We hope you all had a wonderful New Years celebration. We had a fun New Years Eve party with the other Senior Couples. We started at 5:30 pm and figured no one would last past 10:30 pm, but we started playing a Pictionary game and it lasted until midnight. We did a little celebrating and went home tired but happy. We have been working on a number of projects this week. We drove to Homestead on Tuesday and met with the missionaries and did some YSA follow-up training. We also went to a large fruit stand south of Homestead called "Roberts in Here" and had a Cherry Key Lime and a Strawberry Passion Fruit shake. We also delivered a bunch of Christmas packages to the missionaries. We got to be with an investigator at the Snapper Creek branch on Sunday and she invited us to her baptism on January 16th. She is so excited about the church and wants to know everything she can about the gospel. Elder Black got to teach the Gospel Principles class on Sunday on the Priesthood. Next week, the Branch is having a pot luck dinner after church, will go visiting members for two hours and then come back for a fireside where Elder Bednar will be the CES speaking. At the fast and testimony meeting, we really felt the spirit and we believe Veniese, the investigator, was quite moved by the wonderful spirit that was there. We are grateful for all our many blessings and wish you all a very joyous New Year.
