Dec 29th - Christmas has Come and Went

Dec 29th - Christmas has Come and Went

Random Weekly-

A great exchange and minimal dying.


Monday-
Pretty normal day except we also went out to the store, not for shopping, but to get prices of things for an AP, for reasons I cannot say.

But while I was there, I also bought a 4L thing of ice-cream for the absurd price of $9.99 (and not a chicken pot pie).


Tuesday-
We went out to the Drury's (a member) and were going to help shovel, but they said it was too cold out (-27°C). So we went to their house with the idea of picking up some food for Christmas, but ended up getting fed, and given a mysterious Pickle Christmas tree ornament.

Played some Magic, in the evening as well.


Wednesday-
Christmas time is here! (I don't remember the rest of the lyrics..) 

We had a District Council, but it was with the Zone as a "Christmas Special" It was definitely different but still lots of fun, and a very interesting spiritual thought by Elder Robinson.

Also went 40 minutes over, like cant believe it.

And we tried to go shopping for a Christmas Roast, but it was all closed and it was only -35°c outside... (disappointed)


Thursday-
Christmas Day! 

I opened presents with my family and took a Family picture, except im in there twice! Lucky me!

Just talked with my family all day and packed for an exchange woo!


Friday-
We got up and driving to exchange!

I went with Matthews down to Peace River!
And we managed to get back without trouble besides the blinding snow storm..
And for Crum & Westergard they only slightly slipped into a ditch.. but 0 damage!

Had some very good breakfast burritos, and then we hit up the store for some Boxing Day treats!

Went knocking a little bit, and hit up this hill and went **"snowboarding" and I tried to slide down on my own, but it doesn't work well without snow pants. :(

Headed back to the apartment, to warm up and cook some steaks for Elder Matthew 6 Month Mark!!! 🎉🥳🎉        5 Months ago...

Had to go back out knocking again, and they were all catholic... kinda strange.

Did a stopby of a bajillion grey dots, and surprise surprise.. they don't live there anymore.

And had to hit up Dairy Queen ofc, no better time then when its -21°C to get ice cream 😋 


Saturday-
President Holland Died :(

We exchanged back! And went shopping for our "Christmas Dinner" and then started the salting process..

Contacted some people and a few stopbys.


Sunday-
Had church! 

Went through an contacted A LOT OF PEOPLE then got bored and moved it to another day.

And had some of the Christmas dinner! Until I started dying a little, but I'm A-O-K!


**For legal reasons, the ["Snowboarding"] was done in a safe environment and a sledding hill park, not a ski hill.

Things Happened/ Grandpa will like my photos!! :)

Things Happened / Grandpa will like my Photos!!  :-) Hi again, this week was an adventure! Almost of a life time! Because I will be back! MARK MY WORDS  Monday- Not much happened, I was recovering from the sickness last Sunday. And it was p-day with no sports happening.  But we did have dinner with the Lee's! Tuesday- We had interviews with the mission president at the stake centre that was 30 minutes away, but there was a Chick-fil-A on the way so we carefully and tactical planned our route to go to Chick-fil-A before the interviews for lunch. Had interviews, President's favorite Ice-cream flavor is Rocky Road! And on their mission board I found someone who served in Albuquerque back in 2010! We then had dinner with the Salter's! Bro. Salter is a funny guy, saying that butter is bears grease and honey is bee barf! Then went to the Rec Centre to play some floor hockey! Wednesday- We had District Council of all guys! (The sisters left our district) Then we helped with some...

Nature Walks by the River Hi.  Invite your friends! (To something, maybe my emails??) Monday We went Thrifting for our District sports.... But we got Costco! Woo! Then went shopping woo! We had dinner at McDonald's and got a kids Happy meal toy which was a Minecraft Bee! Buzz buzz! 🐝 Tuesday We went to a service, and our weekly service had us make cookies and help with pudding!

We did some stopbys and got in contact with some people, then had dinner at the Pierson's! Wednesday Honestly not really sure what happened today..

Ruh-Roh

  Howdy Yall,  Monday- We played volleyball that day, though I didn't play to long because I got bored, but that's just me. Afterwards we played football (just catching and throwing it, no tackling) but I did injure my finger from that, it was purple & pale. (Now it's just fine, for the most part :) Then we went to the driving range, and I would've played more but my finger hurt and made it hard to grip the golf club. Eventually though, we made it home to chillax, and later we had dinner at the Szalovski's House (their Polish) After, we went to the church, and I scrolled through Google photos while, Elder Winder practiced the Cello. Then we went home called the Fam, and I enjoyed listening to some Normington Audios. Tuesday- Today we helped out a member, Sis. Christensen, with some weeding of her yard, And afterwards did some Celloing at a different members house. We had dinner at the Peterson's, who were right next to Wabamun Lake, which is the biggest lake...
