Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!!! Being away for Christmas for the first time was really strange.  I love my comps.  Hermana Jones (she and Sister Smith are Spanish speaking sisters) is teaching me Spanish again.  We have been cleaning the apartment when we can.  It has been the Elders apartment for the past few years. We can't reach anything.....okay, I can’t reach anything! Those Elders put stuff up high!

I am so grateful for my Savior and the time we have each day to represent him. I am so grateful for the opportunity we had to celebrate His birth this past week! I know that this Christmas was not about the lights, boxes, and bows, but it was truly about our Savior's birth, Jesus Christ. I am so grateful for Him and all He has done for every one of us.
Family so excited to see Ashlee via Skype, time short but sweet!!
Love,
Sister Young
