so like usual, we are here at the cyber, late, and i have
basically no time. but i can briefly pass over the highlights of the
week.
first i got the package this week. ate some wheat
thins and candy, but haven't touched the oreos yet. i am kinda scared, i
just like looking at them though. everything else was good too, i'm
stocked up now and happy.
thanksgiving this week.... i forgot until right before
bed. :) i don't think i really ate dinner.... but you all probably ate
plenty for me anyways. last night we went and ate foufou at a members house,
and that was good. i pooped when i got home and next morning... that's
some good foufou :)
Caden taylor is home from his mission already?!?
wow. that's crazy about kristen.
also today we went to the foire. i spelled it wrong
last time. it was pretty cool we bought some little african stuff.
next year's Christmas presents some of them... :) i couldn't find a chess set,
but i got a few leads, and well see. benjamin, i didn't see a lion skin,
but i saw a carved elephant that was like 3 feet square, pretty sweet.
1400 bucks though, and probably weights a butt ton. there was some cool
stuff though.
fast and testimony meeting is AWESOME. i love it
when my converts get up and bear their testimonies! it's the best.
marie gave a wonderful testimony yesterday and i was so happy. she talked
about how much the gospel has changed her life and how she has come to love the
scriptures. it was amazing.
also we had a baptism saturday! eric a friend of
aime. he is great. aime too, but he
wasn't there yesterday for church.... he had to go sort out some family stuff. we're seeing him tonight though.
sunday big news!!! togo is getting their first stake!!!
oh yeah! i'm pumped, not a 12 coming but a 70. should be awesome.
making progress. vide vide hevi wo nato. that means little by
little the bird makes his nest in ewe. it's a saying they have.
thanks i've got no time left. love you all.
