Thanksgiving

All we ate this week was thanksgiving food. Before Thanksgiving we had 2 meals where the family had celebrated Thanksgiving the Saturday before the actual holiday and gave us leftovers.  Then on Thanksgiving we had late Thanksgiving lunch and Thanks giving diner.  We were so full.  Then on Saturday we had another Thanksgiving lunch.  In that family they had mostly cookies for desert.  They were good.  One Southern dish that everyone had was a green casserole with onions on top.  The other thing that everyone made was homemade macaroni and cheese.  No one had apple pie though.

One thing I learned this year is the difference between stuffing and dressing.  Stuffing is made with normal breadcrumbs while dressing is made with cornbread crumbs.    

If you haven't already seen the new light the world Christmas video you should look at it.  I'm going to be doing a lot of stuff on the 25 day calendar and I think it would be a fun thing to do as a family.  

For Christmas I would like the city harbor album, adult coloring book, origami, and a Book of Mormon with everyone's testimonies in it.  

Tell Ammon to get better soon

Love ya

I like to look for Rainbows

Brandi got baptized this week!!!!!  The musical number the relief society president didn't show up, long with everyone we asked to bring refreshment but other than that it was good.  We (the sister missionaries) sang I Like To Look For Rainbows for the musical number so that was fun.   

There's not enough Sister missionaries to go around so I'm going to be with the Newnan Sisters and we're going to be covering both areas.  This is effective the day before Thanksgiving.  They have a Thanksgiving dinner scheduled and we have a Thanksgiving lunch and dinner scheduled so we're going to be eating most of the day.   

Temple trip and a Baptism

We still have all of the trees.  Probably one of my favorite things to do is study the gospel.  I'm in the Christmas chapters of Jesus the Christ and it's really cool to see how all the prophesies were fulfilled.  It also makes the bible easier to understand, witch is nice. 

We have and investigator getting baptized this Saturday!!! Her name is Brandi.  She's married and has 2 kids, a girl and a boy.  

We got a ride to the temple with Elder and Sister Collins, along with the Newnan, Peach Tree, Whitewater, and Fayetvill sisters.  We found out Trump is going to be the next president so we talked about that for a little bit but since we're all out of the loupe on politics we switched over to things we know about.  Such as who is teaching who and napping.  After the temple we went to zone training and learned about this years Christmas initiative called #lighttheworld.  It's a video and a series of service activities starting the day after thanksgiving.  

Other than that things have been fairly normal.  Transfers are the day before Thanksgiving. 

Treats and Temples

My asthma is doing good.  So far I've only gotten asthma attacks on days I've forgotten to take my preventative.  It's now occurring to me that I don't actually know how to refill those...

   We didn't get any trick or treaters, so now we have a bag of candy that we're eating. We went shopping on Halloween and I found a green rain jacket that I really like.  They didn't want us out during trick or treating hours so we went in at 7 and watched Mountain of the Lord.  Sister Thompson told her mom we didn't have a dinner appointment that night so she ordered us pizza.  We had a lot of fun. 

   I got your letter and the temple names.  We go to the temple this Wednesday so that'll be fun.  I set Danny a letter so let me know when she gets it.  

   I don't remember if I already told you this, but the Saturday before fast Sunday we have a mission wide conference call where each companionship texts in three names and we have a mission fast for them.  I put Megan on the list.  Keep me posted on that.  

Love you
