Back in McAllen For the Day!!

October 22, 2012

Yes mother, I have found the local Chick-Fil-A. :) It's not hard to find because it is in our area. AND unlike Utah, we have Chick-Fil-A’s all over the place down here. It makes us happy.

This week was a good week. We had to take care of some stuff so we are actually in McAllen right now. It is interesting being in my old area, but awesome at the same time. I am happy to say though that I am being very obedient and not even considering stopping by people's houses. :)

Happy to hear Dave is having fun with his airplanes. Get it in while you can Dave! It is interesting how coming out on a mission, you don't miss that stuff initially, then you hit awhile in your mission and you start to remember that one time you actually stayed up past 10:30 and you actually used to just sit. It is odd to think that there was ever a time where those things occurred! Who does that?

I don't think President has a set time for me to call Dave, but it will probably be sometime in December. We'll see. It will be different though than the Christmas call. My call to Dave will be about 10 minutes to just say bye and good luck. Then Christmas we can actually talk. Well, as much talking as one can do in 30-40 minutes.

Yes mother, I am being safe with my bicycle.

We have to take in our car to get fixed today too. Our car was an Elders’ car about a month ago and during transfers, they broke the speakers so now when we listen to music, our car sounds as if it is underwater. It was funny for 5.8 seconds, then it wasn't. So we have to take it into the dealership on our way back. Should be fun! Good thing it is still under warranty!

Nice job Annie! Way to be! I wish I could be cool like you! P.S. I decided a few days ago that when I get back, I will help you with your lawns. I still have forever away so who knows, I could still come to my senses and change my mind. :)

But family, you are all lovely! I recorded some of us missionaries playing Nerts last p-day. It was HYSTERICAL because we kept forgetting the recorder was on. It's a good hour long. :) I hope you can all understand it. And so you know, we really do love each other, even though it sounds like we are fighting the whole time. :)  Basically, we are like a big family that just yells over the top of the other people.

Notes for people:

Katie: I can't look at your blog so I need pictures! Lots and lots of pictures! And yes, I enjoy spicy foods now!

Audrey, Sami, Heather: WRITE ME! What does a girl gotta do to hear from you!

All others: You are still wonderful and should write me too.

I love you all and I will talk to you all next week!

P.S. Yes I got my Spanish mini Preach My Gospel. It is amazing! I have 6 now! :) And thanks for checking my computer!

P.P.S. Send me pictures of snow so I can pretend like it is actually the holiday season!
