A: YUP! I didn't get it... yet. I do feel like I have a cold right now, but that's all for now! I'm praying I won't get sick too, cuz staying in was HORRIBLE. So boring. But we survived. Sister merrill did have an alergic reaction to the antibiotic, she has a pretty nasty rash, so we are going to the doc today (yes bishop) to get that looked at. She never gets sick, so this is pretty hard for her. But that's that :)
Hey there!
This week was... different. Monday we went to Applebees with Brother and Sister D. It was delicious! We just got some appetizers and this chocolate ice cream made from heaven thing... sooo good. Thanks guys!! :)
Then we helped out downtown! We are pretty good friends with the people that run downtown, so we walked around and passed out flyers to the stores along the road. It was fun, and a good service project! It also gets us out in the community, so that is good! We also helped them decorate their office all Christmas like! But the best part... the train tracks are just behind the building, and the train came rolling by!! Soooo cool. It was crazy loud, and we stood outside next to the railing while it came right by us! It was awesome! I love trains.
We went to a members house for lunch, and she made freeway salad! yeah!! It took me back :) She put nuts in hers, it was interesting. But still good! Not as good as yours though, Cindy :)
I did in fact hit my 9 month mark.... NO WAY! So slow, yet so fast! We celebrated with wearing our t-shirts :) Thanks again for that. So fun!
Now as for the rest of the week... Sister Merrill got sick with strep throat and we were stuck inside from Thursday morning to today.... The only time we got out was to go get the mail. It was crazy. What did we do you may ask? Slept, did puzzles till our eyes dried out, read stuff, slept some more, ate food, and played hangman. Yeah. We ran out of puzzles on Saturday, so when Sister D. brought us dinner she bought some puzzles too! There was one that you could color after you put together :O Yes, we went a little crazy... can you tell? On Sunday though, the elders and Brother T. were real nice and brought us the sacrament. So glad :)
Thought for the week: "Normal is just a setting on the washing machine." I saw this quote and had to share it! God didn't create us to all be the same, we are all different in our own wonderful ways! So go out there and be the best you there is!
Love y'all, hope this week isn't too cold for those of you who are getting snowed on! I hope it snows here, it just won't be the same without it!
Oh almost forgot... HAPPY THANKSGIVING!! Here is a scripture to ponder on. Alma 34:38. We are to be grateful in all things at all times. Have a wonderful turkey day y'all!!! Eat lots of extra for me, and I am sure flat tara would love to attend :)
XOXO
God is good y'all

Q: What are your plans for Thanksgiving Day?
A: Some members invited us for lunch and another member for dinner... I feel fat already! But we are grateful they have invited us over. I know lots of missionaries who don't get invited at all so #blessed.

| They must have also decorated for Christmas |
Lisa Says: The above is a puzzle I sent them last Month. They liked it so much they taped it together and hung it on the wall. I was going to send them another for Christmas but maybe they won't want to be doing puzzles for awhile after this week. :)
