Christmas

Well this Christmas was a little different, it was pretty warm instead of snowing like it was back home for you guys. Why does it snow when im gone and i have always wanted a white Christmas, not really seeing why that happens. But while you were huddled in side your houses I was here. Outside at a very nice warm tropical beach which felt amazing and we went snorkeling and found some really cool fish that would hide in the rocks and come out and then go back in which was awesome. I don't think any of you are jealous right now because you had snow. But during this Holiday season I got a little discouraged and homesick because I saw everyone here with there families and I wasn't, but this last Sunday some friends and I went to this concert and it was so much fun and it really made me realize that yeah I'm not with my family but I am with the people that I have come to care a lot about and are my really good friends here and that made me feel so much better. And actually we are going to another concert for New Years Eve so I am really excited about that and all the fun that night is going to entail. In the Dominican Republic they have another Holiday called Kings Day, and its about when the three Kings gave presents to everyone and so thats when most of the kids here get there presents from there family. So as a church outreach we are going to a children's hospital and going to give out presents to kids and minister to there families that are there so we are very excited about that, and the cool thing is I get to dress up as Santa Clause. So I hope the next time you read my blog, which I hope you do, that you bring a kleenex with you because i think you might need it at least I know my dad will when he reads it. So I hope you all had a very good Christmas and have a wonderful New Year Dios de Bendiga, which means God Bless in Spanish.
