Lots of Rain

OK so what a odd week for sure!!!!!! Monday we went to Homa to kick it with the other missionaries over there and wow they have a fun group for sure, we played dodge ball, and volleyball it was fun! It also rained like I have never seen before and it was scary because my companion was driving and I was just sitting in the passenger seat there peeing my pants out of fear of going into the ditch!  Tuesday was nothing new until we got a call from our mission president and he had told us that he was worried about the storm surges (a rising of the sea as a result of atmospheric pressure changes and wind associated with a storm) because our apartment sits at 2 feet above sea level and the storm surges were going to be 4 feet, so he wanted us to drive up to Baton Rouge right then and there to stay the night (better safe then sorry right) so we did and we had a fun day up there, we got to go see some members since it was one of my old wards that I served in! Then we stayed the night and left in the morning. 

Ok so there was this fair that started Friday it was the shrimp and petroleum festival so we went and passed out cards but we really just ended up walking around and talking to the venders about what they were selling and where they were from and it was really cool, there was this one guy selling fire pits made out of old propane tanks and he would cut in really cool designs into them and one of them I wanted it was the death star and it was awesome but it was also like 3 grand  so ya!!!! but it was just so cool to see all the art.  Then we got some alligator's PO-boys it was way good, Sunday we went to church where we had 13 people in total and by 3rd hour we had 4 people that includes the branch presidency, not us but ya!!!!! All in all we had a good fun week, anyway love you all have a good week.
