It's Christmas everyone! Can you believe it?! Back to being the new guy this week but I love the people here. The branch is pretty small here and church is only 2 hours. But one of the members brings lunch for after becuase he doesn't want to eat alone.haha! He's a pretty good cook too. Anyways, I've been getting aquanted with ceske budejovice and loving my new companion. We are embracing the czech culture this christmas. We don't have any members houses to go to on christmas day, so we are taking matters into our own hands. Today we are buying a carp, We've already bought a kiddy pool. On christmas we are going to kill it and gut and everything. We named her Jezebel. Tomorrow we will be in prague all day so hopefully she doesn't die on us. We are going to do some other stuff like the golden pig and cutting apples.. we are pretty excited about it. This week was pretty normal. Our service the elders found is pretty cool. It's sort of like a sweatshop and we take apart computers. They just showed us how to do everything this week and after christmas we will get to work. And they all brought in cukrovi which is SO good. They are just a bunch of different kinds of little cookies.. and a czech woman's worth sort of depends on how good her cukrovi is so they are pretty incredible. Its pretty sad all the czech mothers hate christmas because they just spend days in the kitchen. Literally DAYS.
Merry christmas family! love you tons and see you in 3 days by the means of skype!
