I was so proud of myself because I had kept my figure looking soooo nice for so long....I don't think it will work out that way. I have had SOOOOOO MMUUCCHH PPIIEE!!!!! And I LIKE it!!! I have tried lots of different kinds, and I don't mind trying more. Just call me the pie queen from now on.
On Wednesday night we were invited to Pie Night at the
Eagars...that family that I want to grow up to be like. Sister Eager and
her mom made 12 pies that day, and 2 of them being my family's recipes:
avocado and oatmeal! Avocado was definitely the hit of the night.
Everyone was really curious about it, and you could tell they were
nervous, but they all devoured it....it was the only one completely
gone.
Thursday we had to go to Walmart to do our
shopping....they were prepping for black Friday stuff. HOLY COW!! that
is crazy. I am NOT going black Friday shopping. Nope. Not happening.
We went to the Gish's house for Thanksgiving day. They are another
favorite family here. They are just like my real family, and I feel
totally comfortable there. Sister Gish talks about me like I am her
daughter or granddaughter and their granddaughter is planning on
driving me around town in her revamped VW bug when its finished. This
family has also invited us over for Christmas day, and I couldn't be
happier about it. I sat and crocheted while Sister Nay helped cook. (I
didn't want to be another body in their tiny kitchen). We ate, and
laughed, and played Uno, and walked around the neighborhood and
looked through all the black friday adds. (They are big shoppers)
Saturday we spent the ENTIRE day finding people to
teach. I was pretty nervous about it, but Sister Nay assured me in the end I
would enjoy it. It wasn't that bad. We did find a lot, and it was a
highly productive day. The only bummer from the day was heartbreak at
the Richman home. I wont disclose any details because its really
personal for them, but I ask that you keep that entire family in your
prayers.
We visited with a couple different member families
this week, who just made my day. They were telling me about the joy
and light that I have brought to their lives. My heart melted. It made
me feel like I was actually making a difference. Thank you to Nancy Wood
and the Landry Family (especially Miguel, who is 3 years old and has a
form of autism. He wants to marry me)
I hope you all have a terrific week!!
We are going to the Monticello Temple Next Monday as a mission, so I probably wont write until Tuesday. I'm sooooo excited!
Love,
Sister Wilkins
