These are wonderful, hardworking, excited-about-the-work missionaries. They welcomed us and we learned to love them immediately. Not long after this picture was taken, seven of our ten missionaries were transferred and we learned to love a new group all over again. We have really been impressed with the quality of the missionaries and are proud to serve with them. We enjoy having them come over every Sunday night to pick up the waffle batter and maple syrup that we make for them. We get to spend a half hour or so just relaxing after a busy week. This was a tradition started by the couple we replaced, and one that we happily continue. We have adopted them as our kids.
This is our second group of missionaries in our district. We love them, too. We are still making waffle batter and syrup, and to help them relax after a busy day, we will invite a companionship or two over for fruit, cookies, or even leftover chili.We are trying to give them a little touch of home. (I look like a giant next to Sister Downs, don't I?!)
This was Sister Tilley's (middle) birthday. She had already had cake with the members and missionaries at the church, so we had her come over for watermelon--yes, it is yellow! and delicious.
Aren't they adorable!
