Missionaries / Weather / Talents / Fun

 You might have noticed that I have not posted in a bit.
I went out of town for a week, but I have returned.
I took the above picture right before I left, meaning
to post a blog...but got too busy. Sorry.
This picture was taken on a lovely, warm, springlike day.
Our weather has been changing. The Hermanas were very
hopeful that it was spring....but alas, the weather has made
many flip-flops. They are both ready for the warm weather.
They keep asking me why it turned cold again.
I explain, "Unusual is usual for Texas."
 
 I felt very welcomed and loved
when I saw this Welcome Home sign last night....
 
 Your daughters have many talents.
They stopped in to make their own dinner this afternoon.
Sister Oh! made them some homemade tortillas.
She is making this one for me. It was scrumptious!
Sister Oh! has come a long way since her burning-rice days.
Her future husband will be so glad she went on a mission.
 
Sister Maximum's talent is very unusual.
I am trying to decide how it will benefit her in the coming years.
After demonstrating this talent, we all laughed so hard we almost cried.
 
 Her talent is being able to "cry like a baby."
Really.
She sounds just like a baby~~and it is SO funny!

The Sisters are working hard,
but they seem to be having a good time while doing so.

Another P Day

 Sister Oh! was very happy about receiving her CTR ring from her mother!
 
 And Sister Maximum was very happy about receiving
a valentine's day package from her mother!
They went to the George Bush Library today.
They rode the DART train there and back.
They got very cold,
but came in all smiles after their adventure.
 
This picture was taken last week after their meeting
on their "twin" day. At some point I walked through the house
and found this....
It looked like Sister Oh! was ironing Sister Max's back.
They are getting along very well, taking care of each other.
 
 Sister Max was cold....that is why she was wearing the pink
sweatshirt. When she saw I was taking a picture she wanted
to take off her sweatshirt for a "proper" picture.
 
 
 So, here it is. 
This picture is posed...but the other one was a natural.
The purple thing is a vibrating back massager that I
left sitting on the counter the night before.
They are working hard.
They come in every night tired to the bone.

Twins!

 Sister Maximum looked in the closet.
She thought....Is that my shirt?
She looked in her drawer.....
She found her shirt.
That was Sister Oh's shirt in the closet!
 
 They discovered that they....are twins!
They already had skirts practically the same, too.
They went to their meeting this morning dressed alike.
They report that it took them an hour to get to their meeting
in Irving this morning. They left at 8:30 a.m. and didn't
arrive until 9:30.  They are home now and busy planning
for the week.
 
I asked them if they had traced the genealogy of their
family and in-laws to see if they are also related.....
as were other sisters living here in 2013.
Maybe they will do that next P-day.

Enthusiasm

The Hermanas have been very enthusiastic about meeting their goals.
On the way out the door tonight I ran after...
then ahead...of them saying, "do something."
 They pointed ahead saying,
"Title this one--Sisters Baptize Thousands!" 
  
They are a very enthusiastic companionship.
Although I doubt they, themselves will baptize anyone on their mission,
every day brings new and interesting teaching appointments.
I am sure that thousands of lives will be changed for the better
because of the message they are delivering.
