories for you, but alas. Nothing special this week. There were so many holidays and goodbyes that we really spent most of our free time, packing, chatting with family and friends, and saying our final words before we all head out at some point this week! I will say it has been amazing to feel the spirit everyday and enjoy the that it brings to all the stress and chaos.
Enviando abrazos celestiales,
