| Banana Split at Superior Dairy |
I finally went to the famous Superior Dairy here!!! A
gentleman in the Elders ward took us out for Hot Dogs and ice cream. We
got a banana split to share. It was big. I don't understand all the
talk about the place, but it was still fun. I'll have to take you all
there too. And yes, I finally got the package. The blame isn't on the
mission office this time, it goes on my zone leaders! I guess they had
it in their trunk and just kept forgetting to give it to me. But I got
it last Monday and have been loving it every night! Thank you for doing
that!
Guess who I met this week?! A distant relative of
ours I'm sure. Like I said, there are a lot of Sorensen's here in
Hanford and everyone asks me if we're related. There is a Kathy
Sorensen in the ward that we've been trying to stop by and see. Last
Tuesday after Zone Meeting, we went to Panda Express and there was a
lady standing in front of me talking to me asking if we just had a
meeting. I figured she was a member in the other ward because she knew
all the missionary/church terms: zone leaders, district meeting,
conference, etc. I asked her what ward she's in and she said 2nd. I
told her that's the one we're in and inroduced myself. She then said
her name is Kathy...Kathy Sorensen! AHHHH!!! She then looked at my
badge and smiled. We got talking and she asked me..."are you from
Manti?" I said my grandparents and cousins live there. She then asked
me if I know the Blackhams! I told her I went to school with one of the
kids: Jordan. It was just fun talking about people we know and finding
connections. As she was leaving she told me I have to come over and we
can talk more to see where we're related. So that's exciting. I'm
sure there are a lot of Sorensen's in Manti too, but it was a mini
blessing from God to help me smile.
This week we set a baptism date for Dion and Tianna.
Dion is the mom, Tianna is 18. I feel bad, I don't know what all I've
told about our investigators and area, but we have a recent convert
Thomas who was baptized earlier this year. We've been teaching his
family now. I feel Tianna is pretty solid for the date (March 22nd).
She's been coming to YW's, church, etc and loves it. Dion won't come
to church because she doesn't have a dress. Sad that that's what is
keeping her back. I personally think it's an excuse, but hopefully I'm
wrong. At Hannah's House I've been helping them sew pillow cases! You
should be proud of me mom! :) Ha ha.. I think today we're making
scrapbooks. I love going over there and doing crafts like that. Gets
my mind off of things.
Well I hope your week is good. Good luck Dad with your choice for
work. Be safe on your travels coming up. I will look for the letters
in the mail. Hopefully I can figure out how to do the passport thing.
I love you all am looking so forward to our reuniting in 13 more weeks!
And I know it's super in advance, but can you start questioning bishop
what he wants my topic to be when I get back? You know me and the need
for advance notice! Ha ha.. Thanks!!!!!
I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
