Hola FamHappy Thanksgiving! We started thanksgiving by playing the Turkey Bowl with some other Elders and member that met up to play. It was fun, even if our team lost haha. From there we went thanksgiving linner at a Spanish members house, it was delicious. From there an English member had a big dinner for their family and a couple extra people, including us! Also delicious. Then in the evening we headed over to our Branch Mission leaders house for even more thanksgiving dinner. We also got to see part of the Cowboys game, wasn't great. But the again, when is it ever? All around, a great Thanksgiving. Not as great as being yall though of course! 😉
Also this week we got to give blessings to 3 week old, premature babies! It was crazy. Aparently one of the parents' parents are Mormon, and they asked if we could go, and the parents wanted to come. So we went and we had to scrub our arms up to our elbows and then we had to wear a gown thing, and we weren't allowed to bring our phone or anything so we don't have pictures unfortunately. But it was crazy and the spirit there in the NICU was super thick. We got to reach into their little boxes and lay our hands on them. They were born at les than 2 pounds each, they were twins. Anyway, super spiritual experience.Our gas station investigator is super cool still, highlighted things in the Book of Mormon this time. Shes awesome, but didnt make it out to church this week. Hopefully next week with the Christmas devotional that'll be cool. Haven't been able to get ahold of Orlando unfortunately, we think hes still been in the hospital, but the hospital hes at now is outside of the zone so we haven't been able to make it over there. This coming saturday we have two baptisms, one with a girl that was taught elsewhere but moved here, so we get to baptize her, then we got the 15 y/o who ordered a Book of Mormon that I told you about. So be expecting pictures of that!Sorry this is so late, but I love yall!Elder Hogg
