Family!!!!  

Well happy thanksgiving one and all, It was so great to think about all of the things that I'm grateful for!!  
Heather!!  I set a goal to finish the 500 things that I was grateful for before the end of my personal study on November 27th, and I finished at about 8:58 hahaha I was cutting it pretty close, but it was A LOT harder than I thought it would be I had to get pretty creative... the 500 things included a lot including 22 individual reasons why I am thankful for Taylor Swift.  Two of my favorite things from that were. #13 "I am thankful for Taylor Swift because she's got a Indie record that's much cooler than mine." and #18 "I am thankful for Taylor Swift because she wears short skirts and I wear T-shirts" ... so yeah I got pretty creative and had a lot of fun with it, but it really did help me realized so many little things that I am truly grateful for.

We had two meals on thanksgiving, one was a lunch with ribs and all this incredibly tasting non-thanksgiving type of food... which was great!  and then we had dinner at our ward mission leaders house with his family!  They do a way cool tradition, every thanksgiving they go around the table and say something that they are grateful for, alphabetically, so starting with A, B, C.... I think you get it... but it was really cool!  

Soooo transfers calls were last Saturday, I'm not leaving but there are some big changes in our area.  We used to have 4 missionaries in our ward and the house that we are living in.  But now the other two Elders are leaving and their area is being shut down.. which basically means that we are going to be taking over their area.. so we're getting all of their investigators, recent converts, less actives and potentials and are covering their half of the ward now.. which is crazy because we aren't getting a car.. sooo we are going to be doing some pretty long hilly bike rides..... it's great.  I'm pretty excited!



TAMBA AND AIAH WERE BAPTIZED!! It was such a great thing!!  and even better, both of their non-member parents, (very supportive of their decision)  came to the baptism!!  It was incredible.  I love em to death.. I'll attach some pics 

It was so nice to hear about your thanksgiving!!  It sounds like it was just a blast!!  I definitely missed grandma's orange rolls!!  I look forward to getting to see you all in like 23 days!!!  I love you all so much!!  have a great week!!
