Snow!

So, this has been a pretty good week. After emailing last week we went to Subway (first or second time eating fast food in this area). Later that day my companion made breaded deer nuggets. It was pretty good. Later that night we had a dinner/Family Home Evening with the family who gave us all the deer meat, the Bair's. Among things, they fed us swan, smoked turkey, and breaded white perch. It was good. We then watched Mr. Kroger's Christmas with them. Meanwhile, their cat fell asleep on my lap (like it was back home). On Tuesday we had some good lessons with President and Sister Drake. Afterward, they took us to Hardees (the east-coast Carl's Jr).

On Wednesday we did a bunch of finding. Among successes, we found someone we will be teaching this coming week. Later that night, I got my companion to try Eggnog for the first time in his life. He didn't like it so much, but I thought it was way good. We also taught another member about mormon.org. Among things I uploaded a picture. Now I only need for their moderation, so it can become public (unless it already has). On Thursday we got a couple calls that proverbially threw a monkey wrench in our planned day. Among things we went and gave an investigator a blessing, and we had to go pick up another elder in our district, since his companion was waiting in his last area for a baptism. So, we took on Elder Eborn for a couple days. Also that day, I got a great package from my family. On Friday, after weekly planning and setting up tables and chairs at our branch building, I picked up my other package from home (a fiber optic Christmas tree). Later that night I set it up.

On Saturday we got delayed going to an appointment by a parade on the road in front of our house. The appointment still worked out though. That night we finally got our first snow of the season. We only got 3/4 to 1 inch of snow, but it was apparently a big thing. Luckily church still happened. On Sunday we went to the First Presidency Christmas Devotional. I thought it was quite excellent. I took a page of notes from it. I hope all of you got the opportunity to watch it.

Anyway, I am doing well. I hope all of you are too. Happy holidays!
