Shelf of Fame

 On the window shelfs high above the action in the kitchen we have the Hall of Fame
We are now on #11 and #12 in the house.  I have enough windows to put about 60 more pictures.  That is a scary thought.

In the kitchen again......

 Elder P had forgotten it all ......... he had faint recollection of what to do.  Slowly it was coming back.  They all seems to laugh when they give the dough a little slap to get the bubbles out.  They give it an extra few just for good measure.
 B-E  B-E  A-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E  !!!!!  The dough was a titch over whelming for humm  B-E  A-G-R-E-S-I-V-E.
 First time after 11 months for old Elder P and his newby Elder W.
 Bread in the face?  Don't even think it Elders.....
 Ok Girls,   he still has the skill of homemade bread making.  In just a few several short weeks he will be opening bread making class for PW's..
 Pretty pleased with himself wouldn't you say?
Bread yum !  5 blessed individuals weren't hungry last night......

Thirtyish something days.....

He is headed home ladies in just a few shorts weeks.  He is doing well and working hard to make it the best.  He still is tidy and can clean up his own mess. He has a funny streak about him and and I think he would be a real catch. He has some great skills and I think he still remembers how to make home made bread.   If you are interested in communicating with him you can send me a text with your address and Ill send his.  I forgot to mention after his Momma Gwen has hugged him enough for 2 years first!!

Our Newest Residents....

 

New, but not new to the mission bungalow,  Elder P.  and his new fresh and crisp Elder W is  right out of the MTC.   He is from Logandale Nevada.  When Elder P goes home in 6 weeks , Elder W will take over and be in charge when we are gone.  Elder P is still walking around with a big smile on his face.  He is getting geared up for the final push....

New Companions

 New Resident ZL's
 Retired ZL Elder S
 Elder S and his new companion
 Elder H and new companion (baby face)
 Repeat companions Elder D and S
 New AP Elder M (right) and old Elder M on the left
 Companionless but headed home to find a new one.
 A couple of shots for his Papa M (showing his pearly whites)
Do you see the flex?
Oh Elder H I missed you the first 2 minutes you were gone.  Who is going to pack the car???????  

Instead of one leaving they both leave to open a new spot for a new trainer and greenie

 Elder H after 7 1/2 months was expected to leave but the call came that both were leaving to open a new area for a new trainer and his greenie.  I wasn't expecting Elder W to leave and so it was a quick re-.adjustment for 2 new ones in coming. Never a dull moment in this household.
 Elder H and his companion and he headed west to Des Moines.
Elder W and his new companion and he headed north to Fayette.    Transfers continue to be hard and I get so used to them being around.  I depended on these two for so much.  Elder H was my "McGiver"  he fixed anything and saw what needed to be done and just did it.  Elder W provided me with music, he could make a ukulele sound like a jazz guitar.  I'm going to miss these two.  They both have promised to come back and visit.
