So whenever I told people that it was Thanksgiving on Monday, they gave
me the most wierd look ever.. I'm like... HELLO?!?!?! I'm from
CANADA!!!!!! hahaha... It was still a good day though. We didn't get
turkey... But no worries. On American thanksgiving we're getting fed 3
or 4 times.... my poor body... it's gonna hate me...
I heard that Hockey season started too. haha... You're gonna have to
keep me updated on that one. Woot hockey!!
And guess what we get to do on Saturday?? Well let me tell you. We get
to go to the Little Rock Air Force Base with Louise and watch the Air
Show!!! WOOT!!! I'm so excited!!! We get to see the blue eagles???
haha.. is that what their called?? haha... Well I know what they look
like at least. I'm excited. But because Louise is one the the Chamber of
Commerse people, she gets to represent Maumelle at things like this, so
theres gonna be a Maumelle tent at the air show and we get to go with
her to represent. WOOT!!! President was all for us going. I'm sure him
being a 3 star General in the air force had nothing to do with it too.
hahaha... I'm sooo excited. Saturday's gonna be a blast!!
Also... I ate salmon on Saturday night... And I actually really liked
it... But dont expect me to all the sudden become a salmon lover because
I think this was just a fluke and the person who cooked it is amazing.
Sorry mom... but your salmon stinks up the house. Hers didn't. haha...
And this is really cool. *Yawney's.. pay attention. :P* So we have this
new Senior couple in our District, the Stotts. They're from Texas and
doing a CES mission. Elder Stotts was telling us that his first mission
was in New York. So I wondered if by chance he knew Pres Lee (my Branch
Pres in Banff).. Turns out he does!! Elder Stotts said that he did
remember "Elder Blaine Lee" because they were in the same district
together in Long Island! HOW RANDOM IS THAT!!! Seriously... the world is
so small... So Bro Yawney... Tell Pres Lee that Richard Stotts says hi..
and me too. How cool is that though eh?
Also... We have another person getting baptized in two weeks hopefully.
Sherri McKinney. She's the non member of a part member family, and I
guess she called the bishop to make an appointment with him, and they
ended up talking for almost 3 hours, and by the end of it, Bishop told
her that she needed to be baptized... in two weeks.. so bishop talked to
us and told us all about it and said that we just have to re teach her
all the lessons and she's good to go. So random... she's been around
missionaries constantly for the past 3 years. Its pretty cool that I get
to be at the tail end of this for her though. I'm excited!! Two baptisms
in one transfer!!! WOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So things are picking up... with no other explanation than it being a
miracle. haha. The Church is most definitely true and the work is
rewarding. I love it.
