So this past week was a great one! Christmas was awesome it was so fun to be able to talk to my family! It's crazy to see how different home is from when I left! My little bro Cody doesn't sound like a girl when he talks anymore and now he taller then me! My sister is really really pregnant and that is really weird to see as well! Anyway its really nice to be able to catch up I love those skype calls home! So Christmas Eve is the best time to be a missionary! Both Christmas Eve's I have been out I have told my self today we are going to be like Christ and serve people all day! So that is exactly what we did! We went around asking everyone we knew if we could help them that day and lets just say wow we chopped a lot of wood! And man was that fun! I loved being out there doing that for those people! You could tell it meant so much to a lot of them! Just the simple fact that they didn't have to go out and chop would on Christmas was enough to put a smile on their face! Since I have been on my mission I have been able to come to realize what the true meaning of Christmas really is! I would be lying if I told you I didn't like getting presents cause I do! But man the happiness that comes from doing something nice for someone else on christmas is far beyond the happiness that comes from opening presents! Anyway it was a geat christmas! It was a slower week a lot of people were out of town and stuff for the holidays but we are hoping to get back at it this week! Love you guys hope you have a great week!
Love Elder Rushton
