Happy New Years!

This week was surely a crazy one. Christmas Eve was nothing short of amazing when we went to the Curtis' and had a very traditional meal of pizza and mashed potatoes. I really didn't mind at all because they are like 2 of my favorite things. Also because the Curtis family is just so stinking awesome it almost kills me.

Christmas was just kind of whatever. Only it didn't really feel like Christmas sure i got to see my family but through a computer. I hope everyone is feeling super bad for me while reading this because it is kind of sad. But life moves on so oh well!

Wednesday might have been my favorite day of the week. We had exchanges and I got to go with Elder Nielson who, apart from Elder Barr of course, has become one of my best friends on the mission. He is an ambassador at Utah State and we are so similar in almost every way. Except that he has to stay true to his phili sports team. We had a little tiff about the Boston Celtics. Ha! We did really good work as well so had a lot of fun. Nielson is a great guy and we plan to go on a double date when we get back. So girls if you are reading this and would like that chance then those letters better start flowing. Look at how pathetic I am begging for letters on my blog haah.

The rest of the week was just a regular week. Soeur Grandfils is awesome and she gave us a whole ton of food. She also said she loved us which really made me reflect on everyone in the ward. It's so crazy how important ward members are to the missionaries without families like the Curtis family and Soeur Grandfils I don't know what I would do. It's such a great blessing to have all the wonderful members of the church. It's awesome.

As far as this week goes we have another nice day off tomorrow because it is new years. YIPEE!! time to make some nice missionary resolutions! Tonight we are having guys night out with the Elders from Louise which is the southern half of Brussels. It's going to be so weird to just like hang out with guys tonight... AHHH!

Love you all,
Elder Oliverson
