Week 42- November 27

Everything is going pretty good! We are staying busy for the most part! We haven't found anyone new to teach so we are still on the hunt. Thanksgiving was pretty good. The day was a really long day for working, but it was awesome to spend time with the members. We did eat a lot of food. It was great. It was so weird not being with the family tho, it just didn't seem like thanksgiving but I guess it was. The family we had dinner with was great, He is a plastic surgeon which is pretty crazy! He sews his turkeys up which was pretty awesome!

   Saturday I did a baptismal interview for a girl being baptized this up coming Saturday  those are always really cool it is great to see peoples lives change and how they gained their testimony. Being a district leader is really cool. Yesterday a member bought us lunch and they called it the Birthday lunch because they found out it was my birthday last week. For lunch we had, Cafe Rio. It brought back good memories of things back home. which was pretty cool. Sunday during church was pretty crazy, because during one of the musical numbers I was getting flash backs of my farewell. I don't even know why but it was cool to think back on the day. Last night we helped a less active family put up their Christmas lights. It was a lot of fun, I really like doing that. It was cool to because the missionaries always offered them help, but they thought they were just saying it to be nice so they never took them up on it but we were a little bold and told them that we were just going to do it and they ended up letting us. It was cool to see what happens when you are a little bold. 

     Today we had the opportunity to go to the Temple. We went to the Newport Beach Temple. It was so great. I love going to the temple! It was cool to get to go to a new temple.   I definitely miss going every week but getting to go at all is great! 

 That is so cool everything that the ward is doing to help them! You guys sound pretty busy. let me know if there is anything I can do to help. Thanks for everything Mom! I Love You! I hope you have a great week!
