For the last few years, I have attempted to become a minimalist. I am so far from that. However, I have participated in a decluttering event. The idea is to declutter 2022 items from your house in 2022. I didn't mke it this year. I did come close.

Not Quite 2022
Day After Christmas
The day after the dentist was Jack's favorite time yet. He got to go to the Dentist. We have been trying to get there for like 3 months. He had 3 cavities that needed to be filled. Finally we did it. He was a rock star and was so brave.
Christmas Day 2022
Christmas day started out in Church. It was a fabulous meeting as it was only one hour long. We sang songs and had a speaker. The bishop was the weakest link to the meeting for sure. We headed home and decideded we needed a Christmas Walk. We walked around Bountiful Pond. It is nice over there when it is cold because there are no mosquitos. It is about a mile around the pond. We saw about one other person and their dog there. It was really beautiful and cold and good.

Christmas Eve 2022
We started the Christmas Eve at the Planet. Andrew and I are rocking the Planet. That is his friend Brian that says he sees me there all the time. Yes he does...All the time.
Lewis Family Christmas Party and Church Playing
Our Christmas program at church was the week before Christmas. This is the list of songs and hymns for sunday. My friend in charge put this together for me so I knew when the hymns were.
Winter's for Jack
Jack received this poster. He was invited to Winter's dance.
Our Annual Sing a Long
The Annual Sing a Long was held again this year. We braved the parking and the crowds and attended. The thing this year was that michelle's family didn't come with us. Not sure what their excuse was....
But when Michelle says she's only 50 percent in, I knew she was really 100 percent OUT.

Week 20. Its really cold now. Also merry Christmas I guess...
what's up y'all. This week was supa hot fire. Now the weather was very not supa hot fire. Last week I complained about it starting to get cold but then god decided to humble me and make it even colder haha. Thursday it got all the way down to -12 and us being the very smart missionaries we are decided to drift to all our lessons. Thursday we were also inside most of the day because the roads were super icy.
Monday we did get to go to the temple which was super nice and spiritual. I also got to see both of my old comps that day. Then we all hung out as missionaries at the stake center and it was super fun. I'm very slowly starting to recognize all the little blessings in my everyday life. It was a huge blessing to attend the temple during the Christmas season and to hang out with a bunch of missionaries for a few hours. After p day ended we wanted to go and knock on this one apartment building where we know this lady lives but she wouldn't give us her address. So we went and decided to just knock on them all and we found marie. We had a super good lesson with Marie and she had all these amazing stories about how she has seen god more recently in her life. IT WAS A HYPE MIRACLE
thursday we were grounded basically all day until like 5 then we went drifting and then we went and taught our friend yuri. Yuri is half catholic and half lutheran which don't make sense at all but we taught about jose smith and she liked it i guess.
Friday we went and taught brother woods and we talked about football for an hour and a half before we started teaching. He is my fav person to teach because he updates me on all the scores and headlines. After that we went and taught our friends angie and we had a really good lesson. She even gave us fruit snacks so you know the spirit was there haha.

Its getting cold - Weekly Email Elder Clemons
It's Getting Cold
This week was pretty mid but we ended off on a bang so thats
lit.
Tuesday we had a really good district council about how to
hie to kolob. Not gonna lie I didn't know what kolob was until we talked about
it so guess district council works haha. The bad thing about district council
is my district leader is so good at bringing the spirit that I always leave
feeling like Im a bad missionary lol.
