Dad:

Elder Feidler,

Hi from Texas!!  It's been a busy week here.  Grandma & Grandpa came over to visit.  Here they are playing outside. (Zack is shy) It's been pretty warm this week.

I had my work Christmas party this week at a Mexican restaurant in Houston.

Saturday we had a ward Christmas breakfast party.  I cooked about 60 pancakes. It was good. 

So a couple of parties made for a fun week. 

Chelle has been getting crafty. Myka likes to watch. 

Here she is trying to figure out a wall collage. 

 Exciting news!  Josh Engle got his mission call to California San Fernando Mission. Speaking Spanish. He leaves on March 11th. You will miss him by less than a month. 

Here he is when he found out. And a map.

Church was good here today. Hope you are having a great week. We sent a Christmas package that was delivered to the mission office this week. There are some baked goods in it too. So Chelle may call the office and see if they can open it and give you those items now. 

I hope you're having good weather and great success. Wish everyone a Merry Christmas! And teach lots. 

I completed your financial aid application for FASFA.  Time is flying by. We miss and love you lots!  Keep working hard. And remember to have fun too. 

Love Dad

It's been a happy week! We were able to teach Bailey, the employee that the Mitchell's brought to the Christmas dinner! The lesson went great and he came to church. While at church he introduced himself to the Priesthood by saying his name and that he wanted to be a Mormon and get baptized! GOLDEN CHRISTMAS GIFT! Also this week we met with Rick and Beth who read the Book of Mormon more after our last lesson and were super excited because their atheist daughter was invited to a Mormon dance. Today we have service for a non member family that we have been slowly working with! Jessica is still on for baptism December 27th at 3pm.

That's way exciting to hear about Josh! I can't wait to hear his experiences. Both you and Bishop look like you're doing great! Yummy pancakes! I think church might soon have electric guitars in our hymns. Around 5:35 in this video,

We are very excited for this week! Love and miss ya'll,
