Dec. 26, 2017 -Jan. 8, 2018 Weeks 20 and 21

Hey Everyone! Sorry I didn't write last week, but Christmas was way good.  We were able to talk with the family!  I had to do mine over Facebook messenger because Skype and Google werent turning out very well, but it was good.  The ward members took good care of us and we ate lots of food.  The members gave us ties, candy, sunglasses (for the comp who doesn't have glasses) and lots of love.  They celebrate on the 24th here and open all the presents at  midnight .  Well we had to go to bed before then so we just had a BBQ (because it is also 80 degrees here) .  We had chicken, potatoes and Pan de Pascua.  Chileans love their fruitcake.  IT is actually pretty good here. I am not sure what it is like in the states but there is a stereotype for a reason.Then on Christmas Day we had a chess tournament in the house we live in with another companionship and then enjoyed the day and did some Christmas shopping.  For dinner we had tacos .  Big blessing right there.      For New Ye
