December 9, 2013 Week 22

Wow... 5 months down..... it is crazy!!! time is going so fast!!  

Uhhhhh I really don't know what to write.  As far as this week goes with missionary work it was terrible,  the first of the week was very good the temperature was nice and warm and everyone was answering their doors..... then the great snow storm came... ready to hear the grand total.... wait for it, wait for it....2 inches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! crazy right.  

You would think it was a lot if you were from here.  The night before "the great blizzard" we were at a members house and they had the news going and they were telling everyone to go and get supplies and to get food storage!  hahaha it was comical and the Hispanics are the worst at it!!  They take it way to far.  

On Friday we went out and we knocked on all of our investigators doors but none of them answered!!!  They think that if they get out in the snow then they are going to get sick... I have no clue.  It kinda reminded me of when we went and built snow caves up little cottonwood...  it was Eduardos first camp out with us and he was so confused why we would do such a thing!!! hahaha yeah but it was a very slow week and not a lot happened...  

I guess one of my packages got ripped off and that makes me really mad (We sent Ethan a Lego Advent calendar--his package was tampered with, he received everything in the package but the advent calendar--really?  this is the US not South America? disappointing--the lego advent calendar was a very hot item this year--crazy huh?  I'm wrapping all his Christmas packages in duct tape!) but oh well what can you do!!  

Our branch canceled church because of the great snow storm!!!  So we went to and English ward and had the sacrament.   We then had dinner at one of the member's houses and it was good, they had to take off the duct tape of the door though-- they line the door with duct tape so it isn't as drafty...the only problem is that they can't open up the doors.... uhhhhh.  

I really don't have a lot to write this week.  It is terrible I will try to show it in pictures it will be a little easier.....

Not shown is a very graphic photo of Ethan's big toe nail destroyed--no camera prank-- I told him to take care of it so they don't have to chop it off, he said, "ok".  We also found out we get to talk with Ethan on Christmas for about an hour.  He is not allowed to skype.  Thanks for all your love, support and prayers for Elder Fin.   Please pray for his struggling Spanish branch--it seems they have been cancelling church every other week.
