I hope you all had a very merry Christmas! It was a little bit different
experience for me all around, but it turned out to be a great
Christmas!
Tuesday afternoon we discovered the true beauty
of Burger King while tabling with the elders in the cold! Only two of
our investigators were able to meet this week cause of the holidays, so
we spent about 8 hours a day finding in the freezing cold! Which led to
the discovery of the Jr. Whopper! It tastes like America and is steaming
hot...the perfect combination for a cold winter day! That night the
Sister Training Leaders came down from Buda and we went on Splits! It
was super fun, we took them out to dinner at Trojas and explored the
town for a little bit!
The Christmas
celebrations turned out wonderful! We were required to work for the
whole holiday, so we spent most of the time over at the homes of
members! Christmas Eve we had a family invite us and the elders over and
I tried a piece of reindeer! Maybe I am losing it, but it honestly
tasted just like a pot roast to me!
My lovely
mother sent us some paper ornaments that she insisted we use, so we made
do with what we had. It definitely wasn't the typical Christmas tree,
but it was a tree of some sorts we inherited with the apartment and it
served its purpose! We woke up Christmas morning, opened our presents,
and made a nice french toast breakfast with eggs, hash-browns, and some
Stephens mint hot cocoa! That evening we went over to Tóth Gábors house
and got to Skype with our families! It was super nice to be able to
talk with everybody and see their faces again!
On Saturday there was another baptism here in Szeged! It was super neat to be apart of!
This
morning for P-day we got a group of members and went paint-balling! It
was a super fun experience! Little Domi (the one being lifted up in the
pictures) came! He is definitely my favorite member here in Szeged! He
is a magician and always shows us his little card tricks, such a stud!
His father is the branch president and they invited over to their house
for dinner on Saturday, and Domi was doing a card trick when one of the
elders was all "Domi, you are going to have a HOT wife one day!" Domi
quickly responded "I know" as he winked at us and then bust up laughing,
slapping his knee cause he thought it was so funny! Afterwards he told
us that he just didn't know what else to say! It was super cute, I love
that kid!
Overall it was a great week!
Definitely not the Christmas I am used to, but we celebrated none the
less! And now its time for New Years! I hope you all have a great week
and even though we normally dont end up keeping them, make some good New
Years resolutions anyways hahaha
