Thanksgiving was wonderful. We had Thanksgiving at the Bushma's house. Our P-day was moved to thanksgiving, and they had us E-mail on Monday because the libraries were going to be closed. We were at their house from 11:30 to 4:00. It was a lot of fun. The Bushmas are probably my favorite family in this whole state. Thanks for praying that I would eat at a nice house. At first we were going to eat at someone else’s house, but they cancelled about a week before, then we were out riding our bikes. I had just used my last patch on my companions bike about a week before. We were far away from anything, so we called Br. Bushman, and he came to give us a ride to Wal-Mart so I could get a new tube. While he was giving us a ride, he asked us if we had anyone feeding us for thanksgiving, we said no, then he said, come over to our house a little before twelve on thanksgiving.
While we were there, we played catch with a football, and a couple other games. We talked for a lot of the time too. For dinner we had turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, deviled eggs, supper yummy home made apple pie, and other things like that.
Sometimes in missionary work, stuff happens that you don't want to happen. Last week Soledad had a dream were she felt she was told she had to wait and be baptized after Jugo gets out of jail. He hasn't been deported yet, but he is in jail for the time being. We taught Soledad how to pray about a dream and ask if it is a vision from God. She committed to do that. If it is a vision from God, we don't want to ask her to go against. But it also could be a dream that is meaningless or one meant to confuse her. I am praying for her and hoping for the best.
On a brighter note, we are still working with Christina, we haven’t been able to see her a lot last week because of the Holiday, but now we should be able to work with her and her boyfriend a lot.
With the fridge, if I remember correctly, the cabinet with the silverware drawer isn't connected, so it could be removed and put in the dining room next to the spot where we took out part of the wall. The wall mounted cabernets should be easy to remove. You might need to unscrew the trim, if it is connected all the way across, then the cabinet can be removed by unscrewing the screws on the inside and bottom. If you have done that and it still doesn’t come out, or if it didn't have any screws to remove, try lifting the cabinet up, then out, sometimes they use a latch in the back to hold it up that is screwed in to the wall. Hope this helped, good luck. I bet uncle Dan can help to if he still lives nearby.
I got the Thanksgiving package, and cooked up some of the chocolate cookies, then I used some of the cookies to make marshmallow sandwiches, by putting some marshmallow between to cookies and putting it in the microwave for ten seconds. They were really yummy. Samuel, I love the keychain you gave me. How did you know I'm collecting key chains. Yours is my favorite. I like how it blinks in the light. I also loved the yo-yo, the candy’s, ear plugs and all the other things inside.
Some things I want to add to my wish list, is sheet music, if you still have it I would love the sheet music for 100 years.
I love you guys.
