2013! peace out!

Hello!!!
Oh how wonderful it was to talk to my family on Christmas!!!! That was probably the best Christmas present I could have ever recieved! This Christmas was one of the best krimmas I have ever had. I am pleased that everyone said that I look "glowing" I was worried that the glow stick I ingested wouldn't work. (sorry that was such a horrible joke... I try to be funny) 
On friday our friend Gerard was Baptized! It was a great service and he looked really happy, we were so excited for him and for our little branch.
This last week we spent a LOT of time finding new people to teach, I am getting quite sick of walmart, malls and the target.... I can tell you exactly where to find just about anything you want. It's almost like i work there but I think my job is a lot cooler than the walmart people... I am bringing people eternal salvation and they are just bringing them really low prices on everything you ever dreamed of having (well maybe not everything)
Our branch president is doing a lot better, he was able to be at church again after his surgery. I have gotten really close to him and his family, they are some of the best people I know! They have adopted me into their family and I feel so blessed to have them :)
 Oh some good news!!! I am not being transfered!!!!! I get at least another 6 weeks in my little branch :) our goal this next transfer is to bring as many souls as we possibly can to their savior Jesus Christ! We are going to work hard and go crazy :)...... but not too crazy!
I am not really sure how my new years will look... Honestly I can't even remember what I did a year ago so I am sure this new years will be just as memorable, or more. I will probably end up going to bed at my normal 10:30 pm, that happens to be my favorite part of the day anyways.
it's weird to think that it is almost 2014... A year ago this whole process of the mission started... I can't believe how fast time is going by... I feel like I say that all the time but honestly it is racing by. The only thing that I can do is learn as much as I can while I still have all this life left in me
2013 has been a crazy year for me! It hasn't been the best year of my life but it has by far been one of the best years for my life! I have learned so much about myself and about my Savior. I feel like I am becoming the person I have always wanted to be, there is still a lot of work to do but some progress has been made! My years started with a new job working at legends grill, meeting some amazing people, dating someone who helped me learn so much, finishing another semester at BYU, spending a month before my mission doing really fun things, and then leaving on a crazy adventure! It has been a packed year and I bet next year will be even better!
Hurrah for 2013 :)
Sorry I don't have a ton to write about today! ya'll are my favorite and I really miss you but we have a lot of amazing things to look forward too :) We will be together forever!
I love you guys :)
have a blessed- awesome- rockin New Years! Stay safe and go crazy for me :)
I will talk to ya'll next year!!!!!!!!!!!
Love,
Sister Emzil Barnett
