Dec. 23, 2013--Merry Merry Christmas!!!

Greetings from the good ole Leb'nin, Tennessee! Yes it's Leb'nin ... not Lebanon. You'll get corrected if you say it wrong here. Them southerners, they're great.
So hi! What a crazy week. I have a total of zero time so I am going to be real quick.
-Transfer meeting was on Tuesday! I said bye to everyone on Monday. It was SO HARD to say bye to Mat and Tabatha and Jada and Jax (the Shepherds). They gave me a bunch of gifts that are so precious/sentimental! I'll remember them forever.
-One of our less actives we were working with in CV2 went to the temple! That was cool.
-Sister Rawlings is my new trainee! She's great! Fresh out of high school! I'll miss Sister Gibson.
-This week has been AWESOME. We have found heaps and bounds of new investigators and the Lord is just preparing the people here in Lebnin to hear the gospel. We are tracting fools these days! We're only part time car too.
-Lebnin ward is extremely large. HUGE.
-The bishop wears black jeans and cowboy boots to church. YEP.
-We took over the Elders apartment and it is disgusting, so we've been cleaning a bunch!
-The Elders were pretty much working with no one so it was kind of like opening a new area. It has been very stressful but the Lord has literally guided our every footstep and we had a wonderful week! You would never know we had started from scratch!
-I am having Christmas dinner at the Hokansens and will be skyping from their home! They have like 50 children (not really, but it seems like it) but we will be upstairs! We will be skyping at 4, Tennessee time.
-Mama and Papa's 12 days of Christmas package is the best! I love it!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you mama/papa!
-We had crazy tornado warnings a couple nights ago! It was nuts! The sky was green! That happened in Clarksville a few weeks ago too, but I forgot to tell you about it. Tornado's are super eerie.
-Just lots of miracles these days. I don't even know where to start. Maybe I'll remember some when we Skype!
I am so stoked to see your beautiful faces! Maybe the iPhones can FaceTime Bri and Joe and Brance and Aspen while I Skype you!
Lots of pictures to send! I LOVE YOU ALL!
Have a very merry CHRIST-mas! (See what I did there).
Love,
Sister Boren
