It feels like we're pretending that it's Christmas. It's hard to imagine Christmas at 84 degrees away from my family. They're trying to make it really special for us here. Sunday they had a small choir come give us a concert. My two favorite songs were Carol of the Bells and Do You he...ar what I hear (both en espanol). Then one night this week, all the senior missionaries came caroling to us and brought us brownies. The senior couple that lives down the hall from us brought us several goodies. Tonight we're having a special program. The different districts are going to be singing songs and someone is going to read the Christmas story. We're having our big Christmas dinner tonight. We are singing the Primary song "Stars were gleaming" I think that's what it's called. Tomorrow they have fun stuff planned for us, but they want it to be a surprise I guess.
