November 3, 2014 Week 69

November!

Wow, October is gone!  
The weather here finally caught up! 
Thanks for the Halloween package!... the scone mix exploded and smelt kinda bad but that's ok, the rest of the stuff was great!  

It is awesome to hear the everyone is playing some November football that is always a good sign! Go kill those hawks this week!  

It is great that y'all live in a neighborhood that is safe enough to have trick or treating! Most of the people we have visited this past week didn't let their kids go! I guess there was one neighborhood that did it just because they are huge houses--so people drove to it and went trick or treating!... It is going to be interesting how much longer trick or treating stays around!

This week was great though we got some good work done! I like the time change but I hate it at the same time! Missionary work is hard in the dark!  I guess Texans dont really like the change either.  We had a gun pulled on us last night doing some less active hunting! fun fun its alright he was drunk;)  But we have been having a good time!  

For the past month we have been having Family Home Evenings with Sister Allen (She is a single mother of five ages 8 and younger! The youngest was born 2 weeks ago! Then 1 week ago her son broke his leg and is now rolling around in a wheelchair!) but anyways I had the opportunity to baptize/confirm 8 year old Juliana.  It was kinda weird doing it for an active family especially since the 'dad' (who is a RM, and was active a few week ago) was there.  But it was a great experience!  And another testament for me to always be loyal to your family and those you truly love!

Yesterday we had dinner at the Bishop's house! This ward is blessed with a great bishop who really cares for the people here! But during dinner their dogs escaped! Well this wouldn't be a problem if they lived in the city... but they live in the sticks! So we were all looking for them for about 30 minutes and gave up... Bishop said  that they would probably come back and luckily they did!  But it was kinda fun running around in the sticks--and cactus...I got to see the beauty of Texas (which is sparse)

Well that is about it for today! There is just too much to talk about i cant even think:)
BUENO, BUENO
LOVE YA
