Cooking

Yeah the weeks are going by really fast its hard to believe myself! Yeah it got better the same day, its funny how fast i get better from stuff like that and illness. Speaking of illness how is Zach, Hope, and Parker doing? did they get better? Yeah cooking is a lot of fun when we have the time to cook, i am trying to decide what i want to make for Christmas. My companion is very talkative just not when we are working i dont know i guess he just is day dreaming or thinking about something to hard. I would send some movies to you guys because they are really cheap here but i fear they would not make it to you because they are what the states would call Legally copied...So i cant do that. maybe i will buy you all a uganda shirt but those are sorta expensive to buy. We have found another family to teach that is good, this week are are going to go finding a lot more so hopefully that pays off.  You should send pictures of the snow so i can print off some pictures. It sounds like you are going to have a White Christmas! lucky you! i know i wont :l   I love food! i still have some left from the package you sent with the camera the Mac and cheese is good i only have 1 box left of that but it has helped a lot.  i want to make cookies for my district but i cant find some of the ingredients so i am looking around but i have no idea on how i am going to get the chocolate chips...Might just have to go with out them.  Alright i will give it to my comp if i have the same comp he will love it because he enjoyes playing them the really beat up ones i have right now.  anything exciting going on? how is the lights coming on at 6 going for the 2 older ones?

Dear Braden,

Wow, I can't believe that it has been another week already.  How are you doing? Did your stomach get better?

Good thing you know how to cook or Thanksgiving dinner might have been a disaster. 

Be patient with your companion, it may just take him awhile to warm up.  I had a comp that only had a few months left on her mission and she was still so shy that she still was uncomfortable teaching the discussions.  I was impressed that she actually made it through her whole mission with as shy and nervous as she was. Have you found any more people to teach. This time of year is always hard. My comp and I set a goal to just step inside someones house it was so hard. Hope you are having better luck than that.

So we got a snow storm with big snow drifts and it blocked your car in by the fence, so dad took his car to work one day. Later that day, I got the snowblower working and dug it out.  Saturday it snowed all day an into the night and more crazy snow drifts up to 3 feet high.  Luckily, dad got up early and dug us all out so those that weren't sick could go to church.  Hope, Parker and Zach all stayed home ill, each with something different. Hopefully they are all better tomorrow.

I just found out that The Stake Relief Society is in charge of lunch for the Provo Mission Zone conference next week.  We sent lists around all of the wards for people to help out with food.  We are putting the missionary mom's in charge of making desserts.

The lady that called from the mission home requested that we have 14 long tables for the lunch and training.  Funny thing, our new stake center only has 2, the rest are all round. So, some men in the high council are going to borrow some from the other buildings. We will see what we come up with. We have sister missionaries serving in our area. They asked for people to sign up for meals to feed them but it must have gotten filled up because it never made it to me.:( Oh well, maybe next time. Keep up the good work and enjoy the things around you. 

Love you, Mom

P.S. when you get the next box, it has Christmas gifts in it. Give one to your comp. so he doesn't feel left out. One the size of a card game-there are a few in there.

Smile, it make people wonder what you have been up too.
