This update is going to be short, because we technically don't really have much of a P-day today. We're taking a member to the temple on Saturday to take out her endowments, and so we're sacrificing our P-day for this week. That's just fine with me, though, because we're going to talk on Christmas Day anyway. So, just make sure you're around the computer at 10 am on Friday (it's 12 my time, hee hee).
This week was fun, though. And don't worry, mom, the cookies made it here safe and sound, and they made a great dinner last night ;) I also got a package from Grandpa and Grandma Hicken, and a package from the Hales. I'm still expecting a package from Caroline, too. That makes six Christmas packages in total! There were a lot of packages to take pictures of, so I just took one big picture of all of them.
Also, I got moved from the English program into a trio with the Spanish Zone Leaders in my district until (hopefully) the end of the transfer, which is just two weeks away anyway. Elder Payne is doing ok, from what I hear. His operation on Friday went well, although they found his heart in a little worse condition than they had thought, and he is set to return to the mission before the new year after recuperating over Christmas.
