Thanksgiving!



Well this week was better. The work was a little bit better, but me and my comp had a great time together. We started joking around a lot better, and the new companion ice was broken so that was really good.

This week was pretty interesting. Today we move houses temporarily. We are going to go stay in a house of 6 for a few weeks until next change. That's going to be interesting. The house is just outside of the sector, so that'll be fun! Our contract just ended in the house we were living in, and so until next change we'll be staying over there for a little bit.

And then today was probably the most fun P Day I've had. Since they don't celebrate Thanksgiving here (it's really an American and Canadian holiday) we did our own as a district. We got really lucky, because the supermarket just got turkeys here for Christmas, and they got here early, so we had a Thanksgiving Banquet as a district. We cooked a turkey, made stuffing, apple pie, potatoes and gravy. It took us all day, but we finally did it and it was awesome! I'll send a picture.



The first one is a picture of our Thanksgiving Banquet. We ate it all between the 8 of us.


An upclose of our turkey. It's not like mama made it, but it was 
just about there. 
(Here's a joke. 
Q: How many Missionaries does it take to cook a turkey?
A: Only one, but it takes seven others telling him how to do it!)


And then me and Purnell found a reaaaaally old soccer ball in our house, so what were we to do? We destroyed it and then wore it as a hat.



Braden also challenged those of us who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints to share the Gospel with someone.  Help the missionaries in finding people to teach.  He says it makes his job so much easier when members are involved!  He especially challenged me(mom) to do it!  Probably knowing that I don't like doing that!!
