Year 1, Week 17: Thanksgiving!

Not much happened this week. Our Investigators still have not come to church even though we find rides and call in the mornings to remind them. We are starting to consider to drop them. Kind of a bummer, but maybe that will kick them into shape. 

The highlight of the week was Thanksgiving. We went to a part members house. They are from Argentina and their name is Villagra. The mom is a member and the Dad is investigating the Church. They have 2 daughters who are 14 named Gabby and Tori. Twins. They are super nice and had good food. Mashed Potatoes, Candied Yams, Causa (A  Peruvian Dish), Puerto Rican Rice, Turkey, Asparagus, Bell Peppers, and Salad. I ate everything:) Even the Bell peppers! They had other family there who aren't members so we talked with them quite a bit. After that we went to another member's house. They are called the Camachos. They are from Peru. We had Chicken, Turkey, Beet Salad, and Rice!! Super American;) 

Other things that happened this week...Elder Curzon and I went on exchanges with the Zone Leaders. Elder Curzon dropped a chair on his foot last week and basically wrecked himself. He had to go with Elder Eaton on exchanges to the Urgent Care to get an X-Ray. He is now taking prescription pain killers so that is exciting. Anyway! Not much else happened. We have interviews and transfer texts this week. I'll let you know how those go! Love you!
