I feel especially excited to write an e-mail to you all today, but I really don´t have any exciting news. Honesty. I have nothing, ha ha. SO...
New Years, we taught practically nobody. Everybody was either out of town, at the bar, or at church (Brazil...love it!). In the evening, we went to Washington´s house for dinner (He´s our Branch Mission Leader, and best friend, too!). They told us the day-of that everyone had to be inside at 7, but since we had this appointment set before they told us anything, they allowed us an extra hour. The extra hour still wasn´t enough to eat the giant feast of food that had been prepared, so we ended up taking some of it home with us. I felt kind of bad leaving so early, because so much preparation had been made, but we weren´t the ones who neglected to tell the missionaries what time to be home until 5:00 in the afternoon...
anyway...
Both my companion and I have been having trouble sleeping since the 30th, and on Friday, we both woke up sick. *yay!* We started out with similar symptoms, but in the end, we both took a turn for the worse--but in different directions. I ended up with a high fever and the works that come with that, and my companion ended up with pretty bad body aches (that sounds mellow, but he really couldn´t move) that made it hard for him to leave bed. Yup...noooo work got done. Sorry I don´t have something more exciting to tell you than that, but missions are awesome! I love you all, and I´ll talk to you soon.

p.s. To make up for the boring e-mail, here are some pictures! One is of the Christmas feast we had at the Branch President´s house, another of the contents of my Christmas package, and another of a plate of happiness that I made for the missionaries in the apartment using the peanut butter I received!
