We had a lot of fun with our FHE group on New Years Eve! Then we had fun visiting people with the Elders on New Years day. The Roberts fed us this delicious lunch of oyster stew! Notice I am wearing slacks! Another new change!
We visited the Harringtons, Dawn Lough, had a lesson with Nancy and Kevin, and took Edmond to see cars for sale in Marshalltown.
Wednesday bright and early we had interviews with the Mission President and his wife. They asked us to take on the New responsibility of inspecting apartments in a neighboring zone. Then we had District Lunch at Carvers.
We tried to get to our of the homes of less active to let them know about the new church schedule. And we printed the reminder in French and delivered it to all the French speakers.
The sun was setting when we got to this farm in Eldora.
The road to a member's in Mountour was very muddy, but I was fascinated with the frozen swamps.
Our car was filthy when we picked up the kids from school. We washed right after, I promise!
This sweet sister was roommate to my good friend Cindy Hilton! The things we learn from Facebook !
Sunday was awesome with all but one of our Africans there! Hardy and Lea bore their testimonies, too! I had to get a picture with Elysee and Lea in their new wigs!
We took Edmond to Ames on Friday to the Honda dealership to test drive this Pilot. He called Saturday and asked us to take him back to buy it! The whole family was soo excited! Being able to drive themselves to church was awesome! And Elder Quincy doesn't have to get up in the middle of the night to get Edmond from work!
It was warm enough to walk Saturday! The pond is still frozen though.
Another cool thing was that in our French Sunday School class I was able start the discussion and communicate better than I have so far. Having discussions is going to force me into a new level of French SPEAKING.
2019 is looking good so far with amazingly nice temperatures! Life is good here in the Lord's vineyard in Iowa!
