What up? I missed y'all too. It just didn't seem the same! I
was telling Elder Mafi all about our Thanksgiving Day cooking fest! They really
need to learn how to make the sweet potato stuff down here. They just like
slice them into chunks and then they fill it with nasty syrup and cover it with
marshmallows.
I can't wait to hear that my Saints killed the Seahawks
haha. Sweet that Ethan and Noah are getting going on basketball. Let me know
how the games go and how hard Ethan dunks it on somebody's head. Awesome that
they both got their Eagles and I heard mom did a killer job. I only got mine
finished cause you helped me out Dad so you get some credit too.
1. How was Thanksgiving
for you? Thanksgiving was fantastic here. We ended up going to 3 different
Thanksgiving dinners! Haha
2. What member house
did you go to? or family? The first was an awesome member family named the
Lubbes (Loo-bee), The second was actually an investigators home named Jim Brott
so that was pretty awesome. Then Saturday we went to the Carrols and they are
super awesome too. They had sooooooo much food.
3. Favorite food?
Newest food? Worst food? Favorite food? Pecan Pie. Newest? Cornbread
dressing. Fantastic stuff. Worst? Collard greens. *shaking head and spitting*
4. Did you go get a
blanket or comforter? Is it still cold? Sweater working well? It's only
really cold at night, but now we decided to turn on the heater so I am pretty
warm now. The sweater fits perfect.
5. Thanks for the
pictures! Is your rain coat good or do we need to get something that makes you
look more Professional? I'm glad you got them! I look pretty good huh? haha
The rain coat works great!
6. Did you guys do a
turkey bowl football game? Yes we did a turkey bowl at the high school
stadium so that was pretty awesome. We had about 6 on 6 and my team killed it.
Elder Egbert played at Dixie State so we had a little advantage.
7. How is your
excerise going? push up for chest and burpies are great to get you in good
shape. I am still exercising regularly mostly maintaining haha.
8. bike fixed? Yeah
the bike is all fixed up! Thankfully. Only problem is that Elder Misi doesn't
get his bike until Friday so we are still walking.
9. So what was the day
of thanksgiving like? what did it consist of? Thanksgiving consisted of
Turkey bowl from about 8 to 10:30 and then getting ready and going to the
Lubbes at 11:30 and then we were there for 2 hours. Then to Jim Brott from
about 2 ish to 4 ish. Then we were mostly in the apartment weekly planning and
chilling with some members and we had a few lessons that night.
10. When is transfers?
It should be coming up soon right? How is Elder Mafi doing? Transfers are
on December 11. Elder Mafi is doing great trying to send stuff home.
Crazy thing happened this Saturday! I got a call from the
APs on Friday and they were like "hey we are bringing an Elder to stay
with you guys and making you a trio tomorrow. Is there any way you can find a
mattress for him by tomorrow night?" So Saturday night we got Elder Misi!
crazy huh? Randomly out of nowhere. So yeah he is from Kailua I think on Oahu
right? He went to Kamehameha the private school on the east side of the island?
So there are three polys in one apartment haha.
Thanks for the thought Dad. I love you and I am so thankful
that I can be your son and learn from you more and more.
Have a great week Dad!
