HEYO HEYO HEYO!! mappy hyber condayI realized right after emailing last week that I didn't even say Happy Thanksgiving I'm sorry about that. Happy Thanksgiving. haha
I have to say with all of the holidays that are coming up in the next year, I am most excited about 12/12/12 baby! It's gonna be so sweet
Still no snow, it's been 70 and sunny for the last half of the week, which was perfect for the turkey bowl! I took some good pictures of our team t-shirts and before and after the game shots but none of the actual football so I hope you believe I actually played! It was just like the glory days! I dropped like 4 touchdown passes and let a touchdown in on Defense but still had fun! haha man I should have just played the bassoon and gotten that scholarship
It's been fun to rake yards and mow lawns as the season winds down. Service is an awesome thing. We went to Makiah's house and raked all of her leafs up and then the kids had a blast jumping in them and making a big mess of them so I gave up and just played in the leafs for a minute. I didn't take my camera sorry. You might notice a $25 charge to my card at family dollar, that was 20 cash and 5 for garbage bags to put leafs in just so you know. It has been a week full of service and some good meetings.
We got word from the relief society pres that there was a member who might need her yard winterized and cleaned. Single mom, white, works every day and has no time to keep up the yard. So we decided to go help her out, all four of us in the apartment. It took a good 5 hours and she showed up in the middle (off early from work) and she just started crying and was so appreciative of it. It was so humbling. She fed us dinner and told us that her fiance passed away 4 months ago and the stress of her yard and everything else was just building up and this service would get her through the winter. Some of these stories just break my heart!!!
I really don't have much to say this week. Like I said, we raked a lot of leafs, mowed a lawn, and had a couple appointments cancel. Turkey day was fun, we ate a ton of food at Bro. and Sister Feather's house. I am just so thankful for everyone! I thank you all for your love and support! This has been the best time of my life so far. I have grown so much and according to Elder Tramell I have changed a ton. I don't know in what way but I guess I have. I am so thankful for family and friends. There are not words enough to describe how thankful I am for family, whether close or extended. Tell everyone from Davis, Andreasen, and Buetler families that I love them so much and miss them dearly. I feel so blessed!
