hello family,
I am glad to hear I was replaced
with 4 different elders!! ha we tried to do the same with the families
here with missionaries out, its was fun. our thanksgiving was pretty
awesome.
we started off going to the Stutzs house for a morning game of real
life FIFA. ha I found out that my eye foot coordination is not very
good, it was fun. then after that we drove down to the Duigiuds for
dinner. they had another family over so that was fun.
I tried to help but they wouldn't let me, I was sad. ha I devoured
that turkey and the mountain of pies and a 4 layer carrot cake....
#onlyintexas it was huge!!! I could only eat one layer. then after
checking up on a investigator we went to the O'Neals.
they have a son on a mission in California. so when we walked in the
little girl thought we were him.. it was so cute. they are so much fun.
they have a really awesome tradition, they have a pie making contest.
everyone one in the family makes a pie and puts
it on a table and every one comes in, one at a time to taste all the
pies. there were some good pies. we need to do that!!! just saying. it
was a really good thanksgiving.
Guys, its nuts I am hitting my year
mark this Thursday!!! how crazy is that, time has flown by. last year at
this time I was getting really nervous. now we are all pros at this...
well maybe yall are. I may have been out a year but there is so much to
learn. I still have a lot more to improve on. I just want to stay here
until I get it right. ha
its good to hear that everyone is
doing really well. Dad, you are a workhorse!!! one day I need to be like

dad! ha mom, keep it going, you rock!!! GGC,
glad you got home safe! GGN, happy holidays. when Is cooper leaving???

funny story of the week. Well, we had
zone meeting on Friday then we had to weekly plan. so if you know how
that goes I was really tired and exhausted. we finished planning at
about 445 and I was going to nap for 15 minutes, maybe more, cause we
were having dinner at our apartment. so as I was sitting there I
couldn't sleep. I just sat there. when 5 o’clock rolled around I felt
like we needed to go the park right next to our house.
so I didn't really want to do that cause its dinner time... but we did.
at the park there are 2 kids skating and a family at the playground. so
we go to the playground cause we think the family would be more
receptive. we get over there and as soon as we
get there they look at us and walk away... so we get some water so we
don't look like awkward goofs. so on our walk back we were thinking how
we could have talked to that mom and then we hear a loud thud! one of
the skaters took a pretty good tumble so we
go over to see if he is alright. we start talking for a good 10
minutes. they live up in Austin and don't come to that park that often
so it was cool that we got to see them. we were joking that the Lord had
to make that kid fall for us to go talk to that
family. ha
well, I love you guys so much!! hope to hear from you soon...
love yall
elder nymeyer
