Email you next year..HA!

Yes, the subject is supposed to be a dumb joke. I am not that lame...yet. 

Dad- 3 runs in 4 hours? Holy. I sure hope the snow was good because that sounds poopy. Yesterday I started singing "I cry the day we put the tree down.." like you do every December 26, and Sister Anderson had no idea what I was singing. I'm thinking the fam needs to invite her to a special performance in McCammon next year if you're catching my drift. I love you, Dad! Mom- I do not believe that you have the capability of "ugly" crying. You're too attractive. After I sung some "Forgotten Carols" to Sister Anderson, I told her there was no doubt in my mind that you were cleaning up all of our Christmas decorations. She was impressed. You don't mess around when it comes to cleaning up the house in a timely manner. That's one of the infinite things I love about you. Hope the January decorations are looking fly. Love you, Momma. Emily- Not going to lie, your email was pretty lame this week. Seriously, kid? Are ya already dying on me? ;) I love you, Em. You are such a cutie. 

Quotes of the week: 

1.) "Oh, look! There's Snoop Dog!" -Polly Polly screamed this in the parking garage of a hospital. Here's the embarrassing part: she screamed it at a black man in his car. You know how when people are talking about heir kids and they are like "Man, I can't take them anywhere!" That's exactly how I feel about Polly. 

2.) " Thank you for the air that we breath. Thank you for the opportunity we have to live with You again. Thank you for the air we will breath in heaven....unless we don't breath in heaven...in that case this just got pretty awkward..." -Tyler I can already feel the awkward Tyler is going to feel when he gets to heaven and isn't breathing. Awko taco, am I right or am I right? 

3.) "Is your mom single?" -Rich (recent convert)  Uhh, haha, nah, she's not. She's married. SUPER married. Rich is 47 and super single. He asks Sister Anderson if she'd marry him at least once a week. He told me he would ask me, but he'd feel like a pedophile; hence why he's after my mother.  I realize that this makes him seem like a really creepy person, but for some reason, I really love him. He's the best kind of creepy, and I am so happy I know him. 

4.) "You're from Idaho? People live there?"  Not 1, not 2, but 3 people have said this to me in the past month. 2 out of 3 of these people asked if I grew up "in the country". I think they picture my family wearing overalls with plaid shirt, and having about 7 yellow teeth. We're normal people, folks. And each of my family members have BEAUTIFUL teeth.  

5.) "Have we not reason to be filled with gratitude, regardless of the circumstances in which we find ourselves?" -President Uchtdorf I am going to be honest, I was pretty scared that skyping with all of you was going to make me homesick. I said a prayer before I called asking Heavenly Father that the skype call was going to be awesome, and that it would make my Christmas happy and not sad. After we hung up, I was tempted to be sad, but then all I could feel was gratitude. There was no reason for me to be sad. I have the best family on this planet, and I get to share the gospel to people so that their families can be happy like ours. My life is good. My life is REALLY good. 

I love each of you too much. Please have the best week. Happy 2017! 

Love, 

Sister Reddish 

P.S.- Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU, to everyone who sent me things this Christmas. I have felt so loved, and I really appreciate it. :)
