New Companion

Sister Mom,
Bonjour from the magical land of snow! Ya, I believe it snowed for 3 days or so. It's snowing right now as I type so ya. You really get use to the cold though. I mean I still am cold, but not shivering
to death like I was before! Aw man I feel bad for Ryan all girls that's no fun! He'll just have to party even harder with Corey next year! :) Ryan is super awesome. One of the best! Ya, it's basically
an eternal winter here...it's pretty awesome! It doesn't leave until March ish! Crazy right? I always loved Thanksgiving. The feeling is just fun with family and football and Nanny Jo's food! I hope you
enjoyed it! Ya, I learned that with Elder Heder...he's so positive! It just makes everything feel like it's 'better' but it's the same you just noticed all the good things! Ok, I told Dad about my week so
I'll just answer your questions so I'm not repetitive because I know you read them together haha.


Question #1:New companion? What is his name, where is he from? How are you doing with the change up? How long has he been out?
My new companion is Elder Murphy. He's from California and has been out for about 1 1/2 now.
It's different but he is super awesome and it's fun to learn new things from each other! He gets things done!

Question #2: xmas package- sending it this week. I got the other package back, so I'll include that stuff too. When will you go to the mission office to get it? Any last requests?
I will go sometime this month I believe, so just send it there and I'll get it  sometime this month. No I bet everything Inside is great!

Question #3: I bought maple syrup for our waffles. Is it true they put it on everything?

They don't put it on everything, but they sure like it!

Question #4: Is it true that the sun sets before 4?

Yes, it sets super early and it messes with your body a bit at first because you think 'oh the day is ending' but it's really just beginning!

Question #5: What is a cool christmas tradition there?

Well, they have this dish called cipielle (or something like that...I don't know how to spell it) and it's SUPER good! I would recommend it. It takes a long time to make and it's really what's the word...dense? But well worth it! Other traditions...I can't remember other ones. If I do I will tell you!
Well, mom thanks for all you do! We shared the talk from Elder Christofferson about how mothers have the greatest influence on the world and I know that you have been the biggest influence in my life!
You have been amazing! I know I'm not a perfect child and nor will I ever be, but always know that I love you tons and know that your life has at least changed my life!

Well, have a great week!
Elder Kimzey III :)
