Wus up peeps!!

This is gonna be a short one.  So this week it snowed and since we aren't allowed to drive in snow we were stuck inside for basically 3 days.  It was the WORST!! Not fun.....  The Ward family in the ward gave us a bunch of food that could last us a week at least so that was cool.

We've FINALLY met with/ starting to meet with people who were taught by the missionaries before us.  We met Joe and were able to get his number.  He was really happy to see us and it was awesome to get to know him.  We were also able to meet the Nofsinger family on p-day (We had nothing else to do).  They are in a christian science faith.  They are a really awesome family and they absolutely LOVE the missionaries.  I got a very good feeling about them.  Funny thing actually, they know the Machias bishop's family because their kids are in the same homeschool group.  So that's definitely not a coincidence.  

On Sunday we watched the Christmas devotional with some members and had some very good peppermint popcorn.  They live waaaaay out in the boonies so we parked at the bottom of the main rode and the dad came with his truck and drove us up the rest of the rode.    lol.  On the way home it was foggy and the sky was grey but a grey to where you could see clearly.  I don't know, I just thought it was cool, just driving through the farmland in the fog. Lol kinda random 

Since I am back in the Snohomish zone, we went to the reptile zoo again.  Finally found the two-headed turtle. Don't know how I missed it last time.

Yes, Elder Huchins is 6 ft 10!

Spiritual thought: James 1:5-6:  "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed." 

Random thought:  "Tell your family you love them."  Just do it

Love yall and have a great week

also went up north to Arlington to see this stake up there that puts on a nativity scene every year

It was so cool!
