Just Another Day

So out of every day this week there are two that really stand out above all the other amazing days. They are Saturday and Sunday! So Saturday there was a craw-fish boil cook off down at the Catholic school, so it was a small fee to get in for all you can eat craw-fish and wow that was so good, I for sure ate to much but o-well, I will live! It was just awesome there were about 20 different vendors cooking and most of them cooked some mean craw-fish! (i will put a picture in it not mine but ya) so when eating craw-fish you take the whole thing in you hands then you rip the tail off and then the head and legs. then you brake open the belly of the craw-fish and pull out the meet and eat it. Its a little bit of work but well worth it! We then went home for a min to change because in the process of eating craw-fish you kinda get messy so we changed back into a white shirt and tie (don't worry I wore the same shirt from last year's craw-fish boil) and then President Horner  picked us up to go see some people and wow that was a blast for sure! We got to see some less actives and then find some new investigators and it was just the best. Then got dinner and went home and straight to bed! Sunday we had church in the morning and we had some less actives come that we have been working with and that is always so good to see! We went out with a member in the high council to go give the sacrament to a older person and while we were out with Brother Burch we went to go see a girl I Baptized 18 months ago and wow that was cool, she has been in a hard place for the last little bit, and we were able to give her a blessing and share the good spirit with her! We then when home and had lunch, a Sunday classic grilled cheese sandwich!!! Then we went out and we saw a less active and we had a good talk with him, and wow this guy was way cool he served in the Navy and he was put in WA for the better part of his service, and I told him I was from Bellingham WA and he was like "no way I love Bellingham" so that was cool, small world! Then the next guy we saw was an investigator, and he was 100% blind! but wow what a cool guy we were talking with him for a while, and we got to hear his story about how we became blind and it was like in his 20s when it happened and he just had the best attitude about it and was being quit funny with us. We were talking about how he loved to cook and bake and my companion asked "so how do you measure then ingredients?" and without missing a beat he goes " with a measuring cup how else!!!" I was just about on the ground dying (you really have to know my comp to really understand why it was so funny) but it was just too funny! We then went to go see a older member in the ward that has been unable to come because of health and that was awesome to see her and bring her company and on our way out she gave us some Gumbo so ya bomb! Anyway my week was for sure bomb. I love this work, I can often say I have the best job, or at lest the most satisfying job, because it is truly  the best to see not just the growth in others but in me!  Anyway I love you all so much have a good week!
