Dear Family and Friends,
This week went amazingly fast. Monday we had meetings from 9-5. Learned a lot of really great things that we needed to know to help the people more with their gardens, BUT a very long time to be sitting.
That evening the Meldrums had us over for dinner. They invited the Tsinniginnie family and the Hammonds. It was a friendshipping night. Lots of fun, but lots of wind, so we had to come indoors. The Hammonds have 2 girls, Piper and Prudence. Prudence reminds me of RaDawn. Cute as a bug and a huge Tom Boy. Thier son, Martin was playing with the Tsinniginnie's little girl who had long, long hair. Then I found out that the little girl was a little boy (Oops) They are letting him grow his hair out and it is really long. Thier older son is suppose to be baptized next Sat and that is suppose to be my debut at playing the piano in front of a group. SO say many prayers. PLEASE
Tuesday the new missionary came. His name is Elder Lancaster from Riverton, UT. We weeded our own garden and helped the Tunney family with thiers.
Wednesday we packaged the fittings for the lay flat or gravity flow tubing. We made up about 25 packages. Elder Olson also got a massage from a sister who is another amazing massage therapist. He was actually pain free for a while. The bone spur on his back is probably growing because he is experiencing more pain. Please keep him in your prayers also.
Later that evening from 7-9:30 the sisters worked on making clothes for the kids who are going on the Pioneer Trek in Flagstaff, next month.. They will walk 15 miles the first day and get two biscuits and broth for dinner. They haven't told them yet for obvious reasons. ;o}
Thursday Elder Olson helped with the Catholic gardening project and then we had our planting demo that evening and passed out potato and onion starts. It was very interesting to listen to Elder Seeley, then watch the people get down on thier knees and plant the seeds.
Friday we helped the Sloans, Nockidenehs, Billys, Manygoats and Cody families. The days are long, but the burdens are made light and you feel tired, but very blessed at the end of the day. I hope I can find the little goats that I took a picture of to put on this post.
Cute little goats. So fun to read all your posts and see your pictures on this blog.
